city don't sleep

via

i am beyond excited to head to this marvelous city saturday. 

though my dream is to be on the west coast, going somewhere new is thrilling. i used to tell myself (and others) that i never wanted to go east, thinking it was a place for the pretentious and unimpressed by the common portrayal of "mean" people that fills its streets. but i'm ready. beyond ready to be in a place where people don't bother to question your heritage because it's filled with so many different people already. [i don't know how many times i've been asked where i'm from. or what nationality i am.] a place where you can see different fashions, faces, foods, everywhere you look. a place where there is always something to do and somewhere to go. i'm ready. just 5 days now and that's where i'll be.

any new yorkers want to give me some advice? what are some things that i can't/shouldn't pass up while i'm there? :)
