We're Here!




We’re finally at our main destination New York, New York! I have always, always wanted to live in New York City. I’ve always been a big city girl, but this would be the ultimate big city I would choose to live in. There are so many opportunities here for any field of work, and my field of public relations is booming in NYC. I will try to set up a few appointments with some entertainment PR firms, such as AMP3, 5WPR, and of course the big agencies, Hill and Knowlton, Fleishman Hillard, and Rogers and Cowen. I’d also like to schedule in an apartment locator to see what kind of prices we would be looking at for housing.




BUT, this is a vacation, and I planned on driving into NYC on New Year’s Eve! I’ve always wanted to witness NY during the winter to see the Rockefeller center Christmas tree, and of course see the ball drop in times square on the eve of the new year.



Other typical things I do are go shopping on Canal Street where you can find an amazing looking Prada purse for 30 bucks.



I’d also like to get a tour of the Statue of Liberty, and go up in the Empire State Building during the daytime, as I’ve only seen it at night. I want to take Charlee to Central Park as well so she can experience the city park. As far as the nightlife, I hope my friend Ashlee, who we will be staying with, can show us the hot spots that aren’t too classy and pricey, and also I hope to see a few musicals, the Lion King is my favorite all time musicals that I’ve seen twice already. Also, I would like to see Legally Blonde. I feel like this one is appropriate because it is about a girl who is trying to be independent and do things on her own for once, and this is what I am trying to do with my trip!

  1. NYC is such a fun place to visit. You're pretty brave for DRIVING into the city! You might have to budget extra for tolls - they are expensive!

    Otherwise, I think your blog is really cool, and I like how you're incorporating networking into your coming-of-age journey. Sounds like an exciting trip!

  2. I really like the fact that you're bringing your dog along the way. She looks freakin' awesome, and I would enjoy her, as well. Dogs are my achille's heal, so to speak. New York is fun. I'm sure you know.
