appropriately titled:










i just moved from my apartment in the upper east side to one in brooklyn and found this written on the wall of my new room.

to think i almost stayed in sf for the summer blows my mind. i know it's not over just yet, but i already feel nostalgic. coming to ny for the summer has really sparked something in me. since college i've been floating through life, working, yea, but not really working toward a goal... if you know what i mean. then i jumped. i made the decision to go to the adcenter (against many people's advice) to do something that i wanted to do, something for me. ya know? to place a new goal for myself, something that would make me happy.

so as fate has it, i made it in and here i am now interning in ny for the summer. the people i've met at the adcenter (yes, the adcenter, but also the brandcenter, just not in my head) are amazing. they've touched my life and inspired me in ways that i have not felt for years. the last time i was around people this passionate about something, i was practicing hip hop dance 4 days a week till 4 in the morning.

the point of this post is to say, fuck it. im happy. and im looking forward to jumping more often.

new york.

i haven't really in a while because life has been fun and hectic. i started my internship and i'm loving it! the people are really smart and funny but super down to earth for a boutique-y creative shop. i would love to work for them in the future!

new york has been good to me. i've been connecting with old friends from as far back as high school. its crazy how many people end up moving here. i've been thinking a lot lately about trying to get a job and moving here after school. the thought of having to go back for another year at the adcenter is overwhelming, not like in a "the work is difficult way" but more like in a "fuckin why can't i just start working again way." ya kno?

anyhow, i'm going to keep it short today with no pictures. its hard to find time to post when i am out and about finding trouble to get into and meeting people all day! i love it here!
