The Morgan Library

Last week, I visited the Morgan Library & Museum for the third time! Admission is kind of expensive, but if you go on a Friday, it is free from 7PM – 9PM. Definitely take advantage of it! And if you love books, period rooms, and medieval art, you MUST visit at least once. The museum …

Met pins

Today’s post is of a different kind. A sad kind. Just wanted to share with you all the end of a colorful era. Click here to read about it! Starting Monday, the Metropolitan Museum will no longer be issuing these colorful pins as admission tickets :( If for ecological reasons, then it’s good. But I …

Macaron Day…Again! 2013

On March 20th of 2012, I went on my first extensive Macaron Day journey. I scoured New York City in search of free macarons! And I enjoyed it so much that I made sure that my class schedule this year would not interfere with my 2nd annual Macaron Day adventure. Yup, I put my classes …

Grand Central Centennial

One Reason Why I Love NYC

A couple weeks back, I discovered, through my friend’s photos, that the current Times Square/Grand Central Shuttle was transformed into a nobleman’s library. However, I thought it was a one weekend thing.  I just sat at home thinking, ah, so cool! If I had known earlier, I would’ve take the Shuttle to see it. But …

A Jumble of Things

It’s been a while! But for the first time in a long time, I finished my work before midnight! Happy! Okay, so I am going to use this post as a little update of the whatnots of my life and so forth. Last week, while sitting in my Japanese class, I thought, “What am I …
