STRESS

This past week was my last spring break ever. I spent it sick and throwing up every day. Seriously?!? Tomorrow starts the last 8 weeks of college EVER and I am so thankful for that, but my nerves are about to get the best of me. Moving to NYC has been my dream forever and it's finally coming to fruition; just not how I want it to. I don't want to live in a stupid dormitory with a bunch of hormonal girls. It was miserable last time and this time I'm pretty sure it won't be much different. Grrr I don't understand why I just can't rent an apartment of my own. I just don't. That was me venting :)

What happens in Hoboken...

Stays in Hoboken!

Just got back from a weekend in Hoboken, NJ to hang with Kathleen. I went on "the best weekend" because Saturday was the city's St. Patrick's Day celebration. Wild does not even begin to describe the day. There is a main street called Washington where all of the action was going on. The bars opened at 9 am and lines were formed around the blocks! Insanity. We woke up, went to this amazing bagel place (Bagels on the Hudson), and stuff ourselves with carbs to get ready for the busy day ahead. The bagels were GREEN and sooo good! If you haven't experienced a true bagel, you are missing out. The girls and I proceeded back to the apartment to eat and get ready because our first party guests were coming at 10. Let the drinking begin. Yes, I started drinking at 10 am and will never, ever do it again. Drinks flowed and (weird) people came, so the party was a great success lol. I just went with it. The parade was amazing because we my friends and I "were the MF parade!" and just jumped in with them. At some point I crashed for a little nap and then started back up again until 11pm. Long night, great midnight pizza, bad decisions, even worse hangover in the morning. Like I said, never, ever again.

On a more positive, and forward-thinking note, I went to visit my future place of employment Friday afternoon to get some papers signed. I opened the door and the president recognized me right away. I was well received and I loved it because my biggest worry was that they would forget about me. She signed the papers and then introduced me to everyone in the office that day. To one of the interns she said, "This is Krysta. She will not be here before you leave but she is our superstar intern." Superstar Intern?!? Best compliment ever and I haven't even started, so I have a lot to live up to. As I was leaving, boss lady was like "I really need you here. Can you come two weekends from now and help with a Bat Mitzvah and their signature Wedding Salon show. This Mitzvah isn't any mitzvah... oh no. The Pussy Cat Dolls are performing! AGHHH! Hello, count me in. Any excuse I can have to get out of school works for me, I just hope she will pay for my plane ticket because I am not Miss Money Bags.

It's been way too long since my last post, but that is not to say that I haven't had a lot on my mind. Lately I have been reminded in subtle ways that I am truly blessed and that God provides in every situation. That is such a comforting thought to know that I will always have Him on my team, even though I face opposition.
Everything is chugging along and there are eight weeks left until graduation. To say I can't wait is an understatement. There is a countdown in my planner and a time-line for things to get done. Calls are made to NY daily in anticipation and Craigslist is being used in heavy rotation. I even got a box and have started "packing" lol. Jillian got through to the final round of interviews for Teach for America so she is silently freaking out, but it's really exciting :) We are going to be big girls now!
NYC is calling my name and I'm ready to answer!
