"6th avenue heartache"--the wallflowers

hey hey hey
well it's my 1st real day in the Big Apple. I've been hanging out with my dad, doing tourist-y things i suppose, for me, it's mostly exploring, so i know where and what to do when i actually have a free minute. Anyways, I've walked nonstop today...wheee...

First off, we had lunch by my dad's hotel, and then walked over to Rockefeller Center, so I could know where I was going my first day of work. Once we got there, I realized that yes, I would be in trouble, as well as my wallet when I realized it was in the center of massive shopping areas!! yes, i am about half a block from 5th avenue, and just in the middle of a plethora of stores. Of course, the NBC building is awesome, on the bottom floor, there is a Starbucks and plenty of edible food, so send your Starbucks cards and Subway stamps my way, little friends! We then walked down to Grand Central Station, back to the Lambs, and then back to Grand Central Station, bought my 30 day metro pass, then took the subway down the financial district, walked down Wall St, and then walked to Ground Zero. It was interesting. The only thing that bugs me is that here are people walking around taking pictures of it...I guess I figured people would have more respect. Why do you want pictures of that? I don't know, that's just me.

Anyways, we took a cab back, and drove down 6th avenue, where I found the dinky little faux purse vendors and several other stores I know my mother would just love. Also, i got excited because down the block from me is a store called "Pink"! how weird is that??! lol. Anyways, we rested some at my dad's and then went over to Grand Central again to partake in the Oyster Bar. Dang, that was a lot of oysters, and the shrimp cocktail was like absolutely massive. The shrimp were just huge.

Anyways, we walked around down 5th avenue, but most of the stores were closed, so we ventured down the Empire State building, but do you know it costs liek an arm and a leg just to take an elevator up to the top...so we walked back, found some more shops and my dad dropped me off. It's about 9pm here, and i'm so tired of walking. I still have to unpack some stuff. But anyway, I think I might venture into the common room, see what's going on there.

Miss you guys!!

Peace out
see YA
