New York City

I had a fun time in New York City with Maiko and my aunt Carrie. We went to the main tourist sites such as Statue of Liberty (spent half the day waiting), Empire State Building, Top of the Rock at Rockefeller Center, Little Italy, Soho, Chinatown, and Times Square. We watched broadway plays of Hairspray and Color Purple. I liked Color Purple more than Hairspray. I got to sit in the front row of Hairspray by my aunt winning the lottery tickets 3 hours before the show started. I was at Times Sqare when the ball dropped. It is so not worth going there. I waited for 5 hours just standing and being so bored from looking at the ball and TV screen. I was standing at 54th and 7th Ave. The ball was at 42nd and 7th Ave. I had a far view. I so felt like a sardine and even when I tried to check the time on my watch I ended up bumping into someone.

I had lunch at Armadillo Willy's then I had dinner at Scott's. Before that, I went shopping at Stanford Mall. Yesterday, I had lunch at Taxi's Hamburger, I felt so sick after a few hours of eating the hamburger. I had to vomit and go back and forth to the bathroom. I will not go there again. I ordered an avocado jack burger, probably it was the avocado that made me sick. Later that night, I had dinner with Day at Thai Pepper in Santa Clara, then we joined Bera and Deep at the open mic night at Mission City Cafe to hear people singing and playing an instrument. The day before yesterday, I had lunch at Taverna Gyro in Sunnyvale with my co-workers.
