What I've Realized

     -Times Square/Midtown is the tourist epicenter of the universe.

     - The song Kid A by Radiohead has lyrics...How have I heard this album so many times and never noticed that before?

     -When one of your suitemates gets sick and you can hear him coughing through the walls it almost makes you feel all right about him eating the food you bought for yourself without asking you first. 

     -That I said the word "you" a lot that last bullet point.

     -Manhattan isn't as picture-perfect as it is in blockbuster movies, far from it. In fact, its grime and vomit sprinkled streets may surprise you at first! Get over it. Do you see how many people live here? The beauty comes with the community. With the boroughs that somehow span every demographic and social status possible. Art is amazing here. Start taking photos, start reading, start going to films and independent concerts. It'll take your breath away.
