Do I dare say, Welcome Summer?! Schools out, Suns out, shades out. It's time to sit back, relax and worship the sun.  While the past few days have been New York's first taste of summer, the bf and I  spent the past week in Miami skipping the transitional weather and the freezing northern waters.  We stayed at the Angler's in downtown south beach and the Standard Miami, somewhere really close to downtown south beach.  Ill be posting my review of both sometime soon.

Everyone keeps asking what we did but that's just the thing, we did absolutely nothing and loved every second of it.  Now we're back home in the mellowest of moods ready to chill out for the summer.  I've never been so ready.

EVERYTHING will be OKAY

As a student, every time the semester comes to an end a general air of anxiety fills the school.  People become on edge, emotional, and irritated.  It's easy to see why this happens, especially at FIT.  Students are faced with an average of 7 major projects/exams with deadlines that are all in the same week.  It is not the most conducive schedule for working or learning but either way things need to get done.  Sometimes anxiety can take over and make it very hard to get it together and deliver during that last home stretch.  I think it's important to keep in mind that EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY. yes it will, just take a deep breathe.



On earth day my neice and I saw this lovely thing hanging.   A wonderful reminder in a city filled with people consumed by deadlines.  Whoever made this is undoubtedly awesome.
