The City..

So one of my friends coming in from out of state asked if I could hang this weekend and I obliged.

It's the day I would go meet him and a few others in the city.

I thought I could be bold and do it by myself.. since I couldn't get someone I really wanted to travel with me to go..

I proceeded to go to the Metro North via Mount Vernon West. I went to Grand Central Terminal.

I was told to take the 4 train... and here is where my "adventure" turned into a "misadventure"..
I took a glance inside the train and realized it wasn't going to 33rd street.. the place I was supposed to meet these people.
So turned around to the opposite side to take the 6 train and as I peeked inside, it said it goes to 33rd! I was happy! I rushed on..

Until.. it passed 33rd....28th....and I ended up in 14th St Union Sq.
I was..rather confused.

I tried again. Went back on the 6 to Grand, and then went on the 4 train.. which.......took me right back to Union..

Sad, and having missed nearly a whole day and opportunity to hang out, I go back on the 4 and retreated back to Grand Central.

I sat in Grand Central for nearly an hour, had some YUM Kalamansi gelato from Ciao Bella and some YUM califlower cheddar soup from this place that I forgot the name of, till on of my best friends who happened to be in the area decided to meet me up for a bit.
We spent a half an hour or so with each other till I decided I should just go home.



All in all, I was very annoyed and felt like such a loser for having spent my whole day looking nice and getting lost in NYC.. :\ this is how much I fail at life.


And BY THE WAY~

This is for my best friend who met up with me at Grand Central;
