nyc in photos

i've spent the last week bunking it up with amborambo in her apartment in new york. i'm so amazed by my sister and how well she knows the city after being here only a short while! her roommate is so much fun and her apartment is really really cute! i think she's going to have such a fun year filled with roof parties and strolls in central park- what most people could only dream of!

over the last week i've learned a few important things:

1. dont always assume the worst when you see bones on the sidewalk in harlem. they're just from the fried chicken store next door.

2. i have a weird smile in every picture taken. possibly just in everyday life too?

3. shopping day's are only momentarily interrupted with throwing up from food poisoning in the chipotle bathroom.

4. facetime is more fun when you're pulling faces and the nieces and nephews get to kiss you goodnight.

5. i miss pomegranate frozen yogurt more than diet coke and possibly my wardrobe.

6. i can't take pictures of people. of buildings. of flowers. of cute children. of anything really.

7. amber makes me laugh harder than anyone else- always at the worst times.

don't worry everyone. we took a few normal pictures for cathy. a few...

last night

i had a dream.

obviously, for some completely rational reason i flew home to ut for the day

i don't at all remember why i did that....

i do however remember thinking oh how wonderful now i can grab all those things i was wishing i had brought out here to dc with me!!!!

so quickly i ran around the house and gathered those ESSENTIALS:

-a pillow

-my silver heels

-zesta saltines

now if this dream proves nothing else, i must say i am clearly

an excellent packer.

have i told you i'm going to london? yep. next month i leave to spend the semester in the uk and i am terribly excited. i'm nervous because i actually don't know anyone else in the byu program, but i know i'm going to meet some of the most amazing girls, and i cannot wait.

have i told you the week after i get home from london i'm going on another semester abroad? yep. this is a global marketing program through the business school, so i'm expecting it to be quite different from the byu london center, but i'm also beyond excited. it starts in new york and goes to japan, china, italy, switzerland and france. we visit major corporations and learn from their marketing strategies. i can't think of anything better.

my summer is going to be the most amazing time of my life... now all i need is for it to hurry up and get here!
