Ok so I feel like it's time for an update! Let's start with today and move backwards.

Sunday:

I went to brunch with Isa at a little place in the East Village. Then walked around Chinatown and popped some confetti poppers. The streets were covered with confetti!! Little kids (including Isa and me) were popping those little things you throw on the ground and go 'POP!'. The shops were filled with people hustlin our money for scarves, gold, purses, hats, and sunglasses. Then we walked across the Brooklyn Bridge. It was quite chilly but a beautiful day just the same. (the score is currently 21-10 Packers at the half and the Black Eyed Peas are going to do the 1/2 time show!....oh half time show...how you disappointed me.)

Saturday: I spent at the Museum of the Moving Image, in Queens, starting at 10am and leaving around 3pm. This was a very interesting museum because it started with how movies started out; as flip books etc. There was a ton of filming equipment. Lots of neat stuff. It was nap time around 3pm. I grabbed some food then the subway back into Manhattan. I got back and ended up having tea with a friend. I had to go into Brooklyn to see a my boss play with her group at a Jewish Synagogue. It was suuppper cool. Then we went down to the Brighton Boardwalk. (for all you midwesteners reading this...a boardwalk is an area right by the ocean) This was beautiful. Windy, cold and wet. I ran through the snow which was on top of the beach...went to the part that was beach, found a shell and was 5 feet away from the Atlantic Ocean. :)

Friday: I had a violin lesson which went quit well. Met up with Isa for some sushi and hookah. I then met up with Donnie at Ha! and spent some time at Hourglass and made lots of new friends. I was not in bed till 8am. :-) Life is good.

Thursday: This day was spent at the Whitney Museum.

Wednesday: We saw The Whipping Man. Beautiful production.

Tuesday: I spent the day in Brooklyn helping Rebecca Cherry (my boss) at PS 38, a public grade school. I helped her teach 2nd and 3rd graders how to play the violin. :) This was one of the best days I've had yet.

Monday: Relaxing day. Went to Black Swan with Ellen and Britt. We walked out of the theater and directly into Lincoln Center. If you've seen the movie think back to the part where she walks by a fountain...and then to the stage doors. And if you haven't seen the movie...do. Well, after the movie the 3 of us walked in the exact spot where she walked. It was surreal.

Sunday: Dizzy's Club Coca Cola to listen to an aaaamazing jazz group. The bassist was crazy good.

Saturday: I sat in the Pit of Lion King. This was interesting experience. The musicians were all very friendly. I was also back stage and got to see some of the dancers and costuming. Dinner with the group in Little Italy. Then out with Isa again. :)

Friday: NYC Ballet! Stunning. 'nuff said. The inside was beautiful.

Adjectives for the past 10 days: Beautiful. Stunning. Amazing. Awesome. I'd have to say it's be a great 10 days.
