"can you say shopping?!"

read perrin's blog first pleeeeaaassee: Perrin'sblogisnotascoolasdaniel's.com

9 words: I am about to write a lot more words. I really don't even know where to begin describing Perrin's trip, but being an engineering major, I can tell you that Perrin+any possible scenario=an avalanche of energy and excitement. So New York is probably no different than a trip to E Hall. seriously though. (as a side not I would like to say that everything I write is 100% serious. so though it is not necessary for me to write "seriously though" after the things I say, I will. like Perrin) There is so much to write about, (and perrin only gives me so much material at a time) so i've (Perrin has) decided to break it up by day. so today is day 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have decided to tell this one from Perrin's perspective. here it goes:

On Friday night, I ate the best sandwiches I have ever had in my life. One would even say the taste of these sandwiches did not have an end. unlimited even. Then our journey began. and then it ended.

We arrived that night at the hotel in New Jersey. This was not primarily a place for us to stay, but a business stop for my mother's exterminating company. "When you can't Dubugs, Duvall"

Before we were allowed to sleep, mom had to search for any pests in the hotel. Once the room was cleared, we were able to try and get some rest. Just as we were settling in, tragedy struck. I began laughing so hard that my heart stopped. I literally died. seriously though. It was one of the scariest moments of my life. EMT was called in and I was eventually revived. phew.

Saturday we moved on to a new hotel in New York. it was brand spankin' new. (I, Daniel, don't even know how to make fun of this. she typed out "spankin'" in her blog). and then like omg, can you say SHOPPING?!?!?!?!???!??!!?!?! it was totes not what I was expecting. there were like all these like vendors. and they were like "buy this" and i was like, "uh, no". and then i realized i was way to cool for them and started ignoring them all together. seriously though.

After that we went exploring a few of the many fun places in New York.

This is my dad getting lunch in china town:

This is a few friends we met in little italy

All they wanted to do was find mushrooms and race go-karts. weird. seriously though.

From there we walked down to soho. can you say shopping?!?!?!?!? there were all of my favorite stores all together! I have never been more excited in my life! and then something unheard of happened. I looked at the prices and started to feel the excitement slowly drain out of me. I couldn't even say shopping. I then ran as fast as I could down to the gap. after purchasing A handful of turtlenecks for moderately cheap prices, All was right in the world once again. We then went back to china town for dinner and ate at a restaurant called amazing 66. it was amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing amazing

(and yes that was amazing 66 times) right across the street from us, at another restaurant, Johnny Depp was arguing with with Queen Elizabeth II (the queen of england) about who loved me more. they began screaming about who was better friends with me, Perrin. seriously though. okay i lied. but seriously though. but i did make it up. but seriously though.

and then for like the 10th time today we got more food. this time dessert. but we did not go just anywhere. we happened upon not just any restaurant, but the one that has the best cannolis on planet earth! that right. there are no better cannolis anywhere else anywhere. not even in italy. this was the top of the line. I ordered, not a cannoli, but a bomb! (which the restaurant does not have the best in the world of) not seriously though. well seriously, but not seriously. It was a peanut butter gelato ball covered in chocolate with caramel drizzled on top and in the very middle there was a gooey caramel center. yumm! it was the bomb diggity!

"it was the bomb diggity"

...

you may be thinking, "daniel, what a very unfunny pun you just threw into a very clever and witty blog" Well, in fact Perrin herself wrote this joke. and she thought it was funny. so don't judge.

that pretty much wraps up day 1 in "the city that never sleeps" i'll talk about day 2 tomorrow and day 2 was one of my favorites! we are headed up town to times square, central park, and BROADWAY!! seriously though.
