When I was in the 6th grade I visited New York City for the first time.
I loved the big lights, the people, all the things to do.
At that moment I told my parents that one day I would live in New York. It was my dream.
I continued through all my schooling and this past winter break went to NYC with two of my best friends for new years!
It was the best trip ever! I got to spend new years with millions of people in Time Square. I fell in love again.
For the past 6 months I have been on the job search. I have looked all over while focusing in on New York but have continued to come up short. The past couple of weeks I have thought I would just have to move home (Oklahoma) after graduation.
But my parents have decided to make me the DEAL of all DEALS.
They have officially rented me an apartment in Brooklyn NY for three months. EEEEKKK!!!
I have three months to find a job, find a new apartment, and decide if living out of the south is for me.
Here is the scary part: If after three months the above has not all happened... I move to Oklahoma.
I only know a handful of people who live around the city and I'm living in a cute apartment with a random roommate. I know nothing about living in New York or city life.
Okay i'll admit it. I'm totally scared. I'm scared i'll fail, I'm scared i'll get lost, I'm scared of public transportation.
But I think if I can just make it all happen... this might just be a dream come true.
