Hello friends,
It has been one week and I have
a. Mastered the F train
b. Seen Mary Poppins fly over an audience and Bert walk on the ceiling in the Broadway production of Mary Poppins
c. Thrown up in front of many people in a trash can during a morning run on the island. (to which I've decided to stick to the workout room for a while)
d. Ate the best scone OF MY LIFE!
e. Heard a man preach-barking in the subway...weird
New York is an interesting place. For the first few days I barely spoke (which probably means I still spoke often but...) just because I was taking it all in. It is impossible not to get a bit of culture shock here because New York is a city full of so many different cultures. Every day is a new experience. Every day I learn something new.
I've moved into my apartment and I have mostly been hanging out with the Getz family. They are very fun and hospitable people. I am lucky!
Then my good friend Paula came on Wednesday! We went to a tea room for breakfast and then stood in line FOREVER to get tickets to Denzel Washington's play Fences. Well, they were all sold out. I mean duh, it's Denzel. However we are dedicated fans and we waited in a line of cranky people to get tickets to Saturday's show. Well, we got them...even if they aren't next to each other and partial viewing :) Denzie...you are loved.
We have finished up all of the promotional pieces for the service camp that we are planning for August. Be praying for the camp and the students that will be attending!
Till next time,
Hannah
