Remember Allison, the girl who sold me my MacBook Pro at the Apple Store in New York?&nbsp; She just got engaged!!!! I\u2019m so happy for her! Let me tell you, she had to date A LOT of assholes before finding this guy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, I happened to by having coffee with one of my friends when I heard Allison\u2019s news and she looked at me like I was crazy when I told her about it. \u201cWhy is the salesperson from the Apple Store in New York telling you about her love life?\u201d Because we\u2019re friends. Friends who just happened to meet over a retail transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s one thing I really do miss about living in New York. People always say <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nydailynews.com\/life-style\/americans-new-yorkers-rudest-survey-article-1.1431934\">New Yorkers are rude<\/a>, but that couldn\u2019t be further from the truth. Every time you walk out your door, there are literally millions of friendships just waiting to happen. Like the woman I met in a dressing room in Bloomingdale\u2019s when I asked her if my ass looked big in the jeans I was trying on. Unfortunately, my ass did look big, but we\u2019ve been Facebook friends ever since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here in Helsinki, people think I\u2019m crazy because I know all the people at my supermarket and regular coffee place by name. Isn\u2019t it crazy to NOT say hi to someone you see everyday?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And it\u2019s not just people you don\u2019t know. The other week, for some \u201ccrazy\u201d reason I decided to say \u201cGood morning, everyone!\u201d to my colleagues when I came into the office. Two answered. One asked \u201cWhere did that come from?\u201d and the other wanted to know if I\u2019d been drinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I just smiled and sat down. Because a New Yorker is never rude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love,\nLissu<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Mom, OMG, I have great news!
