Weekend Update

     
Rug stuck in door
     Another Monday, another recap of a fabulous weekend.  I shared a few beers Friday night with a couple of good friends and then awoke Saturday morning to go meet one of my best friends in the whole world at Penn Station.  Megan was to arrive at 10:20 and I told her I would meet her there.  

     Well, when I went to leave my apartment around 10, I discovered that the night before I had close my door on the rug, and the rug and door were refusing to budge. The Super came to my rescue and after climbing in through my fire escape, he was able to open my door and free me.  Just in time for Megan to arrive at my apartment.     

Evolution Store
Ramen Burger!
Once Megan arrived, we traveled to Williamsburg to visit Smorgasburg and try the famous Ramen Burger.  The 15 minute wait was well worth it and we also enjoyed a few other treats while soaking in the sun and enjoying the view of the NYC skyline.  We then went back into the City and visited a sweet exhibit by Lee Bul, stared at many a cool object at The Evolution Store, and then just wandered around SoHo.  I then took Megan to dinner at my favorite China Town restaurant, Wo Hop.  It was my first time eating there where I actually haven't had to wait in line for at least 15 minutes! (Not sure if that is a good or bad thing though…).  

Art exhibit
     After dinner Megan and I got to Skype with our best friend Krista, who is in Ecuador for the Peach Corps right now.  It was so great to see her face and speak with her.  Megan and I then got ready for a night out on the town and ended it by enjoying some late night Insomnia cookies.  Obviously. 

     Sunday I just spend being extremely lazy and lying in bed most of the day.  Just the way I like it.  Hope your week is off to a good start!

Pork Buns

Pork bun heaven
     Sunday night my friend who I have been crashing with took me on a stroll through Soho and then out to a delicious dim sum restaurant. Nom Wah Tea Parlor (13 Doyers Street) is the name and I suggest you all visit it. Our dinner cost a grand total of $14 and I was stuffed. Which is hard to do considering how large an appetite I have. (Side note, if you like oddities and skulls, go to the store Evolution--very cool place.)
Sticky rice--not a huge fan...
   
     On Monday I began my dual job experience. So far, so good (I am only 2 days in though so thats not really saying much…). At my more formal law firm job I am working on a project centered around a New York Non-Profit Revitalization Act that Governor Cuomo just passed (don't worry I won't bore you with the details of that). At the record label I have been thrust a handful of different tasks that have really had me in a frenzy. The thing about law internships is that you sometimes have no idea what your superior wants from you and you just have to do what you think they want to see and hope for the best. I have yet to be publicly scolded so I think I am on the right track.


TOMORROW IS HUMP DAY.
