With so many things going on since I arrived to New York a little over two months ago, I haven’t stopped and really think of my situation I am on in this part of my life right now. I mean about me living in New York City.
Recently I realized of how fucking lucky I am to be here, being part of it all. So many people dream of visiting NY, and many more would kill to live here. The city is just incredible. Whenever I walk the streets I think to myself how beautiful and how unpredictable this city is.
How did I get here? Why am I here? I am a believer that everything happens for a reason, and that I am here for just that, just don’t know what that reason is yet. Last year when I was living here and then I had to move back to St. Louis, I didn’t understand how I was leaving the city which I believed had something in store for me. I thought that leaving meant not coming back again.
Now I understand that I had to go back to St. Louis. It’s destiny. This time around things are a little different. I have grown, and therefore see things differently.
In New York you get to meet a lot of interesting people. That is what I like. I like making friendships with people that have a good head in their shoulders. No druggies, no bums, no losers in my life.
I only been here a couple of months, but I feel like I am doing pretty well so far generally. Hopefully soon I will be moving in into an apartment with a friend of mine. That should be exciting. Oh the fun we will have, we being two single ladies in the big city.
I still have yet to find that one special guy. Many people have told me that I’m too young to be looking for love, but let me confess something now. Believe it or not, I have never had a boyfriend. Sad but true. I still have that to experience.
I am sure I have great moments ahead of me in this city as well as many more new friendships. Keep tuned as I go through the journey of life and share with you the good, the bad, and the ugly moments that will come my way. As Carrie from Sex and the City said:
So maybe it won’t look like you thought it would in high school, but it’s important to remember that love is possible. Anything is possible. This is New York.
I love the city and they’ll have to pry me out of here with a crowbar, but remember anything – and everything – is possible ANYWHERE. We just do it looking better! Best of luck.
