Off on my own!

Monday I finally did my midterm for my study abroad program, which took a while and before I knew it, it was lunch time. Ryan lives like right across the street from a Popeys so I had to get that. They messed up my order and gave me fries instead of dirty rice so it was a good thing I checked before I got back. After I ate I decided to go to where the twin towers use to be and see the new building they are building. I saw the model for what that whole area is going to look like and its pretty awesome. After I went to that I went to the 9/11 Memorial site, which was kind of sad. They had on the walls the time each event happened and they had a memorial made out of pictures and different things like that in the shape of the statue of liberty for the firemen who lost their lives. I walked around for a while just looking and taking pictures then I went back to Ryan's place. When Ryan got home we ate at a place called Nature's Grill. Its all health food and I got a chicken caesar wrap. It was really good!! When we got back to his place we watched another interesting show called Kitchen nightmares, where a chef comes in and helps reorganize family owned restraunts and gives it a makeover. There was a lot of crying on the show and Ryan and I kept making fun of them haha.

Tuesday I got up and my ankles are all messed up from the shoes I wore so I got some band aids and then went and met Ryan and "Daisy" for lunch. We went to this really good place in times square, I forgot the name of it, and we got the food and ate in the park. I got way to much food plus a slice of strawberry cheesecake, my favorite!! We were eating in the park and all of a sudden we see all these people jump up and start running, we were like what is going on? Then we realized the sprinklers had turned on and was spraying all of them..It was soooo funny!!! The people were pissed and we just all couldn't stop laughing..Good thing it didn't happen to us, bt it was just a little bit of water and it prob would have felt good since it was alittle warm out! After we ate Ryan gave me a tour of his office and everything was purple, which figures since its Yahoo! I was going to take a tour of MTV studios but im going to do it Friday since it will be less busy and that way Korunn can come also!! After I left Ryan's office I decided to go get some flip flops since I didn't bring any and my ankles were killing me. I first went to H&M and they didn't have any, but I did find a bathing suit top for $5 so I couldn't pass that up!! After that I went in Urban Outfitters and found some sandles and bought those. After that I walked around ALOT! I took some pictures, which I still need to post by the way. I got back to Ryan's around 5 took an hour nap then went back out. I met up with "Daisy" bc I am very directionally challenged and did not want to get lost again. The subway lines were messed up and the one I was supposed to get on was rerouted so I had to take another one and it was kind of a big mess. I was a little late but luckily Ryan was running late also. We met Ryan at a bar called madame something and Ryan had coupons for us where we got 4 free gin drinks free for each of us. The food menu was alittle strange to me because they had on there Bone Marrow, and I was like WHAT! People eat Bone Marrow, all I kept thinking about was bone marrow transplants for cancer and im like why would anyone want to eat bone marrow when so many people need it, then I was reminded it was from an animal not human...haha!!! Ryan ordered some fries which were awesome and huge and "Daisy" ordered duck rolls, which I must say were pretty good considering I kept thinking about Wilburt! Ryan had a friend that met us and she was telling us how she just got back from the Jazz Fest, so that was cool to talk about that. The drinks were a little strong so you can only guess what happened after 4 of them. After the bar we went to another bar where there was supposedly a party called "Loser" and they were supposed to play all 80s and 90s music, but I dont remember what music was playing. I tried another new food which I forgot what it was called but it was like meat in a wrap or something. After that ryan and I got pizza then met some really cool people on the subway and talked to them the whole time. We got back to his place and I went straight to bed.
