i heart ny

i had some of the best times of my life the past two weeks in ny. i met 9 amazing friends/other students in the class and had two awesome teachers. we did so much during the day all around the city. we visited so many different cultural neighborhoods. we hit up the ny tolerance center, the United Nations, Chinatown, a jewish neighborhood (Boro Park), Columbia School of SOWK, an islamic temple, the national suicide hotline, hell's kitchen and many more places. i met a boy...well, i actually met many boys. but one in particular stands out. here is how we met...i shared a bed with a woman named jackie(i know, we paid so much for this trip and had to share beds!)...anyway her son came to visit with his gf and they stayed with the gf's cousin...the cousin is kurt. kurt is the boy. i guess we are dating even though we live so far away. today he sent me beautiful flowers and emailed me a confirmation of his flight info. he will be here to visit by the end of the month. we will have to just see how this goes. so many things happened in ny. i wish i had a computer with me there. ill post some pictures randomly and maybe tell some stories. this is the most important thing that came out of this trip...

more to come later. i still have to finish writing my journal for the class. it is our only assignment. i must finish so i can get my A and maintain my 4.0 action! k bye.
