The Month of Jan.

I brought the new year in great. The month of January was amazing and probably the best month in NY so far because I love the snow. And I guess tickets from SF to NY were mad cheap because hella folks from SF were in town the month of January. I got to hang out with Lainey (my old roommate from Phelan Hall at USF) the first weekend of Jan. Then Stephanie (a friend's friend from high school) came the second week. Michele (7th Ave) came last week and Justyne (sorority sister/old roommate) came to visit this weekend. It was tiresome being the free tour guide but it's fun taking friends out to restaurants/bars you love going to.

As for my love life, I actually brought in the New Year with 2 boys.. but only one was able to hold my interest. That's all the info i'm going to disclose.

Anyway.. I'm going to start cleaning my room since i'm moving in less than 2 weeks.. can't wait for the big move AND 2009 FALL FASHION WEEK. I am currently working with Tse and Ports 1961.. look out for those brands!!

The past, present, future...

9 months ago I was packing up my room in SF, trying to figure out what is to bring in one suitcase. In two weeks (from today), I will move into my new apt in the city (NYC that is). Everyday I wonder where the present is taking me and where my future will end up. I am 24 years old.. not quite young but not old. As for what is in store for me in NYC.. who knows... I might hate it and move back to SF... But as of right now, I see myself here - a city girl in NY!!

Brrrr.. it's cold!!

Friday was the coldest day in NYC. It was 5 degrees with wind chills making it feel as cold as -5 to -15. I am getting used to the cold weather but still miss Sunny California. I am looking for a ticket to visit SF for the end Feb... Can't wait!

So the news.. I met someone. He is so different from all the guys I have dated in the past, he is VERY VERY successful, fun, and sexy. We are a little different, style-wise but we just click... We can talk for HOURS and have a great time. I have doubts that our different lifestyle will eventually be a problem. It has only been 3 weeks.. if it doesn't work out, oh well... I am happy that I met him for the time being.. he is really good to me!!

The News...

Just got back from a wonderful vacay back home. Got to party like a rock star, see the fam and just hang out in good ol SF. It hasn't changed and SF will ALWAYS be the same with dumb beezing feeling insecure about themselves.. either seeing me on Haight St or Delirium. I laugh.. people know when Elena and I are together and out to cause a scene! Got to hang out with Stace and Elena.. miss those girls. Got to see Maryanne, the mother to be. I saw the boy that used to give me headaches in SF... It's always fun catching up and hanging him even though it was short and quickie*!

Miami Winter Music Conference Hoollllla - March 26-30! Gonna be off the hook. I get to relax with Michelle, Stace and Elena on the South Beaches of Miami for a couple days.. CAN'T WAIT!!

I'm on a trail period at Crunch Gym... I miss my 24 hour fitness membership.

Oh, and I joined facebook... yeah yeah..I gave in. I'm such a sucker but yummy gummy on the inside. I hope that doesn't sound nasty.

Met a few guys at Happy Ending.. I found a dance partner!!

I gave up smoking and coffee.

VICTORIA'S SECRET SEMI ANNUAL SALE!!!

Only on the subway in NYC...

I was heading to Brooklyn and a bunch of kids jumped on the train with a boom box. They started rappin a bit and then after blasted some old school break dancing music on their boom box. I looked away and when I looked back I saw the kids break dancing and the cool part was that the train was crossing the bridge so they had a good 5-8 mins without the train stopping/people jumping on/off the train. It was definetly the most creative/entertaining way to make some cash on the train that i've seen so far.

Oh what a change...

Since you've last seen me, you'll notice that i lost the big ghetto gold earrings, the fabulous nails, crossed with the whole hipster look - that whole trashy classy look. It's probably because that look here is old and the only people still rocking that style are the girls who were rocking them since day one in the PJs. That look was soo 4 years ago. Or maybe it was never the "in" style since high fashion is all around. It's crazy how different SF is to NY. Or should I say, how far behind SF is from NY, style wise. I am loving the late 80's/early 90's look crossed with the bohemia style.. it's been around for a while. The greatest thing about NY compared to SF is that you get to change up your style for every season. Summer was great, who would've thought that I would wear Keds without socks.. in different colors or gladiators with fringe in different lengths. SF wouldn't allow you to get into those without freezing your little toe off. I got into cute skirts, tank tops, bras that have cute straps and backs. I was able to wear cute bikinis under lose tops.. oh the endless things you could wear during the hot NYC days. Then you get the ultimate extreme of winter. Winter here is fun because you get to wear cute long coats and accessorizes with cute scarves, puffy ear muffs, all kinds of hats, knitted barets, fancy gloves, colorful leg warmers under your boots, cute tights.. ohh all the fun I am having with shopping for NY's winter. It did get as cold as 25 degrees last week which was harsh. It fucking sucked when there was a cold front because that wind feels like 15 degrees and you either need a scarf or a nice coat that covers your mouth so that you can breath... Yup.. NY's winter!!

P.S. Patiently waiting for Top Shop to open to help add to my winter collection!!

XOXO

Fashion Institute of Technology

So close yet so far. I'm waiting and waiting for my one year NY residency so that I can attend F.I.T without out of state fees. The fees for out of state is outragous and is almost triple the amount.. might as well go to Parsons if I am paying that much. Until then, I am am gonna take a few transferable classes at BMCC - Borough of Manhattan Community

I am gonna end this blog with these cute riding boots from Frye. Frye isn't my style but I hella want these boots. Perfect for the rainy/snowy weather in NYC - $350
