I knew I was always going to live in New York. I just wasn't quite sure how I was going to get there. All it took was another trip through the kitchen at Acadia to realize how easy it was. 2 months later, 2 days shy of 2007, I was in the city. My first job? A teaching job on the 68th floor of the Empire State Building. Acceptance into the New York City Teaching Fellows solidified it: I won't pretend that it wasn't one of the most challenging experiences of my life. Live it and love it...it's the New York way of life.

New York City
I knew I was always going to live in New York. I just wasn't quite sure how I was going to get there. All it took was another trip through the kitchen at Acadia to realize how easy it was. 2 months later, 2 days shy of 2007, I was in the city. My first job? A teaching job on the 68th floor of the Empire State Building. Acceptance into the New York City Teaching Fellows solidified it: I won't pretend that it wasn't one of the most challenging experiences of my life. Live it and love it...it's the New York way of life.

After 4 exciting, yet exhausting years in the Big Apple, and having amassed enough debt for the sake of fun over the last 10 years, I ventured to the land of Kimchi for a year with a goal to get things back into equilibrium. I dare say that the initial indifference I had in coming has been offset by all of the cool experiences I've had while here. It's a working culture, for sure, but I still have had enough fun to balance it all out.
