Series of firsts > First time in the Big Apple!

So...........

i was seated there

in the office

minding my own business

when an email from IEE came through

some forwarded email

for internship grants

am like...oh well....never hurts  to try!

and that's how i found my self

in the Big Apple

year is 2001 (i think)

interning at Equality Now

for 6 weeks!

Imagine that! 

and being summer, with the long days

i wondered around each corner of NYC 

solo traveler

every evening!

not even scared!

took the bus

took the train

went to Staten Island

went to Brooklyn

went to Madison Square Garden

went to Times Square

Sat in central park

went for dinner at the Twin Towers
