The Move is Official!

So when Batboy fell through, I was really upset and decided that I just needed to get out of Orange County. I realized that I am currently not making enough money at Islands to do really anything with. I have been trying to save money with all of my might, but the money I am making is mostly covering gas and food and that is basically it. So, I came to the conclusion that I need to just move to New York because one, it is where I should be for musical theater, and two, I will make much more money out there as a server than I do out here. 

Sooooo the exciting news is that yesterday morning I bought my one way plane ticket from San Diego to JFK for October 2nd at 9:25 pm. I wanted to do a red eye because that way when I arrive on Friday, it will be in the morning and I will have an entire day to get things situated. I also thought arriving on Friday was a good idea because that way I can have a three day weekend to really arrange my living situation, and then on Monday I can start looking for a job. My friend Jessica who I will be living with is moving out to NY tomorrow, and is going to start looking for a place for us to live. I am soooo stoked to live with Jess because she is extremely responsible and a wonderful person. I just can't wait till we find a place so I don't have to worry anymore. I know that Courtney and Brian will have my back if I need to crash on their couch for a few days, but in a perfect world, I would love to be able to get off the plane Friday morning and go to my new apartment! We are thinking that the Morningside/ Upper West Side area is where we want to be. Hopefully it will all work out! I am just very excited to get the ball rolling! It is nice because I only payed $203 for my ticket and then $100 for Olive to come with. Not too bad. Just have to push myself to pull my savings up before I leave. And I don't even want to talk about my credit card. No bueno. Anyway :) 

Everything happens for a reason, and I've decided that Batboy wasn't supposed to happen because I was supposed to move out to NY sooner than later. I am very excited! To be continued...
