I love New York City. To me New York City symbolizes hope, dreams and opportunity for anyone. New York City is more than home to be, it is my happy place. Sure there are flaws, I cannot find one thing I dislike about the city. Coincidentally I seem to love all of the things that people don't like. So here is why I love New York City:

1. The smell of pollution

You might as well embrace it!

2. The rude people

Yeah, I don't have an explanation for all of the attitude and sassiness, but just be aware because its common in the City.

3. The congestion

This is what every street corner looks like, so I hope you're not claustrophobic.

4. The hustle and bustle

Work. Eat. Sleep. Repeat.

5. The endless amount of stores

Don't go to 5th Avenue it's a trap.

6. The endless amount of restaurants of course (huge foodie)

Too many options,not enough stomach space.

7. The "wonderful" public transportation

I can't even lie theres nothing nice about the subway, but get used to it because cabs are too expensive.

8. The mysterious Empire State Building colors

The highlight of my week...trying to figure out why/which colors will light the top of the Empire State Building that night.

9. The sports teams

Games are never dull.

10. The endless amount of opportunities

The city has endless opportunities out there for everyone!
