Back... =(
School's gonna start tom... Sad =(
the trip to NYC is by far the most enjoyable (possibly because of the relaxing schedule due to the longer break and also because I'm not required to drive)... With no particular agenda, we made the trip reallie fulfilling, visiting Statue of Liberty (a disappointment as I expected a much bigger and majestic monument), Ground Zero (a construction site? but mood there is definitely still very solemn), Central Park (a rectangular green patch?), Arts Museum (gosh this is big with a very impressive collection and it's possible to walk in without purchasing a ticket tho we r law abiding students and paid for the entry), Times Square (can't see the ball drop, not even the stage, but atmosphere is there, think estimated to haf 750k to 1mil ppl there), lots of shopping (tho never buy much), Chicago at broadway (nice but can be better, very different from the movie, kinda disappointed at the fact that they sang Mister Cellophane in such a light-hearted way, expected a nice and sad song actuallie) and also chinese food (not much of this but good enuff)...
An unexpectedly small SOL
A group pic taken at Times Square (or rather somewhere near) during our 4 hrs wait to countdown
Some tickets of Chicago, the musical
