"We’re always thinking that someday we’ll be happy; we’ll get that car or that job or that person in our lives that’ll fix everything. But happiness is a mood, and it’s a condition, not a destination. It’s like being tired or hungry, it’s not permanent. It comes and goes, and that’s okay."

New Life, New Experiences, New York

Oh California...I will miss you so...
...miss cruising in my car, windows down, blasting my music...
...miss having my own space, not having to worry about being considerate....
...miss my family and friends...
...miss the awesome weather and lack of seasons...

Tomorrow morning I will begin the next chapter of my life. I am going to set foot in a new, unfamiliar place where I won't even know how to travel from Point A to Point B. After I move all my belongings into my apartment, I am going to have to meet the strangers I will be living with for the rest of the year. I hope with all my heart that we all end up getting along. From my past experience of rooming in a suite with nine other girls, I know that drama will most likely ensue. I'm extremely nervous about how I am going to befriend people. After high school, making friends became more and more difficult. It's hard for me to open up to people and allow them to get to know me. I've become too paranoid that people will dislike my personality and perceive me in a negative light. One of my best friends, WH, told me recently that I don't have a strong personality, that my personality dies in the group setting. I completely agree with him. I hope that with this new beginning, I will learn how to be more confident in myself. At least I'll have CG in New York with me for this new adventure!

Gonna Miss Me Some California Sun!

I've heard that west coast and east coast weather are polar opposites. Here in California, the weather is pretty much amazing no matter the season. New York City is going to be crazy different! I'm definitely going to miss the open space of suburbia and the city atmosphere is going to be quite the change. Here are a hand full of photos of California I've compiled over the few months.











Summer Outfit - Floral Coral

One of my the outfits I fashioned this summer. I can't believe it's almost autumn!

Floral Coral
Outfit Breakdown:
Top - Forever 21
Bottoms - Express
Accessories - Michael Kors Watch

P.S. I can never find jeans that fit length-wise. I'm usually find with simply rolling up the pant leg. I think it works!

P.S.S. When I bought my watch it was hard for me to say "No!" to the rose gold trend. I ultimately chose the brown because air felt that it was more casual/wearable.
