What is there not to love?
My most favorite thing is the smiles from cute strangers on the commute home. And the way you try to get on the same subway car tomorrow so you can smile at eachother again!
I love the shopping. the bar hopping. the great mass transportation (most of the time). the saladbowl/melting pot of different cultures. street fairs. little italy closed off to non-local traffic on weekends. our great local sports teams. celebrities. the skyline. the skyline at night from a cab sitting next to your new special someone. our resiliancy. the big apple red tour bus. the rebuilding of downtown. mom&pop owned stores. food vendors. the outter boroughs. the feeling of being home when you hear "Welcome to NY's LaGuardia/JFK/Penn Station". the dogwalkers. the park. the music/museums/shows. the way the kids of this city deal with some terrible stuff at a young age and have great opportunities for success nonetheless. and i love knowing I've made it here for a year already!
and today....i loved my free iced coffee from D&D just because it's NYC.
