National Portfolio Day

My sister informed me last night that today was National Portfolio Day at Parsons School of Design here in New York. She asked me to accompany her, and I POLITELY REFUSED. SO THE NEXT MORNING I WENT WITH MY SISTER TO THIS PORTFOLIO REVIEW. Apparently "no" means nothing to her. Anyway we left very late, which I told her not to do because the line would be terribly long, which it was! Around the corner and all the way down the block to the next corner. (If you know New York City blocks they are well over 800 feet long, especially in Mid-Manhattan.) The weather unfortunately was not cooperating, it was cold it was windy and worst of all... it was raining. (And it may have snowed a bit too) After she found her friends I quickly took my leave, as I did have plans for today.

So I headed to Grand Central Terminal to look around the Transit Museum. Then I walked to Starbucks bought some coffee, then walked through Koreatown and down to Union Square where I left my sister on line with her friends. Only to find out that they had already walked inside. So I made nice with the people around me, namely the security guards and parents of students. I met up with old high school friends and met my sister, who received lots of good feedback. :)

The funniest part of the day was on the train ride home, I was with my sister and her friend. We let two express trains pass us by and boarded the local. Shortly after leaving the station we stopped in the tunnel, there was a police investigation ahead of us. My sister's friend started acting all silly asking people if they had seen Saw IV and if they were scared that the train stopped. Then the lights went out and she let out a scream and said, and I quote "We all gonna die!" She had the entire subway car laughing, this couple in front of us could not stop laughing, the woman laughing for 2 minutes straight! :D (Another fact about NY, it's incredibly hard to make NYers laugh, especially on the subway!) It was the most fun I've had on the train!
