Ten Things About.


Ten random things in NY that I keep forgetting to post.

1) The dollar taxi is actually two dollars.

2) Americans do not buy KFC.

3) EVERY item of clothing that seems to make less sense to wear in Trinidad, only for the sake of fashion, actually HAS a purpose here i.e. sunglasses- the glare sometimes is ridiculous, leggings- underwear in the cold, scarves- voice savers, boots- as boots. etc.

4) the high-pitchedness of the voices of American children trip me off.

5) Eat when you hungry. do not eat when you are not hungry.

6) it scares me that one of the most 'crime-ridden' cities as portrayed in mainstream media, is safer at night than Port of Spain on most given nights.

7) Americans don't get AIDS as much as we do in the Caribbean, because they get diagnosed with smaller, more trivial illnesses, maybe like kidney problems,flu, lung disease or something. Keeps the statistics down. damn liars.

8) Fruit and vegetables and the way they stalk you on every corner in them Korean green-grocer-shops, is a beautiful thing....also addictive.

9) Times Square is actually a rectangle.

10) Personal Space does not matter in Public transportation.
