Subway

I had my first subway experience a few weeks ago....

I have never ridden the subway and seldom visit NYC. My mission, go from Penn Station to the Bronx (Lehman College) The Challenging part was I was doing it entirely on my own.

I made my LIRR train, and made it to Penn Station. Luckily I stumbled upon the A subway. After looking at the map 5 million times, and elderly man saw I was lost and directed me to the right side of the track. The subway is scary, especially not knowing any streets or where you are underground. I'm proud of myself that I made two transitions and made it on time to my destination. There were many creepy people, one guy followed me off the train and whispered "you're beautiful" going up the platform.... then I started power walking

The way back was not as smooth.... I got very lost, scared and disoriented. But, I did make it back and am happy I learned the hard way to figure it out.
