It's been a while since my last post so I thought it was about time to correct that.
Just less than two weeks ago, I returned from a vacation in New York. It was definitely one of the best experiences of my life, just feeling the rush of the City That Never Sleeps.
Since I've returned it's led to much thinking about what I'd like to do with my future (Yes people, I'm nearly as undecided want I want to with my life now, as I was when I left school)
To give this some perspective, from a certain angle in my house, on a good day I can see about 6 or 7 miles East and about 13 miles West. I equate this to looking where I've been and where I want to go. To the East, where the sun rises. Where everything has gone before. Relationships, friendships, growing up. Good times and bad times.
Then I look to the West. The land of the setting sun. The direction of my favourite place on Earth (If you guessed New York, give yourself a pat on the back) The direction in which many of the people I converse with on a daily basis live. (God bless Twitter). Maybe I need to look into taking the leap and take myself over there on a permanent basis. After all, to the West is all manner of places I still want to visit and re-visit. Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, the list goes on and on.
But to close, I think, and I hope my future lies in a place so good, they named it twice. Good ol' NYC. It's where I've set the location for my ongoing novel, and hopefully it's the place that one day I'll call home.
To the future and all the excitement that goes along with it
