Art! Art! and more Art!

And yes I missed another day . . . it's not like anyone reads this anyway so it's not like anyone cares. So today I went to New York City to the Met to see the Alexander McQueen Savage Beauty show. (that dress to the left was one that I really liked) If you have not gone yet you should defiantly go before it ends. Which is soon. It ends the 7th. It is massively crowded though. There is a minimum two and a half hour wait if you aren't a member or a guest of a member. My dad became a member so my sister and I could go in as his guests but it was still really crowded in the exhibit it's self. You couldn't take one step in any direction without hitting someone. I like New York City. I would love to live there. Maybe I'll go to college there . . . I wouldn't mind that at all. But I still have a while before college. TT^TT The only think that isn't fun about going to New York City is waking up early and sitting in the car for a few hours. Oh well, it is always worth it.
The Met is fantastic though. Anyone could spend months there and still never run out of things to do. The Greek statues were spectacular. It is just amazing that with such simple tools they were able to create things that looked so real and perfect. I wish I had anything close to that much talent. Art is just amazing and there is so much of it in the Met.
Now I am starting to sound like an ad for the Met, but I loved it. There was a whole section on old musical instruments. Some of then were absolutely gorgeous. They just had so much detail it would blow your mind. There was a horn that was made of porcelain! And certain old pianos had opposite keys so the large keys were black and the smaller keys were white. There was a room full of medieval armor that I really wanted to look at but unfortunately we ran out of time we ran out of time before we could get a good look at them.
I am now going to watch some TV, bye!

P.S. The clock on this is really screwed up so it will say four something but really it is almost 8:30.
