HE GOT MY HEATBEAT RUNNIN' AWAY

HE GOT MY HEATBEAT RUNNIN' AWAY

 After about a 16 hour drive, a night in a hotel, and seeing family in Philadelphia, I finally made it to New York. Unfortunately the weather called for rain for the first week I was here. I made an oath to not eat anywhere I would typically eat if I was in Florida. This hasn't been a problem since there are so many different eateries in New York... all have been amazing so far. The same goes for coffee. The first coffee place I went to was Gregory's Place in midtown manhattan's garment district. The caramel macchiato was delicious. Since my mom was in town for a day to help me settle in, I took here to some places I remember going to when I came for Spring Break. A trip to Madison Square Garden meant seeing a 3D head in the middle of it. 

Since I had a rest day before my internship started Wednesday, I needed to cross the first thing on my list of 'Things to do in New York'... see the Alexander McQueen exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Luckily my friend who moved up here a month before me was able to go with me. Even though I had to wait 45 minutes to get inside, it was totally worth it. Even though pictures were prohibited, I secretly took pictures with my iPhone (coming soon). Despite all the rain, the city has been amazing. My internship has officially started, but I'll give more details on that soon. I can't wait to see where the next 11 weeks will take me!

GOODBYE FLORIDA, HELLO NEW YORK

GOODBYE FLORIDA, HELLO NEW YORK

The time has finally come. The one thing I haven't shut up about in months. In a couple of hours, my mom, sister and me will be driving (yes I said it...driving) to New York City. We have a little pit stop on the way in Philadelphia, but it is still a long 16 hour car ride. The past two weeks, my days have been filled with the hot sun rays whether it be by a pool or a ocean. You are probably thinking 'Who would give that up?'. But ladies and gentlemen, I've lived in Florida my whole life and giving up the summer sun will be hard but I know in August I can get right back to it. It might suck not being able to get up at 10 a.m. and go straight from pjs to a bathing suit, but I have an internship that I could never pass up in a city I am dying to live in. I will probably be away for awhile, but when I come back my blog post are going to start looking different. I'll mainly be highlighting my outfits, what I did during my internships, and life in the big city. 

NEXT TIME I'LL BE BRAVER

NEXT TIME I'LL BE BRAVER

Despite the fact I've been home and haven't had anything to do besides be with friends and bake in the sun, I've neglected this blog. I start my internship in New York in a week, and I am already getting company emails... which kind of makes me feel more legit. I'm excited to see people be daring with their style, like these neon color pants. While I could never pull it off, seeing others who can is awesome. Hopefully living in New York for 3 months will let me discover my own personal style.
