im so tired

it's so weird because this job can be so amazing on the one hand, and so frustrating on the other. it's hard not to freak out but the good is so good!

today i had a few hours off and i just walked around my neighborhood. first i started off at "french roast" this adorable french cafe style restaurant and i got yummy breakfast quesadillas and coffee. the weather today was so perfect i wanted to cry. i felt good about figuring out the city and i got to all the places i needed to. it's so insane to have EVERYTHING i could ever want in walking distance! i walked to urban, sephora, little boutiques, barneys (so inspiring), ricky's, i walked through a craft fair next to central park, i got pinkberry (yum yum yum yum finally!!!), i loaded up on my aveda needs. it's nice to be alone. and it's nice to be with friends!

hanging out with orla last night was so unexpected and turned out great! i have such a good feeling about being here. she showed me around the lower east side and east village and i feel like i'm in love when i walk down the streets. they are brimming with such life! the bars we went to were right on spot. talked to some of the nicest people in the world. oh i bought perfect boots yesterday too! and ate at some cute igloo feel thai place with huge $5 sake cocktails! all in all a total success :).

it feels soooo amazing to have separated myself from all the negative energies my life used to hold. my heart still aches all the time though, but i know that's normal. i feel like i'm learning so much. even the cab drivers and doormen have such interesting stories. new york is so unbeatably cool!

PS i can't wait to go to tortola!!!!!!!!
