Uptown, Downtown, turn the beat around town....


I can't believe it's our last day tomorrow!! (well, today, if you count the time difference) It seems like we only got here yesterday! Spent today with Jen and Lexie, which was really nice. We did uptown and midtown, bits of everything really. It's SO cold, i actually can't believe how freezing it is here. Bought some nice things today....went to the huge Juicy store on 5th (a-mazing) and got a ring for mum, hopefully it fits! if not i'm definately shotgunning that one. Stocked up on underwear in H&M as well, they've got a sale on and its so much cheaper than at home; oh and I bought THE BEST COAT! It's a beige fur, $20 thank you very much! it's literally my new favourite thing. Got some ripped leggings from forever 21 as well, excellent.

Visited all the major shops on the list today, walked all the way down to the meat packing district (very trendy!) to go to Balenciaga and Commes Des Garcons, now we're exhausted! had a really nice dinner though, in the mexican restaurant just round the corner from the hotel which was a cross between the setting of Forgetting Sarah Marshall and 50 first dates. All food here is huge! We all had nachos to share and a burrito each...I could have rolled home. Think i'm going to go home a stone heavier at this rate.

As tomorrow's our last day me, Jen and Becca have decided to spend it together; Jenny's flight leaves a couple of hours before ours so we're getting up early! 8am start, shower, breakfast (muffins! again....oh god) and straight out! The plan is to stay in midtown and just go back to the shops we want to get our last few bits from.....I feel a tourist session coming on. Had such an amazing time so far....I don't want to leave. England will never match New York!
