Third day in New York and i'm only blogging about it now because it's a city that never sleeps and i haven't either, so that i can take it all in. i love it here. was miserable for a while because travelling in a group always results in people stepping others' toes. after i made the moral decision to go solo and do what my heart desires, everything seems alot better. able to say this after some good ol' retail therapy :D New York is the true shoppers' paradise ANYTIME. wheee.
One thing quirky is that there's been 4 instances of guys trying to hit on me in the span of 2 days. it's just curious.. is that part of the New York culture anyway?
"Hey miss, are you single?"
"nah" -smiles and walks on-
"oh really? you want to talk about it?"
"nah" - smiles and walk somemore-
"are you sure you don't want to talk to me about it?"
wah. not very exciting pickup lines. i think i should actually continue the conversation a while longer the next time it happens to see what New York men can come up with. they are rather direct though, during lunch when i was out at Sixth Avenue this bunch of men in uniform stopped their car at a bend, rolled down the windows and tried to strike up conversation.
in the middle of New York with the whole world bustling around, feels like straight out of a movie.
