Puerto Rico

Friday, May 29th, 2009

In the last two weeks I’ve been in Boston, Providence, New York City, Long Island, and now I’m heading to Vermont. But that doesn’t mean I can’t still post some of my favorite photos from Puerto Rico…

The fort at El Morro

Kayaking the Bioluminescent Bay

The Puerto Rican Virgin Mary

San Juan

I quickly became obsessed with the colorful buildings and their gorgeous doorways.

Engaging

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

I try not to be that girl that obsesses over her relationship, but when you get engaged, it’s kind of a big deal. Particularly when it’s in the spot where you went on your first date eight years ago in Boston. I’m a lucky girl.

With Liberty and Justice to Brawl

Monday, May 11th, 2009

I checked out my first roller derby this weekend, cheering on Bikini Killer (aka Jen) and the Cherry Blossom Bombshells in a very close match (is it a match? I feel like Zoolander) against the D.C. DemonCats.

It was so close, in fact, that I came close to brawling on the sidelines with a few overzealous fans from the opposing team (I think you can hear me say “shut your mouth” in the video). Now, I just need to pick out a roller derby name and learn to skate. Oh wait, there’s a Roller Derby name generator:

My brand-new Roller Derby Name is Belle Cantankerous.

Well then, there we go.
