New York, New York

I love the city! It is insanely busy, always, but I love it! There is so much to do and see -
Three "amigos" entered the car on the subway train I was riding yesterday and treated us to a melodic spanish tune - two had guitars and the third played an accordian. In my very poor, jobless state, I couldn't offer them even a quarter, but I enjoyed their little serenade!

I think I basically have the subway system down - with the help of my little map, anyway :). I think the whole subway system is so fasinating - built underneath a massive city, strong enough to withstand layers of trains going back and forth all day long...I definitely need to research it and figure out how they engineered the whole thing!

I have yet to find an internship, but I do have a couple of possibilites after making phone calls today, and have compiled a list of over 30 potential places - so it's phone calls for me until I can set up some interviews and snag a job! I have decided that as a reward to myself for finding an internship will be to go visit Chinatown...good motivation! I need to find some Chinese pengyous friends)! Alhtough, I am seriously considering taking spanish so I can understand and talk to Aubery and Gabe! They are amazing to me and I am so blessed to be able to live with them!
