NYC

So here goes my first blog entry:

I got to NYC (after my flight was delayed 2+ hours) on Saturday night. I have been having a great time so far. I'm still on the Cali clock though :-O !

01-20 Saturday night....I took a cab to my brother's place in Brooklyn. Then, he made me dinner (which was fantastic). I did some business school research and decided to take a look at Columbia, London Business School and Cambridge.

01-21 Sunday...I slept in until 2pm! I got ready and met my brother in Manhattan near his work. We went to get a bite to eat.....SHOCKING part: I actually ate a real burger...as in made of BEEF. It was a big step for me (I haven't had a burger since 7th grade when I stopped eating red meat). It was damn good too! We then went to Starbucks (there is a Starbucks on basically every corner in the city). Afterwards, we went shopping....I bought a shirt at Zara after I dropped my coffee all over the dressing room floor :-O.... We ended up seeing a play on Broadway called Translations (I don't recommend it) and after we had dinner @ Blue Fin where Mike works. It was yummy! Of course I stayed up too late yet again that night.


01-22 Monday... I slept in again until around 3pm (do you see a trend yet?) As soon as I could get ready and out the door I headed to Columbia for an MBA information session @ their Business School. The campus is gorgeous! I am definitely going to consider it.

It was actually snowing/ drizzling outside! :) I took the subway to Sandra's apartment (which is really cute) We went out to dinner @ an awesome Indian food place called the Spice Market. Then, we went to have dessert @ the restaurant she works at. That was equally amazing :). Sandra introduced me to her friend who is an actress/ server/ clown/ magician. She was fun to hang out with.

So....then, I took a cab back to my brother's. The elevator opens up directly into his flat....I couldn't remember which unit # was his....So I put in the code and guessed what I thought would be the right unit...I was on the phone but decided it would be a good idea to be quiet in case it opened up into some random person's apartment :P. So, when the elevator door opened I was all worried :-O! Luckily, I am a genius so I guessed correctly :). It was funny @ the time....

That's all for now :)
