DAY 3:  
WORLD TRADE CENTER & BEAUTIFUL NIGHT VIEW!

http://ameblo.jp/eternalkirichan/entry-11248243524.html

We went to the World Trade Center memorial Park. They weren't done building the 1WTC, but it was still pretty enough! The museum wasn't done either but they had different things recovered from Ground Zero in the gift shop. 

There were so many people there, but it was so quiet. The loudest sound was the sound of the waterfalls...



After visiting 1WTC, we went to Century 21. When I saw the entrance to the store, I got excited because it looked so cool, but when I went in, I was actually pretty disappointed. The store was very big, but it was also very crowded, stuffy, the staff was rude, the clothes looked like things out of a flea market, and everything was way over priced. While R shopped around, I left and went to go get Pizza, then Starbucks, then sat outside for about an hour waiting. 

We walked around a bit, did some more shopping and sight seeing....

........and then headed back to Brooklyn to see the amazing night view of the city. We also went to a bar in R's guide book, ate, and got a little tipsy. We ended up drinking about $100.00 worth of drinks. 

In other news, something weird happened today. I've been using the same face wash for the past two months and it's been working just fine. Today, after washing my face, I suddenly started breaking out! Looking now, there are about 12 spots. They don't itch or burn or anything but ugh....I don't want to look at my face. Maybe it's time to switch my face wash.

I took so many photos that deciding which ones I use has been so difficult. I never thought there would be so much beauty in the middle of the city.

I'd really like to visit NYC once. =) When I think about it, there are many places I still want to see - now that I am not free (financially yes, but not with time) anymore I suddenly notice how much of Europe I haven't seen. *headdesk

My friends used to always ask me about different places in America and I felt annoyed that I could never answer because I had never been to the main US. Now, I'm trying to see as much as I can before December.

Neutrogena Daily face wash. The one that's in a yellowish bottle.

I have yet to make it to NYC, but it looks like it'd be a wonderful place to visit! I especially love city lights at night picture :D

Oh man, your face soap. I have a feeling that it could be some kind of allergic reaction. But taking into consideration that the bumps don't itch...i don't know o.o I use the Clinique bar for oily skin and that works wonders for me c:

I always prefer night scenes to day scenes. Parks and such are beautiful during the day, but there is something so romantic about illuminations...^^;;

I used to use Clinique a few years back and I really did have an allergic reaction to that. After that, I was using Biore up until a few months ago, before switching to Neutrogena. I can't understand why this is happening >.< I haven't had any new bumps, but the ones I have now still just sit there. They're fading a bit but...

After two months for this to suddenly happen. Odd.

Ah gift shop, funny how tragedy is so easily turned into profit.

Glad you enjoyed yourselves though ^^

Yeah, I was a little iffy about it myself, but as they use that money to fund the place to keep it free, I guess I don't mind too much. At least they don't charge an arm and a leg.

Thanks =)

All the times I have been to NYC I have never done anything touristy, I really want to (my tattoo artist is there and I went once to see the Dalai Lama speak for two days). Great photos!

Thanks!
I never get to do anything touristy, so I found it extremely fun walking around with a map trying to figure things out.

"An ugly duckling growing out of her feathers."

Hello. I'm Zia, and this is most obviously my journal. I write about my life between Japan and the US, and all the adventures I find myself in. People often say they are envious of the life I seem to live, but the truth is, I feel a little unsatisfied with it myself, so I've decided to do something about it--to find what really makes me happy. Hopefully by documenting my life, I can figure out where I need to be heading. This journal is my way of opening my world to those around me in hopes of meeting people searching for the same thing or encountering people who have already gone through this kind of struggle. 

Back in my high school days, I used to be a bit of a nerd. I was really in to comic books of all kinds, action figures...all that jazz.  These days, though my interest in comic books re-surfaces every so often, I'm very much more in to things like fashion, dance, music, travel, tea, baking, writing letters, photography, animals and fitness. I'm a straight shooter--meaning I do not (or rather, can not?) lie. Keeping up with lies is too much trouble. 

Anyway, there is more information about me on my profile. Feel free to take a look there or catch me on another site★
