I Made It To New York City!
"I MADE IT TO NEW YORK CITY "...hang on, I'm gonna have to read that again: "I MADE IT TO NEW YORK CITY "! Even after 7 months of exploring, discovering and experiencing this absolutely wild, and often times chaotic place, that sentence isn't computing in my brain as reality. Although months has passed, I still have a hard time believing I actually took this giant leap into unknown territory. It took me ten years of saying I was going to move here before I finally did i t, and I am proud to say: I AM HERE. Now, I must be transparent and share with you all: IT HAS BEEN MUCH HARDER THAN I EXPECTED. People weren't joking when they gave me advice with a raised eyebrow and a "good luck" pat on the shoulder, once I told them the news of my NYC plans. It has been probably the most challenging chapter of my entire life, which in turn has made me much stronger and resilient, even when I don't want to be. This city sorta forces you to grow...
