It's been a crazy week y'all. I arrived, I conquered and I'm still here.
San Francisco is as chilly as everyone says, so make sure to step your sweater game up if you plan to visit. I did not heed the warnings. I haven't been freezing but I'm the type that would rather sweat than shiver. Is everyone else like that? I take a sweater with me as often as possible, during summer in swampy D.C., so I won't lie, I was suffering in silence when I first landed in windy San Francisco.
Since then, I've adjusted to the weather, among other things. I found a great place to live in Oakland and in a record three days. I guess I was supposed to be suffering and struggling upon arrival but it's been a calm transition thus far. I definitely feel like I've been making the right decisions, but it can be very overwhelming at times. I think I'll cry week two or three, I'm going to try to hold out until four. I'll keep you updated.
My number one enemy at the moment: California hills. My legs have been worked out more in the past week than in the whole ten months I spent in suburban Maryland. It didn't help that those were probably the laziest ten months of my life, but damn, I wish I had been better prepared physically to be a Californian. Everyone runs and is super fit here, so I hope walking these hills will get me on that status. Main goal: to wear a crop top. When do I plan on doing that? I have no idea.
Anyways, welcome to the blog. I'll be posting as often and randomly as possible with updates on life, my stern East Coast opinion on these Westerners and my plans on world domination via writing, smiling, laughing and charming the silly people I meet. I just want to be rich some day without having to sell my body. Love ya if I know ya and love ya if I don't.
