Finally NYC = NYC

Last March I wrote "The City of Kings, The Queen of Drama", a short entry in my blog about how I had never had a "regular" trip to New York, about how for me NYC = Drama. Hidden in those few lines was my anxiety about the trip, about everything I wanted to say, about my past and about my future.

Even though it felt like on the eve of this trip the worlds were conspiring against me and I seemed destined to the same fate as the trips of the past...I finally did it. I didn't cry, I didn't feel alone, I didn't need to buy an insane amount of shoes to keep me busy, I just got to enjoy the city and make new memories with the people I love.

To be honest, I surprised myself last week, I thought I would be a wreck for my own reasons and then got thrown a curveball on Tuesday. I'm proud of myself, its rare that I get a chance to really benchmark my growth and I wasn't sure I'd ever actually get to this point. But I made it and finally New York is just New York again.
