How can you not fall in love?

In the Spirited City of Dreams, there are people all around you. Wherever you walk, there are big signs and attractions, entertainment & activities for all ages. How could you not fall in love with the grand city that is New York City? In addition to the popularity it name carries; this exquisite city has the life and potential to become an even more loved city as the years continue. No matter what season it is, and no matter who you come with; whether alone or with family & friends there is never a lack of things to do in NYC. New York is considered home for me. I have so much history & knowledge about the city you might even call me a New York junkie. I can show you how to get from one corner to the next street, and even tell you which times the subway leaves. From Chinatown all the way across to Mt. Vernon/Portchester I know just how to get places. I live in Virginia right now and being away from my first home has gotten a little depressing. I haven't seen some of my closest friends in years and it kills me on the inside because getting to see them again would make things for me so much better. Hopefully, after I graduate from Norfolk State University in 2019 I will be financially stable enough to move back up and be reunited with my friends and my city.

Everyone has their own opinion when it comes to the best times to be in New York City. Some people like spring & summer in New York, others prefer fall & winter. Personally, the absolute best time to be in New York is the end of summer. That's early fall, going into winter. I call that time a pre-transition. It is the best time because the season is changing & for me I can dress the best. Fall/winter apparel is my definite "know-how". From extra Starbucks coffee runs in the mornings, cute leg-warmers from Forever 21, those to-die-for knit sweaters from Urban Outfitters to the positive spirit & attitude the season puts people in. It becomes more positive because everyone knows that Christmas is right around the corner, so how can you not be even more blessed & cheerful? I also have love for New York City in the summertime as well.

During the summertime I always can go to Central Park to kick back and relax. Whenever I'm there I can get so much accomplished, painting, vibing and hanging out with friends to reading a favorite book of mine, there's nothing you can do wrong. Depending on how you think about New York and how you take it all in it can make a huge impact on some of the things you might decide to do while in New York. No matter how long you've lived in New York or even if you're a tourist, there will always be something for you to do.

New York's energy is something no other city has or can compare to and that is what makes it so grand. In the city known for positive vibes and dreams coming true, how could you not love New York City?

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.
