hello new york!

in a couple of days, i'm going to be officially an ex-californian. hehehe.

i've always imagined what life would be like in new york city. i've been there more than twenty times in the past eight years or so, but it never really crossed my mind that i would be working and living in what some as the greatest city on earth. there were moments though, when i would pause and think if i could survive the fast-paced life that the big apple has to offer.

until around may this year when the offer fell on my lap. like manna from heaven. i thought about it long and hard, and with a bit of trepidation, i agreed.

come tuesday, i will be embarking on an adventure of a lifetime.

it will begin with the drive, the really long drive. i had an option to fly but the opportunity presented itself. a van will bring my stuff (tons of it, accumulated through the years) to new york. the drive will literally be coast to coast, cross-country: the great american road trip! suffice to say, i am quite excited.

Well, that makes you 3 hours flying time closer to me then! =D

Good luck on the new endeavour!

By the way, are you going to Baguio next year for the Centennial Grand Alumni Homecoming?
