Moving!

Finally, I am taking the next step. I'm moving to a city that I've always wanted to live in. New York City! I'm super excited about the move and super nervous all at the same time. I leave soon. Very soon. Hopefully, my next blog will be from one of the five boroughs.

I start school in the fall and hope to spend the summer making a little cash somewhere fun and hanging out with all the people that I know in the city. It's going to be fabulous. I'll finally feel like Carrie (yes, I did make a Sex and the City reference) and be able to talk about the fabulous-ness of the city. Going out and seeing all kinds of different people. And I'll get to play my favorite game--walking by people and guessing what language they are speaking. Yes, I'm easily amused. :)

I'm excited except when I think about the fact that I don't have a roommate or an apartment. But I hope to find both soon upon my arrival. I have one possibility. She seems like we might just work out. Hopefully, we can agree on a location. For as little space as it takes up, it's not easy to commute long distances across the city. I look forward to having no car and no car insurance payment. It'll all be made up for when I pay my rent though. Nora is going to be a city dog again. She will be a fabulous dog rocking it in the city. I think I'm ready for the challenge. After all, this is what I get up and do. I move. I chase the dream. I keep going. Now I just hope I can make it through first year. If I do well first semester, I'm golden. I may not have any friends, but I'll catch up with them over winter break. I'm so scared to fail. This is the first thing that I have been this nervous about failing. But I'm pushing forward, I'm going to love school and love the pursuit of this dream and hope that it's the right path. If I don't do well first year, I'll officially be a dog trainer and I'll go where ever I must to get certified. There is a dog here at the shelter that I want. She's a poodle mix and super sweet. She has those sad eyes though. Like she's been neglected. It makes me just want to take her home and love her. But alas, I'm moving and I can only take one dog on the plane. :)

Off we go into the wild blue yonder, dreaming big and scared shitless.
