NYC Adventures with Whitney!

Earlier this month, one of my best friends came to visit! Of course we did all things New York City while she was here. I'll hit the highlights.

Friday
- It was the first time for either of us to visit the MoMA! We saw Van Gogh's Starry Night and exhibitions concerning the 1960s, along with a ton of other art.
- We went to the NBC Store in the Rockefeller Center, then had dinner at Shake Shack. I had their brownie batter hot chocoloate. Man oh man was it good.
- Claire Chase gave her Density iv concert. This. This was everything. There was a talk before the show about the overarching narrative of the concert and some of the planninging that went into it. At one point during the concert, she wore a leather jumpsuit. I repeat: Leather. Jumpsuit. Needless to say, she's super badass and I want to be her friend. My favorite piece was Gama XV: Piece for Two Speaker Dresses, performed with Pauchi Sasaki, where Claire and Pauchi both wore dresses/skirts MADE OF SPEAKERS. It was the coolest thing.

Saturday
- Sarah spent the day with us too! We started with lunch in Little Italy. We had pizza, of course. We also meandered through Chinatown.
- We walked through Central Park, specifically hitting up Strawvberry Fields.
- Went to the Top of the Rock. It was cold and crazy windy, but there were great views.
- Saw the Rockefeller Christmas tree!
- Witnessed hell in the form of so many people surrounding you that you can't move... #nyc

Sunday
- Walked around the Broadway theaters and shops
- Went to Fishs Eddy - wonderful place!
- Stopped by the Momofuku Milk Bar
