Still here...

I'm still here! The problem with posting is my apartment is lacking one major necessity - Internet! Whenever I need it, I go to a nearby Starbucks or use my phone. So obviously, it's this lack of wifi that makes posting so difficult (I'm at my brother's now, using his Internet).

It's been quite the experience here in NYC. I can't say it's all been positive. There have been major negatives that have caused me to question my purpose of moving here, but hopefully after some events this past week things will turnaround soon. Work has played a big part in my experience. I love being around beautiful clothing, but I wish I worked more with the actual pieces, instead of just moving them from place to place. There are some crazy Givenchy and Alexander McQueen gowns that make me appreciate couture and the designers behind them so much more.

My future here is unknown. I'm thinking I will stay at least through September and work fashion week, but then...? NYC is a great city and I love it every time I'm out on the streets, but I miss predictable sunny (SUNNY being a key word) LA weather and Murakami sushi! I guess it's to be expected having lived here for less than a month.

Things that would help my LA to NYC transition - the weather warming up and staying that way, the cookies I enjoy so much in Chelsea Market being marked down from $4 to $1, and that somehow there could be less walking and stairs so I could bust out the heels more often. I purchased some of the notoriously comfortable Reva flats this weekend. With all the walking in this city, my feet will fall off in a month's time in 4 inchers.

Here's to a better next five months.

P.S. R Kells visits this week. Excitement!
