    • 5 Pages

    professional photographer, living in New York City with a boyfriend and at least one cat. I had those dreams because life was not easy for me at that age. It had been two years since I first began to suffer from depression. Transitioning from elementary school to junior high school was a challenge for me. I had never been to a new school, and I was going to a new territory without my best friend, LeToya or my secret crush at the time, DeVonte. My goal was to make some new friends. At the…

The temperature is a perfect balance between warm and cold. The leaves that had fallen from the trees are bright and full of life.

Ever since the accident occurred, I’ve been…

You ask your mom for a nickel or dime to spare for the homeless woman and she replies with a ‘no’ and starts to walk faster. Unfortunately, this dilemma is portrayed…

    reasons of opening a New York style deli in Pennsylvania is based entirely on increasing demographics. “We heard that a lot of people moved here from New York, New Jersey, and Staten Island, and within five years about 50,000 families moved into the area. This type of deli is what you would find in New York City or Long Island.” This is uncommon for the Lehigh Valley, where Emmaus is located, but that does not mean that the town has a diverse business scene like New York…

    • 1935 Words
    • 8 Pages

    A life in New York City is a vastly personal experience that is famous for being unlike a life in any other metropolis. “City Limits” by Colson Whitehead explores the idea that everyone who goes to and lives in New York has their own, unique version of the city. From the moment an individual steps foot in the city, she is “building [her] private New York,” (Whitehead 1). My personal New York —the food stands, pharmacies, and avenues I would come to call home—formed when I moved to Manhattan to…

    feet to add the pretext of movement, to the hustle and bustle of trying to move along in a group in a strange new place (assuming I was amongst mostly tourists), nothing ever changes when it comes to human behaviour regardless of the geographical location. That is my very first observation during my very first vacation to somewhere I did not grow up in. It’s overwhelming how everything is so new yet so familiar.

    New York Bright lights, breathtaking views, and thrilling nights are what I want to see in New York. The “Big Apple” has always been intriguing to me. Historical monuments, outrageously priced clothes, the city of lights is where I want to go. New York has many fascinating qualities, but in my eyes the nightlife, broadway shows, and the Staten Island Ferry are most interesting. New York is known as “The city that never sleeps.” Times Square is where the action happens. Known as “The center…
