after my sister's wedding, we just walked down to my boyfriend's "fraternity" Cleo (it's technically a literary society, not a frat) and had the after party there! we had a massive dance party and it was the best party OF MY LIFE! i had most of my best friends and all my family there, what more could a girl ask for? i didn't get back to my hotel room until 5AM that night because i was the designated driver and made sure everyone got home safely. it was all worth it though because it was such a fantastic night and i am so thankful that we had a great place to continue the party! thanks again cleos!!!
Who do you tell your secrets to?
i am really bad at keeping secrets! i usually tell my boyfriend or my sisters pretty much everything. i also tell my four best gal pals michelle, lynda, theresa and julie.
but my best friend salvatore knows most of my deepest & darkest ones and luckily he is good about keeping secrets!
What is your favorite vacation destination to visit?
PORT ST.LUCIE FLORIDA!!!!!! not just because the sun is always shining and the weather is warm but because my best friend salvatore lives there so i get to retreat to paradise every time i visit him!
we always have photoshoots when i go down there to visit - def a much prettier place to take pictures then boring ol' connecticut!
only 23 days until sal flies up here for my sister's wedding!!! i can't wait!!!!
i realized i forgot to post about my valentine's day and birthday celebration!
since my birthday was on a monday (feb 16th), i kind of celebrated valentine's day and my birthday in reverse this year. on friday the 13th, will and i traveled down to lynda's place in westport to hang out with lynda, ryan, michelle and katie. lynda surprised me with a birthday cake!
it was a funfetti cake with chocolate pudding layers! it was sooo delish and the decorating job was fantastic - thanks for making it lynnie loo!

oh yeah and i can't tell you what i got will for his v-day present! ;-)
i wish i had a better attitude about aging. if i'm this bad at turning 26, i can't imagine what i'll be like in four years when i turn 30. i dread the day! i really don't want to be one of those women who is horrified when she discovers her first grey hair and then rushes out to get botox and plastic surgery. i don't want to be like that - but yet i still can't fathom myself getting older. every time i think about my age, i get this paralyzing fear that my life is passing me by and my "good years" may already be gone.
which is a stupid way to think because when i really look back on my life so far...my life just keeps getting better and better as i grow older. sure, there are a few things i miss about the past - old friends, living with my family under one roof, being in school. but overall, i am pretty happy about where my life has taken me. thats not to say that i am SATISFIED with my life right now - i have a lot of things that i still need to accomplish. in fact, i'm sure i'll never be 100% completely satisfied with my life because that would mean that there is no room for improvement - and i think there is ALWAYS room for improvement.
but instead of focusing on my wrinkles or how i am not measuring up, let me focus on some positive things in my life and what i am thankful for after living on this earth for 26 years.
I Am Thankful For...
- my boyfriend who loves, cares, and cherishes me every single day...and somehow manages to put up with a LOT of my shit
- my parents love and support, especially my mom's cooking and my father's patience
- my sisters' love, laughter and advice
- my brother-from-another-mother - who is always on my level and loves me unconditionally
- my friends' loyalty and humor - i am really lucky to have such wonderful people in my life
- my job - i want a new one soon but i am still grateful that i even get a paycheck when a lot of people don't have jobs right now
- my education
- my feet - even when i think i can't carry on, they keep moving me forward
- the $5908.59 thats in my savings account
- my health - even though i am not 100% healthy right now, i know it could be worse
- a functioning car: Cherry Red - my 240 volvo with almost 250,000 miles on it
- the life experiences i have gained over the past years - both good but mostly bad - which have helped me to become stronger and wiser
- president obama - although he has YET to prove to me that he is capable of turning this country around, i am thankful just to have someone elected that values scientific thought and logical reasoning. i never realized how big the dark cloud of dubya was hovering over me until he finally went away.
- the internet - which helps me to survive my working day, provides me with a creative outlet, educates me, and allows me to interact with people from all over the world and gain amazing new friends and connections.
- my hair - which does NOT have any grey in it...yet

Show us your favorite present.
i'll show you my second favorite present since i already wrote about my first present in the post below.
it smells really good, i don't know how to describe it. i might even like it more then her fantasy perfume. her website online describes it as having hints of linden blossom, honeysuckle, guava, tangerine, among other things.
my BFF sal bought me this! i now own all four britney perfumes. sal always knows what to get me! i missed him so much this christmas. i felt simultaneously lonely for both will and sal this christmas. it just wasn't the same without either one of them. :-(

for those that don't know, i went and visited my very best friend in this world salvatore. we have been best friends since high school. he lived down the block from me and we met at the bus stop. i used to go over to house practically every single day and hang out with him and his family. they are like my second family. words cannot describe just how happy i was down there - i just felt so comfortable and at peace down there. i can be my real self when i'm around sal and i don't have to tone down my craziness...he gets every single one of my jokes and laughs at them too! it was the best vacation i ever had in florida and i can't wait to go back and visit again. it makes me so happy to see them all but it also makes me so sad because i know it's going to be a long time before i go back and visit. but i *VOW* that it will not be another three years before i see them again!
