new york in moderation

When I moved to New York, I soon discovered one of the most amazing, and simultaneously difficult things about this city: there is always a million things to do. I sometimes imagine what it must be like to visit this city as a tourist, to just do everything you could possibly want to do, eat every meal out, go to a million shows, plays, concerts, art galleries, shop in SoHo and buy everything you want. But thats not what its like when you live here, especially not as a student on a somewhat tight budget. You have to pick and choose what you go to, you have to learn to say no to things. If I lived like a tourist every day I would be broke very quickly.
