I hopped off the plane at L.A.X.

With a dream and my cardigan

Welcome to the land of fame excess,

Am I gonna fit in?

Jumped in the cab,

Here I am for the first time

Look to my right and I see the Hollywood sign

This is all so crazy

Everybody seems so famous


Yeah well, this is kinda what happened but instead of my cardigan I brought my vlog camera and this is actually not my first time in LA. I order an Uber while trying to collect my belongings. Usually, when I stay in LA it's in a hotel and for a couple of days to do business. However this time I'm here to stay.

I should probably introduce myself, my name is Brooke Aryn Ray I'm 20 years old and 'instafamous' damn I hate that word but I guess that's what you call it when you have 9 million followers. Three months ago I also started a youtube channel where I share even more of my life. It's been going pretty well so that's why my manager suggested me moving to LA would be the move.

I must admit that I'm actually shitting my pants about this whole moving to another city thing. Anyway, perhaps  a smoothie will distract me from all of this worrying 'being all alone in a new city without any friends or family' kinda thing.

My Uber drops me off in front of my apartment complex, I spot this 'Body energy club' shop that is advertising fresh smoothies, just as if it were meant to be. I must admit that eating a burger sounds so much more appealing right now, but I had junk food yesterday and I don't want all the hard work at the gym to be for nothing. I walk in and look at the menu while waiting in line.

"I woke up, was feeling a little slow. So I just went to go get SWOLL at the gym and now I am in need of some fresh, delicious protein, can you help me out with that Mary? Thanks ." My eyes glide up to the man that's ordering, I know that voice...

"What can I get you miss?" When the lady asks me about my order the tall, broad, muscular guy turns to me. His blue eyes glitter in the light and at the same time his lips curl into a smirk.

"A coconut protein shake with mango and extra matcha powder please." I say without taking my eyes off this beautiful man.

Well damn! That's Logan Paul. I'm pretty sure he recognizes me too since he does follow me on Instagram but he's difficult to read.

"Good choice, You're Brooke Ray right?" Ha! I knew it.

I smile.

"Yes I am, do you want to take a selfie or-.." I tease him.

"You know we've met before right?" He chuckles.

"Vaguely?" I'm sure he has a big ego which makes messing with him even funnier.

"Ohh snap, she feistyyy!" He yells.

I smile, give him a cheeky wink, grab my drink and walk out of the shop making sure to swing my hips on the way out. I feel his eyes linger on my body and enjoy the attention, I always enjoy the attention.

Across the street, my apartment, empty with merely a sad mattress decorating the bedroom. This is depressing...

I change into something a bit more comfy before I sit down on this lonely piece of furniture. Let's post an Instagram picture (top photo). I decided to give it the caption: 'Leaving for LA, and this time I'm here to stay'. ugh I know it's cheesy...
