We woke up at 11AM and had to get ready in time for Kayla's script class. Stopped by a thai place for lunch before (only $7 each! wow!).
The class was really interesting - it was great being able to sit in and listen to everyone bounce off each other with their unique ideas. It gave me a chance to look at films in different ways.
"The Sky Is The Sea and The Sun is The Moon." Journeying to the top of a mountain to get to the sun.
The sun was out, so we took the opportunity to hit up some sightseeing spots.
Met a super friendly squirrel at the Washington Square Park!
It was cool seeing everyone out just doing their thing :)
The Washington Square Arch!
The color of the NYU business building was really pretty.
The library was also awesome, but was a bit scary haha. So open and tall inside!
I decided to head off by myself and go to Times Square to kill some time while Kayla had more classes.
Bryant Park!
The seats by the window overlooked Bryant Park, so I got an iced caramel latte (so bitter!) and sketched. The glass it was served in was beyond adorable. Since I had a lot of time to kill before Kayla was free, Shane kept me company through texts.

I walked around Times Square before sitting down in Bryant Park, enjoying the scenery. Despite the sun setting I kept sketching outdoors since the night was so nice. I debated asking if I could sit at someone's table so I wouldn't be bothered, but figured I'd be okay. Sure enough, a middle-aged man passed by, then came back and asked if I did "Chinese drawings." I was a little taken aback, but before I could respond he started improving in the most gentle voice. He called my art a gift from God, just like my smile, my eyes, and my hair. Oh man I was flustered! haha. I didn't know what to do but I don't think I'll ever forget his words.
Met up with Kayla after sundown and while walking to Times Square together I told her about the man. I know living in the city, you become numb to panhandlers, but it's hard to steel your heart to people like him. I hope he continues to find joy and happiness.
We went to the Toys R' Us store. They had a ferris wheel! I really like the idea and look of ferris wheels, but I can't say I feel the same being in them...
We tried to play on the DDR machine but it was broken.For dinner we went to John's Pizzeria. $15 per pizza!! No slices!! I only ate 3 slices... lol
Ahhhh I get to see Shane tomorrow! I'm so nervous but so excited!! My bb~ ;-; I finally fell asleep at 3AM after trying to convince him to buy a different ticket, since he had to wake up at 5:30 for the boltbus... I tried to set an alarm so I'd wake up when he started traveling but I shut it off in my sleep...............
