So, New York City was all I ever imagined it to be, and more. It definitely blew all my expectations out of the water. It's too bad that we couldn't stay longer, as there was so much more I wanted to see. But. Alas, it was still an incredible time. My feet are killing me from our extensive walks from Grenwich Village to Ground Zero, to the docks where you catch a ferry to see Lady Liberty, to wandering Times Square and Central park, and hunting for bars in Soho.
There's too much to go into detail about, so I'll just make a short list of the most exciting points, and if you find the aspect interests you, let me know, and I'll tell you more about that particular adventure!
- Times Square and birds pooping on Shilton
- Posing with Samuel L. Jackson
- Seeing the cops take down a dude we partied with at gunpoint at 5am
- Partying in a Mafia bar.
- Chillaxing in Soho
- 35 people partying it up together across the city, beginning at the Mariott
- Karoke at 3am
- Central Park at night
- New York Pizza = the shiznit
- Rooming with three guys, and totally becoming one of the guys
- Being looked at like a freak by a sales person in Toys'r'us when asking where I could find the Star Wars section.
- Shilton getting pooped on by a bird again
- Bar hopping at 4am
- Taxi rides that are so cheap we could take them everywhere
- Seeing Lady Liberty from afar
- Our school clearing out the awards section for Broadcast. REPRESENT!
- Heart to hearts with co-editors in the hostel when completely trashed
- Laughing as the guys mack on all the ladies in the bar
- Poor Tyler freaking out that something has happened to me every time I go out on my own.
- Going on only 1 hour of sleep a night.
- DUTY FREE!!!!!!
- Classmates getting smashed on the bus.
- What do you mean fast food places don't serve SWEET TEA!!!!???
Of course, there is much, much more... but to tell it all would take forever.
