My life be like ooh ahh
So far in New York I've enjoyed myself but I couldn't shake my fear that maybe this was a mistake.
I had been waking up with knots in my stomach feeling anxious anytime my mind was free to wander. Today was different. My internship has been going really well- I even got to go to Vogue today to run errands which is just fun lets face it. Later I started my new job as a hostess in Greenwich Village. After a long day and night of work my feet were killing me, I was beyond exhausted, but on my way home I was filled with overwhelming happiness and excitement. I realized that I'm doing what I came here to do I'M FINALLY DOING IT. Not just that I am doing it but I can do it. I think something else I feared was that maybe I wasn't capable of handling the reality of fulfilling my goals. What if I moved here and the city ate me alive and I just couldn't do it? That would be soul crushing. Realizing that I can handle it is a huge relief.
I don't know what going to happen tomorrow, but I know it's all worth it for those few minutes when I can literally FEEL my dreams becoming a reality.
So if you take anything away from this cheese fest- do what makes you happy, even if it scares you. Or something...

This will make you appreciate the subways in NYC
This is how millions of people get to work everyday in Japan, they are literally SHOVED onto very crowded trains by- Train Pushers. Yes it's an official job!
I'm not in Kansas (Bloomington) anymore
10 days ago I packed my life into 4 suitcases and moved from Bloomington Indiana to Midtown Manhattan. Living in NYC has been a dream of mine since I first visited the city when I was 13. Now that it's finally a reality it's just as exciting as I'd imagined it to be but it's also extremely overwhelming and kind of scary. Overall though I feel beyond lucky to have this experience!
