As you may or may not know whether you keep up with my message posts or not, for a graduation/birthday gift my parents took me to New York City for the week! Besides seeing Times Square, Central Park, The Met, Grand Central Station, the MetLife building (Avengers Tower), I was particularly excited to be in the city that part of my writing takes place in and that major parts of the Avengers films took place in as well. One of those things being that I was able to see the exact spot (that I researched so heavily) where Alex Matthews proposes to Monica. So, since I'm currently sitting in my hotel waiting for a cab to come take us to the airport, I thought it would be cool to share the pictures I took of Monica and Alex's spot with you guys!

(Monica and Alex's literal spot)
(The bridge that Alex pulled Monica aside from to propose to her)
(Me cheesing it up whilst standing in Monica and Alex's spot)
(A turtle in their spot. I don't know why but I just feel like I needed to include this picture.)
(Oak Bridge)
(A quick snap of when I was retracing the path they would have walked to get to Oak Bridge)
(Another view from their spot)
(And another picture of me from their spot)
As you can see I uploaded quite an array of pictures in hopes that you find at least one as interesting as I did!
Also while I was in NYC, just last night actually, I had the opportunity to see a play that Charlie Cox is currently in! "Incognito" is a marvelous play and Charlie did a phenomenal job. It was amazing to see one of my favorite actors perform just meters away from me.
Thank you for your patience with me and not writing lately. Before graduation was such a flurry of preparation and even afterwards. I had college orientation, family was still in town, and other little things I needed to do in preparation for college. Then after that, I felt like I was in NYC mode; my mind was focused solely on my travels and I didn't want to think about anything else. I did actually write a one-shot, but it's a light and fluffy filler shot that I feel like isn't as enthralling as others. I still plan on posting it, just maybe not until I write a meatier one. Now also as soon as I get back home, I have to turn around and go back out of town to visit family in Missouri. My great-grandpa passed away a few days ago, and even though his departure is a happy one (he's been wanting to pass ever since my great-grandpa passed a few years ago and he's been just not mentally present since then) it's still a sad time for my family and we want to be with them.
So because of that, please stick with me as I am absent from Wattpad for a little longer! I promise soon I will be back to finished "Monica, My Dearest..." along with "Concinnity" and starting other books. Thank you and I appreciate your support as always! I hope you enjoy the pictures as well!
