25 THINGS BEFORE 25. two years past and i'm still figuring some of this out...

 

...i came across this the other day and found myself laughing out loud at just how very spot-on this list is. at 27 i've long since figured some of this stuff out...others i'm still working on. 

 

and so i wonder...what rings true for you? what doesn't? what would you add..

WHAT TO DO IN NYC | stumptown coffee @ the ace hotel

if i were ever to leave new york and visit i would stay at the ace. the hotel is cool to the point that it's almost disconcerting--they leave sheet music by the side of the bed. you know, in case you wake up in the middle of the night and feel inclined to jot down a tune. and the men who work there are impeccably dressed in that portland-imported-way that tends to buckles a lady's knees.

oh yes, and the coffee is damn fine, too.
