Pam's day of fun in the city pt 1.

My first foray into the city this Oscar season started with a train ride.
I sat, watching the sites go by. I saw old, dilapidated buildings, likely abandoned for years. Overgrown weeds mixed with graffiti and trash added color to the dreary walls and grounds. There was something strangely beautiful about these "ruins". After a relaxing jaunt, I arrived in Newark. What usually amounts to a short trip over to NY Penn became a half hour long wait in a stuffy, crowded train. There were single track delays and we were stuck for awhile. The conductor sounded just as bummed as we were so I couldn't even be mad. I had the pleasure of sitting next to Valerie (?), a spunky, ball of energy that thought I was funny and said she'd read my blog. (Hey girl!) Finally we were a go. I made it into the city and was on my way to the first stop: Lincoln Plaza Cinemas, for my double feature of Blue is the Warmest Color and Tim's Vermeer.

When it comes to movies, I really have a hard time critiquing, often times only saying "I liked it" or "meh, it was ok" or "I didn't like that at all" So I won't even pretend to critique these movies. Ill simply say I liked both. 

End of pt 1.

  1. Pam! Put the movie names in your post. It looks like you went to see 'Blue is the' and 'Tim's Verne' based on those tickets.
