9 “Gram”-Worthy Places To Visit In LA
Destiny Hernandez

If you are stuck at school or work during the week and can't find the time to enjoy your time in Los Angeles, look for some places to visit during your weekends where you can share your memories with the world!

Whether you've been raised in LA or are visiting LA for the summer, this is the best time to get those pictures flowing onto your feed!

1. Griffith Observatory

At the Griffith observatory, you can take pictures outside with the view of LA behind you, or inside with models of the planets all around you! Visit the observatory to find some of the best views in LA.

Plus, the observatory has several shows you can buy tickets for to learn about the stars.

2. Venice Canals

This is a wonderful place to visit. You can either walk across the bridges or enjoy the residential views from the water.

Either way, at sunset, this is a beautiful place to be.

3. Santa Monica Pier

The Santa Monica pier is filled with food and fun! There are caricature artists, street performers, and delicious bacon-wrapped hotdogs…and that's not even touching on the rides or restaurants. Join fellow Angelinos in enjoying the atmosphere of the pier. And once you've walked the pier, go down to the beach or head towards the city to visit the third street promenade!

4. The Last Bookstore

The Last Bookstore is well known for its flying books and book arch. Visit the bookstore for older and newer books, and then take a walk around DTLA.

5. OUE SkySpace

If you visit OUE Skyspace, you can slide down the side of the building and capture your expressions on both the entrance and exit sides to get the best photos!!

6. LA's Secret Stairs

Back in the day, there were tons of staircases connecting different places in LA where people could get to work and/or school. Some of these staircases still exist and are open for the public.

Visit the one off of Highland behind the Hollywood Bowl or the Beachwood Canyon stairs for great views of LA!

7. Getty Center or Getty Villa

These museums have amazing photo-ops all over. Show off your photography skills and change the typical angles.

8. The Broad Museum

It's safe to say every museum has its own personality and tons of photo ops! Visit the Broad for the mirror room and take a photo with the best view—you!

9. Walt Disney Concert Hall

This place is wondrous. You can take a self-led or a guided tour through the concert hall. It's architecture and design is just amazing. You can take photos inside or outside, but some of the best photos are along the patios of the hall.

Nearby you can find Grand Park, where you can take more photos, and Grand Central market, a great food hub from different places!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
