My birthday is just around the corner and I'll be yet another year older. I always like to reflect back on the last year and think about what the next year will be. And perhaps where I'll be at my next birthday. They say your life changes cycles or something big happens every 7 years. 7 years ago I moved from NYC to Phila and last year I moved to LA. 6 years ago I thought I had the love of my life and now I'm still looking for him. For the last 33 years I had my mom, and now I don't. So in a weird way it feels like this next year could lead me to things--new things, in my new city. Not sure if I'm following the every 7 year cycle or some other cycle fate has me on, but I'm optimistic. I'm gonna hope big for this next year, and think that 2011 is my year.
And in the meantime, I'm gonna keep my eyes open and keep enjoying my new city. Like free concerts at the Santa Monica Pier/on the beach every Thursday--gotta love that. Lazy afternoons on the beach. And finding new restaurants that are better than the last. And dating--lots of dating. And in between all that, I'm confident something will turn up that will earn me some money so I can keep living this life.
So, cheers. Here's to my last week of 33. It was FULL of change, good and bad, and I'm ready to move on.
