What a busy week it's been.

I'm starting to understand what people meant by calling New York "the City that never sleeps."  I've found it difficult to get on a specific "habit" for sleeping and waking up and all that jazz while living here.  In all actuality though - it's great.  There’s something going on every night here – something for everyone.  I could walk to the bus at 1 in the morning on a Monday night and there would still be hoards of people I have to avoid running into at any given time.  Sometimes you get the feeling like you are just part of this hilarious joke, where someone is contently watching the “rat race” from above. But the “rat race” has its perks, for sure – I find it amazing to see so many different nationalities, hear so many languages, and see so many bagel stands each morning on my commute to work. (How can there be 5 bagel stands in a 3 block area, yet all 5 are packed?)
