And another week begins

This was a pretty nice weekend, overall. Unfortunatly lots of rain but Mr.Sun did decide to make an appearance today. My family and I headed over to South Street SeaPort which is my favorite part of New York City. If you've never been, its time. The summer is the BEST season to hang out there. It took us almost a half hour to find parking, let alone an hour and half in the Holland Tunnel to get there, so I highly suggest leaving early and using the parking garages which should be no more then $15.00. Let me start by saying that the seaport is beautiful! You can see the Manhattan Bridge, tons of skycrapers and its right on the water. The general aura of the area is just perfect. Theres a variety of great seafood and Italian resturants. Last summer when I went I ate at Il Porto which was delicious! Aside from the great food theres a huge 3-story mall, lots of outdoor stores where they sell little trinkets, and many different street performers. For those of you who are from California and have ever visited Santa Monica, it's the same kind of thing. My dad, sister and I watched a magic show, which was pretty awesome! Its the perfect place for a day trip during the summer time- and we all love those!

Another eventful moment of the weekend was my sisters car accident. She's fine and it wasn't her fault, but the poor Acura is now missing a tailight and some of the bumper and some girl is in a LOT of trouble with her parents for poor driving.

Other then that the weekend was full of lots of relaxing. I'm both looking forward to and nervous about the week ahead of me. Here is the things I'd really like to accomplish:
-Finish The Alchemist
-Lots, lots, lots of work for The Finishing Touch, including meeting up with a bunch of photographers and florists in the city
-Really work on the scrapbook-hopefully finish it up
-Make a magazine rack for my apartment
-Sift through the sale boxes at Urban Outfitters
-Lots of hanging out time with Kruti (my best friend who just got home tonight from Chicago)
-Figure out if I'm doing a magic lesson with my dad for Father's Day
-Go to the park and read

And lastly...
-Take on another summer project.

Ideas??
