Top 8 Reasons I love NYC

After the last post, I feel like I have a responsibility to create this one :)
  • There are five distinctive boroughs, all with a rich history. From the Harlem Renaissance days to the Irish-Italian boom, you find people of every color, shape, size and most importantly, culture.
  • So many movies are shot on any given day. It's great to turn on the television and see the restaurant you ate at last week or the airport that aggravates you on a daily basis.
  • I love snow and Christmas trees(...and New York has the "biggest" of them all).
  • You can find every type of school (as you can see on http://www.bravotv.com/nyc-prep) There are schools about God, success and life and schools about cliques, money and social respect. The best part, every school is all of those things, whether it's a prep or private or charter or public or church school....or even home school.
  • There's a church and a restaurant everywhere. You have no reason to be hungry ever and no reason to be lacking spiritually.
  • Fashion! I'd wear things and style my hair ways I'd never be able to do elsewhere. Don't get me wrong...inspiration still ensues when I'm not in New York..this isn't the only place for style. I'm just most risky with my style here. New York accepts the "bohemian" as well as the "grunge," after all.
  • You can have a mundane routine sitting inside and going to work and waving to your neighbors and you can go to parties and to the theaters and walk new streets every day.
  • It's where I live. Everybody knows "home is where the heart is." New York is where I walked my first steps and lost my baby teeth, where I have slept for over 7,000 nights and where I graduated high school. New York is where most of my family and friends are, where I am familiar with getting around and most importantly, where my computer is. I love my blogs.
