Summer in New York City is the best! You have so many exciting activities at your finger tips. There's plays, parks, festivals, concerts, and beaches a train/bus/zipcar ride away!
But the sad part is - I don't do any of it!
Last summer, I think I wore my bathing suit about two times. And what was my reason for not going out? I was too "busy." With what I busy with, I don't even recall. New Yorkers say they're busy all the time - but the truth is we're so frickin' overwhelmed!
But not this year! I've decided to put my Virgo powers to good use and get organized for the season! Time Out New York, my iPhone and Evernote have been my best friends in helping make this season's summer city bucket list. Everytime I come across an event, I snap a pic and upload it to one of my Evernote notebooks. I've already crossed off a couple things and the summer hasn't even officially started yet!
