RIP Student Metrocard

Today marks the expiration of my last student metrocard in my life. Thanks to the City of New York I have taken the bus/train for FREE three to six times a day as long as I have been in school. As long as it was Monday through Friday from 5:30am to 8:30pm. Thank you so much.

The Latest

Haven't blogged in suuuch a long time. At least for me. Check out what's been going on in my life:
I went to the circus on Wednesday 6/17. Cirque Du Soleil. I think of the four of us, my dad definitely had the most fun I must say. Furthermore, this past weekend I found myself downtown during the early morning hours, living it up. Friday/Saturday night I went to my friend Brittany's after-prom [even though I wasn't technically her date - she wanted me to be :) haha] Comedy Club party at Dangerfield's on 61 Street. And on Saturday/Sunday night I went to my friend Kimani's Graduation Party on 45 Street. SWEET WEEKEND.

Puerto Rican Day Parade

Fifth Avenue today was transformed into a sea of red, white, blue, and merengue. I stopped by for a while, mixed in with the largest crowd of people ever, at the 52nd annual PR Day Parade. Due to the great Hispanic population, specifically Ricans, NYC has the largest of all PR Parades in the nation [besides the fact that NY is the best at everything.] find more history about the event here. I think it's just a lot of fun. Especially for tourists, just to get a taste of NYC culture and that kind of stuff. See pictures below.

Graduation

It's all done.
I'm finally done with high school. Words really can't describe this feeling that I've worked sosoSOOO hard for this and it's finally materializing right in front of my eyes. The whole graduation experience was greatly amazing and everything I had hoped for. Such an emotional point in my life that truly only comes once in a lifetime. My elementary school teacher once told us that it's hard to make elementary school friendships that last for your whole life, but that high school and college is where your real friends come. I can honestly say that she was very much correct. With all the other young men I have grown up with these past few years, I have every intention of keeping in touch. It was truly a pleasure fellas.
