I had the pleasure of meeting up with a good friend, Cherany, who I've known through LiveJournal for years. I didn't sleep too much the night before, I was too anxious and excited to finally meet in person! Cherany is a such a sweet person. Her colorful outfits and kind positive attitude will put a smile on your face.

I made sure I made it into the city early so I would have extra time to grab some goodies to welcome her first trip to New York. I was going crazy looking all over for the foam statue of liberty crown often seen on tourists. I finally asked a store worker for help who pointed above me. I'm 4'10 so my neck doesn't crank that high.:P I grabbed one and became lost looking for a good flower shop. Beautiful ladies deserve beautiful flowers and I wanted to make her first day in NYC extra special. I picked out a mixed bouquet over simple roses because she's so colorful. :D

Next I wasted a whole bunch of time trying to hail down a taxi because I was too lazy to walk. I finally just took the subway which brought me right to the restaurant we planned to meet at.

So I ended up late, which I really, really, realllyyy hate not only being in general but it's just plain rude on my part. :/

Afterwards we arrived to see the ballet titled Whipped Cream right on time. The tickets were twenty seven dollars and I assumed we'd be looking at little dots. We actually had great seats! We were high up but I could see the whole stage. I had a great time, it was such a fun and unique time - my first ballet! :)

Of course I had to check the gift shop! I bought the stickers with the art from the inspiration of the show. We both agreed the pink shirt was too kiddishsh so I also purchased a black shirt.

Times Square was our last stop but we were both tired. I was pretty down when we had to say our goodbyes.
