A New Dawn

Not everything is going to go your way. Sometimes you feel like something is a sure thing, meant to be, and then it falls apart in your hands despite your best efforts. Sometimes you meet the woman of your dreams, go to radical lengths to make it work (ie. move 1100 miles to a new city to be closer), and find yourself single within a week. Sometimes you move into a room off of Craigslist, only to find out that the other people in the house are psychopaths with no discernible sleep schedule.

All you can do is suck it up and keep moving forward. Realize that nothing is permanent, and you've already made it through dozens of bad situations before this. There's always tomorrow, and if there's not, then at least you don't have to worry about it anymore.

It's time to move on. Accepting the things I cannot change, and working towards my goals. I've started the process of applying for the July start at the New York Film Academy, found a new job as a security guard in Manhattan, and have begun convincing myself that being single in New York City definitely has it's advantages.

Here's to new beginnings. Cheers.

New Direction

Well, seeing as I no longer have a boat. I guess this blog can no longer be about my sailing experiences. So, instead. It will now be a chronicle of my experiences as I assimilate to New York City. Stay tuned for updates.
