I've abandoned this poor thing.  Oops.

So yeah, I'm already in my third week here now, but hello from New York City.  I love the exploring, the lights, the picture-taking, my apartment (not so much the moths or the leaky radiators), the subway (not so much the waits), and even my somewhat shady neighbourhood.  And this city never sleeps- I was out at 1:30 am once and plenty of people were walking around, with hundreds of taxis passing by.  There are a bunch of other Waterloo co-ops here, three of whom are my co-workers and one of those three is my roommate, and I've enjoyed their company.

I've already been present for two pretty historic events- the plane landing in the Hudson River (I took pictures of it at Battery Park after they fished it out), and the inauguration.  It's amazing how Bush seems to have become a punchline, and how much vitriol people seem to have against him.  (Oddly, this is the second time in a row I've had a fellow co-oper like Bush, for some inexplicable reason.  Hmph.)  But anyway, whoo President Obama!
