Thursday Thirteen

Thirteen Things about LINDSEY

1. I am posting this a day late because my internet connection has been few and far between. So . . . pretend it’s Thursday.

2. Wednesday was my 22nd birthday . . . the first birthday of many that don’t have anything special attached to them, haha. When you’re 15, you get your permit. 16 - license. 17 - R-rated movies. 18 - you’re an adult . . . by the time you pass 21, there’s not a whole lot else to look up to, haha! But we had a great time.

3. The first thing that happened was we were supposed to go to Six Flags in New Jersey, but it rained so much that we decided not to do that - we might go tomorrow. So instead we went bowling, which was great fun - I broke 100 on all three games we played (if you’ve ever seen me bowl, you know that this is a big accomplishment).

4. Then we took the train in to New York City and met up with my best friend Stephanie! It has been so great to see her - I miss her when she’s up here! (This completes #36 on my 101 in 1001).

5. Then we all went out to this awesome little wine bar called Vintage. Stephanie is good friends with the guys who work there, so we had a great time. If you’re in NYC, go visit - Broadway between 93rd and 94th.

6. The next day (yesterday) I go to go with a couple of friends to the Museum of Modern Art (#41 on my 101 in 1001). It was amaaaazing. My favorite Picasso was there (Girl before a mirror), so of course I was in heaven. It was awesome.

7. For supper we ate at Serendipity 3. This is the resteraunt that they made the movie Serenditpity around. Everyone thinks it’s overrated because of the movie, but it’s one of my favorite places to go in New York. Last night was my third time eating there, and it won’t be my last. Get the Frrrozen Hot Chocolate . . . so worth it.

8. Then, after supper, Steph and I went to see the Cirque du Soleil show that is playing in New York, Corteo (#80 on my 101 in 1001). I am obsessed with Cirque du Soleil. My favorite has always been Quidam, but Corteo definitely has given it a run for its money. I’m gonna have give this some thought. UNBELIEVABLE. Sooo good.

9. Then we were supposed to go out last night, but we came back to change and were so tired that we fell asleep, haha. Oh well, the celebration had to end at some point ;-).

10. Right now I’m still in Stephanie’s apartment, but I am taking the train back to New Jersey at some point this evening. Tomorrow morning we will most likely go to Six Flags (since the weather will be better).

11. And then tomorrow night is our friend Matt’s graduation party. We’re staying at his house in New Jersey, and he’s having this huge graduation party that a ton of our friends are coming to. Which is funny, cause most of them are in the south right now. It’s going to be great fun!

12. Then I drive back to Winston-Salem on Sunday, and Monday is moving day! Ahhhh! So much going on, this is crazy busy!!!!

13. And a quiz ;)!

Honesty:

You Are Somewhat Machiavellian

You’re not going to mow over everyone to get ahead…
But you’re also powerful enough to make things happen for yourself.
You understand how the world works, even when it’s an ugly place.
You just don’t get ugly yourself - unless you have to!
