Fresh Starts

Same blog, new me.

Wait not new. Probably a different me.

Scratch that.

Note to self: you may lose your blogging mojo if you don't write for 2 years.

Bad starts aside, I can't believe the last time I wrote something here was 2 years ago.
For someone who thought that writing was her passion, 2 years is insane!

Long story short, I lost myself for a moment and now I'm back. Or I want to be back.

I guess it took me some time to realise that I had absorbed myself into the corporate world and ended up with no real hobbies (unless you count sleeping as a hobby). The sheer realisation of how boring my life had become kind of sprung me back into action.

So now, I'm taking charge. I'm on a mission to rediscover my passions.

I'm creating a fresh start.

Starting now.

USA 2014: NYC All Over

Pictures: Assorted from the new World Trade Center, 9/11 Memorial, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Empire State at night and wherever else we passed

The title of this post came about simply because I couldn't find a way to name all these pictures in a super cool title.

But at this point in time, I am entirely embarrassed at how I am still posting pictures of NYC in Spring when Fall has already arrived. Gosh, I'm late by 2 seasons... Oh well, better late than never right?

The good thing is, I'm now in a mad rush to resize and select all my pictures so I can post them right after I finish writing a pretty (or not so pretty) paragraph about how embarrassing it is to be posting pictures this late and how much I love NYC.

I wish I could be in NYC all the time... LOL.

USA 2014: You Have the Liberty to Visit Liberty Island

This has got to be one of my favourite albums out of all my NYC photos. Why? Because the view is amazing and Lady Liberty is naturally photogenic and looks amazing at practically all angles. It is entirely IMPOSSIBLE to shortlist pictures because they are all that amazing.

Also, the weather and sky that day was gorgeous. Clear, blue skies with clouds to add some dramatic flair to the photos. It's as if the clouds beckoned me to take these pictures so that I can share a little bit of NYC's beauty with everyone.

My proudest moment? When I captured the NYC skyline along with the US Flag from Ellis Island while on the ferry. You can't even tell a window was between me and this spectacular view!

While I'd definitely encourage the photo buffs to take a step onto Liberty Island, I must warn you of the terribly long queue that awaits you when you decide to leave the Island. Why? Because the queue is ridiculously long.

I guess I'll leave it to you to decide if that magnificent view or the time spent waiting for the ferry is more important...


All pictures have been scaled down (and some look terribly pixelated). If you would like them in their original sizes, do drop me a message/email.
