The Great New York VS Los Angeles Debate

New York will always be better than Los Angeles

The Great New York VS Los Angeles Debate
Jake Rajs

I recently saw a friendly feud floating around on the web about which place was better; New York or Los Angelos. I had to laugh to myself when the people from Los Angelos used the weather as their main argument. I'll give it to them, the weather in New York is terrible but thats really about the only thing that is, and I'll prove it.

Let's start in the city, the NYC, the Big Apple, the City That Never Sleeps. We have; some of the most astounding architecture (I'm looking at you building that is a giant curve),

Times Square

Rockefeller Center

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Empire State Building

In case you were wondering, yes, these places do really look like this in real life.

On top of our iconic buildings, we also have some of the best regarded schools in the country.

Hello Juilliard.

What's up Columbia University?

The list for just the city is endless and in my honest opinion, not even the best part.

(Although I would kill for a rainbow bagel right now.)

See, the thing is, is that most people even forget there is more to New York than just the city. It's totally understandable, not like it's the BIGGEST STATE ON THE NORTHEAST COAST or anything.

You get views like this,

and so much history. Almost every where in New York, you'll see signs like these;

So, Los Angelos, you may have HollyWood, but, and no offense, you will never be better than New York.

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.
