I’ll be leaving for Texas a week from today. I’m really excited for several reasons:

1. Tubing
Have you ever floated down a river, a real river–not that chlorine pool in Sea World, while enjoying an ice cold beer?

2. Food
Chicken fried steak con queso. Amen.

3. Shopping
I hate shopping in New York. Yes there are more interesting stores, but half of the time I can’t afford them. And I can’t stand how packed the stores get. Have you ever walked through Manhattan Mall? It’s like walking through Times Square. People randomly stop, cut you off, and mosey around. That’s all fine, they do that in Texas too, but the there aren’t like 5 people surrounding you while they do it.

4. Family
Duh.

5. No Work
This is my favorite. I’ve been working non-stop between my internship and Cantor. Both jobs seem to need me to come in for overtime. I need time to relax and be creative. In Texas, the days move so much slower. I’m so excited for that.
