I'm currently at a trade show for the beauty industry and I won't lie---I'm bored!!! I can only go into the esthetics show, not the hair show. So I'm jammin listening to Kanye and taking in the view from Jacob Javits- appreciating the fact that I'm in NY at all- even if I am with the boss lady. She's not so bad sometimes. We talked this morning about me going say to school and I almost got a little choked up. The truth is that sometimes as much as I resent my job- I can't imagine my life without it.
The last three years I have invested so much of myself into that salon. I am everywhere in there and I think when I leave I'll miss certain aspects of it. Especially my staff. For the most part, they were hand picked by boss lady and I... They're my friends and my confidants. How weird is it gonna be when they don't wake
Me up on my days off?!
But then I'm sitting here taking in the view and I know where I want to be. Even if it's not permanent... I need to prove to myself that I can do this. I know independence is going to suit me just fine- I can practically taste it. I just want my chance to make it on my own.

Laurence is a girl's name in French...
- Laurence
- Howell, New Jersey
- I'm twenty-one, full of aspirations and dreams. I'm planning on a transfer of school comes 2010 and this is the story of what it takes to prepare yourself mentally, financially, emotionally, and even physically to move to THE CITY. I have an interesting immigration situation, a terrible work environment (which I'm trying to change), I am relationship and commitment challenged, and I specialize in shopping. I'm extremely sarcastic, but I'm outgoing and I love people of all walks of life, which is why I'm planning on moving to Williamsburg, BK!
