Home is where you make it. I think I’ll make it here.

AUGUST 26th, 2011

I can honestly say that I haven’t logged into my tumblr account for almost two months. Since I’ve last written, a lot of things have changed. Living in the new Brooklyn apt + New awesome neighbors. In fact, I feel like I am back in college. The other week our next door neighbors came to the door and said “Hey, so were having this party next weekend, you know, havin’ a band or two play. Just wanted to give you guys a heads up!” They ended up playing until 5. And not the 5 in the afternoon kind. Just last week my other neighbor across the hall locked herself outside of her apartment (she had been sitting in the hallway for around 4 hours) It took about 2 hours, but finally I broke into her apartment like a sketchy burglar with a shitty piece of bent metal. Good times… And then there’s the dude who asked me if he could borrow a stick of butter. and he used the word borrow.

So to recap. Since my last post I…

Moved to the Brookland

Found some awesome coffee shops

Had some magnificent pizza

Witnessed an fantastically talented alien mask wielding saxophone duo on the Union Square L line.

Fixed my bike.

Bought 4 new pairs of shoes. Pretty sure I like shoes too much.

Met oodles of new people

Attended our buildings annual 4th of July rooftop party. Almost got killed by stray mortar rockets. but it was all good

Moved back in with our old roommates from philadelphia (gair and lena)

Witnessed and felt a 5+ Magnitude earthquake in Manhattan. One of the areas largest in a long time

Hope to survive Hurricane Irene ( cat 2 ) which is expected to hit fully on Sunday.

I love New York. I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for me. I look forward to constantly bettering myself. No matter what it takes. I never truly understood this city until I moved here. It is not something you can put into words. the possibilities here are absolutely endless. Now if only I could look up and see the stars, this city would be perfect. And I’m not talking about staring up at a building in Soho. I<3NY

I’ll enclose a couple new photos In a following post.
