Joel has been working in the building for 3 months. He loves the architecture of the surroundings and is very positive about the city. He likes that he can actually help people in his job, with their mail or dry cleaning for example. The only downside of New York in his opinion is the commuting, which sometimes makes him late for work. And he hates that.
Joel was born in the Dominican Republic but came to New York when he was a kid. He always lived in Manhattan.
He experienced some amusing situations in this buiding. For example when someone came down, half naked, to ask for a spare set of keys because he or she got locked out of the apartment.
He does not know yet what he wants to do after his studies. Drawing is something he is very good at. Art has always been the class where he got his best grades. Some teachers told him to stick to it. But right now, he is thinking of a Law career, maybe District Attorney or lawyer. He is going back to college in the Fall so in the meantime, he just copes with life, to see what happens.
If teachers tell him once again to stick to Art, maybe he will.
