New York to Florida

After living in New York, New York for a little over a year, I moved back to Florida. Now I'm temporarily living with my parents while searching for work.

The Power of Numbers

I've been here in New York, New York, for a month, and it definitely has been fun and interesting.

In other news, yesterday was a big day for Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. I believe the end of a TIME article concisely summarizes election results thus far: "So Clinton lives to run for another seven weeks. But if you believe in the power of numbers, the candidate of inevitability is Barack Obama."

A Penny in my Pocket

Sometimes I read about how now-famous people moved to a big city (before they became famous) with only a small amount of money in their pocket. Well, I'd like history to remember me as going to New York City with only a penny in my pocket. I have more than a penny, but it makes the story more interesting.

Giants versus Patriots

The New York Giants will play the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. I hope the Giants win. But I expect the Patriots will win.

1 Month

The Peace Corps changed my life. I learned a lot because I thought more and wrote more than ever before. I wish more of life could be like that. But I'm not there anymore. Life goes on.

I take in music, movies, television - other people's creations - and some of it influences me and inspires me. Some of the people who made it are dead, but their work lives on. In that way they left something behind, and I'm thankful they did because it helps make me who I am. I dream of expressing my creativity through music, movies, writing, art, etc. And I'd love to be able to make a living from that. I could try to do that here around Orlando, but I think it'd be better to go to a larger city with more opportunities. So I'd like to try living in New York. I've visited there in the past and liked it, but I've never lived there. I bought a plane ticket, so I'll be there in a month. It should be interesting.
