Yesterday I went to NYC with Hannah, Caitlin, Mary, and my Mom...and like 10 other relatives of Hannah's lol. It was awesome as usual. When we first got there I was pissed cause my mom ruined the film in my camera, but I quickly got over it. I figured I got pictures from the last time I went. So we spent some time in Time Square and got something to eat in Planet Hollywood. Then we went to Ground Zero...it was different from when we went last November. We could actually see inside the fence around it, and they had these iron beams from what was left of the WTC in the shape of a cross. Then we went to the church across the street. Inside they had all these things set up about September 11th and then what it was like after, and how hard the fire fighters worked. Oh man was it depressing. After that me and my mom decided to go to China Town while everyone else went back to Time Square. So I went there and bought new sunglasses, toe rings, and a cute new pet...it's a turtle. I saw them in their little aquariums and just had to take one home. We bought one and then had to quickly get back to Time Square to go to NBC studios to go on the tour. SO we get on the subway and find out we're on the wrong one...some stupid lady who worked in the subway station told us to get on it. So we had to get off and get on a different one. We get on this subway and found some where to sit and some lady goes to me..."You don't wanna sit here" I like pause for a minute and say "why not" she says "cause that man stinks" And sure enough he did. Oh man it was bad. Finally he got off but his stench still lingered in the subway car. Then we get off somewhere near times square and try to get a taxi...and can't find one, CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT? Finally we get one and get to NBC just as the tour is starting, we grab our tickets that were being held for us and went on the tour. So we start the tour and then they take us to where they film Saturday Night Live. And guess who we saw??? CHRIS KATTAN, JIMMY FALLON, HERACHIO SANS...AND THEN TRACY MORGAN AND DARYL HAMMOND walked right behind us. We watched them rehearse for SNL and continued the tour. We didn't see Good Charlotte though, they were the musical guests for that nights show, but oh well. Just seeing some cast members from SNL made my day. After the tour we had to run to catch the bus to go back home. I had only gotten 4 hours of sleep before we left that day so I was so tired. I got home around 11:30 and just went to bed and didn't wake up until 11:40 this morning. I didn't watch SNL last night but Hannah said she'd tape it, so we can see the part we saw them rehearsing for. Over all I had a really great time and I Love New York.
