as you can see, the easiest thing to wear was my high waisted jeans that i thrifted for like $10. i wore all the rest of my jeans, but these were definitely the most practical. i intentionally didn't get a picture of what i wore on the way home because it was ROUGH y'all. the outfit wasn't bad at all, it was the tired girl in them with mega bags in her eyes that cannot be seen lol. i also wore another outfit in Times Square our last night, but didn't get a picture of just me in the outfit. layers were my best friend in New York. it's so dang cold outside, but it's a million degrees inside. i wore some sort of undershirt or leggings under my jeans everyday. the trench was my warmest coat, but it had so much lint all over it that by the end of it i just couldn't handle it lol. basically if you bring pieces you can layer, handwarmers, & a portable charger you're good to go for a spectacular time in NYC.

oh the pizza place in Grand Central Station. their pizza was so good but it took like 15 minutes to get my slice lol. highly recommend.
WE FOUND THE FRIENDS FOUNTAIN !! enough said.
the view from Top of The Rock was unbeatable. it's like everything slows down up there. i was so reminded of God's glory in those moments.
a group of 15 of us headed over to Ellen's Stardust Diner, but they only had places for 13 butts, so we squeezed all three of us into one side of a booth hahaha. but, OMG WE HAD THE BEST TIME ! we were so excited to be in the city & all of us love music so naturally, we had so much fun singing & laughing together !
this is probably my favorite picture from the trip. it just captures the life of the city. this was on our way back to the hotel from dinner.
spotted: K & M posing for a quick pic on the steps of the MET (if you know, you know)
Wicked was INCREDIBLE. i was elated to be sitting in Gershwin. it's a must see if you're ever in NYC
i LOVE this pic of us. this was the Empire State Building & once again, i was wowed by the city
visiting Hillsong NYC was my absolute favorite part of the whole trip. i got to worship my guts out with my entire class & i would have done it the entire night if i could've. the message was so so good & the church was so welcoming. at this point exhaustion was setting in & i just needed to be rejuvenated & God showed up at Hillsong & did that for me.
i wish i could play the live of this photo because all of us were SO excited about church !
hands down best cheesecake in the world. SO SO SO GOOD
this is the dessert we got at Max Brenner's & it was so good ! but my burger was even better.
