I recently accepted a job offer at a PR Fashion Agency called Exposure. It has been exciting and fun starting a new job. Starting new things always keeps life interesting, however, it can be difficult to readjust. My new job is in the Soho area of New York. It is so much further down town from my previous internship. I have had to make new friends and I have had to rediscover the area. I have also been rediscovering it on my own because I haven't exactly made a ton of friends yet. I am sure that will come with time... but right now I am the new girl. I pretend like I know what I am doing but secretly I have no clue. I am also too afraid to ask any questions. I feel like I am Anne Hathway on the Devil wears Prada. To bad I don't actually work for Meryl Streep.
Movie Night on the Hudson
Movie nights on the Hudson are the best! They are definitely one of the best things New York has to offer in the summer. Movies play every Wednesday night and it is FREE! The best part was watching the sun go down on the river.
Philharmonic in Central Park
The New York Philharmonic in the Parks is an iconic New York summer experience. Not only do you get the opportunity to listen to the best classical music ever! But you get to listen to it underneath the stars. Did I mention you get to do this for free? There is also a fireworks show that follows.
Firework Show!
It is the best when I have friends visiting New York. Stephen and I had a lot of fun together. We saw Aladdin the Broadway (we still can't figure out how they got the magic carpet to fly), dinner in Little Italy, Yankees game and macaroons at the famous Laduree.
Rainy Days in the City
It probably rains at least once a week in New York. I am not complaining. I love the rain and it keeps the city cool. However, because you walk EVERYWHERE in New York it makes traveling from place to place a little difficult in a down pour. Not to worry though. I always travel with an umbrella in my purse and run to the nearest Starbucks.

72nd Street
The Hudson River Waterfront Walkway has become my spot. I discovered it a few years ago while traveling to New York with my girlfriend Julie. My cousin had an apartment on 70th street. One afternoon while Julie was taking a nap I decided I wanted to go for a run. I wondered down the street and found this walkway that went out to the river. I had completely forgotten about it while living in New York this summer and remembered it one day when I was walking home from work. I rediscovered it about 3 weeks ago and I visit it weekly. It is my peaceful place where I go to eat lunch, read, listen to my ipod and watch the sunset on the river. They have free concerts every Sunday night.
