New York City, New York.

Places I am happy to be.

Walked my way to work on Sunday. Park Slope, Bklyn to Soho, NYC. Felt many a things while walking over the Brooklyn Bridge [pictured here.] Mostly, Iucky (+ grateful.)

Time has hit me, finally. NY has been a whirlpool of change ever since I’ve arrived, but yesterday marked my greatest attempt to slow it all down. I looked at the calendar, which read Wednesday, August 19. Next week is Chelsea’s last week. Three weeks later, it’s mine.

Generally, time tends to feel infinite for me. Weeks go fast, but they keep on coming. Today is Thursday already, and I’ll get another Thursday next week. Yesterday, though, (for the first time) I realized my Thursdays in the city are running out.

“I can’t just keep giving and giving,” Time said. “You only get 4 more.”
“Nooooo,” I whined. “I want more. I’m not ready, yet.”
And Time just smiled in reply.
