good ol' times in nyc.



weeeeee - hardcore flailing in berkeley.
 
yeah, that sums up a good chunk of my summer: laughing till it really hurt. 
damn, i incredibly miss nyc and sf.

It's cooler than usual here in SF. I would say it's been around 50-something to 60 degrees on average - perfect Fall weather.

...and speaking of Fall, I'm pretty psyched for it! Um, clothing-wise that is. I was never a huge fan of Summer clothes: tank tops, halters, skirts, shorts, bright colors, etc. But Fall/Autumn, whatever you want to call it, has definitely got it going on in my book. As pathetic as it sounds, I'm really excited about being able to finally wear jackets, BLAZERS, cardigans, and layering shirts. I think these items of clothing go wonderfully with the weather because they're not too cold and not too hot. But warm. And they also go so well with pants - which I love by the way.

I'm pretty excited about autumn leaves too - I think they're fantastic. Burnt orange, that's what I'm talking about, and deep reds.

kickin' it in san francisco...

favorite sights
favorite food
and keepin' it old school this is love.

i really hate having to say goodbye.

love it or hate it, i'm back in the chi!

and i'm utterly exhuasted right here, right now.

it feels like a lot has changed in just 3 months - or maybe, it's just me. i think i can honestly say that my time in nyc has been one of the most rewarding experiences i've had - ever. it wasn't just my internship at MTV...but new york the city, the people, and the culture. i've learned so, so much... and then some.

in about 2-3 days i'll be off to San Francisco...this summer's schedule is mad tight and i love it! i guess it'll be time to make another comparison between east and west like i did a few years back.

itsangeh0616: east
itsangeh0616: east is smarter
itsangeh0616: west is full of dumbasses

yeah, we'll see. anyhow...it's been a wild ride. ace deuce tomorrow for a day - freakin' michigan. i can't believe this, i'm going to sleep.

and it's been good

something has come over me.

i've been feeling reclusive lately and quite overwhelmed. it's people, large crowds, humidity, and sweat. and people.

saturday: couldn't even get through a new york street crowd. failed miserably at multiple attempts to push through it. just stood there, engulfed by smelly bar-hoppers and horny couples. my friends laughed.
sunday: had no motivation to get to know a houseful of new people. sat, watched a few movies (somewhat), but mostly ate. even felt awkward amongst people i knew. just wanted to leave.

for friends who know me, i'm usually extroverted, relatively open, and assertive. so all this is strange. i can't imagine what it's like for those of you who live like this all the time. one friend suggests that it’s because i’m preparing to leave. another thinks it’s the weather. i think i’m thinking too much. damn! people are leaving me before i leave them.

hello east village.

my days left in glorious gotham are few. as always, the end of summer (otherwise known as august) likes to creep up from behind when you're least expecting it. sneaky lil' beach, that august is. time to make the best of it: city walking, neighborhood stalking, subway flirting, and most importantly, old and new friends.

then again, it's not like i ever stopped in the first place. now don't you stop either, i'll feel betrayed if you do.
