New York, New York

As I am sitting here.. I am blogging from the heart of New York City. It was a harrowing journey ( my 1st plane ride) but I made it.
Since arriving I haven't done a whole lot but I have enjoyed spending time withmy family and learning about their lives.... I mean I barely have time to call people as it is so these Face to Face encounters are truly amazing and enjoyable.
So as I stare out the window at a bridge that right now I don't know the name of ( I will find out later) I wish to outline what I have been told is imperative that I accomplish here in New York.
1. I have to eat a Hot Dog from a vendor on the street ( although my cousin has told me that that is the best way to get sick because the water that they dip the hot dogs in is dirty)
2. I was told that I have to eat a pizza by the slice... not the whole pie because that defeats the purpose, and not from a national chain like papa johns, or dominos which do exist here.
3. I have to shop, shop, shop, although unfortunately my funds this time around are not conducive to the shopping, oh well maybe next time.
4. I personally would like to see the large Best Buy's that they have here... specially the one in Manhattan. (Hopefully.. before I quit the company anyway.)

Hey... I am on vacation and I am open to just about anything. This apple will be my oyster. hehehehe.

But can you believe one of my teachers gave me homework over the break.. Outrageous I tell you. Oh well I am never off that grind. Never.
