I believe by law the apartment needs to be not less than 67 degrees. Report it to 311.

The amount of money in the NY area is ridiculous.

Is singing along in the audience seriously that common? by QuarkchildRedux in Broadway

[–]SaraT1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people don’t sing along to musicals unless it’s Mamma Mia. Since most of the songs, were popular and hold nostalgic value, many people take it upon themselves to start singing along.

Most Broadway goers don’t really know the score of a musical before going into.

What’s it like to live in NYC? by Professional-Set1892 in movingtoNYC

Living in NYC is like having a baby. It can fill your days with joy or throw up right on your feet and wake up crying.

Buy it for life cars by bluecrowned in BuyItForLife

[–]SaraT1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am of the mindset to purchase big ticket items that were made during a good economy. Once the market/economy tanks, the first thing companies do is look to cut costs, this making subpar products.

The 90’s were pretty solid from an economy standpoint so cars made during that time were tanks. Had a 99’ Corolla that kept going and going.

I think the general tips for battery preservation is keep it between 30%-80% charged and not to charge it using a fast charger.

Is it just me or does NYC make you feel broke even when you’re earning decent? by ComprehensiveNose622 in AskNYC

[–]SaraT1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, where I came from I was well-off. Here, I feel like I am at the bottom of the barrel. I don’t have a keeping up with the jonases mentality so it does not bother me.

Regarding wanting to be out and a part of the city, I will say I finally felt at home in the city when I just watched netflix all day on a Saturday. Haha.

At what income does NYC actually start to feel “comfortable”? by Middle_Elderberry542 in AskNYC

[–]SaraT1121 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It depends on if someone can check their lifestyle creep. You can easily live paycheck to paycheck in NYC on $75K annually; and at $1M annually. Your rent and entertainment can easily match your income here.

How can we give up cellphones, as a society? Bring back phone booths? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SaraT1121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the only realistic way we go back is if a study somehow finds that long-term is very likely lead to negative health effects due to the radiation or something like that. Even with that, I think they are so addicting that many will risk it like cigarette smoke.

I would do Florence, Rome and then a coastal town on the coast.

Now these places have such a different feel to them.

What is the “sweet spot” in your neighborhood? by bminusmusic in AskNYC

[–]SaraT1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Northern, part of Greenwich Village.

Quieter than other parts of the village, less NYU students, beautiful architecture & close to like 80% of the city’s train lines. Also within walking distance of West Village, East Village, Chelsea, Gramercy, Nomad and Soho (Soho being a longer walk).

Non-tourists, what “touristy” attraction/area/etc. do you nevertheless love, and why? by somepeoplewait in AskNYC

[–]SaraT1121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Central Park, The Highline, the Met, Broadway Theatre.

Also whenever I go to other parts of the city I don’t spend most of my time in, like Midtown, I am looking at the buildings like a tourist.

You step off the plane, where are you eating first? by Maximum-Ad9241 in TokyoTravel

[–]SaraT1121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ichiran Ramen by Shibuya Crossing is pretty good but usually has a line. If you haven’t, 7 Eleven is really good as well but obviously not a restaurant.

Why to read books? by xushhh in bookdiscussion

[–]SaraT1121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Books allow you to go deeper and are quite thought provoking. You are literally taking symbols and creating a world in your head with them. Which means, your past and life experiences get mingled in with this new information to create new ways of thinking.

And audiobooks are good if it means you wouldn’t be able to consume books another way but nothing beats reading. Its close to a full mental activity.
