Oh, Sandy...

Hey, how ya goin?

Right now I'm avoiding reading as much as I can. So, that obviously leads to me writing a new post.

Last week was a bit of a whirlwind. Hurricane Sandy hit and New York City freaked out. Luckily where I am didn't get hit too hard. We did lose power for a week which led to me staying at a friend's in New Jersey until Sunday. While it was nice to have a week off from school, living in the middle ages was not amazing. I'm glad to be back in my room now with electricity and water.

I'm listening to a very weird playlist right now that I made. Currently playing "All the Things She Said" by TATU. Instead of reading I've gotten coffee, made a study schedule, and cleaned up my email inbox. I'm only 14 days away from going home for Thanksgiving! Is it sad that I'm already excited for next summer?

I'd like to say I'm going to read now but we all know I'm probably going to end up on Youtube.

P.S. Don't forget to VOTE tomorrow! I sent in my absentee ballot weeks ago!

P.P.S Here's a clip about Sandy from my favourite movie.

"Get Some" Mexican Sun

Hey hey! So I decided that it was time to write again because a) it's been awhile and b) I read 4 chapters of biology today, so I earned it. As you may have guessed, I'm back at school at NYU in NYC. Classes started Tuesday and that's about all that's interesting about that. Right now, I'm not sure how much longer I'll be here in NYC as I am possibly having a change of plans in the near-ish future.

Anyway, since the last time I posted I went to Mexico! I went with my mom, stepdad, and some family friends. It was so much fun and so beautiful but let's be real: me and my hair don't like that Caribbean humidity. Plus most of the drinks (water, milk, juice) were warm...eww. But we got to do a lot of fun shit, including my favorite thing: seeing the ruins of Tulum.

I'm still peeling from my sunburn BTW. Also, my sister, Amanda, and I are only 9 days and 1.5 hours from what is going to be an "interesting" day at worst. I'll let you know how that concert goes after I start breathing again. Kidding, but seriously, going from seeing someone on a regular basis to twice in the past year is obviously going to make that whole shindig interesting. At least if anything goes badly, Amanda and I will be in our favourite city in the world, CHICAGO! 

At some point, I'm going to post another list-like entry that sums up some of my favourite albums...but for now, I must go. 

P.S. I think it's important that you know I'm currently listening to "Forfeit (Live)" and smiling. Just listen and you'll know why. You can't miss out on the voice of a sexy sheep!
