Recently, more and more I am woken with the fact that my
time in New York is dwindling by the day--I have a little more than a
month left here. That being said, it really is strange how fast time goes by
when you aren’t taking the time to notice it. I assume this happens a lot when
living in such a quickly moving city. This leads me to quoting Ferris Bueller,
“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you
could miss it.”
A
few weekends ago, some friends and I had what felt like a perfect NYC Saturday.
The morning began with classic New York Bagels followed by a plan to go to a
museum. New York is filled with various museum options but this particular day
we decided to go to The American Museum of Natural History. They currently have a
butterfly exhibit happening so this was our deciding factor. Its an extra
charge to view this exhibit, however, rest assured it is worth while. The
butterfly room is around 85 degrees, so leave your coats at the door. You can
stay inside as long as you’d like and if you wait long enough they might land
on you. Luckily for my bright blue sweater and I, this happened to me. The
butterfly stuck around and found my arm to be a perfect mate…… So needless to
say my Saturday morning was eventful.
It
had snowed a lot the day before, so the city was still covered in the innocence
of the snow. Following our museum trip, we walked around Central Park. The
scene was exactly as you’d imagine New York on a snowy Saturday. People playing
catch, kids sledding, couples taking walks through the park, and a group of 4
college girls taking pictures while taking it all in. This has been one of my
favorite Saturdays in the city thus far.
We ended the night by going out with a few friends and
casually hanging out at a friend's apartment who had fish swimming in their
floors.
Someone please tell me again, why would I ever leave New
York? xx
