Austin to New York

Starting yesterday morning, I will not be back in Austin for 5 months. Its a really hard concept to grasp, part of me keeps thinking I am still on vacation or something. My dad and my sister dropped my mom and I off at the airport, saying goodbye to my sister was really hard, she will change so much while I am away. I miss them both already, but I am ready to go.

And I am having a fantastic time in NY, this is the first time I have ever been and I love it. It is sooo big, Times square is a major sensory overload and people watching is fantastic. If I ever lived here I would most definitely need one day a week not to see anyone, but as it is this place is wonderful, I love just walking down the streets (I hate slow people that try to walk in front of me) and last night we went to see Mary Poppins on Broadway.... to my theater tech friends- you would have been amazed by their sets. The whole thing was very well done and always had me questioning “ how on earth did they do that!?” Today I think we are going to bike around Central Park which should be pretty cool. Our hotel is magnificent! The room is tiny, but everything is very modern in decoration, dark with cool lighting. I will try and figure out how to put pictures of it online.

Alrighty, I am off to bug the hotel staff to see if I can get the internet to work so I can post this and look up what to do today sur l'internet.
