Albert Cyprys Values Education



For many people around the world education becomes a priority in life once they've been able to take care of their other needs. This is true for people in poor and rich countries. It becomes much easier for people in rich countries to educate themselves and attend better schools. Albert Cyprys is very thankful that he grew up in the US and has taken advantage of the educational opportunities he has in this country.

Albert Cyprys is an undergraduate student at Fairfield University, and he has enjoyed his time immensely at the school. Since joining, he has always committed himself to his classes. Albert Cyprys knows how valuable it will be to get good grades and learn as much as he can, especially for his future career.

Albert Cyprys is focusing mostly on accounting during his time at Fairfield University. He will graduate soon with a degree in accounting, but has been very appreciative of the other electives and courses unrelated to accounting that he has taken in the past. If it weren't for the serious commitment that he makes regarding his education, Albert Cyprys would not have a promising accounting career ahead of him.

Looking back on his educational achievements feels good to Albert Cyprys. He put in a lot of time and effort to get where he is today, but he always remembers to help others in need. Throughout school, Albert Cyprys has volunteered at local soup kitchens as well as senior centers to give back to his community.

Albert Cyprys: Committed to Helping Others



One of the most valuable traits a person can have is that of charity. In many parts of the world, charity is an integral part of culture and religion. In the US, there are countless charities and organizations built around helping others live a better life. Albert Cyprys has always been a supporter of these organizations.

Not only does Albert Cyprys support the concept of helpful, not-for-profit organizations, he also donates his time and finances to helping these organizations succeed. As a student, Albert Cyprys is aware of the opportunities his education has provided (and continues to provide) throughout his life. He also knows that not everyone has the same access to education that he did when they were growing up.

With that in mind, Albert Cyprys makes it a point to spend some of his time every week helping at senior centers and at soup kitchens. These organizations do a great deal of good for people in New York City, Albert Cyprys' home city. He knows how important volunteers are to these organizations as well. Many of them do not have the funds to fully staff their operations, so they rely on volunteers like Albert Cyprys to fill in where they cannot pay someone.

When he's not volunteering at local organizations, Albert Cyprys spends a lot of his time working and studying for his classes. Currently, Albert Cyprys is a student at Fairfield University where he studies accounting and other subjects. After he finishes school, he hopes to be able to continue volunteering and helping organizations in his community.

A New Yorker’s Guide to Getting Broadway Tickets From Albert Cyprys

Coming to New York City can be overwhelming, acknowledges Albert Cyprys. The city can especially be overwhelming if you want to see a Broadway show and have no idea where to start. There are a number of systems in place that can complicate the matter for those who have never seen a show, so Albert Cyprys is here to offer advice as far as how to get tickets without any more hassle than necessary.
  • If you know exactly which show you want to see, then it will be easy to find out where it is being performed, which is exactly what you need to know if you plan to buy tickets directly from the box office, says Albert Cyprys. This is actually an excellent idea if you do not want to pay extra fees or surcharges, adds Albert Cyprys.
  • On the other hand, you may just be here for a few days, notes Albert Cyprys. While he has never used this service, Albert Cyprys knows several people who have acquired tickets through hotel concierge services. This is a way to get premium seats at the last minute, so Albert Cyprys notes that it is extremely important to remember that these tickets can be very pricey.
  • Of course, there are always the TKTS booths in Brooklyn and Times Square, which is definitely the best way to get discounted tickets. These booths sell all kinds of Broadway tickets on the day of the performance for up to 50%, says Albert Cyprys, but watch out for the lines – get there early.

Albert Cyprys: Best Manhattan Attractions



Native New Yorker Albert Cyprys believes that everyone deserves to see and hear the sights and sounds of his home city. It is for this reason that Albert Cyprys loves sharing some of his favorite attractions in the Big Apple.

First and foremost is the American Museum of Natural History, which is a definite favorite for Albert Cyprys. There are so many exhibits to enjoy in this museum, and Albert Cyprys has a hard time deciding between his own favorites: either the huge reconstructed dinosaur skeletons and fossils, or the famous 94-foot-long model of a blue whale.

A musician at heart, Albert Cyprys enjoys the Radio City Music Hall enormously. This is of course one of the most famous performance venues in the entirety of New York City, and for good reason. According to Albert Cyprys, the design of the Radio City Music Hall creates an incredible space for attending live music, where the stage and proscenium arches are designed to take on the appearance of the setting sun.

Of course, what’s New York City without the most famous haunts? Albert Cyprys may be a native New Yorker, but of course he would never knock places like Union Square, which is a central location named for the fact that two of the most famous and busiest streets in the city meet. Albert Cyprys believes Union Square is interesting on a day even where nothing is happening, but this famous square is also host to rallies, assemblies, events, protests, and, of course, the famous New York City Greenmarket.

Albert Cyprys Loves the Diversity of New York



One of Albert Cyprys’ favorite things about New York is the diversity he encounters nearly every day. As he skateboards to work in the mornings, he never knows who he will meet. Sometimes, it can be as brief as passing an interesting character on the street. Often, however, Albert Cyprys has the opportunity for a deeper interaction.

Albert Cyprys believes firmly in helping those around him, so he has spent a lot of time with New York’s homeless population. He has been deeply touched by the stories he hears of their lives, and the rich diversity of histories, experiences, and personalities he encounters. Albert Cyprys considers it important to keep the voice of the homeless alive and strong. He does his best to remind them that they have support and are not invisible.

Albert Cyprys also meets a huge variety of people through playing different sports and through playing music. Albert Cyprys plays soccer and tennis regularly, on top of the time he spends at skate parks with his board. He especially likes pick-up games of soccer because you never know who you’re going to meet. Albert Cyprys has met everyone from kids who have never touched a soccer ball before to businessmen who took off their suit jackets and schooled everyone else playing.

Something similar happens with music. Albert Cyprys learned that people have a tendency to open up about their lives and their stories when playing music. He considers himself lucky to have had the opportunity to meet so many people and learn about their lives.

Albert Cyprys Explores New York by Skateboard



Albert Cyprys’ skateboard has taken him all over the city. Since he made the committed effort to give up most public transportation (not to mention his own car), Albert Cyprys has been using his skateboard as his primary method of transportation. By sticking to the sidewalks, Albert Cyprys has learned more about his city than he ever could have while sitting in a bus or the back of a taxicab.

First, Albert Cyprys learned that he is not alone. There is a thriving, vibrant community of New Yorkers who get around by alternative methods of transportation. Albert Cyprys loves the feeling of connecting with others throughout the day as they pass by each other.

Second, Albert Cyprys has discovered the majority of his favorite haunts around New York because he skated past them. This is something that never would have happened inside a vehicle or on the subway. Albert Cyprys’ favorite pizza joint lies through an alleyway he tried as a shortcut once. His favorite record store lives in a neighborhood he stumbled across when one of his board’s wheels broke and he needed a repair fast. And Albert Cyprys cannot find himself the fifteen or so blocks away from his home without stopping for a coffee at a cafĂ© that’s the best-kept secret in New York.

Of course, when the weather gets too horrible, Albert Cyprys will cave and hop on a bus, or take the subway the three miles to work. But by and large, he much prefers to explore the open air on his board, and see what he will stumble across next.
