Entry 9 of 51 | show all | print this entry

Ok, today was slightly different. Full stop.

Today I met Caroline. A beautiful woman, who I had been conversing with on the Internet for nearly 3 months now (for most of you that don't know) This came about after I had stalked her on a contacts website. Ha ha. I'm not a psycho or anything, but i thought she was gorgeous. Anyway, 'nuff said. We arranged to meet at the Metropolitian Museum of Art. After meeting on the steps outside, we went into the museum. It was pretty cool. I don't go to too many art museums anymore (which is shame)since leaving College/University, but i had a good time there, just wandering around, laughing and chatting. Highlights were a lowered minimalist Japanese room and the Egyptian rooms. I mean the whole museum was cool though. It was really cool. If you come to New York, check it out.

After leaving, Caroline decided she wanted to see 'The Cloisters' exhibit. Had to get subway all the way up north of the island(it was miles away) By the time we got there, It dawned on us that the museum was closed along time ago. And then it started raining............really raining.....really hard. Being outside for 2 mins tops and i was wet through. Doh!!!. Decided to head downtown again towards Soho/St Marks Sq on Carolines recommendation It reminded me of Camden. All the shops and people having character, very alternative and hippyish. Was cool. Wandered around looking at shops, before deciding to go to a Thai Restaurant. Food was good. Caroline forgot to forewarn me her meal being remarkably hotter than mine(conveniently I reckon)It was like eating napalm. Much drinking of water ensued. I probably have tongue blisters.

Went and saw a film afterwards at an independent cinema called "Napoleon Dynamite" That is the funniest shit I have seen ever. Even more than Super Troopers. Laughed the whole way though the film and the whole day in fact. Mainly down to Carolines lame death attempts and cusses on my lifestyle and general "englishness". High points included me trying to move a cube that rotates when you push it (apparently), but when I tried, it didn't work. I looked like a twat. Caroline laughed. She must have known all along. She took the micky all day in general. It was pure genius. Had an amazing day. I had a list of all the insults and things she was doing. The list will be up shortly(its a big list). Said goodbye about 3 in the morning, and got back to hostel.

Some bloke sleeping in my bed when I got back to my room and I WASN'T gonna share :) Dammit, I'm all caroline'd out. Need sleep!!!Got another bed. Also, the guy next to me in the dorm. Was snoring all the way through the night, and when he wasn't snoring, he was dying REALLY loud. Everyone was telling him to button it, but i could imagine him secretly smiling at keeping us all awake. Very evil.

I wander if he's related to Caroline. She says shes evil. I've seen more bitterness in Santa Claus.

I hope all is well to people reading this
