Today is my 6th day living in Brooklyn. I made the firm decision to move to NY on New Years Eve. On April 1st my car was packed and drove to NY from California. I stayed with a friend in Long Island while I worked from my laptop and looked at apartments in the city. It took 2 weeks to find my perfect place and another week to move in and get my stuff organized so I actually felt like I had my own cool space. It’s still not DONE, I still need furniture and things on the walls to make it homey, but it’s mine and I’m happy.

But my rule is only invest what you're willing to lose. And I'm just going to leave that money there for years, and hopefully the economy will turn around and the investment will be worth something, at least as much as the money I put into it.Then I set up personal, business and savings acc… Read how I did it…
Just got it done Saturday. And I couldn’t be happier. I’ve wanted to for soooo long. But something would come up, or I was busy or something. Now it’s done and I freaking love it.
Well I wouldn’t say this is completely DONE, but last night I sent an email to a boy, saying some things I’ve been too worried to say for MONTHS. And OH MY HELL it was liberating. I don’t care if he never writes back because I did it for me. Without integrity we are nothing. I feel free. And I didn’t care what he would think. And it felt great. I highly recommend it.
