As usual, I went to New York again. That was my third time being in the big apple city. Nothing unusual, weather, people and the city life still like the old times. But I do miss my family and friends there.I spent a month there, being with my family and friends. Well...I stayed home more often than walking on the street. You might think I am crazy to spend money on the expensive air ticket just to stay home at NY. I am not crazy at all because I have the travel voucher worth $200 from united airlines! I just paid $50+ to fly to NY!
I spent a lot, despite of the cheap air ticket. First, my Tiffany ring, then a dressy dresses, a bag, pants, victoria secret, broadway show (spamalot), hair cut + coloring, calvin klein, a wonderful italian dinner, estee launder facial set, a pair of korean style heels...and other miscellaneous items. It sounds like a luxury trip this time. I truly enjoyed my holiday being in NY, feel relax and great!
Without someone in NY, my holiday will not be as wonderful as it might be. They are my uncle, aunt, cousin, cousin's grandma, and my best friend ever, Kay Ying. Thank you for your warm hospitality and caring treatment. I truly appreciate your time and effort to bring me around, prepared nice food for me everyday, make sure I have enough clean clothes, make sure my weekend fully booked, and the most important thing is their thought (of letting me enjoy my holiday without worrying much for the daily chores, and spent time with me to make sure I'll not be alone). It was a great holiday in NY!
Well, staying at home did not limit my friend zone. I met up with my friends and hang out with some new friends too. They are Wilson, Damien, Ing Tai, Zheng, Elvis, Kelvern, Grace, E-Jing, Molly, Saik Kia, Paris, Ee Hui, Wendy and Xiang Bin. Thanks for giving me a chance to know more about you. I treasure our friendship and again nice meeting you all.
Not a tradition, but I'll definitely pay a visit to the saloon in Manhattan Chinatown everytime I come to NY, AND must be the designated hair stylist of mine. He is really a good stylist with a lot of knowledge and experience. Truly a Pro...
I had my hair cut and coloring too! My hair turns into deep red bronze after a few hours of waiting. I love it, although I have doubt initially. A sense of maturity coming from inside out, look mature too (Kay Ying's comment on my mature outlook) I'll definitely recommend my hair stylist to everyone that I know. You will never regret to be there!
So glad to be 21st soon.
I had a great Italian Dinner with Kay Ying. The Restaurant named Angelo of Mulberry Street, an Italian Restaurant rated #12 among the restaurants in NY. This restaurant located at the center of the Little Italy in Manhattan Chinatown. Their waiters are so cute, especially the one who served us on that night. He is an Italian and he knows a little of mandarin greetings like "xie xie" and "ni hao ma". Well, it took us a longer time to absorb what he is trying to tell us. A thumb up for him and his service~
I had a Pollo Portobello, it is a grilled chicken chop with mushroom and white sauce on it and it comes with carrots and fried mashed potatoes as the side.
While Kay Ying had a Filetti di Sogliola alla Mugnaia, is a fish dish with some salted vege and fried mashed potatoes as its side.
We love it so much!
New York, I will be back again soon!
