A Different New York City Bandwagon: A New, New York City Bucket List

Experiencing New York for the first time can be exciting and hopeful; the city seems familiar, but still different as you're truly experiencing it for the first time. The hidden interactions and experiences are the ones that we seem to remember and appreciate the most. Take a day exploring the quiet marvels throughout the city and relish the interaction, rather than the contrived.

From the NYC classics to the gorgeous Brownstones, the city offers some of the most astounding architectural marvels that are sure to take your breath away. Though these buildings are so special, take a step from the historical and dive into the smaller, every day beauty surrounding.

2. New York City Public Library

While walking through the city, spend a few minutes sitting on the steps of the New York City Public Library. People sing and dance, speak out about important controversies, and bustle about their busy days. The library serves as a common ground among the people in the city and allows you to experience so many different life forms at once.

3. Eat 99 Cent Pizza

Everyone hears all about the famous NYC pizza, but we look in the wrong places. The best pizza is stumbled upon while walking the streets and sold for 99 cents. Take a second to indulge in all the grease and cheese from the small vendors, not a fancy pizzeria found on Google.

4. Look Out For Flash Mobs

Amazingly, flash mobs aren't only in movies. These outbreaks range from small groups to a huge crowd, but provide the same entertainment and joy every time. It's a moment of understood and familiar cooperation among people who are creating something special.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
