I crushed on this random server guy at the waffle place in Manhattan, but I just
left without asking his insta or anything. On the next day I visited the place
again with my mini skirt and full makeup on (it was around -8 celsius) but he
wasn’t there. It was kinda unforgettable experience cuz I had never been
aggressive like this before.(don’t reveal my name lmao u can use it anyway) Now
I feel embarrassed for some reason every time I pass by this place ❤️🩹



Meeting friend for the first time after years of friendship online and went to
restaurants and bars late night.

high traffic in Manhattan all the time, but some great places to rest

Hover over the squares to glimpse moments in NYC.

Subway station smell (stinky smell) - still really impressive :)

Going to times square for the first time with friends and feeling accomplished
to fulfill one of my bucket list

I still remember eating my first New York bagel, so fluffy and better than the
ones back home. Ess a bagel and Brooklyn bagel

There are many buildings lit up at night

One night, after I saw the Phantom of the Opera, I couldn't get a uber so I took
the subway, and in that train I met a guy who was trying to touch the passengers
by dancing, so I started to change seat to avoid him and switch between
different cabins, really scary but actually exciting

Rats

In the subway, the rat moved freely between the platform and the tracks, which
was scary and impressive because it seemed smarter than I thought.

bookhunting every christmas break. I basically start in union square and get a
snack and then go to rockefeller to all the book stores and look around and buy
myself some books as a christmas gift

I visited the Time square, Brooklyn, and the Center Park. They all left a good
impression on me and I made special memories from the New York City. My favorite
memory from the NYC is walking around the streets in Brooklyn and watching the
sunset at the Domino park.

I have a vivid memory of September 11th. At that time, I was working at
Pentagram, with our office located on 25th Street. I witnessed the collapse of
the first building from a distance. I remained stuck in the city until late in
the afternoon.

I don't have a specific moment to share, but I'd like to share my general
impression of new york. Walking through the streets of manhattan, sounds of taxi
horns, distant hum of subway trains created a symphony that is distinctly new
york. I don't think it's just the iconic landmakrs or the skyline that makes new
york what it is; it's the small moment in such a big cultural melting pot. nyc
seems to have a way of capturing hearts with its indescribable energy.

In subway station, there was a woman with a stroller and two strangers walking
down stairs with her just simultaneously grabbed the stroller on each side and
helped her without a word or a smile. They just went on with their lives once
they reached the bottom of stairs.

I went to a concert during my first year in NYC. I was still getting used to
everything here and felt lonely in the big city. The artist shared some of her
experiences with the city and how she loves it and hates it at the same time.
But after reflecting on her comments, I think I realized that I actually like
this city more than I thought. I was also enjoying these new experiences.

When I first went to Dumbo; It was literally the first time I saw a harmony of
city and nature. There was cityscape right behind the river. It was just
beautiful.

maybe it was the first time i visited nyc? i remember sitting in the car and
going back to my hotel the 2nd or 3rd night and just looking out the window made
me feel so comforted and nostalgic. i was recalling my events of that day, first
time visiting soho and brooklyn bridge and it felt surreal because i was coming
into terms with how this was going to be my new normal from now.

I was walking from the Lower East Side back to Pratt's Brooklyn Campus with my
first roommates. We walked across the Brooklyn Bridge at 11pm and at one point I
was walking ahead of them. They never told me they stopped and I ended up
walking across the whole bridge by myself which was terrifying.

First time I arrived to the city for college

The craziest people on the subway are my impression of NYC. They do whatever
they want to do, wear, say and no one judges them. Sometimes it's scary, but
sometimes it brings unexpected joy and fun. Also, it always reminds me that I
can also do whatever I want to do!

Visiting Botanic Garden, Central Park and Met Cloister

5th Ave &, E 54th St, New York, NY 10019




As my boyfriend and I were heading home from church, we stumbled upon a
trumpeter entertaining the crowd with dancing plush toys. The streets were
bustling with activity due to the parade, and amidst the chaos, we found
ourselves encountering various performers. Surprisingly, instead of feeling
annoyed by the commotion, we both found the day to be remarkably interesting.

