Because, New York Part 5

You know for only being in NYC a few days, I sure have a lot of 'parts'.  But that is who I am as a person, a lot of 'parts' with a very loud mind but quiet-er demeanor.  I love me.

ANYWAY- 


I ended on Thursday night, after seeing my fabulous Broadway show!


Friday morning rolled around.  I slept HARD Thursday night.  I am not one to sleep through people bustling around a hotel room, I generally wake up.  But I woke up at 10:00AM! My best friend had already headed to work for the day and the other two were almost ready for the day! I jumped out of bed and felt so bad for them not waking me, they said I was sleeping face planted into my pillow and they didn't want to disturb sleep that hard, ha!  Plus, we had only met the day before so, I get it, they didn't know if they should wake me or not.



But anyway, I threw myself together and we headed out to find bagels, and wanted to have "Breakfast at Tiffany's".  The bagel hunt was hard!  We couldn't find any, I am sorry, we are in NYC and there aren't bagels?  People must be watching their carbs I guess...anyway we finally found bagels, and coffee and headed to 5th Ave. To eat our breakfast, and of course, capture it on our iPhones' camera.  



We then headed to our first Subway experience to go over to the meat packing district! So much fun.  We had lunch at Catch, fabulous place.  We then explored the West Village, Chelsea Market, Meat Packing District. We walked to the Hudson River and could see the Freedom Tower for the first time and New Jersey!

We then headed to the subway after a day of exploring Meat Packing.  I wanted to see Macy's on 34th street, because, New York.  Not only did we get to see the most amazing Christmas window displays, decor, but the Empire State Building too! Heaven.

SO this post is basically a photo album...... you are welcome.  After we explored all of the above...exhausting but amazing, we went back to the hotel to shower and wait for our friend to return so we could plan our dinner outings and festivities of our Friday night!




Couldn't beat seeing this sight!

Because, New York Part 2

That right there is my very first glimpse of the city from my cab! At this point, as you can imagine.  I am screaming.  I don't care that I got an hour of sleep, and it wasn't even REM cycle sleep, it was sitting up, in an airplane, sleep.  NO BUENO.  But that could not take away from how gleeful I was feeling.  If my cab driver spoke more english I would have been very obnoxious and asked a billion questions, instead I texted my friend, who was at our hotel, getting ready to go to work as he was there for work until Friday.  I am sure he was laughing at my excited texts as he has been to New York several, yes SEVERAL times.  Ahh, this city could never get old though.  Much like LA, many areas, towns and places to explore and see.  I had an agenda, I knew exactly where I wanted to go and what I wanted to see.  I just had no idea where anything was but I am just fine heading out and seeing and doing.  Unlike LA, you ...

A Letter to You

Dear                      , This is a letter to whomever it concerns.  It is a letter to my younger self, to my future self, to my friends, to my family, to the people that I adore with all my heart, to the people that I want to see the light, to the people that have come and gone, to anyone that has the patience to put up with my ADD writing. Almost 3 decades in this world and what have I learned?  How does one even start this. Boys are annoying when you're 16, they're still annoying when you're 28, however you can definitely tolerate their behavior with some experience under your belt. "Hooking-up", has several meanings. If you have morals, stick with them but cut loose from time-to-time.   If you want to be happy, you have to do what will make you happy.  If that means giving up some HUGE THINGS, then that means giving up some huge things. If you love someone, be with them. Be brave.  All it...

Currently- Edition 2

Currently-Edition 2 Two weeks later, I have been 31 for 14 days, I have had the WORST cold for almost 1 week, I went to North Carolina and back and it is NOVEMBER 1st!!! WOOHOO! You know what this means...Fall is in FULL SWING (officially we 'fall back' in a few days), time to break out the boots, scarves, coats, flannels.  Put away the Halloween decor and break out the in-between Halloween and Christmas decor (which for me is one in the same...I put out "winter" decor, I'll do my tree a little later on.  And drinking hot drinks, and quite possibly attempting to add a Christmas playlist into your Pandora shuffle just for a light preview.  So now, day 1 of November, here are the 'currently's' happening! Drinking My body is begging me to drink water, water and more water.  But on the first day of November, I splurged on a fancy (free thanks to earned rewards!) Starbucks drink, it was my go-to in college, Grande Soy White Chocolate Peppermint M...
