Ky Takes On New York

 Time To Put On Your Big Girl Panties!

   Man, has this week been a never ending emotional roller coaster. A few days ago, the day that I have been waiting for ever since my first day of senior year, the day that I have dreamt about a million times and feigned for had finally arrived --- move in day. I could not wait to hit the road and leave for the city where dreams come true. I was ready to start a new chapter of my life; in a place where I never thought that I would end up. However, I did not know that it would be so difficult to say goodbye to my parents, younger brother, and especially my boyfriend. The night before I departed Maryland, I could not do anything but cry! While watching Friday with my boyfriend, which I normally laugh historical at, was not as funny. I was stuck in this melancholy mood that I could not escape from. Emotions were hitting me left and right and I could not dodge them! On my last night, I wanted to be in a sanguine mood but I terribly failed.
Even though my mother was heart broken about me leaving, she had a blast when she got to decorate my dorm. My room layout back home had a groovy/boho feel and I wanted to try something different  at college. Throughout the summer, I used a polaroid camera to snap shots of concerts I attended,  parties I hosted and days where I would just lounge around. I love the lights attached to them. That's probably my favorite decoration that I have. 
My little man, my headache, my hype man and most of all my ball player <3. Of course he tried to act hard and act like it did not hurt him to see me go but deep down I know he misses his big sister! He was the first person, well besides my mom, to contact me and see how I was doing. Even though I could not stand when he was on 10 24/7 when I was home, I cannot lie I do miss it JUST a little bit.
Words cannot explain how much I miss Phonzo. We met at the end of May and have only been together for a few months but it feels like I've known him all my life! It's crazy how close we became in such a short period of time. I'm pretty confident that he will be around for a long time :)
I've always tried my hardest to make my parents proud and move-in day was proof that I achieved that. They have always motivated and pushed me to always excel and go above and beyond in anything that I do. Witnessing their success has motivated me to make sure I work even harder throughout these next four years to achieve the goals I have set for myself.

First night out with some of my roomies :) 
My first week of college went extremely well. All of my professors are very passionate about their professions and I enjoyed hearing their stories about how their careers have went so far. I can tell that I will learn a lot from each and everyone of them, both academically and personally that will benefit me later in life. I have already been searching for internships around the city and on the internet. I plan on wasting no time here in NYC. I came here to conquer and fulfill my dreams and I plan to do so. I know it's cliche to say but Ky is on her "road to success".
