im on a quest to figure out what it takes to make it. what does it take to create something so amazing, grand and mind-blowing that everyone wants to see/hear/read/have it? THATS what i need to do. create something. i have my writing..thats a start..(crickets). i have time now too, thanks to funemployment. i have about 200 starbucks' in Manhattan alone. what more could a girl need to fuel the start of something magnificent? focus. discipline. a great chain of thought. yes- the last one. thats it, thats the one im lacking- or maybe have too much of...? living in a city like this, you're consistently being stimulated and sparked by your surroundings but not every idea is worth running wild with. i want to write on so many different topics, picking one, let alone picking a name for a new blog or book, is hard enough. so where to take all these ideas?
TBD...

PR Fashion Assistant Editorial Fashion Assistant
I've quit my PR position and am on the long, semi-torturous-yet-very-fulfilling-and-character-defining, road to making my next career move. nothing like a good shaking up and start-over to get your pencil sharpened (wtf?). am i crazy? quite possibly. have i lost it? uh, at times. but here i go, and you know...it feels good. every time i manage to get back up after falling, and brush my shoulders off, i feel like im slowly conquering yet again. sure it might look like im penniless, poor, jobless, whathaveyou, but am i REALLY? im not broken, im resilient in my search and i truly, truly, truly believe this is the path i'm meant to be on. besides, practice makes perfect and with all the practice i'm having in building, re-building, interviewing and job hunting i'm setting myself up for a VERY positive outcome. i am teaching myself how to start over, how to follow my voice and my dreams fearlessly (not wrecklessly).
not easy leaving something stable, a stable paycheck especially, but thats what it takes. it takes a leap of faith (so cliche, i know) and a lot of patience in seeking out what you really desire. my father says we're all born into this world with a purpose, and mine is here in New York City. i just have to find it.
