Things I know

Well, I have made it through my very first semester of college at FIT in New York City. This is what I have gotten from the experience so far:


-I made some absolutely amazing friends.

-I completed two handbags and 1.5 pair of shoes.

-I learned how to live successfully on my own.

-I am addicted to Trader Joe's freeze dried strawberries

-I have learned how to live off of only bread and coffee because I spent my grocery money on a necklace.

-I know how to get around New York City without a map (most of the time)

-I judge the construction of all of the shoes in department stores.

-I am addicted to One Direction, Lana Del Rey and K-Pop

-I miss football games

-I know a little bit of polish...

-I can sew

-Babysitting is the best job in the world.

-Stalking celebrities is an art form

-I have visited the Whitney and the Met

-People in New York don't understand my friendliness

-I need business cards

-Don't look at people on the subway

-Walking 30 blocks isn't that bad

-The best Thai Food can be found at Room Service on 8th avenue in between 18th and 19th

-I like cooking

-In the winter the city grows cabbage in the flower beds on the sidewalks.

-and most of all, now that I am home for break in Wichita... I miss New York more than I thought I would... I guess this means that I truly do belong there. New York is now my home.


I cannot wait to start next semester. I wonder what it will bring.
