Hi, I'm Diana Lazarte. I'm a native New Yorker. I started this blog in January 2010 when I moved to LA. I want to share my thoughts and experiences while on this amazing journey.Links

I had a great day in class. I feel really good about my work. I’ve come so far from when I first moved to LA a year ago. The exercises I do in class are so tedious and seemingly boring but they have really taught me so much. I have advanced so much by trusting the process and sticking with them no matter what. I’m really excited for the future. I am finally starting to get a taste of living on stage and being truthful. It’s exciting! I love my class and am so thankful to have an amazing teacher who inspires me and motivates me.
The world lost a good person on Friday night. He was my co-worker, a good person, just living his life, making ends meet, spreading love, making people smile, and working towards being the best he could be. On Friday night he was shot in the back on his way home…
From the time I spent with him, I can say he lived his life. I always admired his attitude and freeness. He was uncensored, genuine, happy, and fearless. I would watch him sometimes and wish I had that thing he had. It was liberty. His attitude was contagious. If you were down, you were suddenly laughing and smiling.
I keep asking myself WHY was he taken from the world at 30 years old. I’m a big believer that we are all here on a journey to learn lessons and become better people. Is it possible that he reached that spiritual awakening that we are all here for? What happens after that? Maybe there really is a heaven. He’s probably in heaven.
Arrived to Los Angeles at 10:30AM from NYC - great flight, tried the new Jet Blue PopCorners kettle corn chips, yum.
Went to brunch at Hugo’s restaurant in West Hollywood, best gluten free pancakes ever!
Afternoon hike at Griffith Park with the love of my life. Watched the sunset from the top of the mountain - beautiful burning pink sky, LA lights, cool night, amazing!
Whole Foods run - grabbed a quick little bite and indulged in some delicious Coconut Bliss ice cream, yummmmmness!
20 minute hot shower…ahhhhh
Snuggling by the couch watching Seinfeld season 5
Thankful for today! I love right now!
Listening to Ayer by Gloria Estefan and missing my family so much…warm tears are running down my face as I type this…I just want to remember this moment because sometimes I take my family for granted…I can’t wait to go home in December…I can’t wait to hug/kiss my mom, brother, and Odie…If it wasn’t 4:30am in New York right now I would call my mom but I don’t want to freak her out…I love my family so so much…I’m out of breath….it’s bed time.

It’s all around me. why do i push it away? I like to keep my distance. Why am I such a chicken? I protect myself. What am I so afraid of? I pretend to be tough. Why do I hide? It’s been 27 years, that’s why.
