Let’s hear it for New York,New York,New York

♣In New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made,
There’s nothing you can’t do.Now you’re in New York.
These streets will make you feel brand new,big lights will
inspire you,let’s hear it for New York, New York, New York…♦

“Empire state of mind”, this song came up in my mind when I hit New York City at the first time. I could make it because of my sister Ning. As soon as she knew I would leave soon, she tried to make some trip for us. New York City is one of the place I must go!


I was so excited when I knew that I would have chance to hit the city after taking a little break from Washington D.C trip. By that time was in Easter, for many reasons we headed to NYC. I feel so thankful of my sister and her husband,Edugen. They brought me there,and this was not the first and the last time I got many things from them.


According to the weather in Michigan which was freaking cold by that time, I checked the weather forecast in NYC, it wasn’t that bad. I took some clothes which was great for summer or fall, without knowing that I would get sick from the wind. Definitely, it was colder than I believed. Ning and I were super freezing but we loved being shot by the photographer (Edugen). Even though we were smiling in the pictures, we were extremely shivering all the time.


We had only one day to stay in the big apple, so we spent all of the day doing ton of stuff, we started by getting out from a famous train station which I saw many times from movies. We took a yellow cab and passed “Ground zero” the place used to be World trade center building. We took a boat tour to visit the Statue of Liberty. 5th avenue was the place I must go,yeah we did it




On 5th avenue, we did some shopping of course but not so much because we didn’t want to carry around.Well, but how cool it was, we didn’t have to pay tax for buying things.

We passed by Apple store which looked so crowed cause it was the first of i-Pad launched, then we stopped taking a short break at Central park, too bad we didn’t have time, Ning bought some show tickets, we gotta make it.
By the time we walked all the way long to hit the show place, there were a pillow fight which was kind of tradition I didn’t get it that much but it looked fun…not really!


Apparently, we could make it. The show has a strange name, called Fuerzabruta. I really don’t know about the meaning or anything. The show was amazing and unique. I loved it!!! seriously, it was very cool.


“Time Square” was the place we went after the show and it was the last place of the trip. This place at night was so beautiful. So many artificial lights,billboards, commercials and stuff. I would regret if I couldn’t make it that day.


The Big Apple, it’s a dream place of many people. It such a real city. The question is Do I like it or not, I would say I would rather to live not to travel. One day to discover the big city is pretty difficult, but at least I did and I could say that I know some… New York City!
