Alright, now you can ask me about New York. Do you want to know why I have decided to gravitate my love towards New York? I always thought deep inside, I’m a city girl of note and the only city to be in is New York. I mean, seriously. I have followed all the blogs, I know all the songs and of course… I’ve seen all the travel brochures. But here is the issue:
I know for a fact that when most of us dream of going to certain places we can see a life there-even if it’s going to the shops for a bag of oranges or a can of beans. I definitely don’t find myself being a tourist in the big city. Holding a back-pack with a camera the size of my chest, my Chinese tourist collegues are making ‘oohs’ and ‘ahs’.
No! How about I just go there and live for a good 5 years. In a huge apartment. I’d like a coffee machine and a toaster. Then I can be like one of those women in the movies; walking outside on their way to the office holding a coffee cup and screaming on their cell phones, “no, not that one. I told you to use the yellow fabric”.
Of course this life I plan on living is not as good the candy stores look. But everyone who has been to the big city tells me that its everything you see in the movies.
