2009 Halloween …

A week before Halloween day, my neighbors did their best to decorate the building at whole 69th St.

All day-time pics were taken at 69th St. (My street)

Each building had his own style : Horror, cute or funny etc…

According to my observation, I’d like to award the champion to this house because their range of decoration was the widest and the atmosphere was the most scaring.

Another side of  69th St, the style was more elegant although they tried to creat the scaring air.

There were interesting security guys in the daytime, but in the night time, I may not have the same thought.

Finally, the day of Halloween was coming, yet I still had to go to class. So pity I was…..haha…

After my class, I went home for putting my stuff. When I went out again  in late evening, I was surprised about my neightbors. It was my frist time to see 69th St became such crowed cz generally, it’s calm and just has few people who do dog-walking or go jogging.

             This year, I decided not to join the parade cz I wanted something different. One of my best korean female friend and I booked tickets for the Halloween Boat Party that we had never been. You may want to ask me why I don’t show u the pics of Boat Party. In fact, it was a long story and also an unforgetable memory for us. How can I say that? At the beginning, we had felt excited to wait on long line around 11pm in front of the Pier 40 and then, we were waiting waiting waiting.....................until 1h20am, until impatient........................in the raining cold weather.
             At least, we got into the boat, but!!!!!We was looking forthe food at first cz the ticket included the free buffet and we were sturving. When we arrived the downstair, we saw three small tables where had some hummus,  empty plates and "2" Hersey's chocolates.
Everyone was so confused about "Free Buffet". Suddently, one woman volunteered to ask the waitress where the food and drink were served.
            She answered: "I don't know why they finished so fast". OMG! How could they open this poor party to us?
In addition, a counter bar of 1st floor where we odered the cocktails sold $9 for just one small unformal cup. It didn’t worth that price. Anyway, my friend and I couldn't feel any angry, just disappointed. I also felt funny because I'd recalled when I had had bad experiences, these things would have been existed in my mind forever.
Every time I talk about these kinds of stories, I must have smile on my face. As a usual, for me, bad experiences always plant deeply into my memories although I have terrible memory.
           Probably, next year, I'd like to have the simple party at home  if I still stay NYC.

P.s I guess no one have patience to read the last part of my story. I feel upset about my english cz I haven’t stuied english for few months. I’d better to start reading asap.

Cooper Hewitt Museum

DSC01378 Yesterday, I waited my sunny day finally. NYC had been rainning day for a whole week. Therefore, I woke up early to hang out with myself. First at all,  I stop by the “H&H Bagels” for my breakfast and then, I decided to visit the Cooper Hewitt Museum by bus to enjoy the fabulous central park after-rain view.

P.s I want to add one extra info:  I used to buy Murray’s bagels because it’s on my school way and just $1 for each. If u r my friends, u might know I’d like to try the new thing. Therefore, I was thinking I needed to try the “H&H” yesterday when I passed there.

**Report**Comparing the price is “Murray’s” win ($1 v.s $1.4), the size is  “Murray’s win, but I can’t compare their tastes. They are so different. Actually, I like both, but I’d better buy in “Murray’s” for saving my money.

In fact, it' wasn’t my first visit.

My first visit was last year. I still remembered clearly it seemed a bad experience for me and I really didn’t want to go there again because these exhibitions disappointed me a lot. After that time, I’ve told everyone don’t go there. For this reason, I was a little worried when I arrived in front of the museum.

Fortunately, from yesterday’s visit, I changed my opinion. I could see this museum has been tried to improve and develop. The workers of Museum standed on the doorway to welcome every visitor with charming smile. This action let me feel so warm, especially, in this cold weather. In conclusion, I want to share some part of my love to this museum from now…haha…

In the National Desin week, they offer free admission from 18 to 24 oct. If you are in NYC, don’t miss this chance….Enjoy it!!!! 

P.s In the Museum. the camara is not admitted, so I could show u the design exhibitions. Sorry then.

All about bad news!

Since a couple of weeks, all my stuff have gotten into a mess; especially, yesterday, I had the most serious problem have to be dealed with.  

DSC00755 DSC00756 DSC00763

I can’t tell u what’s going on exactly because nobody can help me. I just want to have some useless grumbles.

I know well that the only solution should be found by myshelf.

Losing the direction is the most terrible thing for me. I feel frustrated and so helpless now because I don’t have enough time to let me think about it.

Anyway, I give myshelf a deadline. Before it, I need to have some ideas or solutions, otherwise, I gonna lose everything. 

P.s Perhaps, these days, I can’t renew my blog frequently. Sorry……

P.s All pics were taken in MOMA.

MOMA – Ron Arad

MOMA is one of my favorite Modern Art Museums, as a result, I’m used to visit there at least once per month.

Last visit, it was before my Paris’s trip, I profited 2-hour break time to stop by there. Before my visit, I hadn’t checked the current exhibition’s info. I just looked around whole building very quickly cz most part of exhibit weren’t renewed yet. Until the top floor, I found something interesting.

That special exhibition already showed in the Pompidou (in Paris, and also my favorite place) in 2008. Yet, in MOMA, it was put into a darkroom. When the visitors entered, they must have fixed their eye on every lovely chair. So amazing!

The designer is “Ron Arad” (Israeli, Born in 1951).  He stands out among the most influential designers of our time in the industrial design, sculpture, architecture, and mixed-medium installation.

Inaddition, of course, there were not only these design products I love, but also the others weren’t displayed in MOMA this time. If u also appreciate this designer, u can go “HERE”. Enjoy it….

P.s Since I didn’t register the ESL this semester, I’ve felt my english getting worse……….How can I do?
