Becoming a New Yorker

I could never truly be a New Yorker, although a few habits are developing.
If you've ever crossed the street in New York, you know the people here don't wait for the crossing light. I've started to cross the street when I want, too... only in doing so, you can easily tell I'm not a native. When I jay-walk I'm still concerned about getting hit by a car, so I run or do a little jog. The natives, they just casually crossed the street, on-coming traffic or not. I could never do that.

You can see me running across the streets.
