And then summer came.

Happy Summer lovelies!

I cannot believe I survived finals week.... The loss of hope and sanity is evident when half-way through the week you find yourself sitting on the floor watching vines at 3am, eating week-old mac-and-cheese, and laughing and crying at the same time. Totally not me... that was my roommate...  anywho....

I have found myself in yet another crazy situation, but this time it is over moving out of my lovely apartment that I've had for two years. It's going to be so hard to leave this place. I knew once I got it that any apartment I get in my post-grad life is essentially going to be a downgrade from this one... oh well. I'm sitting on my couch relaxing at the moment and finishing my roommate's pino grigio. Not quite a fan of white wines.. but this one isn't bad, and honestly, anything tastes good after cleaning the apartment all day. All the windows are open and there's a nice summer breeze coming in. I'm also entertaining the entire neighborhood with this song at the moment....

This is the first time I've had the chance to take a breather all semester and I am so thankful for it. Between five classes and 20+ hours a week at my internship (not to mention the hours I spent commuting), I have forgotten what just sitting with nothing to do feels like. There are 9 months worth of Strand purchases that I am looking forward to starting on. Also, I have the distinct honor this summer of creating another map quilt (see pic below) for two of my friends who are expecting their first baby. I am so excited that I will be in the city for her birth! For those of you wanting to know if I can make one of these for you... I'll be making them available on my Etsy shop soon! 




So back to cleaning I go... I somehow never have enough clothes until it is time to pack and move, and then I have enough to clothe the entire western hemisphere... *sigh* If you need me I'll be blasting music and finishing this wine... Up this week: My new *SUMMER* city adventures! Last pic: This one I took in Central Park shortly after attending the graduation ceremony of many of my dearest friends. If you have the chance to visit the city this summer, I highly encourage it! You are not going to experience better views during better weather! 



XOXO
