Officially over

I’ve been moved in for a whole month now, and I don't know exactly how I feel about it. Especially since I'm only in my third week of classes. It's freaky that now on top of all my RA work I have to be a student. Like I knew that, but c'mon. Homework? I'm already doing my best to be on top of everything. I'm sure my fellow classmates here at FIT understand, unless you're an art student... then you definitely have more work than me and I salute you. 

I've heavily enjoyed my first month in my single dorm. Every day has been an adjustment—commuting to campus, cooking my own meals, living alone, having my own space, and keeping it all clean. Not to brag about my room, but...

Anyway, here I am, sitting on my plush carpet, hunched over my laptop, contemplating time. I’ve been here a whole month already! People say, "Time flies when you're having fun," and some believe it slows down when you're experiencing new things, but I feel like it just keeps speeding up—and that's spooky.

Today, I grabbed a matcha from 21st and 5th (I’m a matcha girl now!) and walked all the way back to my dorm on 31st. I took my time, soaking in the neighborhoods and watching people go about their day. My feet were killing me, but it was totally worth it. Before I knew it, I was back at my dorm, and my matcha was gone. I had to do homework beverage-less. 

This is to say take your time, slow down. (I think)

And enjoy your day.

XO, Mia
