On Living Downtown

So I have moved. From the North end to here - downtown baby! The sunset welcomed me here on a Saturday afternoon and the city lights from the 21st floor is simply amazing. It somehow feels surreal that I am living the future I have daydream about right after university years, wait I think earlier - after high school maybe. The daydream is that I will live by myself independent of my parents. After 27 years, I am here living it. I am both cold feet and confident at the start of this season. Spring brings a lot of opportunities to grow, literally and figuratively. In the next few weeks the lawns will turn green again, and so are the trees, the squirrels will be out munching nuts again at the street nearest their tree house. I vow to enjoy every minute of this independent living. Will take care of things of my own without missing the fun this city has to offer, be it sitting at the patio basking at the warmth of the sunset, or barbecuing in summer while entertaining new acquaintances or be it chatting with people half-way around the world in the comfort of my own home (not now but soon) or by just walking around the block finding the nearest shop where wi-fi is free (though I hear a lot of precautions about living down here, I think I've seen worse situations. I can make it here alive and kicking!)

And for now my time is up here at the Fyxx. Better get going and prep for work. 'til our next coffee date! Next installment might be about getting myself psyched to sleep with all lights off on the third night.
