Just the lightest dabs of rain on our hair and coats turned me on, and without thinking too much about it, I stopped walking and pulled her to a standstill as well. No need for words; merely a glance to the eyes and a firm but not-too-overwhelming union of two lips.

How I did it: Whatever I didn't spend on everything else, I funneled into photography. I even cut down on food and meals (which isn't healthy and recommended, I should say). I must have put the goal more than a year ago because since then I've acquired two bodies (Canon XTi and 5D) and various high-end lenses. With hard work and some luck, I'll be a photojournalist in the future. Read how I did it…
My friend and I ran into Time Square at about 3+ pm, and stood at 47th and Broadway. It was so tight that you couldn’t move around other than rotate your body on the spot. But the killer is the cold winds. It probably isn’t a problem for people coming from colder climates, but for others this will be a challenge — standing in the cold for 8 hours is a serious downer.
My friend and I left at 6pm.
I’ve not watched one, but three now! The first was “Rent” and then followed by “Beauty & The Beast” and “Les Miserables” on different trips to the Big Apple. I hope to catch a different show with every visit! =)
