Yesterday, the National Honors Society went on a cruise to Chelsea Piers as celebration of the graduating seniors in that program. we had a lot of fun. The weather was nice and everything except the fact that it was really windy. Atleast it didn't rain like the day before!

I woke up at 7 A.M. in the morning, called someone to make sure they're up on time to meet at 36 street as we promised byu 9:00 A.M. Me, Amy and Ding Ding went to the 8 ave station to meet up and then we took the N train all the way to 36th street where we waited for the others to show up. Teresa was there before us =X and the three of us were next. Then Eric showed up and finally JJ, Qua Qua, Tiffany  respectively. We stayed in the station past 9 a bit because we waited for Mary too. JoJo, who thought 36th street was in manhatten took the train all the way to manhatten and realized there was NO 36th street and got off at 23rd street manhatten  and just walked to the piers himself. =.="

Mary came around 9:15 if not a little late XD Then we took the D train all the way to 23rd street in Manhatten and transferred to the C train (I think) all the way to 8th ave and 23rd street in manhatten. We walked 3 avenues to Chelsea Piers where we also happen to meet other friends. We went to Chelsea Piers and took some pictures of the ship we were going to board and my friends. I took quite a lot of pictures because this is our last year and I'll probably never see a lot of people after we graduate. Here are some pictures below:

The Ship we boarded called the "Spirit of New York"

The boys that we met up with at 36th street: Qasim, Eric, Joseph, Dan, JJ


All of us including Tiffany, Mary, Teresa, me, Amy


This is the whole full group picture of the NHS seniors who came...
after we took this picture, another half of this group came.. so it was a lot of people!

The interior of the ship. We were on the first level. The left side is all of our school.

These were the kinds of food we ate. They were pretty good. The alfredo sauce was really nice with the pasta!


Here's me standing by the stairs that leads to the second floor of the ship where there are more dining tables and kids from other schools.

This is the dance floor by the stairs. Most of the people who danced were little kids... tsk.. and the moves they were doing are already so naughtyish...imagine later on >.>

These are the teachers that went with us on the trip.

Overall, the trip was exciting and fun. It was my first time out at sea and I got a good look at the city I never really explored and noticed a lot of things I've never knew even though I've lived in this city for 18 years of my life. Although the trip was a little scary at first with the ship wobbling back and forth and the strong wind beating around, making you feel like you just might fall down somewhere, it was nice to be with everyone. I probably won't ever forget this time. Ahh... I'll definitly remember when I look back at all these pictures!
