New York by the numbers

*Favorite quotes: "New York is hella dirty" - Aquillia Mikel
"She's fatter then I thought, maybe it's because of all the robes" - Aquillia talking about the Statue of Liberty
*Trips to SoHo: 2
*Things brought (not including food): 2 (a lovely dress and some balling red sunglasses)
*Times the word reckless was used: Too many to count. I'm guessing in the hundreds though
*Bars I've visited: 5 (Berry Park - had a great rooftop view of Manhattan, Viva - this one had a mechanical bull, The Levee - which had board games and candy, The Groove - which had an awesome live band, and one named after a hotel
*The Deji tour includes: Stopping by the where the Twin Towers used to be, Wall Street, the Statue of Liberty, Stone street, Soho, good eats
*Tracey Dewland is awesome because: She is letting us stay with her in Williamsburg in Brooklyn for free, she had a birthday and is now 21, She is a champ and can stay up till 3 in the morning and still make it to work, she knows where great thrift stores are, she discovered a band (This Frontier needs Heroes) and we got to go to their radio recording
*Times I've seen someone make up a musical on the spot: 1
As you can see New York is pretty bleh. I'm not having any fun at all. Alright I have to go visit the Guggenheim and do some more shopping. My work here never ends.
love (all the way from NY),

To tweet (you know the rest)

Hey gang!
I'm always inspired to blog when Lemlia does (I can't believe that they are gone). What can I say I've always been more of a blog follower then writer. Well, I have come to you because something heavy has been on my heart, should I open a twitter account? I maintain that my life is not that interesting, but I would enjoy following some people and I do see a lot of interesting things throughout the day. Help!
love,
ktv
ps- And I can't believe that summer is almost over! This weekend I have the Gordon family reunion and this time next week I'll be well on my way to my adventures in New York! Then camp college which is never not a good time!
