NYC





This weekend I decided it was finally time to head into NYC, so I caught the bus at the end of my road, which lead me to the train station I was surprised that including all the time waiting for the bus & train it took me little over an hour to get from my bedroom to grand central train station.
It was insane, I am so glad I went by myself, as I would just stand there and absorb it. I have to admit it is much smaller than I imagined it to be but it is 1000x more beautiful, the star consolations were okay but not amazing, the main thing that struck me was how it looked like it was this amazing 5* hotel, there were beautiful chandeliers, and the architecture was, for lack of a better word, incredible. I cannot describe the feeling of pure exhilaration and triumph as I walked along 42nd street and 7th avenue then as I came to the street corner which allowed me to see the first lights of time square, the realisation kicked in, yes Hannah you are in NYC, you made it!
It took me ages to absorb it, I couldn't quite believe I was actually here I reminded myself of Rachel Berry as I walked along broadway.


Going into the city was such an amazing feeling, I work long hours and as I said before I am tired much of the time, but somehow, being in the city gave me a rush of energy. I felt like I was completely refreshed and ready to face anything.

  1. Great read Hannah, I love what you wrote about Grand Central Station, I'm so excited to visit there myself and see the big clock, it will be very 'Gossip Girl' I imagine.

    Love the 'New York' episode of Glee reference.

    You have made and you should be so proud.

    See you soon xxx
