This is Nora. Nora is one of my oldest and closest friends. She's actually more like family. Our parents have known each other forever so growing up we always hung out and played together. Now she's 21, a student at Sarah Lawrence in New York and she just got back from a semester in London. It was so great to see her at dinner the other night! I was stalking her Facebook {hehe} and I just love these pictures of her.


Isn't she beautiful?
In other news, Christmas shopping is DONE! Woo hoo! I braced the mall for the last time today and I finally figured out a gift for that impossible-to-shop-for boyfriend of mine! So now I'm excited to spend the rest of the afternoon wrapping presents and watching Christmas movies!
Is everyone ready for Santa to come?

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI'm new to your blog and wanted to leave you a comment saying hello! I too live in Los Angeles, but am originally from the Bay Area. My boyfriend and I both met at SFSU and once we graduated he moved to NYC for 4 months (I seriously was dying being that far...but visiting him was just an excuse to frequent NYC)
Now we both live together in LA! It sounds like we have quite a few things in common!
She is beautiful! it's so sweet of you to write about her :) MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
