3 years in nyc
Exactly 3 years ago today Jason and I boarded a plane with a one-way ticket to NYC and all of our belongings crammed into two suitcases each. I remember walking into our new apartment and thinking "how am I going to live in just one room for the next three years?" It took some adjusting and after first feeling lost in such a big city, I finally started to feel comfortable. Jason started school and I was left to figure out where to find basic necessities in the city, how to get to and from each location and just how to survive with out the normal things I use to use everyday. I can't believe how the time has flown, law school is over and we feel like this is the place for us. In Aruba people would ask where we were from and we would always say NY. It is our home, and I think after three years we can officially say we are true New Yorkers!

Oh my gosh, I have fallen off the blog bandwagon and haven't checked yours in a while. Big mistake! :)
So congrats to the two of you for making it through NYU and the bar!! That is SO great! I read back through your entries and felt like I had a comment for every single one, but of course I can't remember them all... :) It brought back SO many memories!
You two are so cute, and I am so happy that you made it through! HOORAY!! Tell Jason good job for us!

I love the image of you guys boarding a plane with one way tickets & all your belongings ... wow, what an adventure!
I can't believe that you have lived there for 3 years! Too crazy! Now you guys are complete New Yorkers helping all the tourists get around!!! I am so excited that you guys get to stay there. What a dream come true!
