Too Many Thoughts, Few Means to Release Em

Writing provides an outlet for one who's mind is bombarded with thoughts, ideas, stories, etc. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending how you look at it) I don't have someone to listen to all I have to say, someone to whom I can think aloud so I saw fit to blogging, that way I could keep you (the reader) abreast of what is going on in my mind as I navigate this thing called life in the greatest city on earth, NYC. Yes I know. It's only been 2+ weeks and I've already bought in to the idea that New York is the best city ever. Judge me if you will but if you're of the Caribbean demographic, you know that NYC is too often mentioned synonymously with the US. Yes, the entire United States of America. A bit of a stretch but it happens to be the destination of everyone, from all over the world. So much so that it has become a smorgasbord of ethnicity and often coined as a melting pot of people of various backgrounds and nationalities. Now to address you who's too domesticated to think on the foreign scale, where are many movies and television shows filmed? NYC. For you financiers, the financial capital of the world?  Again, NYC. So to you nay-sayers I urge thee to open your eyes and face the facts. Now that I've proven my case and, should you wish to follow my blogging still, I'll share with you my thoughts and ideas, good times and perhaps some of the bad ones, observations and prayers, and everything else that may come across my mind as I try to make my mark in such a grandiose ville. This city is a beast of its own, far different from anything I've experienced in my 26 years and if I don't tread carefully it'll swallow me whole. I intend to tame this beast to the best of my ability or at the very least live in harmony with it. I'm feeling a bit daring so we'll see what happens. Needless to say I've got the Almighty in my corner so rather than saying the sky is the limit, I'll go a bit further by saying there is no limit! I've said enough--I've got some conquering to do!!!
