So no one told you life was gonna be this way...

Today we slept in after being out late for Taylor Swift. We headed out at about 1:00 pm to try and find the apartment block from friends! Success! It was pretty awesome to see it, I wish I could live there! 


After getting multiple photos of the building we walked a couple blocks to a Magnolia Bakery for lunch. It was such a cute bakery with tonnes of cupcakes, cheesecakes and pies! I went for a red velvet cupcake and Tom had a chocolate pudding pie! The icing on the red velvet cake was unbelievable, I've never had icing like it! 




We then headed to the Empire State Building as it was an amazing clear day so we thought the views would be good. When we got there viewing on the 102nd observatory floor was closed so we had to get a refund which was a little disappointing. However we still got to go to the 86th floor, which was amazing. I actually thought it wasn't too bad to miss out on the 102nd floor, because the view from the 86th floor already had me feeling slightly scared! 

Cute pic of Tom hey? 

After the Empire State we headed into Chinatown for dinner. We'd looked on trip advisor and found a really cute place that we would never have looked twice at normally! It was packed and full of locals which was good! The food was amazing and Tom and I are now back at the hotel feeling so full!!! I would definitely recommend this restaurant - Great New York Noodletown, Bowery Street.

DC duck tour!!

Today we got up fairly early and went for the hotel breakfast. I had fruit loops, which were super weird and Tom had dodgy doughnuts!!  We went into the city and our first stop was Obama's place! Obviously Barack didn't get the memo that we were in town so sadly missed out on meeting us.  After seeing the White House we walked to Union station, with a bit of retail therapy and lunch on the way! I got a pretty top from Forever 21! We had lunch in Pret, I had a California club sandwich and Tom had a New York Meatball wrap!!  We got to the station and boarded our vessel for the DC duck tour! The captain was called Captain Bucky and he was hilarious, he told us a funny joke to do with porridge when we told him we were from Norwich!! The tour was awesome, a really great way to see all of DC's monuments and memorials and learn things about them in the process! There is definitely an added excitement when you get on to the water, although it was a bit scary when Captain Bucky let

Worst Lecture Ever!

Friday began at 11, with a Meteorology lecture that I was (as always) late to. However I only missed a bit of recap so it was all good. During the lecture we learnt about the First Law of Thermodynamics, and there was a lot of maths involved. I still managed to follow it all though which was nice. After the lecture I rushed back home quick as my lil legs could carry me! I had a couple hours break and wanted to make the house look nice for when Tom arrived that evening. I literally spent the whole of my break tidying the kitchen and it didn't look like I'd even touched it, it was so messy. At 2 I headed back into uni for two super fun hours of maths! The first was a Vector Calculus lecture with the lecturer that I really like. The maths is quite hard but he explains it all really really well and takes it nice and slow, he gets a big ol' thumbs up from me. However my second lecture couldn't have been further from the nice, well-explained maths we'd been doing pr
