The 7 Most Instagrammable Walls In LA

I'm pretty sure I just made up the word "instagrammable"...

The 7 Most Instagrammable Walls In LA

Okay, so like every other college student, I am very very low on funds (thank you 3am Taco Bell runs and that manicure I just had to have!).

And unfortunately, I am the definition of "champagne taste on a beer budget".

These two factors thrown on top of just coming home from a semester abroad filled with traveling every weekend = TROUBLE.

I am so stuck in this place of missing my days of doing fun and exciting things while I lay in bed and eat the same kind of sandwich I've made for the past 2 weeks.

SO I went further into my misery and began looking at old pictures from my last year of traveling to Texas, Los Angeles, Maryland, Chicago, New York City and all over Europe and noticed that I have this weird thing with taking pictures in front of and simply of cool walls.

I am drawn to cool backgrounds, murals, wall art, and anything that is "aesthetically pleasing".

So in order to trump my desire to be out exploring, I started researching the most Instagrammed walls and narrowed my search down to Los Angeles (because it's my fave place!) and this is what I came up with!

The Paul Smith Wall

Located in West Hollywood! I actually have a picture in front of this one!

The "Made In LA" Wall

Located in Melrose

"Angel Wings"

Located at St. Regis Wine & Liquor, 8401 W. 3rd St. (at S. Orlando Avenue), Beverly Grove


The Love Wall

Located in Culver City


Polka Dot Wall

Located in DTLA Arts District


Bleeding Hearts

Located on Abbot Kinney in Venice (I also have a picture here!!)


Mondrian Wall

Located in Mid-City


I thought this might cure my traveling blues, but now I'm just feeling sad that my Instagram game is lacking. Oh well, until next time LA!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

It's easier than you think.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
