You should deffinatly hit up the manhattan mall on 6th av and 33rd street. Not sure if some body already said that (lol). And also maybe take the time out to see a broadway play. But a MUST do is to go around the central park area and take a horse and buggy ride on the street its very fun. Have a nice time!

^ a lot of the stores closed, and a couple of weeks ago, a lot of their basement floor and main floor stores closed, like brookstone, blades, and this one awesome japanese smoothie place ;[. they barely have anything there now. express and express men, jimmyz, and probably aeropostale are their only good stores, but those type of stores you can see anywhere ;o

QUOTE(agiri @ Feb 26 2008, 10:44 PM) You can meet Nick! Yes, you can! <- Personal tour guide. The manhattan mall is really really terrible now. I used to love that place but now it's not even worth going. Everything's closed and there's never anyone there.. and the architecture itself is depressing :(. Queens Center is where it's at, it's the bomb. There's SO much going on there. Must see! |

Michelle, try for a Broadway show. Normally they are like mad expensive. But you can rush for tickets. Here are the instructions:

NYC! I go to college there, so maybe I can come up with some things.
- Definitely try to see Rent, since it's closing in June. - Museums are always fun. I know they're free for students in NYC, but I'd bring any student ID just in case. There's a Museum of Sex that has a hentai exhibit which I think is a little weird and possibly a bit sketch, but I've been planning to go for a while. - Shopping: 5th ave, of course, then places between 34th and 42nd on Broadway. - South St. Seaport - there's a mall there, then there's also the Bodies Exhibit which is a lot better than the one that was in Houston for a bit. - St. Marks. I've never been, but my roommate loves going there. Lots of restaurants, shopping, etc. - Club Row (west 27th) if you're into that. There's a lot of 18+ clubs if you're not 21 yet. - Bleecker St. has a lot of cheap poster/thrift/record stores. - Lincoln Center - also lots of shopping (there's a mall) and you can try to see a few concerts. - Union Square - movies, some shopping, some clubs, etc. - Little Italy, Chinatown, etc. - in Chinatown, there's Canal st. if you're into knock-offs and cheap shit. - Jing Fong (on Chinatown) has AMAZING dim sum for a really good price. hm. yeah. have fun! |

^They're closing Rent? T.T NO WAYYY I have to rush it before it closes.
Chinatown recommendations: -Chinatown Ice Cream Factory -Elizabeth center for mad asian trinkets and other stuff. It's always fun to poke your head in there to see what kinda stuff they have -Either Joe Shanghai's (9 Pell Street http://www.joeshanghairestaurants.com/) or Goodies (1 E Broadway at Chatham Square). Both are essentially the same but my father said that the original owner/chef either started from Goodies or left Joe's to start Goodies. I recommend the soup dumplings (it's under appretizers on the menu) especially the crab meat and pork steamed/soup buns. Amazing. It's seriously some of the best outside of Shanghai. |

God... raining at Times Square = HELL. I wanted to die as I trudged through idiots... -_- I was so angry I stormed through a crowd with my umbrella and almost poked their eyes out. ^_^ - By the way, to anyone who cares, I saw Avenue Q. It was interesting to see puppet sex on stage. |
