Sanctity

So while the apartment hunt is still an absolute nightmare I managed to find a job today after an exhaustive search through the East Village at a little Italian/French cafe. I'm not sure if it's the place I'll ultimately end up at but it's a start so that I don't completely eat through my savings. I'm coveting an apartment in Bushwick that I'm still waiting to hear about but it is a small comfort to know that I at the very least have some roots settled. It truly is indicative of what a fast paced city NY is that I managed to find a job after one afternoon of searching despite many, many "No we aren't hiring," responses.

Michael Jackson blares from every corner and the neighborhood I'm staying in has garnered quite a few catcalls from some very aggressive corner dwellers. Things, however, appear to be looking up. I am still interested in a few bars that look quite promising so we shall see what happens. My best friend Dan will be here next weekend so at the very least I'll have a recent fellow Florida transplant who can commiserate with me about the difficulty that is moving to the Big Apple.

My friends have been crazy accommodating however and hopefully soon I'll have a little place to call my own.

Keep your fingers crossed that I find the right fit.

About Me

My Photo
I am a brand new (wannabe) New Yorker trying to reconcile my life of old with my life of new. Much the same way that the pioneers were attempting to forge a life in a new land, I am trying not to fall over in the subway and get hit by a train. All help and/or advice would be greatly appreciated. But probably ignored.
