NYC: WFE waiting for Red Carpet

Mark Povinelli who plays Kinko/Walter 

 Saturday turned into a rather interesting night. What was supposed to be H20 for Elephants Cocktails, dinner with Twitter ladies, & scoping out Ziegfeld Theater turned into getting one quick autograph & racing to get dressed & running as fast as I could in the rain to get in line at the Theater.

I lined up a little before 7P.M - Wristbands (which only 200 were handed out) weren't given until 9A.M the next day. So it was a LONG night in the rainy, windy, cold weather.

LC read WFE while in line

Tracy chillin in the rain... ALL FOR ROB ;-)

Thinking this was a CRAZY idea

This was taken at the beginning of the night before we were SOAKED & TIRED

Sara Gruen, author of Water for Elephants came out in the pouring rain to greet fans. She was impressed with the dedication that each of us had. She went around and signed autographs. I got my WFE book signed. Sara was a trooper, the next day her voice was almost gone because she spent a lot of the night out in the rain with us! HOW SWEET! 

Sara Gruen Autograph!!!

Totally Fan-girling!! LOL

14 HOURS LATER .... 

                                                               We got our VIP wristbands!!!

After we recieved our wristbands, they told us that we could go do whatever (I went back to the hotel room & slept for about an hour) but we HAD to be back outside by 3:00PM

TEAM ROSIE!

 On Saturday morning I met a few ladies in the hotel lobby where we talked & took pictures. We decided on our "game plan" for the day which included taking the subway to SoHo to shop and find DASH Boutique & Central Park.

      Taking the subway to SoHo!!!

                                   .... This picture is the PERFECT explaination for our day! LOL.
                                                          We got so lost on the subway.

 We Found DASH!!! Store was WAY too expensive for me, but I found some awesome sequined legging haha.

 CENTRAL PARK- it wasn't the most beautiful day. Rainy, chilly weather but that didn't stop us from seeing The Alice & Wonderland statue which is also featured in Remember Me.

Tracy & I


After Central Park we made our way back to the hotel. Tracy stayed to rest up while I went to find a Barnes and Nobel with Laury & Britney. I bought Reese's VOGUE magazine. It was raining, so we did some walking around and sight seeing, but not much. Afterwards we went back to the hotel to freshen up before the Water For Elephants Cocktail party... 

New York City Trip-- DAY 1

 ALMOST TO NYC!!!!
I flew in from Indianapolis, switched flights in Detroit and then landed at LGA early afternoon on Friday.

 I met Laury & Britney at the Hilton where we were staying. We walked around Times Square & scoped out the Ziegfeld Theater which was right around the corner from our hotel.

 The view of the Ziegfeld Theater (where the Water for Elephants Premiere took place) from our room!!

 We went back to the hotel where I met Tracy, my Twilight Sister ;-) !!!!  We roomed together this past weekend along with her friend Laura who also stayed with us. For dinner we ate at Planet Hollywood so that we could see ROB HANDS!! and the Twilight Prom dress and Tuxedo.

 After more sight seeing, we took a Taxi to SoHo where I met about 18 other girls from Twitter (who are all Twi and/or Robert Pattinson fans) for dinner at Lombardi's

PIZZA TIME!!
