Hi

17 more days till beautiful Hawaii Nei. :) I'm so excited that I haven't gotten more than 6 straight hours of sleep at night. Literally I've been having dreams about Hawaii every night for the past week. It's crazy. But I'm still very very excited.

NYC in December.. leads to very mixed emotions for me. The days go by so fast. I wake up pull myself out of my comfortable bed and grab a coffee.. then I swear I go back to bed. It's kind of crazy, but I like it because it just means a day closer to home.

Money money money- money runs this city it's so crazy! I try my best not to stress about it, but it causes me so much stress. The first couple months I was very "chang" about my money.. but I realize now that there are some splurges that I just have to do to keep my sanity. For example: it's very important that I dance.. my 4 classes every week. It's very important that I at least try to go to 1-2 yoga classes per week.  It's important that I eat. All the rest are luxuries that I realize I don't need.. although.. they are fun.

My relationship with NYC as usual is bittersweet. I love the city again.. for dance.. for the food.. and great times. But I know this time around.. it's not gonna be forever. There are certain parts that I absolutely love about this city, that will be hard to give up. I'm gonna miss the opportunity to have so many things right at your fingertips.  But I've had a lot to think about, and I just don't want to be in a city where money runs everything.  People are just constantly stressing out about everything, and complaining so much, that sometimes I just want to yell out relax people! You only have one life so just relax and enjoy it. I stressed so much about money and my job that I just took out so much joy out of my life and I completely forgot that I'm in such an amazing time in my life I have no reason to stress!

So that's the deals. I will always always love NYC and it will be my second home. So I'm considering my options. It's not gonna be Hawaii just yet. I think if I went back home .. I would stay home.. and miss so much of this world that I still want to see.  Lots of things may happen in 2011. :)
