it is better to live your own destiny imperfectly than to live an imitation of somebody else's life with perfection.

(quote -- Bhagavad Gita...called out in Eat, Pray, Love)

4 months after my last post, I started a job at a small tech company in NYC. Yes, there's been a ton of changes in my life. A stressful few months,  job hunting, a trip to south america, moving, new friends, love/hate relationship with the IKEA in Brooklyn & shady folks on craiglist...oh & something called graduation + pre-grad final term festivities...the list goes on. 

It is now just over 6 months since that post, and I have so much to recount, but have been as bad as ever at this. It was always on my calendar, but always got pushed, without no hard, fast deadline or anyone holding me accountable. 

It's now almost 1:30am in the morning (I still can't seem to get to sleep before this hour, more like 2am too; habit has stuck since Fuqua!) ....& I'm wide awake trying to finish as much as I can of putting together my tiny apartment for a self-inflicted housewarming I'm hosting tomorrow night after work. The space is tiny, but it's in an awesome neighborhood & it's my first foray at trying to live alone (though paying dearly for it..."rent poor"). 

But I must get back to hanging frames & trying to find more places to hide all my random excess stuff to make space for folks trampling in & judging me in less than 12 hours! hopefully it'll be less than 6 months till I write again.
