~ my dad helped me unload my car, i held various boxes stacked. we had to use the elevator to go up 8
stories each time. my apartment was on the 8th floor, and it had a beautiful outlook of manhattan. we set up my whole penthouse, furniture at least. i could do the rest myself.
i was stoked to be finally out of college, and to have my own job.
i got offered a job at a therapy office in manhattan, new york. i graduated at the top of my class at berkeley. that must have caught they offices attention.
i will be starting out doing relationship counseling/therapy. this will be interesting to hear couples issues, and grudges they hold. that is obviously not why i wanted to be a therapist, although it is very interesting.
my job was in mid-town manhattan, but my job payed for my housing since it was high demand for therapists. they treated me to a luxurious upper east side sky penthouse. the drive from the upper east side to mid-town was nothing.
i brought my jeep with me, which was a pain to park in the street. it feels like i brought a piece of home with me.
zach and i broke up recently, we made it somehow throughout college doing long distance. i felt like our relationship was going no where without seeing eachother. he was super busy with baseball, and i had to study.
i broke it off with him a couple weeks ago. i knew i had to because i was moving further away.
i have forgotten about sam a long time ago, it was just a summer fling.
tomorrow is my first day at work, and i was super excited. although the my jobs dress code is more professional, i decided i needed more business clothes.
luckily on madison avenue there were lines of designer stores that met my criteria.
before i went shopping, i had to drive my dad to the airport.
i said goodbye to him, and told him to call soon.

i drove to madison avenue, and somehow managed to find a parking spot.
i got out of my jeep, and walked into a french boutique.
i spotted the cutest blouses. i bought many of them. i bought some cardigans too.
they also had cute jeans that would probably be acceptable to wear. they had no rips which was good, and they had cute frayed bottoms. i had to buy them.
i got some new necklaces, and other jewelry.
i got dresses that were conservative, yet very flattering. i had some heels at home, but i also bought some golden gooses.
i walked into a lingerie store, and treated myself. i mean what if i run into a hot new yorker?
i bought some more cute long cardigans, and sweaters.
you can't go wrong with sweaters. especially since i will be dealing with people in real relationships, i can dress more casual.
i had spent a little too much money, but it was fine.
usually it gets cold here in manhattan, so i bought some more preppy winter attire. a adorable trench coat, and a north face puffer jacket.
i think i was set, at least for now ;).
i placed my bags into my jeep, and drove back to my penthouse.
holding a lot of bags was a struggle, but it was worth making it one trip.
i kicked off my shoes, and sat on my couch on my phone for a bit. then i went and arranged my room around. it was aesthetic and cute.
it was getting kind of late, so i postmated some greek food. i ate happily, and set my silk pajama set out on my bed for after my shower.
i took a long shower. i thoroughly washed my hair, conditioned it, shaved and exfoliated, and used my new sugar scrub.
i got out and washed my face, and did my skincare for the night. i took my hair down, and did a hair mask to assure i would have nice hair tomorrow.
i did under eye jellies, and watched murder mysteries on netflix while i laid in bed. i felt so good to have my own place, and be a independent working woman.
i checked my dms on instagram and laughed at the pickup lines guys had sent me. i responded to a few, and deleted a few.
i talked on the phone with my new boss, and she is very sweet. she is around my age or maybe older. she was super chill about it. i had asked her about the dress code earlier in the day. she said i could just wear a sweater and jeans.
say less.
i got up and took off my under eye bag jellies, and picked out my outfit for tomorrow. i have to wake up at 5am tomorrow for my presentation at 6:30 and then i have my first clients at 7. i have work from 6-5pm. long day, but i get frequent breaks in between sessions.
i picked out a tan sweater, black jeans with my gucci belt and booties.
i laid out the necklaces i was going to layer, earrings, and my ring.
i went out and started eating the fruit i bought at trader joes earlier. i ate my strawberries in peace, and read through the latest news.
i looked on instagram, and found a really cute boutique. i HAD to buy some more clothes. i will have another life other than work, maybe go out to bars, meet new guys. who knows where this is going to take me.
i stared out of the huge glass wall and admired the beautiful city. the lights were so beautiful.
i also started looking at puppies, i mean why not. it might get lonely here. i think i want a german shepherd. they do require a lot of training, but a good dog for protection. especially since i am living alone.
i washed the dish i used, and headed to bed for the night.
