THIRD PLACE “I’ve never been in New York City before. I’ve pretty much been to every another major city in the States, so this is like a whole new experience for me. I’ve completely fallen in love with everything about it. I feel like there is just something very romantic, I guess this is a good word about New York City. It’s very stereotypical, and it lives up to its stereotypes. To me, I like that a lot. You know you also heard that New Yorkers are pushy, they are rude. Everything is fast pace, it’s ‘go, go, go’. That is very much how I am as a person, so I felt I fit right in here.”