Carnegie Hall




It was the day the Boston Symphony and pianist Seung-Jin Cho took the stage at
Carnegie Hall. This was my third concert at Carnegie Hall, but the first time I
went alone. I wasn't concerned about my seat; nestled beside a pillar in a
narrow space, it didn't bother me. After all, I was there to enjoy the
performance with my ears, not my seat.

Central Park




I decided to visit Central Park to catch a glimpse of the cherry blossoms since
the weather had warmed up. However, upon arrival, I was disappointed as I
couldn't tell if the blossoms had already fallen or were yet to bloom. Despite
this, I wandered through the park for about an hour and stumbled upon a lively
scene. There were people gathered, dancing, and playing musical instruments. The
owner of one instrument generously handed it over to young children, giving them
the chance to play together. Their dance wasn't particularly polished, but it
was delightful to watch them have fun, even if it meant looking a bit silly.

Brooklyn - Clinton Hill




As I headed towards my usual cafe where I often get my work done, I couldn't
help but notice the unusually pleasant November weather, reflected in the light
clothing worn by passersby. Upon reaching the main road I needed to cross to
reach the cafe, I encountered a large crowd. It turned out to be the day of a
major marathon in New York. Despite my efforts to navigate through the crowd
along the path I needed to take, it seemed impossible to pass through the
throngs of marathoners. Eventually, I gave up on reaching my intended cafe and
instead made my way to Starbucks, where I settled in and got my work done.

New York - Flatiron




I went to a concert during my first year in NYC. I was still getting used to
everything here and felt lonely in the big city. The artist shared some of her
experiences with the city and how she loves it and hates it at the same time.
But after reflecting on her comments, I think I realized that I actually like
this city more than I thought. I was also enjoying these new experiences.

New York - West Village




I visited my very first jazz bar with two of my friends. That day, a piano solo
was played. We each ordered a glass of wine and listened to the music. I got a
little tipsy at the end of the performance and left my jacket on top of a candle
that was on the table, and it got burnt and left a mark on it. I still recall
that day whenever I wear the jacket.

Washington Square Park




My friends and I headed to Washington Square Park to catch the Dog Day Halloween
Parade & Costume Contest. I couldn't contain my excitement seeing all those
adorable dogs decked out in costumes. After the parade, we hung around to listen
to the musicians playing in the park.

New York - Chelsea




My friend and I went to Chelsea and explored the various galleries hosting
exhibitions. Everything was going great until it started raining heavily. I had
a yellow umbrella, and my friend was wearing yellow rain boots, which we thought
was quite cute. We ended up in the MoMA cafe, where we ended up spending nearly
$20 just on a cup of tea and coffee.

Coney Island Beach




Spontaneously, my friend and I decided to head to Coney Island one Friday. We
grabbed sandwiches and hopped on the subway for an hour-long ride, despite the
lingering winter chill. I anticipated a quiet scene, but to my surprise, the
beach was bustling with people admiring the waves. We stayed until sunset.

The Brooklyn Mirage




I went to the Brooklyn Mirage for Halloween. The venue was packed with people,
and there were multiple stages set up. I found myself more focused on observing
the crowd rather than enjoying the music and the event itself.

MoMA




I visited MoMA to see 'Unsupervised' by artist Refik Anadol, which uses
artificial intelligence to interpret and transform art. The museum was packed
with visitors eager to see the artwork, and everyone was snapping photos and
videos of the exhibits. The artwork was captivating, and it got me thinking
about how different museums must have been before advanced technology,
considering both the artwork and the way people interacted with it relied solely
on traditional methods.

Brooklyn - Clinton Hill




The day before my flight, I went to a concert with my friends. After the show,
we decided to hit up a bar. Inside, people were dancing on stages, and we got
caught up in the excitement. Unfortunately, I got a bit too carried away and
ended up missing my flight after getting drunk.
