1025-26 Roosevelt Island and Lucky Broadway show-Wicked @ Welcome to My World

這週開始同學慢慢變多了，從一開始的兩個同學到這週已經有五六個，也比較有機會認識新同學！午餐和同學一起買了韓國城的東西到Herald Square Park在陽光下吃飯。

(I got new classmates this week, now we have more than five classmates in the class! We bought Korean food to go, then we ate at Herald Square Park.)

這位韓國同學跟我一樣有下午課而且也同班，下課後我們去逛Kmart後還一起吃了速食餐。這算是好的開始，要多認識一些新朋友啊!

After afternoon class, we also shared hot dog combo and a burger meal with my new Korean classmate. It’s a good beginning to know more new friends!

隔天中午，我突然想吃湯麵，問了同學她們要吃Pizza，我只好一個人去韓國城裡面吃越南河粉了，還加點了看起來很像珍珠奶茶的飲料來喝看看。(The next day, only me wanted to have soup noodles, so I went to a Korean restaurant to eat Vietnam beef noodles ( I know it sounds weird.) I also tried a smoothies like pearl milk tea. Tasted not bad, but too expensive! ( 16 bucks) ps. They always think I am a Korean too.

我的巴西同學(有點不確定是巴西還是西班牙)在下午課教我們跳森巴！我好想學所有好玩的東西喔!

This afternoon my Brazilian classmate taught us Samba, so interesting. I want to learn everything!

帶著愉快的心情下課後，跟舊金山韓國同學Shinil(名字發音跟我的名字很像)會合後，一起去搭Roosevelt Island的纜車。先坐地鐵直接到那哩，再坐纜車回曼哈頓。在那之前我們先欣賞East River上皇后區橋(Queensboro Bridge)的美景。(After school, my Korean friend, Shinil,( whose name pronounces similar with mine) and I went to take Tram to Roosevelt Island.

Getting closer to admire Queensboro Bridge is amazing. We were lucky that the weather was so nice! We took lots of pictures, because of the marvelous view.

這裡就是坐Tram的地方(我還問了旅遊服務中心，她們說她們稱叫Tram,雖然也是Cable car啦。)看一下結構和台灣的纜車有什麼不一樣？不知道為何台灣的纜車總是人擠人？

(Where we take the Tram is nice and peaceful. I asked the information center, and they said they just called it “Tram” instead of ”cable car”. In Taiwan, cable cars are popular, always crowded on weekends.)

最近在找房子，看到這裡就覺得真想住在這裡，可以欣賞河景的地方一定很貴！

( I am looking for a residence. When I see the building, I wish I were rich enough to afford the rent!)

用地鐵卡就可以乘坐，從Tram上面看過去的河景和市景非常漂亮。

( We can take Tram by monthly pass. The different way to view NYC!)

裡面有像是司機員的在控制，總長大約10分鐘左右。

(There is a kind of driver to control it. The travelling time is around 10 mins.)

回到曼哈頓，從這頭欣賞纜車的路徑和川流不息的車流。

(We were back to Manhattan. From this side, we could see the busy traffic.)

再坐Tram回Roosevelt Island，這樣兩頭的風景都看得到。

(We took Tram back to Roosevelt Island for seeing two sides of views.)

回到曼哈頓，我們去試了百老匯秀Wicked的樂透抽獎，為了贏得便宜的打折票。趕在六點結束前投下我們的名字。(We went to try lottery of Wicked for getting discount tickets. It’s the most popular Broadway show so far! Before 6 o’clock, we signed our names to win tickets. He was rolling to get 15 lucky names!)

每個人都希望自己是幸運兒！(Everyone thinks they will be the winner!)

我第一次去試樂透，我的朋友就抽到了!我可以一起共享便宜的票! 他這次是第二次，我跟他講是我因為我帶來了好運!

(OMG! Shinil got it! He was so excited! We won cheaper tickets! I believed I brought luck! )

原價126美金的票，我們只付了26元，兩個人共省了200元！

(Let’s check the regular price. Our seats cost 126.25 USD! We spent 26 USD to watch the show. We saved 200 bucks.)

我們的坐位在舞台前的第一排，而且是正中間！

( We sat at the first middle row in front of the stage.)

我們發揮了亞洲人的精神不斷的拍照!

(I took thousands of pictures, because I am from Asia!)

After a quick dinner, we went back to the theater. It was taken in the lobby.

Inside the theater, it shows all stuff related to the show.

The stage and the seats. It’s hard to take pictures inside here, but I still took some for you!

The orchestra was just below of our seats.

The show is talked about a witch…all right, I admitted I didn’t know about it before I watched it…

It’s so popular! The tickets were almost sold out! At this moment, a staff said it’s not allowed to take photos here.

Who cares! We just took our pictures. Ya! We were excited about watching it!

This show is very humorous and also touched. The main roles’ performances were really great! I like the role Kristin, seeing that she is outgoing and shows typical American girly behaviors! I want to play this role.
