Visitors

This weekend/ Monday and Tuesday we welcomed about 5 people from Belmont to NYC! I can't tell you how nice it was to see familiar faces! We were able to host almost everyone here, and show them around the city. On Friday night we went to a very awesome restaurant called ChipShop. It is a British restaurant that serves London's favorites: Fish and Chips and Shepard's Pie. They also have been on Food network's 's " Unwrapped" for their fried candy bars! Unfortunately, we didn't get one of those, but there Fish and Chips were amazing! I will definitely be going back there!

On Saturday most of our friends went shopping/site seeing around the city during the day, but at night we went to this bar called " Beauty Bar". It's a bar that is decorated just like an old hair salon. It has the chairs with the dryers on them, and very fun decor. During the day it is a nail salon with a deal of $10 for a manicure and martini. During the night, it becomes a dance club. They have this awesome dance floor and the DJ plays throw back music! It was so fun to dance to! They also have specialty drinks like, " Shampoo", " Platinum Blonde", and " The Redhead".

On Sunday, My friend Rachel and her boyfriend Gregory got engaged! He proposed to her at Central Park. It was very fun to celebrate this special occasion with them. We went out on Monday to dinner and Dessert at Serendipity's. It's a very famous place in NYC that serves " Frozen Hot Chocolate", and was in the movie " Serendipity'. We had such a great time being able to show our friends around NYC and to spend some much needed time with them.

This week is CMJ week. It is a week long music festival where shows are played all around NYC. I'm going to a couple of shows this weekend to check out some bands for work. Should be fun!
