Empire State of Mind

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

the day has come for me to spread my wings...

& go to freakin NEW YORK CIT-AYYY!!

bout my bus ticket yesterday and i'll be leaving a lil after midnight tonight!!

the place i got my ticket from... not the most established place. bahahaha, but i love it. i'm soooo excited. $20 for a ROUND TRIP to the city? oh heck yes!! & best believe i'm ALREADY planning to go back before the summer is over--whether it's after summer school or before school starts in the fall. hope i can make that happen!

but yes, i'm more than hype!! i mean, this is my first time going to new york. & it's weird cause i've always felt like i wanted to live there... when i've never been. we'll see, but i'm thinking i'm gonna fall in love. & if i don't, at least i'll know that it's not somewhere i wanna live right?? naturally, i wanted to go for more than one day--yeah i'm only gonna be there for less than 12 hours, but for the many times i've tried to go and failed for various reasons, i'm gonna take what i can at this point... one day? yes, please!!

besides it being a huge deal that NYC is finally coming true, i've been anticipating and ready for an adventure, some excitement. so here it is. & i'm readyyyy!!! & this is pretty much my first vacation... like ever. besides going to taiwan to see family.

& the people that are going with me makes it even better. a couple people i would have loved to come with me couldn't make it, but next time...! so far i got amber, kayla, dacia, ryan, chaya, and cordell going with me. i love em to death. :) so uh, i hope a couple of them know a little bit on how to get around and where we should go! cause i sure don't. & i know dacia, amber, and i have never been before!

so no posts today or tomorrow. & i work friday in the afternoon so hopefully i get some rest after getting back early friday morning. & i work saturday... definitely told them fools i told my friend linda i'd go to her graduation party... not sure if that's gonna happen now... ugh. i'm still so proud of her though!!! 20 and graduated?! wowza!

but be on the lookout for nyc pictures! cause babyyyy i'm gonna take a million and two pictures. kinda the main reason i wanted to go this time. taking the nikon AND my lil point-and-shoot cam. i'll do heavy duty shopping next time i go. cause right now i know it's best i don't spend what i have in savings. but we'll see--there might be something i just HAVE to get... & in that case, you know i'm gonna get it!

definitely can't sleep right now! that's not good! hopefully i catch some zzz's on the bus, but that's unlikely... :)
