Who doesn't love Christmas in New York? Even being a native New Yorker, I still love doing the touristy bit! Last night was one of those times!
The 7th Street and Alumni Hall Council (the one I'm Secretary for) provided 25 students with wayyy reduced tickets ($15) to see the Radio City Christmas Spectacular (yep, the Rockettes). I asked some of my friends to go and we had so much fun. The show was fun--I had seen it before (the night I got my NYU acceptance actually)--it's always a reminder of how much I've wanted to be a Rockette but, thanks to being just barely 5'2" I'll never be able to. Anyway, the show was fun and since it was over so early (8-9:30) we decided to go around the corner to Rockefeller Center. Two girl friends and I took pictures in front of the tree and Saks (where the snowflakes are displayed on the windows in lights) and just walked around for a little while getting excited for Christmas.
Whether you've never done it or you've been up there a lot, it's always fun to check out the area, take some pictures, and enjoy the holiday spirit (and try not to think about all the work that awaits you at home)!
Merry (early) Christmas!!! And Happy Hanukkah to those celebrating this week! :)
