The big apple

Hi friends!!!!!

This past wknd I visited my sorority fam in NYC!! One of my bigs lives there & is killiiing it! It was such a fun, wholesome family reunion😇

We did lots of ~local~ New Yorker things with my big who is a nyc resident, which was so fun. We had the best food- pizza, bagels, all the goodness. I had the most heavenly boba of my life. NYC is so cool. I could definitely see myself living there in my 20s. I luv how you don’t need a car, there are so many diff cute neighborhoods, and the vibes are just great. 

We went to a comedy show and some of the comedians were kinda awk lol- but it was funny. My fav day we went to Central Park and had a picnic. It was sunny & a bunch of dogs kept coming up to us because we had food lol, or because they liked us?? This one cute white fluffball hung out for a while and we named him Pookie. So cute. 

Anyways, just catching you all up on my recent whereabouts. Have a good week!

To my sister:

Hey Claire, Booga, & my bestfriend💗

We have grown from toddlers to bickering middle schoolers  to besties in high school, to you being my role model, now being my forever bestfriend, and being your maid of honor!I I truly got a built-in best friend (two of them! Shoutout Ella ) and I couldn’t be luckier. I won the sister jackpot.

Claire, you inspire me every day to be kind and thoughtful. I have not met anyone as considerate, warm-hearted, and caring as you. You remember the small random things I say, text me anytime I mention a big event I was nervous about, send me so many cute cards, and overall always make me feel SO loved. I love you so much and cannot even begin to explain how grateful I am for you (I would seriously need a whole blog or novel for it).

You are incredibly smart, hardworking, beautiful, and a wonderful woman. I’m so proud of you Miss Nurse! Saving lives and stamping out disease daily, as GS says. I’m so excited to see you as a bride this year and marry the love of your life! I’m so happy you found your person, I love Tom. You deserve a partner that is so amazing, and who treats you as well as you treat everyone you love, and Tom is definitely that. I can’t wait to have a brother and stand beside you on your big day!

Thanks for listening to me always, even when it’s about annoying random stuff. I remember when we had to split up our shared closet in 2018 when you moved away to college, it was one of the saddest days. I miss living next to you and giving you back massages in exchange for wearing your clothes. My love and admiration for you is endless. Plz move to Chicago with Tom soon so we can hangout everyday instead of FaceTime every day haha. Can’t wait to share a closet again, go to yoga with you, and keep doing life with you!
