She's that girl

My best friend came over and we watched the entire 5th season of Sex and the City. Before that, she handed me an autographed copy of the book by the same title she had gotten for me... yes she is this awesome, and no I didn't ask for el book.

She's the friend that will hide behind a bush because you need moral support while breaking up with someone who is toxic for you... she's the friend that will remind you that you are awesome when you're feeling down... the friend who will support your crazy dreams, the one that sends you cards for Valentines days... the girl next door that will pick up the phone and will listen intently about the most corny insignificant story in the world... She's honest and sweet.

I swear everyone needs a friend like her...

Cheers to the girlfriends out there that become sisters in the long run.

Love you Daze!

Challenge Yourself

I like that I have friends who challenge my way of thinking and the way I process things. We all have different perspectives and move at our own pace in this life.

I think it's important to constantly strive to grow as a person, and others constructive criticism of you is necessary for this. But what I think is more important is that you sit and meditate, and recognize the things that you need to work on. Not for others, but because in the long run it will make you happy.

I recognize my faults as a young woman, and believe me I am trying every day to get a little better at this conscious adult thing...

I am not trying to reach perfection, as that is ridiculous. I am simply trying to be happy.

Love yourself! Others will follow...

dazed and confused

I feel like what I imagine Carrie felt when burger left her that post it...

Realize. Accept. Keep it moving'

Skip

I'd like to skip all the "you have to pay you're dues" and land on a stable not-so-scary place in my career...

I'd like to skip all the horrible dates, the games, the one day I like you so much and the next I'm going to take 6 hours to text back a simple "hello", and land at real-simple-tell it like it is- love...

Until then, there is hope and faith.

My face always gives away my emotions

Excited

To be back in my element and see how the rest of this year goes for me...

See you soon concrete jungles!

11 Days

I can't wait to be back in my city! I miss NYC so much it's really unexplainable. My nights of random moments with my close girlfriends, my mothers cooking, talks with my older cousin, the transferring of trains, my hair salon in Washington Heights, my favorite Thai spot in the LES, the sound of bachata blaring from someone's car, the people watching at Union Sq...

You truly learn to appreciate something precious when it has been removed from your life for a while... I'm glad I was away for six months. Perspective is key in life.
