Who here likes to get what they want? I think we can all come to an agreement that it is rather convenient when everything works out in our favor. I have been doing a lot of thinking about my future and what I want from this life - I have also come to realize my biggest goals I had set for myself way back in middle school are actually a reality for me at this moment.

How did this happen? ...Well, I am a list-maker. I cannot go a day without making a list or several. I decided almost nine years ago (woah, now I feel old), that "when I grew up" I wanted to live in an Ikea-furnished studio apartment in NYC and be a Broadway star. ---------- Okay, so now I see I do not want to live alone in a studio  (I love my crazy, silly roommates), and I may have changed career paths, and I might not have realized how complicated it is to put together Ikea furniture...BUT, here I am. I live in NYC in an Ikea-furnished apartment with two ridiculously sweet roommates, and I work in the fashion industry. I am finally home.

Life is full of surprises, but if you know how badly you want something and you work hard, it will not come as a surprise once your dreams start unfolding right before your eyes. Of course, I am STILL dreaming - every day. In fact, starting this blog has been a long-time dream of mine. I encourage you all to share your dreams, make lists, cross items OFF your list, work hard, read books, stay sharp and treat your body with all of the love it deserves.
