-
my life this past week.
- Moved into Manhattan for 2 months two Sunday’s ago for an internship
- Last Monday is my first day at my internship. After work I catch a train to Philly to take a final exam the next day.
- Took a final this past Tuesday in Philly for Business Statistics
- Spent Tuesday at the Philly Art Museum and Ikea with Ariel while eating too much
- Spent Tuesday night in Queens with Marry
- Wednesday: made it to work. phew. Dead tired. Saw Charlene Ava and Vinny at the Delancy. I filmed their show. Good stuff. Plus Ariel came.
- I eat a pretty huge burrito. Amazing! I also had a cupcake, the icing was too buttery though.
- Thursday: Settling in… finally getting to know my roommate. We eat out together. I aslo encounter my first ever cockroach. I scream. Thursday night I have nightmares about them, I sleep with the hallway light on…
- Friday: I see School of Seven Bells at the Bowery Ballroom. They were freakin awesome. Their show would be killer if they ever got a live drummer though. It was the only thing really missing.
- Saturday: Sleep in. ZZZ. I shop with Charlene and we go to Uni Qlo, my new favorite store (to all those american apparel fans, ha! you’re screwed). Then spent the night in Queens again with Marry. We saw UP, Pixar is genius.
- Sunday (yesterday): Umm… I wake up in Marry’s bed with my clothes still on, apparently I fell asleep while we were in conversation. She takes the air matress in her living room. I’m such a good friend. We head back to the city and go to church, Journey Metro. The worship leaders made me want to crack up, they need adderal. Then we meet one of Marry’s friends. I also went to the Maoz here. They accept debit/credit here unlike Philly. Although they give you less falafel (boo!) by stuffing in lettuce with your pita. BUT they make Sweet Potato Fries at the NY Maoz! Philly needs to catch on.
- Today: just another day. Going to head to the lincoln center to buy my ticket for a documentary filmed in Rwanda called “My Neighbor, My Killer”. Film isn’t until the 22nd.
