A Wow Moment

Most native New Yorkers have never been to the statue of liberty unless they went in like third grade on a school field trip.

The empire state building is just another skyscraper on 33rd (I think LOL) that lights up in pretty colors at night.

And no one really knows why Staten Island exists except to have spawned Wu-Tang, and now that thats done, kinda wonder why its still there LOL. I guess Mob Wives still needs somewhere to film.

*shrugs*

My point is, I went to Lincoln Center today for the first time. I went to Julliard and sat on the steps and I literally felt music and dancing and theater in my soul. The students walking by with their instruments or ballet slippers thrown over their shoulders really gave me a sense of.... IDK. I could feel their desire and the way they burned for their art. You could almost see this one girl doing 8-counts in her head as she walked across the street. It was kind of amazing, and it actually felt like something I should be checking off my bucket list if I had one. Then it occurred to me that I dont [have one, that is] but I should.

There are too many things I want to do before I die, so my bucket list would look like What Chilli Wants out this muthafucka (ridiculous) but I think I could come up with a manageable few things that I would like to do while Im down here in the city - things tourists do all the time and I just never think to. Especially since there is a possibility I wont still be living here this time next year.

I need a couple of days to think about it, but the empire state building will probably be first since its only a couple blocks over from the building I work in. Lets see if I cant milk some milestones outta this here station. I'll try to have my list together by the weekend.

No. I will HAVE my list together by the weekend. (Im working on that too).
