hot update
hot as in sticky, hard to breathe hot!!!
its been over 100 every day since ive been here. crazy!!
i cant imagine not having an a/c in our apt. im so sorry, chad!!!
anyways, so its been really great so far. i was of course really sad to leave everyone and had an emotional ride to the airport at 4am, but once i arrived, i was feeling much better. saturday got here, and had a reality check to how expensive some things are here (18$ for a burger at tgif!)
all is good and well though, as there are some things insanely cheap as well.
today classes started and we had a "scavenger hunt" round the fashion district. we went to Mood Fabrics which is where project runway contestants go. its huge and amazing and i wish i sewed more.
after class, we went to a Max Mara sample sale and i almost bought a pair of wedges..almost.
then we had a welcome picnic in Bryant Park with the program director and a design instructor. He was really funny and i wish he were my teacher. Hes a designer himself and actually had 3 collections shown in fashion week AND on the show "Make Me a Supermodel," the models had to walk down in his clothes, so he was on the show!
one more last tidbit....Madonna lived in my apartment building in her beginning out, poor days!
i have a feeling i will be updating a whole lot more while im out here.
i miss everyone and am thinking of youuuuu :)
