"Our First Night in Heaven"

As we all gather together in the lobby, we try and group together to find the best place to go to celebrate our arrival. As previously discussed, we all knew the first place we wanted to go was Madison Square Gardens as we were desperate to watch a New Yorks Knicks Basketball Game! As a major fan of One Tree Hill as well, once I found out they were playing the Charlotte Bobcats, I was extremely excited! It felt like us girls were a group just out of a popular American series! And so onto our first stop! When walking into Madison Square Gardens, the feeling was unreal, almost dream like. Immediately we all stood out like a sore thumb! About 8 blonde girls walking into an arena full of angry Rangers fans for the events that were on that night, we looked like we were in completely the wrong place, but the grins on our faces and the bubbling excitement meant we didn't mind. We got the tickets and despite learning they were pretty far back we didn't mind, it was the experience we went for not the intensity of court side! So after this we all decided to venture into Times Square, something a few of us just couldn't wait for! As we turned the corner into Times Square, my whole body felt like it was smiling. I was happy. I felt like I immediately belonged. The buildings were incredible and the lights shone like no other! It definately felt like a "concrete jungle were dreams are made of!" As we walked through my mind completely left food, I was too busy staring at everything around me, billboards galore, people everywhere. Things that particularly stood out was the the American Eagle billboard, I thought this was a great piece of advertising as it immediately captured your eye through its movement and bright daylight colours. The Calvin Klein billboard stood out also but for slightly different reasons. I massive poster of Jamie Doran in not a lot of clothing was enough to keep me occupied! But as the night carried on, we did realise we hadn't eaten for a long time, it was getting late and we were extremely exhausted from the travelling. We all went into Planet Hollywood and collapsed into the chairs, ( After having our photo taken of course! Though after the journey we'd had, and the extreme low temperatures we were experiencing outside-none of us looked top notch!) we all sat down and ordered our food.


After dinner we all headed back and headed straight off to bed. We were completely knackered and needed to save our energy for the following day...
