| Thanks to Taylor (I think) for making me get on the plane and go back to Florida. The good news is that I have officially decided I want to get the hell out of Florida and move on with my life in a big city. But I can't imagine ever living in New York. Everything is so expensive and it is so busy all the time. But I love the feeling that there is always something to do. Coming back to Orlando was quite the culture shock. New York has SO much to offer culture wise that Orlando seems even more bland than it did before. It was great getting to see Andrew and Elyse while I was there and I judged a couple of impressive rounds of debate while I was at it although I must say the tournament was by far the WORST part of the trip! I will never forget walking the wrong way down Broadway at 2 in the morning or going downstairs at 3 am to wait in line for hot dogs and pretzels from a street vendor. Not to mention all the strange things that happened when we were actually out doing something! Anyway, here are tthe pictures and stories to go with them from my wonderful albeit too short trip to the Big Apple. |
