Empire State of Mind

My friend Shedz recently moved to New York City for an intership with the United Nations. That’s right… my friend works for the United Nations. I’m not sure how she got that job, but she is an extrememly intelligent lady and I’m very proud of her. This also worked out to my benefit, as I know had a reason to go to New York. 

 

I decided to go visit her a few weeks ago and I’m glad I went. I had a great time! In a span of 24 hours, we crossed paths with Jerry O’Connell, Alan Rickman, William Shatner, an Olsen twin and Jimmy Fallon! 

 

I desperately wanted to see the Lion King on Broadway but it was sold out, so Shedz and I decided to Seminar with Alan Rickman and Jerry O’Connell. It was quite amazing. Here’s my autographed Playbill!

All in all, I think I definitely will be visiting New York again in the next year. It was a lot of fun but I want to do more tourist attractions like the Statue of Liberty (which I did not even glimpse once while I was there), the Empire State Building and of course I want to spend more time in SoHo.
