New York was everything I have ever imagined and more! Here are some photos of my wonderful trip!
I had the opportunity to visit the Miss Universe office! I enjoyed meeting the staff behind such an incredible organization, they were all very welcoming!
Have to get a selfie by the reigning Miss Teen USA! Isn't she gorgeous?!
I went to Milk with Hoang-Kim and OH MY GOODNESS. YUMMY.
And of course, we had to be the typical tourists :)
First Broadway Show: Mamma Mia! The actors and actresses did outstanding!! We sat 4 rows away!
There were frequent starbucks runs!
On top of the Rock!
Blair is just fabulous and put me in the most beautiful Sherri hill dress!
Yuko did a beautiful job painting my face! And she has the most ADORABLE baby.
Goofin' around, I had a really fun time!
Fadil is pure magic and I am so blessed have been able to work with such a wonderful team! They really know how to make a girl feel beautiful!
Visiting the 9/11 memorial was heart-renching. My heart goes out to all the lives that were lost and the families that it affected. I was truly at a loss for words. It made me realize how precious life is and how unpredictable it can be. {Gone, but NEVER forgotten}
Of course you have to make a stop at Serendipity when you're in New York! The frozen hot chocolate is heaven. {Words of advice: I got so excited, I drank it way too fast. Don't do that. You will get a serious tummy ache.}
Sora and I had a blast playing in the snow in Times Square! We were dancing around and taking so many photos..and by how many stares we got, people probably thought it was our first time ever seeing snow! But there is truly nothing quite like a snowy day in New York City with good company and some coffee.
I can see why people fall in love with this city so easily. I fell in love with the city, the people, the food, and the feeling that I belonged to be there. (Even though getting a taxi is so much harder than it looks.)
New York,
we will meet again!
