Christmas!

Merry Christmas, everyone! Our first Christmas in the big city has been AMAZING - ice skating in Rockefeller Square, the ENORMOUS tree, 5th Avenue all lit up with incredible displays... I LOVE living in the city.

-Hoping your christmas has been as nice as ours,
Julie

I did it...!

I finally bought a guitar :) :) :)
It's a Les Paul Classic, it's got a slick black finish, and I absolutely love it to death.
Check it out!

Time to get back into the swing of ROCK! :-D

Julie

So...little...time

Sorry that I can't post very often, but my job and the city keeps me very busy. It's so cool living in this place - there's always something to do, and most often that is mutually exclusive with keeping a blog. Just wanted to throw that out there. If you don't hear from me, it's not because I don't love you, internet, it's just because I'm very rarely here. I'm like one of those kids of soccer moms - all my time is structured, I'm always doing something or the other.

Pictures...

So as it turns out, the pictures from our Swiss trip didn't come out as we had planned... they're pretty bad and this camera isn't cooperating with us, so I don't think we'll be able to post pictures. Sorryyyyyy :(

Julie - the OFFICIAL autobiography ;)

So David roped me into it, and I guess I'm free enough, so here it goes.
So my name is Julie (obviously) and I was born in California. I also went to the WONDERFUL University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I graduated with a double major in English and education, and I am currently looking for a job as a curator in a museum or perhaps a teacher of some sort... I'm not really sure what I want to do but whatever it is I want it to be historical and interesting!
My hobbies include video games, yoga, gourmet cooking (and eating, of course!), fashion design (I like to dabble in creating new dresses for myself, and I LOVE walking down 5th Avenue and getting inspiration and ideas for new clothes. Maybe I'll even join a design company instead of being a curator... hmm... it's worth exploring.
I love watching David play the drums in his classic rock band, which I jokingly call Golden Days... it makes me ache to get back to playing the guitar like I did back in high school. I just don't have the time anymore, though, it seems, plus I don't have a guitar.
Other than that, there's not much more to me... I'm a straight shooter, I hate people who lie and deceive, and I always want to be the best that I possibly can, and do the best that I can possibly do in anything I attempt. Do you try and live your life this way?

-- Love, Julie

Hello, everybody!

Hi! This is David posting... hello world!
Let me tell you a little about myself... I'm an investment banker, I was born in Maryland, went to school at UNC-Chapel Hill (go Heels!), where I met my beautiful wife Julie. I did biology in undergrad, got my B.S., decided med school was not for me, and got my MBA from the Kenan-Flagler school of business.
Now Julie and I live in New York (it was kind of scary moving in even this long after September 11th, but we figure that now that we're being reactive rather than proactive, we're probably pretty safe).
I play classic rock in a cover band, but we've been branching out to originals more and more lately. Guess we're getting better :-)
In any case, we're usually fairly busy with work, so we'll post as often as we can... I'll get Jules to post a similar autobiographical piece within the next couple of days, so keep a lookout for that... hang tight.

Hi!

Hey everybody! This is Julie posting. As you can tell, we just started a blog! David and I have been on our honeymoon, we just came back from Switzerland! My god, the things we saw there were beautiful beyond words! The Alps, Geneva... the chocolatiers ;) It was simply amazing!
I'll post photos as soon as I can, but I still have to learn how to work our new camera...
In any case, have a nice day! We'll see you later!
