Starting Up

So Sam has been begging me to start blogging again for about four months now. I don't know what the issue was. I think it was that I felt I had so much unsaid that it would be overwhelming. But I decided I would start now and just make a small goal of one a week. Pretty sure no one reads my blogs but sam and steph and honestly I only read their blogs so I figure it is a small way to keep you both updated. Sam if this makes you feel better I started blogging because of your post about me.

Well I know make about an hour and a half commute to the Bronx everyday to work in an elementary school. I take the MTA north to Haarlem and then the subway. Honestly commuting is not cool or as glamorous as they make it seem. Everyday when I get off the train and see the trash, ciagrette butts, dog poop (well who knows I just always tell myself it is dog poop), and homeless people being picked up by the cops and I think wow do I miss disneyland. It was actually ironic the other day I had disney music on my ipod by the projects and it seemed so wrong, to be stepping around the homeless guys while hearing hakuna matata. I try and stick with the beatles, katy perry, or opera now, they have a decent mood and feel a bit more at place. The opera works because it is so dramatic. Best part of my commute has been a dad I see walk his children to school every morning. He is the only person who smiles at me that whole time. Sadly I haven't seen him recently.

I have seen some crazy things in only a week and a half. Yesterday at the train station I was standing next to an ad board when all of the sudden the glass shattered everywhere. Honestly I ran, I kinda thought it was maybe a gun shot or who knows what. Turns out it was so windy that the lock broke and door flung open making a huge noise. At least I wasn't the only one who ran.

The photo above is of my mother when she came to visit me a few weeks ago. We saw Wonderland in it's preview and honestly I loved it. It was funny and the music and costumes were great! Cool part of the city is that I could see a show in preview that could win a tony which means I can say I saw the original broadway cast.
