“the streets will make you feel brand new, big lights will inspire you…let’s hear it for new york, new york, new york…” thanks jay z for singing us there…

i loved the college chapter of my life; everything about it sparks seriously nostalgia for me. if i had to do it again, however, i am not sure if i would choose byu. not that i didn’t have a great experience, not that i didn’t love all of the memories i made, i just think i might have, well, i am not really sure, but i think i might have discovered something else had i left the west and gone way to the east. like, new york.

i see so much of myself in her: drive, motivation, a crazy love of her teachers, passion for her friends, attachments to her family, a crazy interest in literature, art, and writing, and an indescribable need to know what’s out there, what exists beyond the parameters of her current life…
