Marvelous Monday

Today I almost slept in. Thank God Maureen woke me up around 8 giving me a half hour to get ready and get out the door. I had peanut butter toast for breakast and really good coffee not sure who makes it--Maur or Steve but its good. I packed up my study materials for the day and headed out Riverside Drive toward Broadway on 125th to catch the 1 train down to Times Square. Maur leant me a book to read, which Im doing on the subway, thats what NY'ers do on the subway read their papers, magazines or books. The book I'm reading is written by one of Maureen's Journalism Professor "Finding Manana" where she shares stories about Cuban exiles including her families. I'm enjoying it. I was in Class for 3 and half hours The topic was on Corporations and liabilities associated with it. Need to study that topic more. After class I had lunch not sure of the name but the food was good. I had a Panini and soup. I called home and spoke to Oasoeg, Mom, Aunt Anna and Seth today. I was looking for their advise on where to live. Got different views from them all. Then I went to the UN and listened in on the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Peoples for abut 45 Min's. Met 2 individals from India and Africa. Then off I went to the Bryant Park to study. I did my readings for tomorrow. (At least I hope so.) After studying I just wandered the streets of NYC. First time today I really had a chance to do this. I walked up 7th Ave then into Central Park, through Central Park to Broadway where I stumbled upon Barbara Walters. Of Coarse I got my picture taken with her. LOL---love NYC. I also hung out at the Barnes and Noble Book Store...3 floors of books. I met an old lady going up the elevator. She seemed nice and was excited for me...meeting Barbara Walters and asked to see my picture. She asked me if I was going to a book launch by a Journalist writing on Political perspective of women across USA. Now I am back with Maur and Steve and we are watching TV and I am Blogging.
