New York Trip – Day Four


80+ photo for this one. Done lots of eating on day 4 while striking off a few spots down my list of must-go-places. It was a Saturday, Kevin and Kailin spent the day guiding us from East village to mid town. Weather was still as cold as usual and we were still not used to it.


↑ Profile picture status.

Satisfied our hunger at “Crif Dogs”

↑ East Village’s got a bunch of cool little restaurants like this one.


↑ Where else would you find another hot dog place with a disco ball?! Crif dog’s where the party’s at, son.

The epic menu:

↑ Read through it.

More cool things of this place:

↑ Fake wall.

Last but not least:

↑ Oh I miss you so..

The next destination:

We arrived around 4:15PM, which left us around an hour and 15 minutes for the exhibits. Though, I wasn’t able to tour the whole museum, I’ve gotten my share of inspirations. Mind blowing.

With valid student ID, you get a discount. Knew good thing would happen by keeping my worn out ID in my wallet at all time. It’s vintage now – the new “Aggie Cards” are replacing these. (Can’t even get on Unitran with these anymore.. whyyyy?!)


↑Flikr?

Quick shots of some of the works I came across:


↑Candies.

At the corner block of where MoMA is, we spot THE Halal Cart. The one everyone told us about.


↑ It tasted way better than how it looks.

The NBC studio!
…that we passed by.

“Creativity and Imagination shall be the stability of thy times.”


↑Augmented reality – where the screen displays the complete structure of the lego box set you hold in front of the camera. There’s different animations for each box set as well. CRAZY cool.


↑Kevin suggested having the carbonized Han Solo as key chains. Ditto.

Just a few blocks away on 5th Ave, there’s the Saint Patrick Cathedral. Pure epicness.

Inspiring to see dedicated photographers tweaking settings for that ONE shot.

Of course:

↑ Other than it’s a really nice shelter for the cold, it’s quite a remarkable structure. What more do you expect?


↑ It’s about the chin.


↑There’s a site for everything.

Wooot, time square!

We happened to be there at the right time where they held the Earth hour. Time Square actually shut down a few billboards for the occasion. We’re talking about 1 in 8760 hours that the billboard’s completely black. That’s a moment to be captured.

First store front I know that adapted the new logo.

The NYPD sign at Time Square made it look like a strip club. No joke.

One of the most entertaining Toys-R-Us I know. If the one near my house is as cool as this one, then I wouldn’t stop going when I was 20.

Check. That. Out.

↑ The T-Rex in the back moves and make noises. There were kids lined up waiting to get a picture with it.

A ferris wheel in. the. middle. of the building. wth.

Their own ice cream joint?!

Walking mascot?! I have NEVER seen a Toys-R-Us mascot in my life till now!

↑ Look how happy Tony was.


Yup, we did it.


↑ It was a bit dry, would’ve been better between hams and with the Coke on the side.


↑ All. man. The petite helmet that got stuck didn’t stop Kevin from becoming “Thor.”

Good times, next on the list is to search for dinner – food , yet again.

K-town.

And right before we knocked out cuz of food coma, we did some quick grocery shopping across the street at this place called: Woorijip.

↑ It’s a casual hang out spot where they provide an assorted selection of soju, snacks, and a space for people to chill. Good atmosphere, but not as good as home – so home we went.

..with a couple of desserts. We couldn’t resist.

Oh, we played this a lot.

It’s below my waist. You know what you owe me.

’til tomorrow!
