it was pretty exciting....
but now im home! and im so psyched to go home for pesach...i missed detroit this purim!!!

a few thing s
1. When you go to NY you HAVE to call the friedmens, there are so many of them you're bound to bump into at least one of them.
2. You said you're finally home, does that mean that Deeeeetroit is no longer, and your border family is you're real family?

Weird that out of all the US cities you ended up Boro Park, I lived in Brooklyn for 4 years and I think I was in BP once....
And yes, most of Brooklyn/NYC is filled with rude non-smiley, non-hello-type people
