Went to New York today!!! Woot! First time ever! yeah, bought a pomegranate!!! LoL I boght one from a side-street vendor, who I haggled with for the price. Wicked funny. We finally agree on $1.50, the original price on the sign... Funny how that works out, right? heh I'm such a shitty haggler. LoL
Wow... if you heard me talking to Jeremy the other day, you would think I was the most self-conscious, had the lowest self-esteem, and the least amount of self-confidence ever!!! I was bashing on myself all the time, being such a dork... LoL And if you acutally counted up how many times Ii bash myself in this thing, you'd be like... Whoa, this girl sucks at life! LoL I need a new sense of humor!! *laugh*
Anyway... We went to a Christmas carol The Musical, at Madison Square Garden... There were about a million other schools there... I was in like... second to last seats at the top, and whoa... I could jsut see htat the girl's dress was red... Or is it ORange?!?! Better yet, is that a girl!?
But, I was really impressed and would definitely buy tickets to go see that exact same show jsut for two scenes that I fell in love wiht. The scene where Marley's ghost was proving he was real, was simply amazing. The blacklights and the paint on the people's clothes? The effect was AMAZING!!! And the ballet of the Ghost of Chirstmas yet to be, the simple yet extremely effective beat as they sang and danced was... well, to be quite honest, AMAZING!!!! LoL Am I being repetitive? heh
The we were let loose, Me, Missa, corey, Dan, Andrea, and St. Louie, with Ms. Blissmer- we went o nthe subway to Ground Zero- how depressing. That's all I hav eto say... I really felt crushed there... Like, I ddin't feel any sadder than I did the day it happened, but I guess that I could just... see the destruction and it crushed me. So, when we went by St. Paul's Cathedral, I reuqested we stop in, and while everoyne else was busy, I sat in a pew and prayed, something I haven't done in hte longest time- Mainly becuase I don't beleive in God. But, I guess that you hav eot beleive in something at moment like that, becuase afte rI was done, something made me feel better. I don't attribute it to God, but jsutto the fact that I let some stuff off my chest that has been sititng on my for a while.
The... We went through chinatown, and I bought a pomegranate, and checked out all the hacks on Canal St. I almost bought this awesome scarf, but eh... my mommy's making me one for Christmas and I have on in hte back of my car. Lol
So, then, with an hour and a half left, the gorup decided to get lunch... So, we went to little Italy, and were standing in front of a little group of restaurants, and checking out the specials at this one, when we decided to go to the next one down. At the exact moment, a guy came out of the one we were standing in front of, and basically hauled us inside by the arm... Wicked funny watching Ms. Blissmer being yanked around by a guy smaller than me... LoL
So, we had lunch... chicken parmigiana with penne pasta for me... which included bread, soda, more bread, balsamic vinegar and oil, (OMG DAN!! I love you for showing me that bread thing... So good...) and the main course. All of which was, as I told the man to bouts of laughter fro mthe cooks, Primo Delische--- How do you spell that? LoL i figured it was okay, because we was calling either me or Ms. Blsismer, Bella, all through the meal. what a funny guy.
On the way home I slept for the alst hour or so, but man... corey's feet STINK!!! And Andrea, please do not ever take off your shoes again... Lol Wicked fun day, lots of great food, entertainment, friends, etc. I love New York! LoL
