by:Anthony J Trimboli Contributor- I am a 29 year old contributor to the QueensPost.com writing to share my thoughts with you on one element of Queens although it is part of New York City that is relatively good to see in a city.
Today, I had to attend a special ceremony for an organization I volunteered with in Manhattan on the Lower East Side. The organization was a small group.
Manhattan is bustling. You have people from all over coming and going around the area. Today, somebody pushed me into a payphone under the Manhattan bridge. I was walking around and somebody must have been leaping around or jumping around or running while walking and they land me right into the payphone on the street under the Brooklyn Bridge.
One part about MANY parts of Queens(although some of its residents have affiliations to Manhattan--Brooklyn still can branch apart from Manhattan and so can the community I was in today, Chinatown, which sort of sections itself off) is that you see concerned Queens residents who will bang you into a payphone and then apologize or do it in a way that is not walking while leaping down East Broadway in Chinatown. Although Brooklyn has less of a tie to the sphere of Manhattan--people say that Queens can have a strong one, I believe yes and truly not at all, what a ridiculous incident before this event I had to go today.
Who needs to be pushed into a payphone by somebody who just does not really care or really know how to merely walk?? Is the area really this big a tourist attraction??? Being pushed into a payphone is hard and it hurts a little. Plus, the person kept on walking and running and skipping down the street.
Who needs something like where you are pushed into a payphone by somebody who just does not care???
I just wanted to share this with you. I write for this paper and am a contributor, age 29.
