New York....New Yoooorrrk.


I just came back from a weekend in New York and although things didn't work out how it had planned, I'm really glad I went. just need to ensure I come back. NYU was a beautiful school, so big, and so spread out, which was actually fun because I saw all kinds of fun things over blocks and blocks. The bohemian chic sandals and floral skirts met the tight jeans and indie-kid hair cuts of the boys and girls walking to classes. It was the last day of law school sessions and so I didn’t get to sit in on any classes, but I saw students in their element, studying in the library, visited a few floors in both Vanderbilt Hall and the second Hall of NYU for law school classes. Learned how to finance my education by conserving money from the director of student financial aid with an impromptu appointment. How lucky am I!!! I still don't really have any pictures from this lovely trip, but I pulled this one out from a happy hour I stopped by a few weeks ago for a Marketing Manager who recently quit. This is the happy look I get when I'm around great company, and or a location that inspires me to do more for the world. So, I figured it would be appropriate for this posting. After all - I had it all this weekend. Political conversation with intelligent friends, a reunion with old high school buddies, latin dancing, law school, a big city, a little rain, a little sunshine, people-observations of the best kind, jumbo cheese pizza with garlic, book shopping at Shakespeare & Co...Does it get better? A few vodka-red bulls and some adventure later...I had a blast. And some of the best memories I have from these just three days are all in my head. Those smiles aren't captured on film. 35mm or otherwise. Because some of the debacle is just living.
