Big Apple!!!

I'm in New York!!!! It's kind of crazy actually being here. My first night was an absolute blast! I was asked if I wanted to see the Broadway premiere of Bring It On! The Musical, and OF COURSE I wanted to go! So much more fun than packing! Unfortunately, my flight was delayed and I ended up only having a minute to change into a dress and throw my makeup in the bag after getting lost in my cab from JFK delayed me some more. All in all, a very eventful first day in NY. My apartment is pretty nice. It's different from home, but it's fairly spacious in my room and now that I have a window AC unit (Oh my gosh, just get the AC unit, it is worth it! Fans just don't feel the same!) I am doing pretty good. I have to continue the job hunt, but I bought groceries and a lot of things I needed today. Overall productive in a sense, but I'll feel much better once I start working again (and hopefully in theatre&/or lighting and electrics!). I am trying to stay positive because this is truly a surreal experience and I am blessed to be here now. I hope I can look back and know I made a good move. But right now, for better or for worse, I am fulfilling one of my dreams. A dream I have had ever since I was little and realized how much I love theatre. I never thought it would actually take me this far, but I am so extremely happy that it has!
