In January, I spent my first full month back in the U.S. after a semester in Europe, reunited with frozen yogurt & New York Restaurant Week, and started letting "my beat" build.
February was filled with little bursts of inspiration. I played shoe paparazzi and was inspired by all sorts of NYC related things, like the Soho House and a new HBO show.
In March, I went to brunch, showed you my bag, and had an amazing Spring Break trip to Buenos Aires, Argentina!!!
In April, I fell in love with Sylvia Plath, thrift shopping, and Crif Dogs... I also attended the Tribeca Film Festival (with my all-access "A" pass!) and celebrated my 21st!
May marked the end of junior year; I relaxed in Philadelphia and enjoyed a few cozy frozen yogurt & coffee shop trips.
In June, I moved to my West Village summer apartment, started my marketing internship at L'Oreal, visited the Brooklyn Flea, and read tons of Alice Munro.
July was crazy! I watched Prince Harry play polo, partied on the Kiehls float in the NYC Pride parade, and ate tons of yummy food, like crab.
In August, I moved into my Little Italy apartment (yes, lots of moving!), celebrated the end of summer with Vietnamese/Mexican food, Almodovar films, and had my first ever blog giveaway.
September was full of senior year celebration. I accepted L'Oreal's full-time offer, hung out in my new apartment, explored entrepreneurship, and had cupcakes.
October brought a Harvard trip, eccentric apartment pictures, another blog giveaway, and Halloween! (I was a cat)
November was relaxing & full of thanksgiving. I felt especially thankful for my girlfriends, my sister, and life's little lovely moments.
In December, I had apple sandwiches, met the Rent the Runway co-founders, and toasted my dear friends.
While 2009 was filled with travel and adventure, I grew even more in 2010 both personally and professionally. I'm so grateful for all of 2010's blessings! Excited to see what 2011 brings! :)

Your 2010 was full of travels! Hopefully 2011 will have some adventures in store, too :) Buenos Aires is on my list of places to go...maybe in 2012!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a fun-filled year you've had. Hope 2011 is just as good. PS I will totally let you know when (not if!) I go to NYC. Need to get an insider's guide to food and culture. Unlike most Irish who go, I'm not going just for 'the shopping'!!
ReplyDeletehow fabulous! i so enjoyed reading this. happy 2011!

ReplyDeleteHey, it’s nice you want to tell your stories about your days in BA. I have to admit that I do believe the city is "the Paris of South America". It is the architecture, the way people look, street and building design, everything is European. Maybe not Paris, but I would definitely say Italy.
ReplyDeleteAnyways, I remember when I travelled to BA, I decided it on a whim and headed to the big city. I also rented buenos aires apartments. Don’t worry if you don’t understand things and bureaucracy, friendly porteños will help you out and you will end up knowing all the secrets.
