In the mist of the night


[coming soon]

The White Queen and the Olympians


[February 15-MLK Day] On Monday I went to the movie theaters with my sister and my cousin to watch "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief." The movie was great, it had many elements I liked, such as the mythology stories [duh], mystery, and action. I have to say though that the movie was a bit predictable from the beginning. My guess would be that the adaptation from the book was cut somewhat short. At least that is what I hear from people who read the book. The movie was enjoyable though.


Before going in we had to make a line to enter the theater. So this picture [the blog pic] was taken while waiting on line. It's an advertisement for the upcoming Tim Burton adaptation of Alice in Wonderland. Anne Hathaway looks amazing in this movie, and from what I can see in the commercials I will like her character. I don't remember the “White Queen” from any previous adaptations, but then again I never paid any attention them, as I found the story itself quite boring. Perhaps this adaptation will change my mind about Alice in Wonderland.

Weihnachten Markt galore2


This time I took a look at the market in Bryant Park. Not set on a traditional way, the market is a series of cubic stores put in rows around the park. Basically they are mini stores, each cube has glass walls and a door. I did noticed that they sell more jewelry in this market, as oppose to Union Square that is eclectic merchandise wise. You can also enjoy watching the skaters in the rink.

Christmass tree at the Stock Xchange.


This tree is located at the front of the old stock exchange building in the financial district. We [Justin, Jeannie, Atanas, Chris] saw the tree after Tom's dessert party.

Weihnachten Markt Galore1


This one is located in Union Square; this particular market is big. I love Weihnachten markts, the first one I attended was in Berlin on my Nov 08 trip. You can find 'German Deligths' stand in this market, their glühwein is tasty!

The ending procession


This was the last moments of the procession and my day in Mulberry Street, Little Italy. Can't wait until next year :-)

The designer's market


This was a nice surprise. Located at the end of Mulberry Street, the young designer's is a fresh and schick place to shop for cool clothes and unique jewerly. Definitly a worthy place to check out.
