Back in the New York Groove

So yesterday I moved up to my apartment on the Upper Easy Side! My room is slightly larger than a closet, but hey, it's New York. Last night my parents and one of my roommates (Olivia Kimmel!) and I ate at a Turkish restaurant right across the street from my apartment. Thats one of the things I love about New York---there are so many different types of food! I tried calamari for the first time and LOVED it. Yum!

Today I spent the day with some of my extended family on Long Island. It was quite nice to see them and we ate lunch outside at an adorable little restaurant in an adorable little town, which is always fun.

We got back and ate dinner at a restaurant in my neighborhood called Fetch. No, unfortunately it's not Mean Girls themed--it's dog themed! It was all about comfort food--I'm talkin' macaroni & cheese on the adult menu comfort food. And of course that is exactly what I got. It was delicious and provided for a nice leftover lunch tomorrow :) Oh and one of my other favorite things about New York is the interesting and often hilarious things I hear people say on the streets. We were sitting outside eating and as a woman and her husband walked into the restaurant, we hear the woman say, "I wouldn't mind sitting inside...I don't really like the outdoors." Ha! Good thing she's living in the city, right?

My parents just left about a half an hour ago. I'll see them in a month when I go home, but I'll still miss em'. I have been away from them for this long before for school, but this is different. I'm not in a dorm with all my friends, you know? I am much more alone. I have a lot planned for tomorrow, though, so hopefully that will get me back into the swing of things and I won't actively miss them as much. One of the things I have planned for tomorrow is a job interview--yikes! Wish me luck!
