| | hello xanga world!
has it really been almost four months since my last post?
my goodness we have some catching up to do!
after a bit of reluctance i am excited to welcome my favorite season of autumn. i think my summer went by so fast that i didn't want to see it go, even though it was a summer full of sun, fun, new places and experiences.
i went to the beach and swam in the ocean for the first time.
i spent many a hot afternoon laying by a pool.
i "did" vegas and had one of the most fun nights of my life thus far.
yes, it was a good summer 
this new day finds me anticipating the "final" move. after living with a friend's parents for the past 4 months, i'm happy to report i will be moving into a house with 3 roommates! we all have weird schedules so it will happen gradually, but i will make one more trek halfway across the country and this time i will bring my furniture and belongings with me! yes i can finally sleep in my own bed again, and have all my clothes in one place, and settle in to a room and a space all my own! can you tell i'm excited?!
i'm mostly excited about the fact i'll be living in such a great city. say what you will, b/c i realize a lot of people hate it, but i LOVE Philadelphia. i also LOVE living on the east coast. actually i pretty much just LOVE life right now!
it took a few months but i finally adjusted to the craziness of my job and the industry i work in. there was one day that i suddenly felt like i had woken up from a haze and started to feel like myself again. i became extremely motivated in my work, and in my personal life. my creativity and inspiration has returned, and i am able to face each day with much more excitement and a lot less dread. i don't mean to make it seem like things were terrible, i've never doubted at any time that i am where i am supposed to be. but it was like i had become a zombie with little awareness of myself and the life around me.
i'm so thankful this transition period is coming to a final close.
moving my stuff out here is very final, quite exhilarating, and completely terrifying. it kind of sets into motion my plans and goals for the next few years b/c i don't want to be making a move like this again for a while. as i reflect on everything i'm kind of amazed that this is all really happening. the talking is over, the doing is nearly done, and a few of my bigger dreams are actually coming to fruition.
i guess its time to come up some new dreams and keep on making things happen....
