Times Square -- couldn't see any square, all you could see was a mass of trash swirling in the wind. Also: who needs that much city? It takes days to get from one end to the other. What's the point? How many restaurants, clubs, spaces etc., can you realistically get around to visiting in one lifetime? To me, to live someplace gargantuan just because one likes the idea of its gargantuousness is pointless. But oh, okay, it's kind of cool to look down on this great huge city and say: "Wow ... and I'm a part of it." But the bigger the city, the smaller and more insignificant it makes you ... just a microscopic speck, an amoeba. But then .... I guess that's what folks in Indianapolis, or Peoria, say about Chicago ... Anyway, good that you are happy there . New York, the City That Never Sweeps! At least, they were when i was there.

The city is the love of my live - I dream about it night and day and can't wait when I can come back! Oh, I do wish that someday soon I, too, would be able to say “I live in New York” and smile.

You found the toughest borough, the Bronx, to living in. Even the Russians in NY city know that Brooklyn is a comfortable place for them. Maybe one day you venture all the boroughs and find a place with less problems. I was born in Brooklyn which these days is not bad and close to the $$ side of Manhattan. Also lived in Queens and eventually way out on Long Island. The Bronx is a very tough and dangerous place to live. They had to rebuild Yankee stadium because of a few reasons. One big one was people were to scared to going there for many people walk right into violence. Be careful Lena. Its nice your laughing at the negative side. But just remember NYC has some places that are heaps better then the Bronx... Good luck. and you better pack a gun soon. Or stock up on the pepper spray.
