5 Things to Do in New York City During the Christmas Season.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my favorite holidays (I'm a bad Jew). NYC really grabs the spirit of Christmas and I compiled a list of things to do with your significant other, friends, and family. December is the only time or best time to do these things. I absolutely will be doing most of these things and you should too. Here is a list of activities to do in NYC during Christmas time.

1. Rockefeller Tree

Take a nice picture with the Rockefeller Christmas tree that gets lit up every night with more than fifty thousand lights.

2. Ice Skating

It's romantic and magical to ice-skate during this time. Manhattan has two great locations to do that. You can do that in Rockefeller Center right under the christmas tree, or you can ice-skate in Central Park. Lines are usually long but worth the wait.

3. Radio City Rockettes

This show has been shown since 1933. It's a large group of talented woman dancing in sync to holiday music in festive outfits. They are famous for the parade of the wooden soldiers.

4. Fifth Avenue Shopping

Huge well known department stores decorate their windows in the most unique festive way every year. Macys, Lord and Taylor, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdales, and Barneys are known for their Christmas windows! Plus holiday sale shopping never hurt.

5. Rolfs German Restaurant

Have dinner at a a very popular hot spot restaurant that has the most beautiful interior christmas decorating. They have a bar and German food. Good ratings and festive ambiance.

Happy Holidays!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
