Three O'Clock in New York

"When it's three o'clock in New York, it's still 1938 in London."

-Bette Midler

In exactly one week, I will be on a plane overseas to London.  I've never been to Europe, and I am SO excited to be going.  I'm flying by myself, so I'll have to share my excitement with a stranger sitting next to me on the plane.  Hopefully it's a cute British guy who thinks I'm adorable for being so excited for my first time to London.  A girl can dream...

Green sweater plus green screen equals...

Anyway, I'm super excited for London, which will be such an adventure, but I am going to miss New York City very much.  I've done so many cool things this summer: meeting Matt Bomer, going to a Daily Show taping, getting a library card, and kissing a horse.  And I've loved every second of it.

Things I'll Miss:

-the High Line

-the 24-hour Duane Reade across the street

-going to Duande Reade at 2:00 AM

-the view from my apartment

-Restaurant Week

-Midnight walks to McDonald's

-Investment bankers in tailored suits

-Seamless

-my doormen

-the Met

-the hustle and bustle

Things I Won't Miss:

-getting hit on by construction workers (ew)

-the subway

-Times Square

-tourists

-traffic (vehicular and pedestrian)

I'm full of emotions right now, ranging from excitement to fear to anxiety back to excitement.  As much as I can't wait to go to London and start a new adventure, I'm sad to be leaving the greatest city in the world.
