NYC Update
Yup, I am finally back and ready to post. Catie took me lots of cool places and it was lots of fun...until our flight was cancelled of course.
Thursday I saw:
Rockefeller Center Ice Rink (very cool)
Central Park Ice Rink (very cool)
Central Park (HUGE)
Madison Square Garden
Radio City Music Hall (that looked awesome)
MTV
NBC
Times Square (sooo many people and it was awesome looking)
Ground Zero (couldn't see much cuz it was dark)
United Nations (pretty cool place)
UN General Assembly
Fireworks while standing on Wall Street (very cool)
Macy's
Grand Central Station
Toys R Us (HUGE, and lots of people)
NASDAQ
Friday I saw:
Brooklyn Bridge
Museum of Sex (kinda weird)
Union Square (good shopping)
NY City Hall
Civic Center
Statue of Liberty (overrated...already saw it before)
Governors Island
Staten Island (the ferry was cool)
Saturday I saw:
Brooklyn (dirty dirty place)
Ocean (Don't travel to the ocean at night or by yourself. It is extremely scary.)
Hell (an awesome gay bar)
Cubby Hole (a neat lesbo bar)
Sunday I saw:
China Town and Canal Street (cool place)
Times Square again
This girls apartment (really cool place)
Monday:
As we were getting ready to leave, Catie and I got phone calls at the exact same time. Mine said that the flight was cancelled (10:30am flight) and my new flight was at 8:20pm. So I was pissy. She called back to find out her time and they said it was at 11am, going to Minn first. So after some thinking, I went to the airport w/her to see if I could fly standby. They ended up putting me on a flight to Memphis and then to Milwaukee. I finally got home at 4pm and she got home at 6:30pm. I love how we were originally on the same flight, but then she ended up in Minniapolis and I ended up in Memphis. Odd? Yeh, I think so.
Other than that, I didn't get the scholarship I applied for..I didn't get the job I interviewed for...and I didn't get the internship. It's very depressing to work your ass off and not get anything out of it. All I want is a chance to prove myself...but obviously nobody wants to give me that chance. I always saw myself succeeding in life, but lately I keep getting pushed down. I'm on the verge of giving up because nothing seems to be working. Why do the slackers always succeed? Anybody willing to offer some advice?
