First few days in NY
June 26, 2009
It’s been a few days since my move out here, three to be exact, and things have been fun and funny as ever. My first actual full day I did some work on my portfolio, went for a run, took a bunch of photos outside, went to a book reading of buzz aldrin, and relaxed.
The next day I had an interview on wall street which I was excited/nervous about. I was even so nervous about the interview itself, I was more nervous about getting to the interview. I am staying at my cousin’s house in Long Island, so I had to take the train by myself and then get on the correct subway to my last stop. Those are both things I had never done before so I was nervous I would get lost, but I have to say I didn’t get lost and I was even early to my interview.
On my way back home on the train I sat with these 3 other ladies plus a baby. Somehow on the hour long ride I was asked to explain to the youngest girl who could have been anywhere from 13-20, what menopause is! I had no idea what to say. Also, if you don’t know me I don’t look my age. I’m 24 but I look 19 or 20, so I found it weird that the mom couldn’t tell her own daughter about menopause, it seemed more appropriate for a stranger to do so.
Today!!
Newsday is here today to photograph my little cousin’s room and to interview my cousin and I. It’s so cool knowing that something so small like painting my little cousin’s room can turn into something like a two page spread in a paper in NY.
Sigh, alright here are some nice pictures from my run the other day.
