MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!!!

Today we watched the parade and opened presents!!! :) I got a bunch of DVDs and other cool things. I got the softest pajamas! :) Mommy and Daddy liked the presents I got them (magnets from Harrords - one of a bear dressed up as a soldier, the other as a cop), however Jacqueline didn't really like hers :-\ (I had gotten her a "bobby" hat from London).

Afterward we went out for lunch in Flushing, figures the only restaurants open would be Chinese restaurants.

Right now Chrisy and Katherine are over, and we're playing Guitar Hero World Tour :)

Today I saw Ganesh, Yi, Hannah and eventually Alex. Originally it was going to be just me and the math team boys, but Hannah arrived to the city early and gave me a call. I must admit it must have been a little weird for Ganesh and Yi since they don't know Hannah that well.

We started out at Grand Central, then to Wendy's (near Rockefeller Plaza) for lunch. We then went to Magnolia, where I got some apple cider :) Soon later, about 1 1/2 hours later Alex finally showed up! We decided to go to the Time Warner Building an went to Borders, no surprise there - lol.

Next we went to the park, and played on the swings, and got Alex and Yi nauseous on the tire swing - lol. After playing in the park we saw "Slumdog Millionaire," which was AMAZING!!!!!!! It was on movie that we all agreed was awesome, which doesn't always happy. It even made Yi happy at the end! :)

For dinner we went to the Mac and Cheese place that Konstantin wouldnt go to last time.... The place was really cute. For dinner I got the cheeseburger mac & chesse, which was amazing. I ate more than Yi!!! All the boys loved their dishes. The place was PHENOMENAL and a must go to!

Cupcakes!!! :)

Today I took my Forensics Chem Final, it was like every other test I have taken, it was all on the random stuff that nobody really studies... Hopefully I did well, we shall see. Ryan felt the same way, at least I'm not alone.

I just came back from chilling with Ganesh and TJ. We ended up hanging out in the city. We started at Lincoln Center - at the Time Warner Building and somehow ended up in Chinatown for dinner.

The boys and I went on a "cupcake tour" which started at Magnolia's, TJ' brilliant idea! Magnolia's was awesome as usual, we all got chocolate cupackes, of course I got one w/ pink frosting ;) Next was Crumbs, we got a Hostess Cupcake and Blackout Cupacake, which was the most chocolately thing ever!!! But we decided to be smart and get some milk first, which was hilarious and lead us to our next cupcakes. Apparently nobody had ever ordered just milk, even though it wa on their menu as such. We then went to eat the cupcakes, TJ described the blackout cupcake as "mouth rape" LOL. Then we went to the place in Bryant Park that the lady at the milk place had told us about. The cupcakes were soo tiny, but sooo good! They were about the size of a quarter and could be eaten in one bite. The cupcake designs were so intricate, it was amazing!

We then decided to walk around, and somehow ended up walking to Chinatown. I ordered some "chow mein" for the boys, which they liked! And here I am back at Fordham!

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!!

I'M FINALLY 20!!!

That means not only am I no longer a teenager, but I'm now 2 decades old... not really sure how I feel about that yet...

Last night we went out to Mugz and OMG tonight my friends surprised me w/ a homemade cake! :) BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!!! I YOU GUYS!!!! <3 Last night we went out (Me, Ashley, Becky, Hilarie, Jackie, Jenny, Rachel, Alex & Will) to Mugz. I had 2 drinks and 2 shots, impressive huh? Needless to say they had gotten drunk. Everyone else got drunk as well... Ashley and Jackie kissed... 4 times. We had said we were only to go out for an hour or 2 - lol. That clearly didn't happen, we were out from 10:45 - 2:30 ish, followed by a dance party in our room til like 4 AM.

This morning started out kind of boringly, I did have lunch w/ Becky and Jackie though, followed with take out from Simon's with Ashley, Becky, Jenny and Sean. :)

Towards the end of the night I was a bit "mopey" as Jenny put it as I didn't have cake, so I was going to eat the cupcake that Rose had gotten me. I was going to eat it w/ Jenny, however she disappeared so I was chilling w/ Liz Donohue for a bit.

Danielle called and wanted to see us, so we went to the lounge and... SUPRISEE!!!!

Ashley and Becky had baked me a cake for my birthday! <3 Everyone was there as well! Ashley, Becky, Rachel, Jenny, Danielle, Andrei, Will, Alex, James and Diddy.

I totally suprised her w/ my present. I had given her the pair of shoes she was expecting, however underneath them in the shoe box, I placed the wallet I got her, and man it took her forever to find it. I hinted so hard too, and we had to tell her - lol.

MICHAEL PHELPS!!!

I MET MICHAEL PHELPS!!!

Today I met Michael Phelps! He was doing a book signing for his new book @ Barnes and Noble on 5th ave. I know what you're thinking, Michael Phelps can write? Well on the cover it is titled "No Limits with Alan Abramson" LOL.

After my LAST class of Business Communications w/ Professor McCarthy, and lots, well some convincing, Mike and I headed to the MetroNorth to Grand Central. As I went to get a ticket, this random girl, was like can you get me a ticket, I can't remember my pin # and I'm late. After a while I just walked down to the platform. Only to hear "Elizabeth, you're on the wrong platform." (It was Mike). We had a nice ride down.

We proceeded to walk to Barnes & Noble and got there around 10:30, on the way we saw the line, and boy was it long! It was at 46th & Madison, meanwhile the store was at 46th & 5th on 5th. Mike saw the line and was not going to wait on it. But he did say he would stay w/ me for 20 mins, that was nice! I ended up getting 2 books, one for me, the other for the AIDS auction.

On the line I made new friends, Megan, Natalie, Shannon, Katie from Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. The girls were super sweet. As we were waiting on line, this nice SUV stops literally a few feet in front of us. It was Michael Phelps' car! We were right in front of the store's side entrance. What are the chances of that?!?

Random people kept asking the girls to get their extra books signed, to the point where they were rejecting everyone. There was one lady who asked them to get 2/4 books signe for her nephews (there was a 2 book cap). Since so many people had been asking, the girls said no to be fair. Then a few mins later, she came up to us, and tried to blackmail us. She had something to the effect of, I saw you girls had your friends come on and off the line, thats not fair. Which was not true, the girls had all come together. They may have taken shifts to get coffee and such, but they all got on line togheter. We actually couldnt figure out when she had gotten on the line. She had a really big fur coat that you could not forget - lol. After a long wait, we finally got into the store, only to go onto another line.

Finally around 2, we get to meet Michael!!! He was actually really nice. It was so weird though. We got up to one lady gave her our books, then it was passed to 2 other ladies (3 total) before it got to Michael. When I finally got up there I got to speak to him for like 2 secs. He was really nice :)

As we left Barnes & Noble, the girls invited me to lunch w/ them. They were total sweethearts! :) After I departed from the girls, I realized I had a missed text from Mike and a missed call from an "Unknown ID..." I think Michael Phelps called me!!! I was trying to be logical, and the only person it could be is Michael!!! The out of nowhere Mike called me :)

Last Financial Management class tonight! :)

Last Day @ AIG

Today was bittersweet.

Joycelyn had forgotten today was my last day :(

Shaun, Amelia and I went out for lunch together at this really cute Japanese restaurant, Haku?

I bought cards and Hershey kisses for everyone, which they all seemed to love! :)

I went to say bye to everyone, then when I got to Joycelyn, I started bawling... Leave it to me...
