Monday 1st October; New York
The past day and a bit I have had the privilege of spending with my beautiful friend Naa in Boston. She attends Harvard- that’s it, you heard right, THE Harvard, THE Harvard College. YEP, THIS BITCH IS SEXY AND SMART. Annnnnnd an elite athlete. Gentlemen, may the best man win. I felt a weeeeeenyyy bit bad, I must admit. I was ever so sleepy for my time there. So I can imagine into the early...

ARGH
Just booked my transfer flight from New York to LA (leave JFK at 1pm, arrive LAX at 4.20pm, giving me heaps of time before my trip back to Australia at 11.30pm. I just didn’t want the plane to be delayed and to be in every kind of trouble and miss my flight home). AND! Also booked my bus on Saturday to Boston to visit Gnome!! I have to get to the New York bus terminal at 11am to collect my...

Tonight I saw ‘Grace’ at the Cort Theatre. It was incredible. I was a blubbering mess multiple times throughout the proceedings. Just beautiful. And I reallllllyyy should add: Paul Rudd was in it. As a lead (not THE lead, 3 out of 4 actors shared equal time on stage and held equal necessity). And I nearly said, ”Tonight I saw ‘Grace’ with Paul Rudd at the Cort...

Sunday 23rd September; New York
I had a grand old day today! Woke up nice and late, full from a dinner of Chinese food the night before. Had a wander around this evening, then made my way over to Rockefeller Plaza. Went up to the Top of the Rock and looked out over New York City all lit up ‘nd purdy like. And I made people in line laugh because in the area where you have to pose for a photo before you go in, everyone was...
My cousin and I watch a lot of SVU (we’re both now addicted) and the most recent episode was ‘The Midtown Rapist’.
Oh good, yeah, great, why don’t we just rape everyone who lives in Midtown New York, good plan.
And I do not trust Detective Elliot Stabler to deal with this issue- his anger management needs some serious work he just flies off the handle too easily and it...

Friday 21st September; New York
Starting to almost wish I was with my Travel Family at Oktober Fest in Germany. I DON’T EVEN LIKE BEER. It’s just that so many of the beautiful people I’ve met on my global wanderings have all congregated there. I keep getting messages telling me that if I’m still in Europe I have to come down, how amazing it is, so on, so forth. The word ‘dirndl’ has been...
OH AND I BOUGHT A BLACK WOOLLEN CAPE FROM A VINTAGE STORE FOR $20 AND IT IS RATHER LOVELY. So there’s that, too! AND A PAIR OF SUNNIES IN EXACTLY THE STYLE I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR. So again… look yeah yesterday was a really good day!

Thursday 20th September; New York
Yesterday I walked down to the Meatpacking District. I wish I could have spent more time down there, but I kept getting distracted by shops and sights on the way there, so took a good couple of hours to walk there. Pottered around the place a little, but looked at the time- had no idea how late it had gotten! And I needed to line up to get student rush tickets for a show tonight, which was about a...

ALSO! Because I live next door to a Chinese restaurant, the sweet, sweet smell of crispy honey chicken is always wafting around my apartment. New York does the greatest Chinese food. It takes every last bit of self-control I have not to run down and buy every single dumpling they have. Not to mention all the sweet n’ sour pork, chicken of every kind, fried rice…
Oh God I have to stop...

Tuesday 18th September; New York
Ahhhhhh what I delightful day I have had! I got up late morning to look out my window, only to see it was a wild and windy fall day in New York. All cloudy and misty, and a little bit rainy with the constant, ominous sensation that at any moment the clouds could open up and it would pour down. Beautiful!… But not ideal conditions for wandering to and around the Meatpacking District, as were...
Saturday 15th September; New York
It’s just about to tick over to the 16th, New York time. But today was absolutely fantastic! So my cousin took me to Williamsburg. Which is a HUGE deal for me, and I was buzzing and freaking out the whole time, because I’ve wanted to come here for YEARS. YEARS I TELLS YOU. And the shopping was fabulous, the wandering and people watching even more so. After an afternoon there, we went...

Something I completely forgot- I met a friend on the plane! My age, an actress, studying at the Lee Strasberg Institute this year! Amazingggg. The Lee Strasberg Institute is a big deal, too. Sometimes strange energies in the universe are at work. She sat next to me on the plane and I saw she was reading Strasberg’s ‘The Method’ and so of course I freaked out and finally said...
