Default Summer in New York City

So I luckboxed my way into a summer internship at a financial firm in NYC. 10 weeks in the city... working and probably living in midtown. The hours of work are gonna suck. Hopefully I'll have the weekends off.

What are some cool things to do, places to eat, clubs, lounges, fun [censored] to do? Rent is a bitch... so any cash-churning/rent-reducing tips would be cool too. Anybody know of any weekend soccer leagues/pick-up games?

Damn I'm excited...

They'll be taking you out for the most part so don't worry about that so much. I hope you like Excel and Powerpoint.

I suggest you reconsider looking for a place only within walking distance of work. A short subway ride would be very easy, and give you the choice of many different neighborhoods.
