Short break is over

I had a very long Memorial Day weekend. I need the break anyway. On May 25th, Wall Street was teeming with tourists from all over the world and same goes with the other tourist-must-see places in New York. With the 500+ skyscrapers, I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. And I didn't mind looking up all the time, craning my neck left and right, just to check out the magnificent buildings in Manhattan. The Empire State Building, Trump Tower, GE Building where Rockefeller Center is located, Flatiron Building where Peter Parker works, the Ghost Buster building, and not to mention the posh apartments with elaborate art deco facade in uptown NY.




New York is a nice place to work but I'd think twice about living in this state. Cost of living is expensive. That's a given.

The shops in 5th Avenue are drool-worthy. Splurge if you can afford it but for budget shoppers like me, I think New Jersey is a better option because taxes are lower.


I could go on and on but I think pictures would be the most perfect way to describe the grandeur and opulence in Manhattan.





That's it for the short break, it's back to work for me later tonight.
