My first official act arriving in Westchester country consisted of taking my computer out to check the wi-fi in our hotel room. As I opened my beloved Mac book I was ready to post that I had arrived safely at my destination.


It wouldn't turn on.


Not to mention my backpack was all moist on the inside. My mother recalled that the lady in front of me on the airplane had spilled her drink. Then we realized that the woman in front of me had spilled her drink on my bag that had my mac in it that was placed under her chair just like the flight attendants told me to do.


I got screwed over just for putting my dang bag in the right place.


I am writing this from the apple store in White Plains mall which is North of Yonkers.


FML.


But still I am excited for the journey that God has in store for me here and I am trying not to let this minor mishap effect my mood on the entire situation.


Welcome to NY.


10 reasons these ladies are the greatest.

Be Jealous.


A tarantula paid me a visit this morning. It was probably the size of two quarters.


I was still in my Pajamas of course. Needless to say I was running around in a large t shirt and cowboy boots (protecting my feetsys) being a chicken while my mom tried to throw it outside... That didn't work, she couldn't catch it. We smushed it...


RIP nasty spider who invaded my humble abode.


Recently I have been enjoying some old classic movies. Jayme and I had a classic movie marathon and watched Meet Me in St. Louis and An Affair to Remember. They were SO great. I have also been watching Breakfast at Tiffany's and Sabrina with Audrey Hepburn. I love how New York was in the old days. I wish women were still that classy.

Tonight Alex, Elizabeth, Katie and I went to get sushi and saw Little Shop of Horrors at lyric!


It was an excellent time with good friends.

I haven't really been doing anything that exciting recently except watching excellent movies. But since I filled the blog up with movie recommendations I thought it would be a little obsessive to continue.


Congratulations to my two best friends in the whole world on bid day. Emma is a Tri Delt and Jacki is a Chi O. I know God will use you both to change the campus of OU. Sometimes I wish I was going to be a part of that.


Eight days left.




Today I saw The Time Travelers Wife with Jayme. Jayme loved it. I kind of loved it. But it was definitely romantic and Rachel McAdams is pretty much my favorite!







While we were seeing the movie, during my favorite part (I love the previews) we saw a commercial for a great movie with Sandra Bullock. And for those of you who know.. I freaking love Sandra. Jayme and I both cried during this preview.








My precious friends Katie and Lauren came up with a genius idea!


CHECK IT OUT!


Help contribute to God's plan, help every girl feel like the beautiful creation they are.

This is the second time my camera has broken during an awesome photo opp. Not to mention that I just got it back from the fixer place like literally 2 days ago and I have only had it since Christmas.


Whatever you do don't buy the Nikon touch screen camera, I just looked on the website and it isnt even on there, I bet they discontinued it... A friend also told me that two people she knew had the same thing happen to them. FML. I don't know what to do with it, I need a new camera but need to get rid of this one.


Oh how material things make me tick.


PS, the photo opp was of a bum in a sleeping bag knocked out at the splash pad at Andrew's park.


Today I picked out a quilt from my mother's fabulous quilt collection to take to NY. Despite the fact that I will be needing an intense comforter underneath it for the cold cold nights, it is the most awesome funky quilt ever.

This quilt plus my memory foam pillow with my special kangaroo pillowcase plus my blanky...

I will be a happy girl come Fall.


Tonight Jayme Bee and I had a nice dinner at Victoria's (my favorite restaurant of all time).



The pasta was so yummy as always and Jay even forced me to eat stuffed mushrooms, which I was hesitant about but turned out to be magically delicious.

Then we tried to go to our beloved Cuppies and Joe but they closed too early and wouldn't let us in.


It was a tragic endeavor but we redeemed ourselves by trying "Sara Sara Cupcakes". Which I admit were pretty dang tasty, but it just wasn't like our Cuppies.

The night was magical full of food and fun. After all isn't that what life is about ;)

Today I started packing up my clothes and stuff. How surreal is it that I am  leaving in exactly two weeks? This morning Emma and Jacki moved in to their  dorm at OU. It is so weird that we are all moving out and leaving the nest!

I am super excited to start my adventure in New York. I am realizing that I have  way too many clothes and so I only have to take a select few... Rough stuff. I hope  my picture frames make it through the luggage check and beyond. I used a heck of  a lot of bubble wrap on them.

I have to hand it to who ever invented those air tight giant zip lock bags. GENIUS.

I have to say that packing wouldn't be as much fun if I was not blasting She &  Him.

Dinner with my Bee tonight!


Back to packing!

Yesterday Jacki, Tanner, Brian and I went camping! We went to the Wichita Mountains in Lawton, OK! It was loads of fun setting up camp, making a fire, and even tossing the frisbee (which I am no good at..).

At night we had to leave camp because the dang racoons were scratching at the truck... So we slept in the car outside of a Loves... Worst sleep of my life.


The next morning we ate poptarts and drove around while Jacki and I slept..

The boys surprised us with paying for everything as our going off to college present! It was such a lovely time with great people that I love dearly and will miss with my whole heart. Thanks for a GREAT camping trip and friendship that will never be broken!


Now I am sitting with a giant cup of tea at my cozy house listening to wonderful She & Him.. Being happy. God is so good.



I would highly recommend to all the excellent movie 500 Days of Summer to anyone. It was an amazing depiction of a modern relationship and all the things that that implies. I adore Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt . This movie is truly one that every person can relate to at some point in their life. Lets just say I freaking loved it!


500days







I would like to acknowledge that I am sane because of these beautiful ladies. They are my loves. I could die happy because  I now know what true friendship is all about.
