favorite city in the world

When I get to go to New York City I am in heaven. Its not just the shopping but it is the whole atmosphere. It is my favorite place in the world to go to. Does anyone else feel the same and why? If not where do you like to visit?

PurleyQueen I have only been to NYC once (I live in the UK) but I totally LOVED it! I took my daughter to stay at the Hudson Hotel in the Theater (check out that American spelling!) to celebrate her 21st birthday and we were in the city for 10 days. I'm not really into...

The scene in which Salvatore (Toto) tells his mother that it's only an hour's plane trip from Rome to get back to his hometown has to be one of the most heartbreaking in cinema. His mother's response "Don't tell me that after all...

PurleyQueen This is pretty much how I viewed the movie and I thought it ultimately sent out a positive message. I don't know if Meryl Streep was convincing (I've never worked in such a glamorous environment) but she was pretty fantastic and looked fabulous. That's all!

PurleyQueen I was in a job where my (female) manager was the boss from hell and I ended up completely demoralized. I was determined not to let her get away with it and stood up to her all the way. In the end, I think she finally recognized that I wasn't going to let her...
