I ♥ New York
Honestly, what bad things can I say about New York City? Besides, the infinite amount of crime that goes on, or just that occasionally rudeness around the streets, or even the obnoxious cursing, or even better, the non-silence. But I suppose that's what makes New York so different from everywhere else. Other than that, New York is probably the greatest place on Earth (besides my room).
I should of started walking in the streets of New York all by myself a long time ago. Oh do you hear that? Sirens are going off. Maybe there's a fire. But anyways, I really do know my way around. I thought I was going to get lost minorly, but instead I found Carnegie Hall easily.
Last week, walking to the Time Warner Center was a piece of cake, considering you can't miss the two tall glass buildings, one with a large satellite cropped on top.
Anyways, Carnegie Hall was a ton of fun. There was a ton of Russians, and everyone knows my fascination with the Russian Language. It felt pretty good that I understood bits and pieces of their conversations.
Not to mention, I sat next to a senior Russian couple. They were really nice. During the second intermission, the Russian man gave me two pieces of the candy Carnegie Hall gives out for free. I was actually hesitant to put them in my mouth since every mother that steps on the grounds of earth has told their child, "No taking candy from strangers." I'm sort of an adult now. I walked to Carnegie Hall by myself, attended a concert, I am a wild woman now! :-P
I knew the couple sitting next to me was Russian because I could just tell from the words they spoke. The Russian man pointed to the program and asked if this was going to be played at the concert. I told him yes, and I foolishly said, "Oui". When I should of really said, "Da." (Which means yes, in Russian.) He was also observing the pages I read from the program, and then he would look at his program and turn to the same page I was on. I noticed that.
Thankfully, no foreigner told me to shut up this time.
Damn, I'm tired and oh look, the phone is ringing. It's mum and I don't want to talk to her. I guess this is our que to leave now.
