Life in NYC

classes have been going very well.  If I could take classes for a living...I think that would definitely be my new career!  hahaha...too bad, they cost money.  I am now a regular with the classes that I take and my favorite teacher finally knows my name!  In the years that I've come back to NY to take her classes..it's only now that she knows!  Today I am going to take a vocal lesson.  I got in touch with this vocal teacher through a friend and I'm hoping that he will be a good teacher that I could take from when I do move over here.

I've now watched a total of 8 shows!!!  Spring Awakening, Ave Q, Is He Dead, Red Chamber (a ballet/modern dance from Beijing), Curtains (with my friend in the cast), August: Osage County (a play with tremendous actors), Piaf: Love Conquers All (a well done one man off Broadway musical), and Fruezabruta (a fun show that is hard to explain, not a musical or play, a show where you stand to watch it and move with the sets...very artsy..and FUN!  gotta see it to know)

I've been able to hang out with a lot of my friends in the city.  I can't believe how many people I actually know here!  There are some people that I haven't seen in years because every time I come back, there isn't time to see all of them!  Well, this trip has really made me feel like I'm living here again.  It's not so bad commuting from Brooklyn to Manhattan.  I've definitely got the hang of the subways now.  And I kind of expect them to be late sometimes...or not even come to my stop for 15min....yes, not like HK's MTR AT ALL!!!  Oh well..that's NYC for ya!  I've definitely explored a lot more of NY during this trip.  I can't believe how little I explored when I lived here for 2 years.  The food here is sooo expensive..and just going to get coffee is unbelievable!  I try my best not to eat out..but, sometimes it's hard when you want to meet up with people.  I am improving in my cooking skills..hahaha...

Anyways...I guess not much else to say....but, I thought I'd write a quick blog just to let people know I'm still here....

I have a big audition on Sat.  My last audition didn't go too well because I think I chose the wrong song to sing....so, I'm making sure that Sat I am well prepared....wish me luck!
