Where were you?

Let's get back to Thursday. Skip ahead if you'd like to hear about my where were you when you heard the news.

Yankees game with Ali, Logan, Jonas, and one of his friends. Ali and I agreed we've got to try to make this a twice a month thing because it was such a blast. Only 6 stops on the 4 train uptown, then you hope right off in front of Yank Stadium. Such a fun memory.


The next pic is of my Christmas presents from Santa for when my over the weekend guests come. If you're planning on coming up and staying with me get excited:

Amanda and Nathan were my next visitors! We went out for some delicious food with Ali, Logan, and her rooms Jess. So delicious.

Saturday we had brunch and walked around in TriBeCa then shopped all around the area. Had dinner at Smith & Mills. Best meal of the Weekend. Hands down. Those burgers (very burgers) were stupid good. If you to go to one nice restaurant while here, id pick this place. Quaint space, unique decorations, food was spectacular. Oh and the waitress asked if we heard of the place from Jesse and Nathan, and we said, "you mean Jared and Nathan? As in kings of Leon?!" She said that is their favorite restaurant and they come in all the time because they live right around the corner. Highlight of our Weekend of sure.





Sunday we had a nice brunch at a place Diana recommended to me which was also fantastic. We shopped off union square on fifth avenue. I had to have Amanda remove me from the free people store because it was overwhelming how much we wanted to buy. Can somebody say...bday ideas...??? It is officially my birthday month now!! I can't believe I've already been here four months as of tomorrow. It has passed by so quickly. As we headed back to pack Amanda up to leave, I noticed a paparazzi standing in front of the Ganzevoort. I told Amanda and Nate we should wait around SMS see who he is waiting to snap a picture of, and who else but Christina Aguillera. The cheesier the celeb, the better sighting, I'd say. Amanda and Nathan hated our celebrity spotting as they wanted to see someone better ha, but I laughed pretty hard at it as I thought it was pretty hysterical!! Not every day you get to see someone like that, even if it's not the Kings of Leon themselves.

Who can name this car?


we were shopping for our future (way future) mini men babies (i was just going to say mini men, but I thought id be more clear just to not cause any confusion) in the baby section at all saints.


Da delancey bruddas! What movie?


Madison Square park. Can anyone explain why this giant human head is in the middle of the lawn? And those people aren't dead they're just resting on a nice day...at least I hope so


And how could we forget amanda's super lovely shot of her face that she put on my phone background (still there). Creep or beautiful? Creepily beautiful. Or beautifully creepy. You pick Amanda.


Now getting back to the weekend. And where in was when I heard the news. After Amanda left, I soon hopped in bed to get me a full nights sleep. My roommate Ashley came in and woke me up about two hours after and told me the news. She told me there had been a leak from somewhere in Washington and that Obama was about to make an address. I wish I'd been more awake to hear it, but I did think Obama did a nice delivery. I'd rather not start getting political as this blog is not about pushing any buttons, but I am so proud of our country, our President, and those heroes of yesterday, some might be named and many many more not. But thank you all so much for the years of work dedication to bringing Osama to justice. We must not neglect to acknowledge the people who dedicate their lives to doing these behind the scenes jobs, because you'll never see them on CNN, but they are what makes this happen. It does not seem right celebrating a human beings death, but to know the victims of all the lives lost have closure and see justice is a beautiful thing.

Many hearts and Happy Genna Month. (sorry if it's your birthday in may too, it's just what I call it!) I'll be counting down the days to my birthday...

Countdown to my Birthday:

23 DAYS


Oh and this super long post is for you pop. Love y'all.
