Short trip with new dimensions
October 28, 2010 by Philipp
October 8th, 09.30 New York, everything is packed and ready for my short trip. First stop: Times Square, getting a nice mug in one of the tourist shops there :) It was not easy to find an at least nice looking one. But I managed it and I also managed to get a Taxi to Newark Airport. I had a really nice chat with my taxi driver who is used to be a writer, when not sitting in a cab. He told me a lot really interesting stuff about being a taxi driver in Manhattan. Unfortunately I forgot his name… I’m sorry. But I gave him the address to my website, so he might read this and if so, you want to write a comment with your name below please :).

Vollmond @ BAM
October 13, 2010 by Philipp
Stephanie and me went to the Brooklyn Academy of Music for the piece Vollmond of Pina Bausch. The play was part of the New Wave Festival at BAM and we where really lucky to get tickets because they were on really high demand.
After getting to Brooklyn, which was not that easy cause of certain circumstances like a not working ATM or a Q train which just stops in the middle of the track or a taxi driver who couldn’t find 30 Lafayette street or the two buildings of BAM one block away form each other…
It was an absolutely amazing and beautiful show!

Housing in NYC
October 4, 2010 by Philipp
Thursday I moved all my stuff (which are 2 luggages at the moment) to my final place in New York.
I’m living now in 36 St. Marks Place, Apt. 13, 10003 New York, NY. Feel free to send me whatever you want, I’ll be there till the end of december :P.
This is the fourth place I live in, while being in New York, so I’m pretty much used to move my stuff. Though this time was harder than the others, because for two weeks I had the small but very comfortable apartment of my uncle all for myself, while I’m now sharing a apartment with two three (there came up another one :)) other guys. Anyways, after cleaning up my new room it became pretty comfortable as well and after I renewed all the light bulbs I even have light in there (isn’t that great :)). Well, that must sound really bad now, but it isn’t. Did I mention that I can sleep now till 10min before school starts :) No? Well its true, because Cooper is just 5min away! And the roommates seem to be cool and easy going as well.
This really is some kind of jackpot, because housing in NYC is not that easy.
