New York, New York–Day 1 Part 2

In the apartment! When my plane landed I went to baggage pick up where I was greeted by a bald short man with my name on a card… we went to the car then commenced on the drive to the building. Once I got to the building I got my key and came up to the room. Except there was one problem, I went to the fifth floor of the wrong building… someone told me the room I was looking for was in the second building, so I go downstairs go out the door to the enclosed sitting area and the walk ten steps to the second set of buildings J when I got inside I went to the fifth floor then went right into my room, when I got into my room there was one other model here, she doesn’t really speak English. Shortly after I arrived another girl showed up, speaking some English she said hello and told me how to get onto the internet… which is very helpful because with the internet how would I blog? Precisely, i wouldn’t, any who now you are all caught up.

New York, New York – Day 1

Currently I am sitting on the plane flying to New York; so far everything has been smooth sailing. My mother and father escorted me to the security gates after helping me check into my flight. True to my parents form they stuck by my side until we got up to the security gates. Once arriving at the first check point of the airline security system my parents ducked under one of the dividing ropes and watched from a distance as I handed over my ticket and passport to be inspected. Once passing this oh so simple test I continued to the x-ray belts, I removed my coats and shoes and placed my bags and such in the plastic bins. Then I watched as they disappeared into the x-ray machine. Once my things were successfully gulped up the x-ray thing I went through my own x-ray scanner, without a single beep I might add. To my joy I did not have to go through one of those high tech new body scanners, just the simple old one. After collecting my things and zipping my boots I walked to my gate, which was luckily the first one after security. I then sat down and waited. When they finally called my flight to bard at five forty eight I did just that, I boarded my flight. When I got to my seat I found that I had to share it with another girl, she seemed nice enough so I wasn’t upset. But then boarding ended and guess what, an empty row! That’s right, the empty row, oh you bet I jumped on that like white on rice. Sadly this is an emergency exit so let’s cross our fingers that this plane stays airborne until it’s meant to go down. Well I believe that gets you up to date with me, obviously this wasn’t posted until I got to the apartment but that is beside the point… stay close and I will have another bloggy woggy out soon!

So these are some of the before and after pictures from the book “Altered Clothing”. The first few sets are ones that I think are just downright bad.
