New York! / 9:34 PM
Hello Ladies and Gentlemen I come to you live and real
from New York City atop Albert's bed at 8.40am blogging for
you after a long flight across oceans to be here.
Last night was a blast. Albert picked me up from Newark airport
at around 5+pm (I'm talking New York time now 13 hours behind Singapore)
and we went back to his place before he brought me around town.
We went to this all American burger place and I ate this huge burger with
fries which was just heaven coupled with hot black coffee. I was happy.
It's so damn cold for me here. Apparently around -3 degrees celcius.
It's not that bad normally but when the wind blows my face just freezes
to death and I go blind for awhile. Albert is used to it so it doesn't really
affect him very much.
After that we took the subway to Times Square and walked around and talked
about all sorts of trash mostly and just had fun seeing the lights and sounds
of the rather busy place. But honestly there wasn't much to do or buy there.
I walked pass all the theatres, walked down the stretch of street in front of
MTV's TRL which I see so many times in the gym while watching MTV...
we saw lots of limosines stretching around town too.
Here are some photographs we took over in Times Square.
I stupidly didn't bring out my camera because I was a little disorientated
so all the photographs on this post were from my phone alright?
Well that over there is Times Square. Just a moment in history where
I know I went there on my first night here. I'll take better pictures next
time because I'm pretty certain we'll head back there some time.
This is the huge MandMs store we went to in Times Square. Everything
was M and Ms. Tons of chocolate and merchandise and t-shirts... everything.
Here's a ton of M and Ms in all different colours. This is just one panel of it
there were at least 4 or 5 in total and you could just fill up some containers
to buy these wonderful little chocolates. They come in colours I have never
seen them in before. Cool stuff. Of course because I'm here for my audition
I didn't even eat a single M and M. After the 4th I shall be free!
That's a damn unglam picture of us. I was very cold I couldn't even smile
properly... sigh. Please excuse this picture! Haha. Just thought I'd post it
to let you guys know I've found Albert and that I'm safe and sound.
Alright I'm going to run off to shower and go for breakfast and then it's
shopping for me I think. Gonna look for some cool stuff you can't find in
Singapore. Yes it's true Albert's room mate snores like a dinosaur.
Thankfully the training I got from sharing my room with my twin brother
for the first 16 years of my life proved useful because Jon snores like a
volcano as well. Haha. What can I say? Poor Albert.
Alright guys I'll blog again soon with more updates and stuff.
My audition is at 4.30pm on the 4th of March so that'd be about 5.30am
on Monday morning for you guys there in Singapore. No matter please do
keep me in prayer because I really need that covering from the Lord.
I hope to hear from you guys soon on MSN or whatever.
We've got some cool stuff planned so check back here to see what we'll be up to
here in New York City. Take care!
