Apartment!

Four hours before our flight back to Houston, Matt and I found an apartment! When we signed the lease, I felt the anxiety/stress lift from my body. It is a $1300 one bedroom apartment in Astoria, Queens. We love the neighborhood, and it is very close to Manhattan.

I feel so fortunate to have such a supportive boyfriend. Sometimes I take it for granted, but it is not often to find someone who supports you and your dreams. We both know this is going to be an adjustment to our comfortable living we have established in Houston; however, to do great things in life, you have to take risk.

I am not exactly sure what the future holds, but I can only hope that this move will be the launch I need - both professionally and personally.

When will it end...

I probably should not be writing a blog, but I feel the need to vent out my frustrations. This week will be a tough one - on Thursday, I take my first section of the CPA exam. Unfortunately, I feel so unprepared (even after studying for nearly 1 1/2 months). We (Matt and I) will also be in NYC for the weekend looking for a place to live. I am worried that we will not find one. My glasses broke while I was studying for the exam; and quite honestly, I have no idea how it happened.

I can't help but ask myself:

WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING?
