So let's catch up a little, shall we?

This post is going to be a little bit of a backlog of where I've have been in the past few months. Almost immediately after the last Philadelphia post, I started the Web Development Immersive program at General Assembly, and was it an INTENSE 12 weeks! It was pretty much 9AM-11PM(on a good day) of coding, all day everyday. It was challenging, frustrating, and on most days, just flat out !@#$%^&*, BUT, it was probably the most rewarding experience I've had in my "academic" career by far. I've met some amazing people, learned lots of new skills, and in the process, I found myself actually having fun while dipping in this very intimidating field of programming.

The program ended in March, the mister and I decided to go on a trip to celebrate before I start the job search process, which I hear is the most stressful part, 6 hour technical interviews?? CUE THE ANXIETY.

Anyways, before I ramble on, let's get up to speed photo wise. There is a bit of New York, bits of a cousin's wedding in the Bay Area, throw in bits of random life moments, and of course, no post is complete without some snaps of Aydenbutton.

I will post photos of our recent trip in the next blog post, you can bet it will be very very photo heavy, and most likely split into a few parts, but keep your eyes peeled, it was an epic one :)

on the highline, most likely took it to remember the pizza spot.

40 degrees and windy, this had to happen, but the ramen was nothing special, hence no photo.

Kwak, from wurstkuche. Not a beer drinker, but this one was delicious.

favorite wedding of the year of one of my favorite couples ever.

the food blogger duo had a brisket cutting ceremony instead of a cake cutting ceremony!! HOW COOL IS THAT!?

Thanksgiving is tomorrow..TOMORROW!! I'm not quite ready for this year to end, heck, I'm not ready for this little vacay to end, will time always slip by like this? Will I always feel unready to welcome a new set of 365? As much as I'm dreading the good old "one year older one year wiser", I have a feeling 2015 will be a pretty great one.

I haven't had much time to blog, the past two weeks in New York have been a bit rough. Both the mister and I came down with a massive case of flu that knocked us horizontal for a good 4 days. It seems crazy to me Philly was over three weeks ago, we hopped back to LA for a short week for the beginning of November, then flew out to New York right after. After living out of a suitcase for almost an entire month, the homesickness has set in full force. I miss the sunny warm air, I miss my bed, I miss waking up to my aydenbutton.

And on a side note, I'm starting the Web Development Immersive Program at General Assembly in a week! It's a 12-week of intense programming bootcamp, I've always wanted to learn coding so I'm pretty stoked! This blog will probably be a little quiet for the next three months, but bear with me, I will be back!!

No more rambling, here are some more Philly snaps.

The pita was still warm when we got to our boarding gate, it was the best send-off.

I'm back!
