11/22/2010 New York, Day 2






first day in NY was pretty successful, day two started off amazing we were given a guided tour of the UN with a lovely girl who give great details and answered all questions. the UN was a wonderful place to be, i was inspired by all the projects and relief they offer all around the world. i would love to one day work for the UN or any kind of organization that helps others; i would love to do something good for the world. later that day we met at Grand Central Station for lunch. it was super nice, a fresh market and eateries on the lower levels. after lunch we boarded a train and headed for the MOMA. the MOMA, ahhh what to say...it was INTERESTING. not all of it was bad i loved some of the pieces, espcially MONET'S Waterlilies, and the screaming exhibit.
the rest of the day was spent all and about in NY, in the words of my mother "everything in New York is a show" i couldnt agree with her more, the subways, the streets, anywhere there are people there is bound to be a group of people performing and entertaining. i must say some subway performer are quite amazing. dinner and free time soon came to a close and i found myself back at the Y, loving my second day in the big apple.
