El Verano

Summer is here! I finally said goodbye to New York City...

Goodbye Washington Sq. Park

I have been home for a week today and I'm loving every minute of it! I am so glad that I survived this semester...now it's fun, heat, sun, and concerts!! Amanda and I already have a few lined up: 6/8, 6/9, (6/16), 6/27, and 8/16. I CAN'T WAIT. I'm trying to be patient and wait for the perfect stretch of tour dates to be announced but I'm dying of excitement. Still, these little dates are good ones to get us started for the summer. Also, SP finally put out their first single off the new album. It's called "There's No Going Back." I hate it. It's actually more poppy and worse than "Maybe" which I didn't think was physically possible. It is. The verses are okay but the rest of the song is full of "oh-oh" chants and shit melodies. From what I've heard from the rest of the album though, this is the poppiest song off of the album. At least I hope it is. So, I'm a little disappointed but I also kind of expected it. Anyway, a trip to Boston to cross KV13 off of mine and Amanda's bucket list is slowly getting planned out so this summer is already more exciting than last.

Gotta go,

Tomorrow, Tomorrow

I have 2 papers standing between me and freedom. And by freedom I mean summer. I know this sounds like every other student during finals week but I am so relieved that I'm this close to finishing. I've obviously gone through finals before but this time was the absolute worst. I was one more item on my to-do list away from a having a mental freak out. Yet here I sit almost free, with the slightest smile on my face. I just finished my last final of the day and I now have to finish writing papers, pack, sell back books, and catch a flight home tomorrow. So these next 24 hours are going to be great. Since I'm sure I won't be on here again for awhile, I'll say it now: Goodbye New York, see you again...maybe.

Good luck to everyone that's suffering along with me this week!

So.....

Qué pasa everybody? Today is cinco de mayo and I'm celebrating by watching television and reading a book for class about Bostwana! The last few weeks have been a little hectic with some lingering midterms and term papers being due. But I managed to finish everything on time and now only have 3 papers and 3 exams left until I'm finished with my final semester at NYU! That's right, I said "FINAL SEMESTER AT NYU" I've been agonizing for close to a year about transferring to a place that's in the Midwest and I've finally heard back from one school I applied to and...I got into Vanderbilt!! I'm still waiting to hear back from others in lovely Chicago but Vanderbilt is a big possibility for me. I think I'll miss New York once I'm gone but I know that it was never the right place for me. I've tried to soak up all that I can though in these past few weeks though (museum trips, central park visits, going grocery shopping at the TJs in Chelsea). And I've met a few good friends while I've been here; but enough about all that.

I go home in 11 days!! I can't wait! Not only will I be home but it will finally be summer! And I already have a few things to look forward to (aka 5/13 and 7/19)...so we'll see how that goes. Amanda and I are also ready for tour again. It's been too long and we have a few things that need to be crossed off our bucket list like KV13 and San Bernardino. So I'm sure we'll at least accomplish those while driving through the desert in style. I'm also working on a playlist for the summer. At the top of my list right now is "I Need Your Love" - Calvin Harris ft. Ellie Goulding. It's perfect for summer!

Must go back to life now, PEACE out girl SCOUT

P.S. So...... (snobby)
