Seeing You. Yea, YOU.

Well, in light of Drew's last entry, I've decided to write a nice, long update.

I've had a lot of fun in the past few weeks, due mainly to my many visits with all of you! First, there was George's wonderful graduation party - which, I have to say, was one of the best put-together parties I have ever attended! I got to spend time with Rachel, Drew, Michelle, Jess, Justin, and (of course) George. A picture from around the campfire:


Somewhere in there, I also got to see Mollie when she and I met up halfway in between where each of us live so that we could get lunch!

And then, last weekend, there was a night in New York City. It started with dinner at a restaurant called Gente, complete with lovely waiters. There, the group consisted of Amanda R, Mollie, Rose, Nick, and Jess. Afterwards, we did some walking around and took a trip to the Apple store before Mollie and Nick each went home. The rest of us then headed to the Village to go to a bar with Meri Friedman and her friend Jenna, and Justin met us there. A picture from the bar of us holding up our bracelet-clad wrists (look what you've done, Amanda!):

Then, this past weekend, I took a trip up to Massachussets and Rhode Island! On Sunday, I went up to my friend Adam's graduation party, where I got to spend time with Rose. Afterward, she and I went to Lexington for a while and I got to see her beautiful town and house. Then, I left for Pembroke to visit Kim and Allison. I first went to Janelle's house, where I saw not only Janelle and Jordan, but also a number of other friends of Kim's (and now Allison's!). On Monday, I got to visit Allison at work (it's so cute), and then the three of us took a mini road trip to Connecticut for an amazing concert put on by the band "Old Crow Medicine Show", who Kim and Allison are obsessed with. We danced up in the front, and each of them got amazing souvenirs - Kim got the scarf off of the head of the guy she loved, and Allison got the set list! She also got it signed afterward when we met all of them, which was really cool. Kim and Allison with their souvenirs:

Finally, last night the three of us traveled down to Providence to have dinner with Seth and Rachel. We had a great time in Providence (even if Allison, Kim and I had a lot of trouble actually finding Seth and Rachel at first)... it was even complete with some crazy guy beating some random kid up and threatening to kill him and everyone else in the area, a conversation with the friends of this random kid (who were deserting him!) , and some crazy lady begging Seth for money. After all of these events, we decided to go to Rachel's house, where we played a thrilling game of Scattegories. An incredibly attractive picture of Seth, Rachel and Allison posing with a stick sculpture we found while walking around Brown (sorry it's blurry):
All in all, it's been wonderful seeing so many of you and I'm hoping to see the rest of you soon! I'm looking forward to seeing some of you at Mollie and Amanda's in a few days.
Much more to update, but I figured I'd let this entry sit with the theme of "visiting Conn kids." I'll fill you all in on the rest soon :)
Missing you all!
