35 YEARS TO SEE NEW YORK -562020


Welcome to new york city, it took me 35 years. I always wanted to visit or live here for a couple of months. I'm finally here after visiting almost all of the major cities in the United States. Which wasn't a goal of mine but I'm thankful to have had the opportunity to visit and live all over the country. I've never been outside of the country even though I had a passport and had the opportunity to go to Puerto Rico once, I never had the desire to visit anywhere until I at least saw New York City. I can say that seeing New York City was probably my one and only travel goal. Well I finally made it. About a month after I got here, the whole city shut down and I no longer see the New York City that people have been ranting and raving about for years. I never in my wildest dreams would have thought that the strong people of New York would fold like pussies because the news and the government said so. I thought New Yorkers were free thinking people. I've never seen people so scared and in compliance with what the government told them. It's weird to think that the American dream is truly dead because people are scared to leave their houses or willingly quaranting themselves as if healthy people need to be quarantined. I can see how this was a great and inspirational city but now, it's pretty pathetic. Im speaking as an outsider so people can dismiss everything I'm saying, and the way New Yorkers are, they will, and most likely yell their point across in their obnoxious tone. Or is that just their accent. None the less I like this city, I like the diversity, the mixtures of cultures. The tall buildings, the international feel of the whole city. I can say with confidence that new york city is the greatest city in the United States, so I'm very thankful to be here and very excited for the governor or mayor to open back up the city, ive barely tipped the ice berg of what new york City has to offer and I'm very anxious to get my NYC experience on.
