New York City, Here I come!!!

On the evening of July 24th, I flew from Washington to NYC. This was my second visit to the city (the first was Sept 2004 when I went with some friends), but it was bound to be a much different visit because this trip I was not a tourist, but living as a Newyorker in Manhattan.

I easily made it from the airport to my front door. I was to be living with 3 roommates in an apartment in SOHO. My good friend Courtney Carter, a fellow OSU graduate and OSU soccer teammate, met me there and let me into my place. I definitely owe a ton to Court, since she is the one who found me the apartment and arranged everything for me! It was so awesome to have her help me with the move and especially to have her in NY with me!

After dropping of my luggage, we directly hit the town. Courtney definitely wanted to show me EVERYTHING! And we probably didn't stop walking for most of the morning and early afternoon. But it was nice to have her show me around and tell me about all the fun places nearby and show me all her favorite hangouts. We also went to church and met Jamie, one of my roommates to be, for brunch.

From that first morning, I knew I was going to LOVE New York!
