Miss Erma's Journal
I really don't know what to do with this journal. I have an account at LiveJournal and I have a blog on my website and MySpace has a blog too. So many outlets, so little for me to say!
I dunno.
Hi.
Current music: Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out.
I decided I won't be going to Panama City Beach for spring break again this year. Instead my sisters got vacation time off during my spring break so we're going to Baltimore for a few days. I was there once but not long enough to actually see the place so I'd love to spend more time there. I found this website as a great guide to the sights and events in Baltimore so I'm sure my sisters would love to see some of the museums and shops suggested on the website.
Hopefully I'll be able to go to NYC next month also, on the Phantom of the Opera trip with SCSU. Cross your fingers that Betsy, Pam, and I can get tix! If not, plan B is the Beauty and the Beast trip they're going to be doing in April. Who knows, maybe I'll do both if I can! I'd love to! So I need to do some research and make a tentative plan on what I'd like to do & see while I'm there.
The last time I went to NYC was with my sociology class in my senior year. The class was popular only because everyone knew that the teacher always brought his students on an NYC trip at the end of the year. I was in a group of about 7 or 8 or so and we basically walked all over the place. We saw the Empire State Building, saw Times Square, dropped by the Disney Store, went into some huge multi-level mall, saw the narrowest building in the city/world, walked by Macy's, and a few other things. Oh yeah and we ate in this cute little restaurant in Little Italy. Then I bought some NYC-style cheesecake before we headed back. Fun times. I wish knew where my pictures are.
What I'd love to see is Chinatown, Times Square again (even though I could just catch a glance of it on TRL any day), and do some shopping. I want to take more pictures. Not just touristy pictures but pictures of NYC folk and the culture and the fashion and all that good stuff. I heart NYC.
Yeah boy!

That reminds me, I want to get another "I <3 NY" t-shirt. Maybe I'll buy a couple if I can find cheap ones. My old one is too big on me and it's faded.
To do:
- Find and print a map of NYC
- Make a list of places to go: museums, shops, *cafes*, restaurants
