Top 5 things I'm looking forward to about new york. 

5. Shopping... as much as I hate to say it... every now and then a Saturday morning downtown stroll for new sneakers/jackets is euphoric. Sorry Buddy Cianci, but the Providence Place Mall ain't cutting it. 

4. The Fall... hands down my favorite season in the city. I don't sweat, I don't feeze, and I don't sneeze. , I'm glad to be coming back to it.

3. No Last Call... bars here in Rhody close at 1, rarely in NY do I outlast the bars. And when i do, even better. 

2. Crazy people... Being in RI, I haven't seen as many crazy people as I normally like to... I'm excited to get back on mass transit and be freaked out a little bit.

NUMBER1...the Band...  Distance makes the heart grow fonder. Can't WAIT to be back in the same state as my band. We're gonna trash hotel rooms, go through a dark period, and maybe breakup and get back together. it's gonna be glorious

Top 5 things I'm going to miss about RI

5. Seafood... although I do miss good Japanese and Thai food, I know come November I'll be craving lobsters, littlenecks, and clamcakes. RI found a way to fry everything that comes out the ocean, and I'm down with that.

4. Normal Prices... I've gotten pretty accustomed to Fash Cash 40's....it's really gonna hurt to leave it.

3. Family... For the first time since I left high school, I've gotten to see my family a lot. My mom has an endless supply of Klondike Bars, and it's awesome.

2. Driving... When I want to go somewhere in RI, I drive there. I don't worry about parking, or traffic... don't ever take that for granted.

NUMBER 1... The Beach...I spent probably 6 days a week on the beach. my  tan, boogie boarding, Del's lemonade, lost kid announcements, books, sitting in the lifeguard chair when the beach closes, old men in speedos.... it's all over. whammy. 

so that's it! back to packing
