THIS IS GROUND CONTROL

Here in Seattle its been in the twenties and thirties all week. We've got the christmas tree up, I'm cuddled next to the fireplace with a steaming mug of peppermint tea on the coffee table and Gene Autry is on the loud speaker. Its all good. Seems today marks the day we have officially entered holiday season. From here on out its elves, cookies, and The Holiday, naturally. My sister Karin is also flying in tonight from Los Angeles wuhuu

On the Road to P- Town

Tomorrow morning I'll be leaving for a weekend trip down to Portland. It'll be nice to get on the road and get back to the city- its been a while since my last visit. I wish my Portlandian, Bry could be there at the same time!Ive been in Seattle for a week now, and its been lovely to be back with family, good food, and those west coast vibes. Look out for a post all about the foodsies I've been noshing on here at home. I just made Blondies, if that can paint a picture for you. Don't even look at me like that... I have to take advantage of having a kitchen while I can! Only a week left of home, then I am back to new york. This week actually hasn't even been total relaxation; I've had to study. I am given a two week 'summer break', and during that time, I must learn an entire textbook. PA School, Y U No give me break?!

As for music news, I almost forgot about Stromae. Then, I saw this. Always keeping things interesting, he is. I adore his videos.

Only til Tomorrow..

I have today to study and pack up.. then, I'm off to Seattle tomorrow! So exciting to head back home again. All of these finals have brought me down with a head cold, so studying isn't really the most beloved thing to do right now. Instead, I find music for the plane ride. Much betttaa. 

I'll be in Seattle for two weeks, and we will a 2 day trip to Portland while I am there. Can't wait! I'm probably going to just pass out on the flight there. I'm leaving right after my biostatistics final.

The Going Ons

 Long time no blog- I have a lot of catching up to do, I know. 

 So, here is this video to help illustrate what I've been doing for the past couple months. A mix of old and new, really. I just touched ground back in New York from Seattle. I was staying with my family for about two weeks for Thanksgiving holiday- and it was so nice!

 During my trip to the pacific northwest, I also took a trip to Canada! My mum surprised me for my birthday. We were in Victoria, British Columbia, which is this charming little resort town for Canadians- the temperature there is usually warmer and the sun shines for a longer time of year than in most areas of Canada. Its their 'west coast'.
