Wow. It sure has been quite since the last time I posted here. Almost a year and a half? Well, better late then never!

What can I say? New York is New York. Prior to departing on this trip I had travelled to the city twice. It was just as chaotic and amazing as I had remembered it to be even though it had been years since I last visited. Not only the city itself but the people I finally got to meet was unforgettable. It is a strange thing, really, to get to know people over the internet, talk for years and then finally meet in person. You know them so well but at the same time you don't. You know their likes and dislikes but you also get to know how they speak, what they sound like, their unique characteristics that doesn't often translate well over written messages. Either way, I'm glad to be able to call them my friends.
