There are many different things to do in New York City, but summer is almost over. You're probably tried of going into the city and doing the same touristy things in the same areas. I mean how many times can you go to Times Square. Here are five interesting unique things to do before the summer is over in New York City. That will take you all over the city.

1. Downtown Food, Desert, and Wine Tour

Enjoy a walk through Soho and into Little Italy while enjoying the best food and wine that NYC has to offer. You'll be lead by a licensed tour guide as you sample artisan chocolate truffles and European cheeses. You'll also get you're choice of a local craft brew or glass of wine. Not only will you get to sample these fine foods, you'll also learn how they are made. This tour is available through City Food Tours, to learn more visit their website!

2. Visit the High Line

Located in the heart of the Meatpacking District, the High Line is a lovely elevated park made out of the no longer used West Side Line train tracks. Enjoy a mile and a half walk of beautiful greenery, almost making it like you're not in the hustle and bustle of NYC.

3. Ninja Restaurant

This fun japanese restaurant is designed to look like a feudal ninja village. The entire restaurant is setup like a maze with individual rooms for each table. Entrees included teriyaki salmon and mango salmon rolls. The restaurant also has a vegetarian menu and many different types of sake.

4. Mmuseumm

The Mmuseumm is probably the most interesting museum in New York, but it is also the smallest. The entire museum is located in a freight elevator in Tribeca, the museum is so small that it only allows three people in at a time. One of the wackiest artifacts at the tiny museum was the shoe that was thrown at President Bush during a press conference.

5.Visit Rough Trade

Sadly most record shops have been closed in NYC, but thankfully one of the originals Rough Trade still remains. Inside Rough Trade there are records, books, and art installations. The store is even capable of being a venue of up to 250 people. So come dig through some records.

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.

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.

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.
