As anyone knows, living in a city tends to make one complacent and take things for granted that most tourists don't pass up. I thought it would be good for me to at least recall some of the places I've been and the things that I've done while in New York. Of course, an exhaustive list would be impossible, but I want to remind myself what I've done, so that I can leave without any regrets.
