Preparing trip to NYC

Today is Saturday, but not a common Saturday. Today is holiday in Brazil by two reasons. Today is celebrated The Tiradentes' day and The Birthday of Brasilia, Brazil's capital, and the city where I have been living for seven years. For this reason I don't have English class today and I didn't need to wake up early. Indeed I couldn't sleep very well tonight I don't why, maybe I do....

Yesterday I bought my ticket to travel to New York on October and I spent a lot of money this let me worriea. But this history began when I decided studying abroad. I choose NYC to stay a month studying English on my vacation. I chose this city because I think is amazing city and I saw many movies and TV series that were made there and my friend Shenia went there to study last year too.
Yes, I know, NYC is one of the most expensive city of the world. :/ But nowhere is enough to me.

On January, I bought the school package including the classes and the accommodation. I choose stay in family home at Manhattan. I think that is a good way to learn the native language quickly.

Shenia give me two the idea to write a daily trip, but I decided to write before the travel. Write about my feelings to prepare the travel... and now here I am :P

Until now I only spent money... this worries me, but as my boyfriend said, we work and save money to achieve our dreams. This travel is my dream. If I had more time and more money I would spend more time there, maybe 6 month or 1 year.

Talking about him, my boyfriend, Alexandre - Alex to exchange friends - will go with me. This make me happier and feel safer. He will be there during the firsts ten days. In this period we will stay hosted in a hotel at Manhattan too. When he comes back to Brazil I will go to the family home.

I'm happy with only one month and I 'll do anything to this travel worth each cent that I'm spending now. :)

Now I have to get my student visa and after I am going to look for things to do in NYC and get tips with my friends that had been there.

In the next post I'm going talk about this.


bye!!!

PS:. I 'm writing in English to practice and learn more. Probably I will make many mistakes, but whom reads this posts can give tips and corect my errors. Thank you.
