im currently on my way to new york (i know... again!) this time, im going completely by myself (besides staying at a family member's house). its been so long since ive traveled that i cant lie idk what was wrong with me, i just got so anxious, and i couldn't sleep because i felt like vomiting on my first bus. was there anything for me to be uspet at? not really. i just was for no reason. and i hate that so much.. like boy there is no reason to be acting like that 😭😭

my first plan for this trip was to visit all 5 bouroughs of NYC, as ive only been to 2 (i know..) i haven't been to queens, brooklyn, or staten island. however, i dont think ill be visiting the bronx (as there's nothing i can think of im interested in doing up there) and there's only like a 50/50 chance of me visiting staten island if i get bored. so its time for me to figure out what to do.. i only know i need to get my laptop fixed and buy new shoes (so, sorry, but that means i cant update for awhile while it get fixed :p)

see you later~

ive been in NYC for 3(4?) days now, and to be honest, my vacation hasn't really been amazing. for one, ive been pretty sick (although to be honest i dont even think its sickness, its my nerves and anxiety making me sick) like my stomach has made me feel like im gonna vomit and yea i been exploding the toilet. maybe i have the lettuce virus ngl (i havent had lettuce so idfk). anyway, so let me recap my last few days before i forget...


tuesday:

  • arrived in the afternoon after a long day of commuting
  • i went to drop off my suitcase with this one company, and it cost me $10.50...
  • my phone was about to die and i really had to piss so i went to the library for an hour
  • i went to the apple store to get my laptop fixed and they said it was gonna cost $580 just to repair my camera so i left.
  • i walked for almost an hour trying to find a momo food truck and couldnt find it so i ate some pretty good food from the grocery store

    • wednesday:

  • something was just throwing me off all morning to the point where i almost cried in the park. i called my mom and just got kinda mad at her😭 i spent too much money on coffee & breakfast
  • i did some shopping, i spent around.. cough...90$ at a few different stores. i went to zara for the first time and i LOVE their clothes actually and i was complimented multiple times there so i love you zara!!!
  • i facetimed my friend in the line store bcs i had no idea they had ateez stuff there it was so cute. i dont rlly like kpop anymore but i almost bought the little yeosang mascot plush thing cause it looks so funny

    • thursday:

  • today is like the start of some BTS event in grand central and ironically i was wearing all red which is the theme of their album. a really sweet stranger took my pictures for me infront of the big sign (yay!)
  • i went to queens for the first time and it was like a whole different country. there were people EVERYWHERE, and everything was 100x times more expensive than manhattan somehow?? a coffee was going to be NINE DOLLARS so i deadass just left the cafe.
  • i spent around 50$ at this cute anime store, i got a lot of venti stuff (ive really wanted to do oshikatsu while im here. so ive been lugging around all my merch) and some love and deepspace stuff for my bestie
  • an akechi plastic stand was 35$. should we all just gift ourselves
  • kura sushi has a persona (3,4,5) collab starting on the 1st but its too expensive and kinda sucks.. kaiten zushi nomad is much better
  • i tried to open the LADs gift for my friend and it had a razerblade in the barcode. why?
  • i went home early around 4:30. i had a mental breakdown at night because i was literally so fucking broke. i thought i had more money than i did and i was just more sad bcs there's this concert i wanted to go to that i just dont have the money for...
  • i didnt sleep very much at all bcs my dear friend is at hoyofest for me in singapore and kept calling me about stuff at the venue. and i felt so bad because apparently all the merch was sold out... but that means I GOT 47$ BACK AND FELT MUCH BETTER.
