the big apple awaits me.

Paris - CHECK.

London - CHECK.

New York - Soon to be CHECKED.

Tokyo - To be checked.

Dubai - CHECK.

Hong Kong - To be checked.

I'm full of butterflies and I can't WAIT till tomorrow. Leaving for New York with great girlfriends. I have a million

 things to and I can't say I have everything under control yet. I'll have to sit down make a list ASAP. Wow. I can't 

believe I'll be walking the streets of New York tomorrow. My faithful Canon is of course traveling with me, as well 

as my Mac, so I'll make sure to keep you all updated! We'll spend 6 days in New York, and the remaining days will be 

spent in Virginia. I'm going to see this amazing band - Sons of Bill - at the Paramount Theatre in Charlottesville,

as well as spending time with my lovely Katinka, who is currently studying in Charlottesville, VA. This will be GREAT.

do not underestimate.

Too often we underestimate the power 

of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a 

listening ear, an honest compliment, 

or the smallest act of caring, all of which

 have the potential to turn a life around.

those garments you just can't wait to wear.

My lovely, blue jacket for River Island is a garment I love to wear the second the sun shines and the temperature rises 

to little above 5 degrees. My everyday favorite item to wear is my beautiful Michael Kors watch, that I got for Christmas 

from my love. Anyhow. The sun is not shining today, but it's okay. It's still a lovely day. I woke up 6.30 and had a long,

 nice morning. Now I'm heading out to Sats, my fitness center to get my body working! I love how you always feel so

 well after a workout. I plan to sit down with some homework, but firstly take a nice long shower, make myself some

 tea, have some ice cream and watch the two last episodes of Gossip Girl I have yet to see. Yes, that sounds great!

People seldom notice old clothes if you wear a big smile.
