east coast

here's a little recap of my long, crazy week! cheers!

day I:
flew into JFK. arrived at hotel smack dab in the middle of times square. dinner at some grill. turned in for the evening.
times square

day II: 7am train to philly. visited/met with admissions at Villanova. it was indeed sunny in philadelphia. met with family friends. train back to new york. dinner at my favorite hole in the wall japanese restaurant in NYC, sapporo.
villanova university


day III: morning at fordham university. tons of snow. went to ed sullivan theater. more snow. stood in line with tix to david letterman show. even more snow. sat 4th row in live audience at letterman- saw ben kingsley & mary j blige! fabulous experience. dinner at chez josephine, a really cute french bistro.
fordham university.... brrrrr!!!

day IV: spent the morning/afternoon at the metropolitan museum of art. fabulous time. they had a special exhibit entitled "the art of victorian photocollage"... can you say right up my alley? saw west side story on broadway. my opinion: subpar, only because Maria couldn't sing. wtf? movie hopped with the most fabulous person in Brooklyn, New York.

day V: took the train to boston. dead tired. shopped copley square.

day VI: day at northeastern university. i loved it, however it was quite uneventful. such a change of pace from new york. dinner at legal seafood, yummm.

fabulous week. back to the grind... how lovely.

currently listening to: deceptions - one be lo
