New York bound yet again...
Family friend’s party on NYE and hopefully getting to see people I didn’t get to see while snowed in around Christmas :)
Spent the last 2 days in MD totally redoing my living room…it looks awesome, can’t wait to get the old furniture sold and out so we can put the finishing touches on the room!

Day 28: Something that you miss.
I miss the closeness of a few of my oldest friends. We have known each other for 8+ years, we know each others ins and outs but let stupid things like boyfriends, school, work, and distance get between us.
It hurts me when my phone calls go unreturned and my texts aren’t answered, yet when shit hits the fan I am expected to be there.
I miss being part of a 2 way street. I miss being...
Currently my dad is whipping his hair back and forth while driving to the grandparents…ohh being home :)
Day 27: A problem you have had
I problem I have is a problem I am currently having as well.
I have had an ear/sinus infection combo since March and NO ONE can figure it out.
I’ve been on 2 types of steroids since August, 4 types of Antibiotics since March and they make me 1) bloated 2) nauseated 3) fat. I have no urge to workout when my ear / head / face is throbbing. ZERO.
I actually have zero motivation to do much of...

Day 26: What kind of person attracts you.
None of my boyfriends have looked remotely alike, so clearly I don’t have set in stone physical traits that attract me.
I (generally) am attracted to taller guys with a little more meat on their bones than I have on mine. I’m 5’8 and while that is not gigantic, I swear the male population is shrinking fast.
I like pretty eyes and a little bit of muscle is nice.
I am attracted...
Day 25: Someone who fascinates you and why
My little cousin Emilie.
At the age of 19 she has attended 2 years of fashion design school, walked in NYC Fashion Week all by moving away from home to a big city where she knew no one and had/has money struggles.
I think I am mostly fascinated by this because for most of my younger years I wanted so badly to be a fashion designer (I have notebooks upon notebooks of clothing designs to show...

So I took today off...
with the intention of going to NY immediately after my 850am drs appt…instead I spent the day on and off puking while going from my bed to the toilet. I hate migraines. And I hate my ears hurting. And I hate my sinuses hurting. I hate them worse when they hurt all together.
Now I’m feeling better and just had some pasta….so if that successfully stays down I will hit the road....

Reblog if you want your followers to ask you...
Last work day of 2010.
Thank goodness.
Day 24: Your favorite movie & what it's about
This was hard for me because I have 4 favorite movies of all time: Newsies, Goonies, A Bronx Tale, and Boondock Saints.
I think the winner is Newsies.
IMDB says this is what it is about:
July, 1899: When Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst raise the distribution price one-tenth of a cent per paper, ten cents per hundred, the newsboys, poor enough already, are outraged. Inspired by the...

Had sushi with 2 of my sisters last night...
it was delicious and I had a lot of fun just catching up and talking openly about any and everything. Hours can fly by without us even noticing because we are just having a good time(until the waitress stood over our table like hey are you leaving already)

Dear UMBC Professors,
What the eff is the point of having a blackboard site if you do not update the grades at all during the semester? Useless.
Just bought this jacket...
I hope it does better in the biting wind than my North Face. I thought I was done dealing with real winter when I moved out of NY!
Day 22: How have you changed in the last 2 years
I am officially a college graduate and a full time working professional.
I trust less.
I ask more questions.
I treat little things as big things.
I am more fiscally responsible.
I weigh more and work out less.
I have fewer “friends” and more true friends.
I am worse at keeping in touch.
I am more patient.
I am less understanding.
I look before I leap.
I overanalyze instead...
Day 21: One of your favorite shows
