first day of classes
So today I basically conquered by first two classes! I started the day with my English class Creative Nonfiction at noon. There were only about 15 people in the class, 10 of them being Presidential Scholars like me. The class was only 2 hours long compared to my usual 3 hour classes, but I have the other hour tomorrow. Although the class seems really interesting and the professor is cool, these 2...
madness
So much is happening so quickly!
Yesterday we went to the Lincoln Center to rehearse the choreography for the Fashion’s Night Out fashion show on September 7. When we signed in, we were each given a tee shirt/top and had to wear them, thus destroying our perfectly planned ensembles. Then we were lined up on the steps by color and started rehearsing. The concept was great; of course, the...
TOMORROW I’M GOING TO THE LINCOLN CENTER TO HELP WITH FASHION WEEK REHEARSALS!
I am beyond excited. Yesterday we went to play bingo in the caf after a long day of orientation activites. Of course I didn’t win. It’s definitely rigged. But I don’t care, because at the end Rachael’s friend Jamilla came up to us and told us that the SVCS (Student volunteer something...
rain can't ruin my parade
I’m long overdue for a blog post.
Saturday I moved in to my new home in New York City. My room is actually pretty great, as is the view out my window.
Yeah that’s the Empire State building.
The first couple of days here it was scorching hot as there is no AC in my building, but now i am slightly happy there isn’t. I love the breeze coming through my open windows. And I love...
ohheyitserin asked: i just wanted to inform you that we are going to have a skype session your first day of school. and talk about everything.
kbye.
kbye.
i can't do well when i think you're gonna leave...
but i wanna try.
My room looks like a tornado went through it. Clothes are strewn everywhere, half-full boxes line the floor, and things are just everywhere. It’s weird insane to think that in three days I will be moving into my new home, in New York City. I’m ready, I know I am, but the fact that I am going to be in a city completely different than what I’m used to, with no one...
be envious
This morning I went to Massage Envy because I’ve had a gift card since Christmas. It was pretty much the most relaxing thing ever.
The end.

Fashion's Night Out
Today the official event listing for Fashion’s Night Out was finally released, and anticipation is building. As you may know, FNO is an international event held on September 10 during which retailers are open late for parties, celebrity appearances, sales, and giveaways. Of course, as the fashion capitol of the world, New York will be hosting the biggest and best events of the night.
My...

art is your heart's blood.
Per mom’s request, we went to the National Gallery East Wing, where we saw the Edvard Munch exhibit.
Great exhibit. Edvard Munch is pretty crazy, but genius. His mother and sister both died of tuberculosis before he was even a teenager, and as a result his work is very dark. I respond well to dark though. haha.
After that we went to the American History Museum, where we saw the first...
isnt it ironic?
It’s raining.
Mom decided that we couldn’t go to the zoo before we walked the dog-aka Miles the standard poodle. So off to Valley Mill we went. And of course, as soon as we began our journey down the beaten trail, it started pouring. But we refused to turn back! Nick and I started singing and running wildly down the path, with Miles yapping happily at our heels. Well, hips actually....

Day one. Acquiescence.
I’ve acquiesced, given in.
And now I have a blog. Lovely. A quick bit about myself:
I will be leaving for college in a week. I’m off to the big apple, to the Fashion Institute of Technology.
I love fashion, and music.
I wear way too much black.
And I hate knives, wrists, and Green Day.
If you haven’t noticed, I’m really weird.
I’m sure I will be elaborating...
