Looking for a place to live, again, in NYC

Happy Spring Everyone!

I am doing well, although the files in my cubicle have started to pile up. I completely support Amanda’s book club idea. I also can not believe it has already been a year – and Ashley is MARRIED, and Sarah soon to be.

My lease ends July 1st and my roommates do not want to renew. So, I am looking for someone to live with in New York City. If anyone has any ideas or know of someone else looking, please let me know. Haha- can you ask the soon to be recent graduates like yourself is anyone is moving to NYC?

THANKS a lot.
Lots of love,
Gabriela

Hi!

Hello, my favorite Preservationists! The weather is finally feeling like spring in DC. However, I cannot believe that almost a year has passed since we graduated! Fon and I had the lovely opportunity to visit Miss Sarah V. in St. John, USVI this past week. It was wonderful and sunny- and we all returned home a little bit happier, and a bit more pink. Anyway, we were talking about how all of our jobs are a bit narrow-focused, and that we feel we are forgetting/not using some of our acquired knowledge. As a result, we've decided to do the ultimate nerd thing and to set up a book club. A Preservation Book Club! We're going to pick books, make our way slowly through them, and then discuss in some sort of technologically savvy way (think Theories meets John Hinchman). I realize some of you may still be in school (haha), burnt out, or have decided to forget the past 2 years. But, for those of you who are interested, let me know and I'll add you to the list! Hope all is well!

xoxo

Back on the Map!

Annie, Frank, et al are in today's NY Times for their work on the 1964-1965 World's Fair terrazzo road map. And for good measure, click here to peep the website Megan built for the exhibit.

shared victories

This is me just after emailing my thesis draft to RM. John and I promptly went to opening day at the ballpark, sang my song to the fabled onion wheel, and despite the rain and the loss had a great time! Did I mention I applied for a job on the way to the game. Cos I did. March 31 was a victorious day.

Thanks to all of you who have sent kind words of sympathy, support and motivation. I feel fortunate to have watched you all power through this process before me. It has given me a lot of confidence.
