Abstract at the MET

I realize its been over a month and I apologize.  I have been so busy with school and doing a little traveling!!!  I have taken some opportunities to get out of the Provs and enjoy what the states have to offer.  
During the first week of school I was invited by Hoven to go to Florida and help out with the Surf Expo.  It was a really fun time being with the buddies.  We worked hard every day standing and talking to people about the glasses and company.  I never realized how nice and clean Orlando is.  I thought it was a really cool city and wouldn't mind going back one of these days and spending more time enjoying the sights.  
The next trip I took was to New York!!!  A fabulous person i know named Brooke invited me out there to spend some time with her and finally after all these years experience the Big Apple.  Brooke was a spectacular host and such an amazing person.  We ran each other ragged.  We accomplished all we had wanted to accomplish.  Here is a quick run down on the events: Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, MET, Rockefeller Center, Ground Zero, St. Patrick's Cathedral, The Phantom of the Opera, West Village, SoHo, Canal Street, Little Italy, Brooklyn Bridge, Subway System, Westville Restaurant (Brooke's Favorite), Serendipity, Cafe Lalo (You got Mail Cafe), Stage Deli, Central Park, Plaza Hotel, FAO Schwartz, Times Square, Pizza joints, Pinkberry, Magnolias bakery, Cloverfield, and tons more.  
We really did quite a bit.  My sincerest thank you to the amazing Brooke for the time of my life.  You are the best!!!  I loved NYC and can totally see myself living there.  My dad has told me since i was a little kid that NY is the place for me, and now i can see why.  The energy and motion of the city is so contagious and motivating.  Brooke calls it the channel, but i call it the Speed of Life.  
If you haven't been, which is highly unlikely (i feel like Im the last person on earth to go to NY), I recommend you go.  Just get out there and do it.  You will get so motivated and fired up on life.  I am envious to those whom I know that had the opportunity to live out there, hopefully its my turn soon.
