Graduation and NYC

Where do I even start? It has been another roller coaster week for me with a lot of series of events, and wait until the next post to hear about the wedding part of the roller coaster.
Friday June 18th Angel graduated from middle school!!! He is so big now!

Saturday was One Day Sale, and I closed, so I didn't get home until 1am
Sunday I worked an open-to-close shift, and Monday was blahhh
Tuesday I flew out to NYC for my photo shoot! I (along with 12 other successful EDPers) to represent College Relations Programs on brochures, pamphlets, and online!
Tuesday was such a long day though. I left my house at 7am, drove myself to LAX and waited in ridiculous lines. Long Flight. And a two and a half hour cab ride to the city. I didn't get to the hotel until 8pm and in those 13 hours I just had a cookie to eat.


BUT.... NYC was soooo much fun! I could not believe I was there. We walked Time Square, went into Herald Square Macy's, saw the Empire State Building, took the subway to 5th Ave, walked 5th Ave and saw all the shopping boutiques, walked Central Park and even had dessert at Serendipity's.

Thank you Lili for making time to give me a quick but jam-packed tour!

Wednesday I pretty much woke up at 3am our time to get ready and go for my photo shoot across the street from Madison Square Garden. The photo shoot was so much fun!!! I had my hair and make up done. AND I was a pro with my poses, the photographer hardly had to coach me- He said I was a natural!! After the shoot, I walked to Gray's Papaya on 37th and 7th. MMMMmmmmmmm I loved them! That was the only thing I knew I wanted to have (from Fool's Rush In and The Back Up Plan)

On the plane, I sat next to a 12 year old girl who entertained me the whole 6 hours, minus sleeping time. We talked about our trip to NY, her new school, her family, we played Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader on her DS, and talked some more!

Thursday - Sunday Venue Hunting, posting to follow.
