Friends&Parties&Other good things

As the semester winds down, I get more and more excited to be done here.
But then I have to remember how much I've loved these past two years.
This weekend, Megan and Lindsey came up from Provo for Ashley's bachelorette. We had such the lovely time together. We started our celebration with dinner at Johny Carino's and then headed over to the Hilton for a swim. Swimming at a hotel in which we weren't privy to a room was about as wild as it got. After a few hours of splashing and synchronized swimming in the h20, we headed back to Rachael's house for presents, dessert, and other girly things.
The night was all laughs and loves.
Really- I have the most wonderful friends. They have changed my life, and made my college expierence so perfect.
I'll miss them desperately for the next year we're apart.
Well needless to say, the night was a sucess, we wrapped things up at 2am and were exhausted. Skipped a few classes today catching up on sleep but it was worth it.
Ashley and Scott make a beautiful couple. They're going to have a great life together.
My favorite picture from the night-
The lovely bride to be [in her veil -a DI find- and funny "Dream-bride" necklace] and I.
Also my sweet roommate in the Red Brick House this semester <3

New York City here I come!

Yup, on August 5th I'm moving to Dobbs Ferry, New York. Dobbs Ferry is 15 minutes outside of Manhattan, a very well-to-do area. I'm going to be a nanny to a 19 month old little girl. Most of you know I've been a nanny before in California and swore I would never do it again. But the prospect of having a whole year off school before I start a nursing program, and having to stay in Cache Valley was too much to bear. Not that I don't love my family, the valley, our ward etc., it's just that I don't like to sit tight if I don't have to. So NYC it is. Perks of the job? Ok; an insane amount of international travel, living a skip away from a very exciting and ginormous city, my own "wing" -or the like- in a 7-bedroom house situated on a golf course, more money a week than I usually have in my bank account (I'm poor), and the company of a sweet little girl... just to give you an idea. Guess what else? The father of this family has his own Wikipedia page! Who even has that??!! They're pretty prestigious- but I feel like I would be breeching security or something if I were to elaborate on that. So I started this blog to keep in touch with all my dears. It's so you can read about my adventures at your convenience. If you're interested check in every once in a while.
