…Yes we are full of crap, yes we pretended to be out of town so we can sleep with you and leave in the morning. But you know what’s even worse than that, saying you’re a New Yorker when you’re not because this is the greatest city in the world and you have to earn the right to call yourself a New Yorker. So why don’t you just crawl into the open sewer pipe you call the holland tunnel and flush yourselves back into ‘pretty much New York’ because I would do a lot to get laid BUT I AM NOT GOING TO NEW JERSEY.

An Excuse for NYC
Like most people, I can’t quite pick up my life and move to New York City.
So, why not start your own life there?
If you are graduating high school, and have always wanted New York to be your home, consider college a get-a-way. Of course, there is always the problem of getting in, so if you don’t get in to a NY college, New Jersey or Vermont or other New England state colleges are your next best choice. Always look into your options, though. The college must be right for you. And you always have your college afterlife; New York is the perfect young-nightlife city to enjoy.
Anyhow, here is some info on some NYC colleges and universities. Check them out!
