shit dude dont we all?

Gun Hill Rd amuses me. I don't know why it's called that but everytime I look at the MTA map, I LOL. I used to travel all the way up to 225th on the 2 everyday and then back to Brooklyn College. Things I do for love.

What is it like studying or working in NYC/ NJ?

Thanks.

I cant speak much about it since im 16 lol
For NYC
Manhatten is hella expensive for real estate
Basically I would say that if you are making less then 70,000 dollars yearly most of the island is innacessibe, however Harlem is getting better and the prices there are still less then most of the city.

The South Bronx still has a fair amount of issues with poverty/crime so not the best area to live in, so living higher up in the Bronx makes the commute to where you would work(most likely Manhattan) a bitch.

Brooklyn/Queens are probably your best bet.

Anyway its a great city and if you get a job offer move!

To bad NJ is across the river though

*poof*

That was what alot of the South Bronx looked like in the 1980's and in a good portion of the 1990's, has improved a bit, less empty lots but still....

*poof*

If you come up to NYC, you should look into Cooper Union. It's a school in the middle of the East Village where all the fun stuff happens. They have art, architecture, engineering and social sciences. I don't know about all the programs but I know that they take all art students in for free. You just have to do some assignments for them to prove you're worthy.

Yea Cooper Union is great and that part of town is very very interesting.

The Bowery which is what it is located on used to be famous for the "Bowery Bums" who lived there, now it has luxury condos

There is great food in that area and lots of train stations
+ Lots of culture in general is found in the East/West villages

Let's see some food and buildings

Most museums I've been to in NYC ask for a suggested donation of a particular price but if you can't afford it, then you can always give less. The price helps them stay open. I know for a fact that the MoMA charges a fee, but if you have a student I.D. card, they give a discount.

I'm more a fan of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (Met). Has more of the old stuff.

How was your bday eli?

Was ok. I'm still sick and it's a bad time right now with other stuff, so I'm not in a big celebration mood. But went for sushi and had my birthday cake, so I'm good.

South Jersey!!! GO HOME BENNI!!
