I had only ever dreamt of this place. I had only imagined such a utopia. I had only planned my whole life around living, existing, and staying in one environment from the time I was 12. I had only ever truly desired one thing: to live in New York. 

So when I find out that my plan is working out, it's really no big deal, right? Every one has things like this happen to them. Lots of people wish for things and they come true.

No, this isn't a big deal. It's a massive deal. In my eyes, this is an event of revolutionary proportions. 

My whole life, I've lived in California. Born and raised a "California Girl". But I've always known that I didn't belong there. I didn't belong in the "perfect society" that is California. Because it's the complete opposite of perfect in my eyes. I had lived in Northern California until 4th grade, and then I moved to Southern California. I hate Southern California.Don't even get me started on the weather there. My god, I hate it. It's all "California sunshine" and I hate it. I love weather that's gloomy, rainy, windy, grey, snowy, or just cold in general. Don't go to California if you have the same taste in weather as I do. And the people. Most everyone there is an artificial, judgemental wannabe, and I never "wannabe" involved with them again. But don't get me wrong, California's a great place, it's just not for me. Dealing with bitchy middle school drama and kids is completely different from your life in California as an independent individual. But anyways, you get the picture. I hate California. 

Somewhere along the way, between about 6th and 7th grade, I met Kat. She is my best friend to this day. She's super upbeat and fun. She always makes me smile. She's super sweet and supportive. She's also all multi-talented. Her writing skills are more than badass, and she can dance like nobody's business. No literally, she's been dancing since she could walk. Not to mention the fact that she's drop dead gorgeous. With her looks alone, she could get any guy she wanted. With her personality, she could light up a room in seconds. So yeah, she's pretty freaking awesome.

Kat and I both applied to NYU in our junior years of highschool. When we both got accepted I knew immediately that I was going. I was ecstatic when I found out that Kat had chosen to go. Then, after probably months of discussion and such, we made the decision to get an apartment and be roomates. Best decision ever. We've been here for about 2 months, and things are going great. We're almost finished moving in, and classes at NYU are going great. My whole life plan has been rocky along the way, but the main desire, what I really wanted to get in the end is finally in my grasp. And I never want to let go.

So this leads me to where I am right now, and how my new plan gets completely changed because of one guy.
