so an update...
the amount of time and energy i put into this journal entry i should put into my school work! i'm having to log onto someone's unsecured network to get signal so i can access the internet and some days getting signal is a pain in my ass. so anyhow, i'm gonna update with what is going on in my life up here in the big apple.
i made it to union city, new jersey this past weekend for a halloween party and let me just say i feel safer walking the streets of new york. the party was fun, my hosts were a gay couple who had the nicest view of lower manhattan, the view was stunning! i had to work sunday morning so i did my best to behave but still managed to have a good time. i didn't dress up or take pictures really, i would of taken pictures on their roof top but i was freaking out somewhat so i tried to stay still as much as possible, it made sense at the time. Nobody move or we'll all go tumbling down!
sunday my friend christy and i went to a 'dia de los muertos' celebration in manhattan. we're both new to the city so we're walking around the village trying to figure out where the celebration was being held. as we're walking down lafayette i see a group of people walking with candles and a group of aztec indians in front of them in their headdress coming towards us. so we're watching the ceremony and talking amongst ourselves and i feel a tap on my shoulder. i turn around it's my friend nora, we went to high school together in el paso and she now lives in brooklyn. so random but everyone says ny is the biggest little city you could ever live in.
monday for halloween christy and i went down to greenwhich village for the halloween parade which is just freakin crazy. it's like sixth street in austin but one hundred times worse. i really hate crowds of that caliber so we decided to grab dinner and drinks instead and people watch that way. the costumes were of course crazy but i really like the kids that came into the museum during the day, they were the coolest in my opinion.
i was also supposed to go on a date monday but i forgot to call the guy in advance, i called sunday night but haven't heard from him as of yet. i wonder why i'm single? i was actually interested in this french cutie in my film production class, he's 20 but i thought he was mature for his age. well if you know me then you know i'm never right and so is this case with this guy. his name is alex, from paris, and for the most part is a nice guy. he wanted to have lunch today after class but didn't have any cash on him, i suggested the subway sandwhich shop since they take debit cards, near the school but he said he didn't want to go there because it stinks. HOW do sandwhiches stink i ask?! it's not fuckin mcdonalds but anyhow we argued a little over this and i decided it's not worth my time, goddamn french people.
i'm coming to austin for christmas and would like to spend time with my friends who are gonna be in town while i'm there, we should hang?! i'll be there a week which probably won't be enough time but i'd like to see everyone if possible, make some suggestions and let's hang!
saskatoom did the baby commeth?
a photo from the ceremony to end my post.
