the east coast swing (i)

the name isnt exactly an alliteration, but what the hell....i know i originally started this blog to write about my travels but since my move to new york, ive felt that this is the craziest journey i have gone about so far. lets see how well i keep up with my blogging.

approximately a year ago for my birthday one of my best friends gave me the best thing i own-my very own personalized calendar complete with pictures of our escapades. i didnt realize how valuable it actually was to me until i moved across the country from her. now as im getting ready to flip to the last page in the calendar (showing the month of june 2009), i also didnt realize how quickly time had flown since it was given to me. i honestly thought the pages would never end and i would be able to flip to a new month with crazier pictures and better memories than the one before.

june 2009 will also mark my 6 month anniversary of moving to new york i guess i feel nostalgic that i cant look to the calendar anymore not only because ive been here so long, but because im sad of friends and experiences that are portrayed in that calendar.

i know its stupid to feel sorry myself that i haven't made what is equivalent to a 6 year friendship in 6 months, but i am so impatient. it also sucks to know i did this to myself and most of the people that i love most are still at home.

Your friends are always going to be there for you, Steph. Hokey but true. They may be on the other side of the country, but they're cheering for you and waiting eagerly to hear about your next adventures. Don't worry, you will make plenty of friends in due time.

Enjoy New York! Enjoy each step in life and all the challenges it brings. Please don't regret this move. We can't do this any other point in our lives because we'll be too old or too busy. It's possible that you won't have this chance again.

Miss you lots.
