Union Square New York

As the most populated city in the country, New York is a hub for people from various walks of life - people who can be polite and don't mind getting to know each other.

New Yorkers are an interesting lot. Because of their focus on their careers, they tend to be thought of as power-hungry or very ambitious. In truth, they fear loneliness, and so they turn to bar hopping to meet singles like them. Being a New Yorker means that your career comes first, though in reality, the people are looking for that special someone who they can share their life with. They're not a snobbish people - they just find it harder to commit.

New York has a corner for everyone. There are arcades, bowling alleys, and pool halls for fun dating. Colleges for intellectual pursuits, gyms for those who want to experience physical fitness together, parks for romantic walks, and spoken word lounges for the intellectual and spiritual type.

For specific spots, Mars 2112 is the place for a fun date. For something more formal, the Water Club and Manhattan Grille are sound choices, and for formal Italian, Brunelli's the place to go. If you just want to sit down and have a nice leisurely date, go to Central Park or Washington Square Park. Bars are not that romantic, though clubs with good music are nice. There's the Midtown, the Lower East Side, The Knitting Factory, and Tribeca. If it's the classical arts your date craves, bring him/her to the New York Philharmonic and the Metropolitan Opera. And for a really interesting afternoon, drop by Union Square - bookstores, costume stores, and music stores galore.

If you can't afford an expensive date, take her on a ride on the Staten Island Ferry at sunset. Feel the sun's rays and the wind's touch, and enjoy the beauty around you.

new york city high schools?

hey im thinking about what HS i want to apply to. im really good at tennis and vollyball and have a 99 average in creative writing. i love being around city people and art majors, any suggestions on what school i should go to around the west 4th or union square or any village area HS?
any campus schools too? i just want to go to an nice school in manhattan with sport teams and an advanced writing program

I really suggest that you take that big, big book of high schools that your guidance counselor will give you in the next week or so, and ignore all the schools too far away to travel and then go through the book page by page till you come up with a short list of schools you are interested in.

You might also try to research some of the schools that seem interesting on the following site:

Insideschools.org

They provide reviews for every school in the City, plus good tips on how to choose a school.

Then, once you have a list of schools that interest you, go visit them and see if you are still interested. Many of the schools will have open houses in September.

Oh, and the Dept. of Education held really useful meetings last summer about schools that fit into different catagories (specialized schools - the ones you take the SHSAT to get into, arts schools, small schools, etc.) You might try to attend a few of these workshops.

Goodl luck.
