The End of June

A day off today so it's time for some activities. Around 1pm, Kww, Sakura, and me met Sky for lunch. We ate at a place called 'Restaurant Malaysia' (oh, the irony of the name LOL) which pretty much said what kind of food it serves. Food was okay here as it is quite the same taste as the food found in my home country, Malaysia.

After that, the three of us set off on a trip to the Statue of Liberty. Sky did not join us as he had a class to attend. We took the number 1 train to Southferry Seaport, bought a ticket for the ferry, and off we go. The weather was pretty good, with the sun shining, some nice breeze and all. Seagulls tried to fight against the wind but gave up in the end and floated along with it. The ferry was a little rocky and the waves a bit rough because of the high tide. On the ferry, I met a Russian girl named Kez. Pretty good looking and should be around her 20s. I kinda admired her because she traveled alone to visit places of interest in New York. Chatted with her for a while and then said our goodbyes as the ferry reached the island.



This is my second time to visit the statue (which I found to be quite plain) and there's really nothing much to do. The only thing we can do is take pictures and more pictures. There's a small souvenir shop that sells memorabilia, paraphernalia, and stuff. After going one round across the statue, it's time to head home. The ferry stopped next at Ellis Island and we headed down. Just then, the accumulating bad weather turned on us and drizzles of rain began to fell. There's nothing we could do and we queued up again for the ride home to NYC. It was very packed and humid as the rain fell harder and harder. Not exactly a comfy situation but we just have to bear with it.



We got on the subway next and stopped at Grand Central to see if the rain has subsided. It was still raining heavily so we took the number 7 train home. We then ate dinner at a restaurant (Chinese name) and at last, we went out seperate ways home. All in all, it was quite a fun day at first but turned boring in the end. I hate rainy days, made me all wet as I didn't carry an umbrella.

Well, this is the end of June and July begins tomorrow. Half a year passed by in an instance. Time is a really scary thing, seems to fly by and waits for no one. Hopefully, the rest of the year will be a better one for me. Godspeed.
