Thursday morning our three marketing classes began our journey to New York City. We had an early start at 6 am, sitting on the bus for around 9 hours, finally stepping foot in the city around 1. On the first day we walked around Time Square, visited Chinatown/Little Italy, and ate dinner in Little Italy. On the second day, our classes broke off into 3 groups of 17 and visited a marketing firm. The three were - Rime, JWT, and B-Reel. I was in the group that went to B-Reel. This place showed all the different aspects of production for large companies. After going to the marketing firms, our group was given time to eat lunch and walk around for a little bit. We finally all met up at Rockefeller center. We were able to go up to the top of it, Top of The Rock. We also went and watched Spider-Man on Broadway. On the third day we visited Carlo's Bakery, then went to group zero and walked around the the memorial there. Then we went to dinner. After that, we were given the chance to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. And on our final day, we were taken on a carriage ride around Central Park, then given a little while to walk around Fifth Avenue.
When the time came we finally had to leave. It was filled with mixed emotions. I personally was glad to come home to see my family and boyfriend, but I was sad to leave because I was having a good time away from my normal life. Now everything is back to normal, and I'm back to stressing about what seems to be literally everything. Soon, it will be time to graduate.
