Things that make me happy... FAMILY, chocolate covered strawberries, making people laugh, playing with my niece, skydiving, playing the 'guess who sings this song game', conversations with my mother, being an Aggie, cuddling, a good book, Christmas time, Modern Family, feeling the spirit, laughing until you feel your abs getting a workout, the perfect song, my best friends, seeing the world...

Concrete Jungle Where Dreams Are Made Of...

Day 2 Saturday:
Here come the biggest post EVER!!! That is probably because we did so many amazing things in one day!! We woke up and headed up to the north part of the island! The subway system is crazy, like another language! The cool thing though is our stop was Grand Central...which is something I've always wanted to see! It's just as awesome as i thought, too bad there was no flash mob that day!! We headed to Time square after that, and lets just say it puts the strip in Vegas to shame!! It's so colorful and there are people everywhere!! It was amazing!! One of these days i'm going to have to go see it in the dark!! On 6th avenue there were a bunch of vendors selling cheap stuff... it was so much fun to walk like 8 blocks and look at all the stuff! That was the perfect gateway into Central Park!! Who would of thought that New York had two different worlds in it. The city and then a huge park!! It was so fun to be so close to where so many movies have been filmed! Then we stopped for lunch right before our boat tour and got famous New York hot dogs!! We felt like locals... haha well sort of!! We then took a boat tour, which was INCREDIBLE!!! It was so much fun! It showed us the whole city of New York, the Brooklyn Bridge, Brooklyn, Staten Island, the Statue Of Liberty, Ellis Island and everything in between!! Such a blast! I totally recommend it!! We were pretty exhausted by then, and if you've been to New York you know how exhausting it can be walking everywhere so we headed to the hotel for a little rest! After our rest we headed to little Italy for dinner, we fell in love with that place and it's delicious food! Once it got dark we headed to the Empire State Building!! It took us about an hour to get up there, in which we met a really cute older couple from Utah which was way fun! It was so cool once we got up there, you could see the whole city!! Boy does it light up!! I loved it!! It's so romantic, i almost just found some random kid to kiss... haha just kidding! It wouldn't be the first time though!! haha! New York is truly a place where dreams come true!! This was such an amazing trip!! I'm definitely coming back someday!! There is just so much more to explore... so until then New York City!!
