i was raised on robbery.

woke up, it was a chelsea morning,
and the first thing i knew,
there was milk and toast and honey and a
bowl of oranges too,
and the sun poured in like butterscotch
and stuck to all my senses.
-chelsea morning, joni mitchell.

I have this massive obsession over New York City. There is just something about this city that pulls me in and wont let me go. I guess it does that for a lot of people. If I had my way, I'd move there in a heartbeat. But because I'm Canadian and there's lots of paper work, it's a bit difficult. Maybe not impossible but defiantly not something I can do right now. Hopefully within the next 10 years or so. I know I wont be happy with myself if I never make it there. It's my biggest goal in life. There's just so much history and life involved with that city. Everywhere you go there is someone around, there is a bar open, a pub, a book store, etc. Everything you ever need is at your finger tips. I'm moving to Montreal in a few months and even though I'm very excited about it, it just isn't enough for me. In my yearbook, I wrote "In ten years I'll be living in New York City" That was almost 6 years ago. I still have a few years to go to make that true but it might be hard. But even back when I was in grade 12, I knew I wanted to live there.

Oh one of these days, I guess.
