The Met...
AKA...why I actually do like New York.
I know I have been fairly negative about New York. So here is a post about how cool it is. I went to the Met (that's the Metropolitan Museum of Art) yesterday for the first time. It was actually my first trip to a museum in New York. I was in heaven. I love art and there is something for every taste there, and certainly lots for me to enjoy. I wandered around for about three hours and I felt like I had passed ten times more than I could take in. And I missed a ton of stuff. I could probably spend a week straight there and not get bored.
The works there are so amazing - everything from incredibly historic pieces thousands of years old to modern art that I don't get at all. Egypt, Mexico, France, Africa. It's all there to be seen. If I could have changed one thing about the museum, I would have just made it a little less crowded. But the truth is I was so excited to see so many people there enjoying art that I didn't even care that much. And some of the less famous exhibits were quiet and calm.
It was a wonderful afternoon of art. Can't wait to go back.

Its a great place to go ALONE or with other girls. But it is thee worst thing to do on a date.. Especially if its a real uncultured Yeshivishe jerk. Then it is sheer torture..
Yet another reason why NY is a nice place to visit - not live. :)
Semgirl - I actually love going to museums on dates, have had some of my best dates there. Because I love art, and there is something to talk about if you can't find anything else. I guess you just have to pick mature guys, thank G-d, I've never had a problem.
Ezzie - You can say that again.
So glad you are taking advantage of the positives of NY!
