I hear chocolate eclairs calling out my name

When I let myself remember, I always have an anchor so that I can keep hold of reality and the finality of it all. I allow my self-berating pity to wash over for a bit and I'll snap out of it. And remind myself not to lose my cool or to let anyone get under my skin because I should have known better. Seriously. I have 1 hour left till I leave for badminton and practice at night and I've 2 unprepared seminars and a pounding headache. I need to get a grip on myself to shake some order and priorities back into my life.

You just can't outrun some things. Best to meet them head-on and get it over with.

This is Fashion Avenue & 34th Street. My first foray alone into NY shopping and I love this place. That Fossil shop is where I bought my watch and has this absolutely gorgeous Filipino Chinese salesguy who was raised in Brazil and looks like my godbrother. Forever 21 there is absolutely kick-ass and beats 1U's F21. But I still like the one in Soho better. =)I was snapping a random street pic when those 2 friendly workers waved for me to take their picture with very cheerful grins. What's a girl to do but to snap? (Eventhough New Yorkers were jostling me and probably cursing cuz I was blocking the flow of pavement traffic...)
Say hello to Times Square everybody! That huge building in the middle does not need to be rented out for office space because all the flashy advertisements on it covers the rent.
After a nice Japanese meal at St Marks, my sis went off to meet some friends while Robyn and I decided that the night was still young and we went to people-watch and gossip at Starbucks. We also got home at 2am that night because we didn't know better and waited forever for a train that stopped running after 10.30pm. I miss the abundance of Starbucks that can be found on every street corner. I want a special hot chocolate with tons of whipped cream right now!!!
