I think that all girls with low self esteem should move to New York. The amount of times you get called beautiful in a day chumps any state. Never in my life have I ever been complimented so much on a daily basis. I’m not bragging it’s just crazy. Do they see something that California men don’t? Is there something in the water, the pizza, the air? I don’t know.

I know I use the word random a lot but that’s the best way to describe this city. I see crazy stuff. Today for instance, I was just walking back from an audition. All of a sudden this guy in front of me drops all of his stuff and starts chasing another guy down the street. That’s it. I don’t know why, but who does that? It was reminiscent of Will Smith chasing that homeless guy down the street for his machine in The Pursuit of Happyness.

Later that day I went to this place called City Island with my godmother’s nephew. You have to drive there and you can see the water. It’s really nice for a non beach. Seagulls were replaced with New York’s state bird the pigeon. Now that’s not the real state bird. That of course is the bluebird, but you know I’ve never seen a bluebird. Rats and pigeons definitely. Question. How come it’s so much easier to make friends with guys than girls or is that only me? I’m definitely not opposed to female friends, it just hasn’t happened yet. My second question is why do people feel the need to stuff way too much food in their mouths? I mean it’s gross. Hamster (my new name for my godmother’s nephew) put more food in his mouth than I knew was humanly possible. And he isn’t the first person I’ve seen do this. It’s like hamsters that hoard their food. I have a theory. I think that these individuals come from families with lots of siblings and so in an effort to not have their food taken they stuff it in their mouths as quickly as possible. Like the person who licks their food in hopes that no one will want it. What do you think? Just a thought.

More random things that have no relation to one another…

1) Yeah so I just saw Step Up 2 and they stole my idea of dancing in a subway. Great now I’m going to look like a total copier.

2) I choose how well I do here. It’s dependent on how hard I work and I plan to work hard!!!

3) The best deodorant ever is Degree Clinical Protection. You put it on at night and when you take a shower in the morning you don’t even have to put more on. It like adjusts to your ph balance so you stay dry and refreshed all day. It’s like the best $7 I ever spent.

4) Did you know you can get syphilis in your back? No I don’t have it. I read it in the paper. Those subway rides are long, you must have reading material.

5) You know the shaky thing people like me do with their leg that gets on people’s nerves. That’s an actual condition called restless leg syndrome and there’s medication for it. I also read that in the newspaper.
