As we write this tonight, it is the end of the third week of Career Explorations. There is only a week left, and it is hard to believe how fast the experience is passing. Looking back through the past month, the thing that stands out most is being able to explore the city while bonding with friends.
The city holds a plethora of exciting places like Broadway theaters, frozen yogurt stores, Central Park, vintage shops, Magnolia Bakery, comedy clubs, and Citi Field. And of course, a Starbucks on every corner! Getting places is no problem with our unlimited metro cards, and CE rules that keep us with a friend at all times ensure that we won't get lost.
When we aren't working or exploring the city, we spend time in each other's suites watching TV, gossiping, ordering pizza, Chinese, or sushi, and drawing on the walls. (Markerboard walls, that is!) Dorm life has enabled us to bond with our new friends and see what college life might be like. We are sad to leave our new home so soon, but are glad we got the experience to live with each other and do something different for our summer.
New York City has offered us a great life experience. We were able to spend time out of our hometowns and explore new places. As we leave we bring back new friendships, work experience, and memories with us that will last a lifetime.
