My Manhattan

Like most, New York is one of my dream cities. To be exact, it's Manhattan that's got me. Add those skyscrapers, car honks, malls, and Central Park. Then the people who are always walking with a purpose. Briskly walking like whatever work's awaiting them is very important, no time shall be wasted. And of course, fashion. It seems like no one's ever overdressed as long as you can carry it.

That place was like some years away from me. I know I'll be there someday but when? It was never clear. Until the need to find an internship hit me, I found my temporary Manhattan.

Makati is like what NYC could be. The buildings and the  busy people. The subways and the Ayala Triangle. The malls and clothes. It has the blueprint of the Big Apple. And for the first time in my life in a new city, I feel like I belong.

" The city was no longer a fantasy, it was real. And I knew now I wasn't searching for someone or somebody here. I was searching for me. Who I was. Who I wanted to be. Finding my voice wasn't going to be easy. But for the first time, in a long time, I thought it might be fun."

Hello

I used to tell myself I'll  begin really living my life at twenty. Well, I'm finally on that age.

So, no more stalling, procrastinating or whatever. It's time to make something out of myself and take things seriously. I'm a big girl now :)
