Annie the Nanny
Trying to satisfy my hunger for entertainment in this city I went to my local blockbuster and tried to decide on a movie. I finally settled on The Nanny Diaries and I'm glad I did. I laughed, I cried, and I was absolutely charmed by the whimsical similarities to Mary Poppins! It takes place in the upper east side with a beatiful setting and a finely decorated appartment. Music was well chosen and the script is anything but corny. If ever you stumble upon this movie, watch it, and then watch it again.

Airline "Bliss"
I recently when on vacation to NY with my boyfriend to spend time with my friends from back home. I flew with US Airways on the flight there and their performance was well, mediocre. I didn't get any free nuts on the plane. But we got the Syracuse alive and on time and had a great weekend. On the way back however was a different story. We got to the airport on time and were told that our plane was delayed 5 hours. I have waited for planes before so this was nothing new. I kept myself occupied until midnight when we were told that our flight was completely canceled. Thankfully my boyfriends parents house is right in town and his father was awake to come pick us up. The next day we got to the airport an hour and a half early at 5 am as advised by the person from United Airlines who rescheduled our tickets to US Airlines. The airport was completely flooded. By the time we got to security we had 30 min to get on the plane. We were told before we even put our carry ons on the belt that we had been selected for extra security screening, so they put us in a separate line to be patted down and have our bags searched through by hand. As much as I support our country and airport security I don't think that we should have been subjected to such treatment that almost made us miss our flight just because the airline screwed up!
Great New Magazine
I was picking up some sushi from my local Harris Teeter (the souths version of Wegmans) and in the checkout line I noticed this cute little magazine sitting all alone on the rack. It's called Southern Lady. Presentation was phenomenal and the content is sweet, cute, and informative, which is pretty much everything I am looking for in a magazine. Even the adds were well chosen and geared towards the classy southern woman.

Living In NC
Alright, so I recently moved from upstate NY to Raleigh NC. What a culture shock! I've never seen so many rude, greedy, mean people in my life. The city of Raleigh is definitely not the city for me. I have however found an outlet in spending my mommy's money <3 so I guess as long as I can get someone to take me out to eat and to shop I'll be happy here. I you are from Raleigh and you disagree please let me know.
