I am officially a New Yorker!! WEEEEEE~ I'd have to say.. The big apple is a lot more different than Cali for sure. To go over briefly the differences that I have seen while being here for four nights, is that : NYC is much more loud whether it's the streets with all the taxis' honking or its at restaurants where several people are eating together. I definitely need more time adjust to all these differences but i think once I am adjusted, I'll love it just like everyone else that come to New York for college.
Mom and Dad left today at 2:30. I really thought it wouldn't be sad departing but I guess I'm a lot more emotional than i thought! Because I did cry haha. Just couldn't hold it in because before they left, my parents kind of got into an argument like usual. And mom got sick all of a sudden from doing too much especially because she just came back from Korea not to long ago... But I just felt bad because I feel like I'm kind of starting to understand my mom and how she's disappointed at my dad. I think its also because I just got like a wave of emotions and I realized what a great mom my mom is. But yeah..
Today we met in our orientation groups and our orientation leader, Eva, took us around town to cheap and good tasting places. I took notes on my phone and I have a lot of places to check out now! Eva was kind of intimidating at first especially because she just seemed like a person that didn't give a crap about anything, but after getting to know her she turned out to be the absolute opposite of what I saw her to be. She said she was half black and half indian, which was cool because i never met anyone that was mixed like that. She definitely had black features as well as indian features. At first glance she looked like an indian but after seeing her close up, her voluptuous lips and wide hips brought out her black side. But aside from that, I would have to say that it was enjoyable and tiring!
One thing I need to do is get out of my comfort zone! But it's so hard!! I feel like a lot of people are shy but its funny how a lot of the shy people are asians. HAHA i guess we're just not confident? BUT i cant categorize people like that so... But yeaah. Gotta work on that!
Im super tired so I'm gonna go to bed because its late and i have to get up early tomorrow for my first orientation meeting!! EEEP not exactly excited but more scared lol. but i shouldnt! so ill pray and sleep haahha :)
