money, gold, and arts

Yesterday, I was in the city with some people from my school for a trip to New York's Federal Reserve. Quick information: it's the place where golds from other countries are very well kept. And believe me, that vault is indeed very much secure five levels down Manhattan's ground floor. It's also everything about money, bundles of them. And I almost drooled when I saw a huge container with $46,000,000 worth of SHREDDED money. Have you seen Mad Money with Katie Holmes? Go picture. And before that, I stayed in school for a couple of hours because I had to be dropped off earlier than schedule, and I got to take some pictures.

Car wash in the morning.

You may say, "Ah, winter," but it was terribly cold yesterday I felt like my legs were coming off.

My Art classroom! My safe haven with pals Fabian and Steph. Sometimes we just crack up from drawing. We sit on the other side, near that ladder by the windows.

Filthy lockers for Art materials

This was the only time I got to use my camera inside NY Fed because apparently, no electronic devices can be used inside the building for security reasons.

I was tired on my way home. I felt like throwing up because we passed by McDonald's two blocks from NY Fed and had burgers and fries. I was drinking orange juice in the brisk cold outside after eating. Funny how all people looked so cold with as much clothing as possible. It's so cold these days people will celebrate if the temperature hits the lower 40s with suntan lotion!

Now you know why I anticipated the sun back in Cali too much.
