Jessie's New York Summer

Jess is having a great summer living in NYC and working for Goldman, here's a list of some of her favorite things!

- The 2 minute commute to work (2 blocks down the street)
- Going for runs on the Brooklyn Bridge or around Battery Park City
- Trying to hail a cab but having a stretch limo offers its services instead - and for only $15
- Cupcakes from Magnolia Bakery
- Movie nights in Bryant Park
- Eating out at various cool/yummy restaurants
- Spending Sunday afternoons in Central Park
- Seeing some great up and coming bands/comedians
- Visiting museums for free thanks to her Goldman Sachs ID
- Sailing lessons (soon to come!)

A few not so favorite things, but memorable none the least

- Having a mouse scamper across her feet in the subway
- Being chased down the street by a 200 + pound drunk man
- Realizing that eating out in NYC isn't exactly the same bang for your buck you would get in Provo
- Sitting in a cubicle day in and day out - watching my tan slowly fade away
- Developing a hatred for income tax and social security (it's pay day today)
