Weekend

This past weekend was busy. Friday after work I went with my fellow interns to a cute little place called Alice's Tea Cup on 73rd and Columbus. It was this cute little place that had the best scones ever and tons of different teas. I passed on the chocolate chip mint cupcake but I'm sure I will be back there to try it. I also had Magnolia Bakery cupcakes the day before - YUM!
After the tea house, my friend Josephine and I went to Chelsea to see the new Batman movie - loved it. Christian Bale is totally hot and Heath Ledger did an awesome job as the Joker. Thumbs up for the new Batman movie!

Saturday morning I worked on homework for awhile and in the afternoon I went to the Morgan Library to check out the enormous book collection. The Morgan library contains an extensive book, print, and music collection of Pierpont Morgan, Father of JP Morgan. It was very impressive but they were all shelved and you can't actually handle them at all. There were hundreds of bibles and prayer books as well as numerous copies of Shakespeare collections and other famous novels and rare publications. There was an art exhibit of drawings and inks of artist Philip Guston but I wasn't especially impressed with it.

Afterwards I went to the New York Public Library and wandered around there. It was a beautiful building on the outside and on the inside. There was a photography exhibit there that had lots of photos from around NYC.
