a year and 3 months later...

well - it's been a whole year and 3 months since i've moved to new york city... amazing how time flies, yet i feel as though i have accomplished nothing, and perhaps made a couple of steps backwards...

i know it isn't true, as i have done a lot of travelling since I've been here, which was one of my main goals... in summary:

10, 2004 Los Angeles
11, 2004 NYC (Delaware, Boston & Connecticut for work)
12, 2004 San Francisco & Los Gatos
01, 2005 Nassau, Bahamas
03, 2005 Washington DC
04, 2005 Houston, Texas
05, 2005 Florida (Orlando & Miami)
06, 2005 England (London & day trips to many cities close by)
07, 2005 Las Vegas, Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park, Hoover Dam
08, 2005 New York State (Kaaterskill, Howe's Caverns)
09, 2005 Niagara Falls & Toronto, Canada
10, 2005 Southern Caribbean Cruise (Puerto Rico, St Thomas, Dominica, Barbados, Aruba)
12, 2005 HK, Malaysia, Singapore

That's not too shabby i guess...! but imagine if I lived in Europe, how much more impressive that list could be! hehe..

what else did i come here to accomplish? to become more independent... i can't say i've progressed very far with that though. i guess i have been forced into a situation where i am more independent than when i was living at home - yet not necessarily in a way that i expected to be. i mean, i live with roommates now, i have maid service, i order in and eat out every day, and i am still so emotionally dependent on those around me.. i definitely haven't progressed very far at all.

at the moment, i feel as though i need to be single for a while. and take the time to do and learn all the things that i don't find the time to do when i am in a relationship. i really want to take cooking classes, flower arrangement classes, bartending courses...etc. i've started going to classes at the gym, which is something i've also wanted to do - but i've only been to the club strength and total body conditioning classes... i still want to go to the belly dancing, yoga, pilates classes...

heya. you've also accomplished a lot in the workplace. i guess the most important thing to learn now is in being more independant, w/o feeling lonely.

you should take pole-dancing classes. i heard its like the new tae-bo. everyone in the class has a pole and does stuff on it!
