Love/hate with NYC

I'm very thankful for the chance to live in NYC right now, when I'm young. It's quite an adventure. That being said, I have a love/hate relationship with the city.

I hate... :

  • how long it can take to go less than 5 miles
  • how small living spaces are (unless you are rich)
  • how expensive everything is
  • how hard it is to hang out with people, you usually have to make plans
  • how crowded it feels sometimes
  • how hard it can be to transport large things
  • how you have to carry everything on your back vs. throwing it in your trunk
  • how lonely the city can feel


  • I love... :

  • how you can get almost anything you want to eat at any time of day or night
  • how diverse the population is
  • how you can do almost anything you want any night you want
  • the culture that is present in the city via museums, etc.
  • convenient public transportation
  • how you can have an ice cream cone delivered to your apartment if you wanted to
  • how open minded most people are

    I can't wait until I find a place that I love flat out.
