California 190

Arrived in San Francisco around 6 pm on July 17th. Maybe its just this city but I get intense spikes of anxiety being here. Im staying with a friend for 2 weeks and he lives near Japantown and Cathedral hill. Its amidst all the chaos and bustling of the city. You can hear honks straight ahead, construction to the east, and sirens behind you. I try to enjoy the hecticness and thrive in the chaos of a city like this but I can’t seem to find myself attracted to this way of living well at least not for now.

I feel a bed sleep is different than a sofa sleep and what I mean is that sometimes sleeping on a sofa for example sleeping at a friend or family's house why does the couch all of a sudden look so fucking comfy. Well, that’s how i feel with the sofa ill be crashing on for the next two weeks. The first night was amazing i slept like a baby only to wake up and receive news that four cars were broken into in the parking lot my car is parked in. I walk down to the lot to check on my car and right in front of me are 2 cars’ rear windshields shattered. Wild stuff here in San Francisco.

I have yet to take my car on a camping trip so possibly ill be in Lake Tahoe in a few days im pretty restricted on the activities i can do so ill stick to hiking and relaxing which is something ill come to appreciate when my job starts in August.
