Woke up at 6 50 went out for a 20 min jogg took a shower had my cereal breakfast a left for work. A simple routine that should be followed by a chill ride with the subway but of course I jump in my train which "happyly" turns to be out of order so I have to take the train to the other end where I am supposed to take the xpress train to manhattan. All godd but as you kbow me instead of taking the xpress I take the local train which lead to missing lovely miss liberty boat. Anyway I got late to work had a easy day. Meet some very nice tourist and decided after work it's time to reunite with the Brooklyn Bridge. There is such a beautiful park down the bridge I will just have to try starting uploading picture cause it's just marvellous!!The people are having an outside yoga class. It's a bit tricky. When your in Europe you think USA ppl are unhealthy and that NYC is loaded with skyscrapers.. That is not all true. Today I walked across Prospect Park. So huge, so green so alike English Garten in Munich. People jogg, bike, play volley and a looot of baseball. It feels like you left NY and your at a different place. I walk like a lost tourist and made it finaly out of the park exactly at Gand Army Plaza. It's a huge triumphal arch that gave me the impression of being in Berlin again. Lovely but exhausting at the same time and ps I got a call for a 2 nd job. Who knows?!
Another story:
I bought myself a book from national geographic and decided I wanna go to all the pictured places from the book. Yesterday I seen small and cozy( but also filled with homeless ppl) washington square park and 42nd street famous streetball courts(as per my friend). Ended up in Bryant Park and watched Psycho movie, old black and qhite movie from long time ago. I wish I'd remembere the name of the well know actress.. that's so tipic me.

A regular day at work
I so like workibg atthe kiosk!! I get 1 day perweek in the kiosk besides this I have to work in the Shuttle(Hot dog station) what I don't really like. There are some ppl who make it totaly uncomfy to work. The one is bossying around and the other acts totaly childish.Nevermind.Today was great I talked to so many ppl. Ieven got some Sachisch people from sibiu who moved 25 years ago to Germany. Some really lively guys from England, a profesor from France and much more. It's really amazing to have a job af which you have a lot of conttact with different cultures. Did you know that Moldavia has the biggest winegarden worldwide? You can drive underground through it. It ga like 8 km.
ok friends, my boat made it to NYC.
Cheers
PS subway service sucks:)

MTA the "great" subway metwork in NYC
Let me tell you how pissed I am right now! I woke up on time had my ceareals talked to my mom on my way to the subway station and than even got when the R train arrived in the station. So I jump in put my music on and start reading. While I'm doing this I hear a annoying voince on the background. Guess what, suddently the R train decided to become an F train. Quite normal right? So I am on the wrong way to work. I have to get put walk 4 blocks and catch my actual train. Maaaaan, and it's a 2 nd timer thing. I onve taugh of taking the E express train but of course the train probably decided to piss me of and became a local E train.
One more thing:"we are currently delaid by train traffic ahead of us". Really? At this things Germany was the best. It never happend 5 month of my staight in Munich. How can there be auch delays?? In Germany if you gaet delayed by a subway train you call and get a notice which you can show at work. Cause afterall you're not responsible on thos.
Happily I won't be late today but still time is money. MTA move you coolio!

It's around the village and it's crouded with lovely people. I got into a cafeteria and those teo handsome probably whole hearted guy told me there is smth open so friday morning there's where I will get my coffee. I am happy.Imagine I am also in a recruitment process in Bucharest. I havr the most special ppl back home and I do miss my gougeouse smart charming hang out frriend. I hope you figure it out it's you and that I do miss the good times. And all you aroubd home or whereever i love u and miss u all that is in it.

One of those things you won't expect in USA
First of all let me tell I moved out and live now in a gorgeouse house! I've been running around to get myself a 2nd job but with no lucky as those who were interested need me in the morning shift. Besides this I've been walking a lot in NY and already found my favorite place I'm not sure how it's called but there usedto be a bridge railroad that has been abandoned. Someone though work on a project fir this railroad. He had in mind to make a park out of ot and marvolously succeded! If you ever visit NY promise me you won't missthis spot. You could also take a date with you up there but keep in mind that it's only open till 22:00.
So..let's get to my title topic. I am exremly surpised about the telecommunication in USA. It's the worstes ever. Signal is very poor and none on the subway. If you call a toll free number or are called you still lose minutes as It's "airtime" that you are using and furthermore, you have to pay for the sms's you receive!! This is crazy compated to my homecountry..
I've also tried to print and copy my resumee but it' really expensive.It's about 20cents a page or more. I just remember it's expensive. 1 hourof internef service in Manhattan is 18$.I'm stunned!
So that was kind of it. Regarding today I had a grea lunch. Our HR Stuff cooked us very good tasting pasta, garlic bread and made us some salad. It was delicious! Nothing compared to all the food served on the island. I've enjoyed it!
Wish me luck as tonite I will go apply at some online jobs.
Have a grea day as I had :)

I do like my job
Weird thoigh but I like it. I used to work in the office sit all day surf also the.internet and now I am a cashier and maybe hot dog maker and I am amazed?!It's pretty nice to work on Liberty Island I get to talk to a lot of tourist daily and the company Evelyn Hill Inc it's pretty good. We get free lunch, free ride to the island, changing time , trainings, pizza kick off meeting and there are a lot more to come. Although we are here only for the summe they really train us. Did you onow that 94% of our garbage is recycled an that we use the used cooking oil for some generators? They also try to fet food healtier and they are aware of it. Ithink it will take a looot but they accept it. Today at the kick off meeting I won a T shirt and a Can because I knew things about the statue. Imagine a tourist can ask you anything you just have to know the answer!!Anythingeven where the subway station is :)))
My day was really awesome.I worked with the Serbians and a girl from Jamaica and we had lots of fun.
I do like us. Even more than my office jobs. Maybe it's early to say but I enjoy it. We get also respect from ou managers and as is it a family owned business we got also to talk to the owner.
I can't complain. And let me tell you the statue of liberty at night, gorgeous!!!
Besides all the working though i did visit a campus today. It was nice I saw some step dancing on the street si people singing and the campus itslef is nice. You smoke are not aloud to have any alcohol in the campus or to smoke in the building. Furthermore you are not alowed to bring visitors and you can stay in boys rooms only with the open door.
I am happy : D New york ha so much to offer! Cheers :*
