moving to new york! & living alone for the first time... ㅠㅠ

[music]

Okay, so I definitely need, like, a moment

to process everything because I haven't

had a whole lot of time to do that.

I was so busy moving out, packing up,

finishing up my finals, saying all my

goodbyes.
I'm also on like two hours of

sleep right now and I really need to get

something to eat.
So I think I'm going to

unpack a little bit, throw my sheets in

the wash and get something to eat.

(I'm) Definitely going to try not to take

any naps because I want to get adjusted to

the time difference as soon as I can.

[laughter]

One of the reasons why I decided to come

to New York for the summer, not only for

my internship, was because I potentially

want to move here in the future, and so I

feel like this is kind of a good

opportunity for me to do a trial run and

see if I will actually like living and

working here.
I'm super excited to share

this journey with you guys!

Alright, so I'm finally back home.

I'm looking real rough right now, but I

got some food in me.

Honestly, the bagel was mid.

I think it's because I went to, like a

tourist-y place.

And I also got my sheets washed.

It was my first time going to like, a coin

laundromat, and I didn't know how to use

any of the machines, so.

The employees were really nice, and after

my sheets were done drying, um, I was like

trying to take it out of the dryer, but

then there was this lady who was next to

me and as I was taking it out she like,

started to grab the blanket from me.
And I

was like "?"

I don't think she spoke English, but then

she went like this [swatting] to me.
And

then I realized she was trying to help me

fold the blanket!
Even though she like,

didn't know me at all.

And so I was like "oh, ok!"
And so we

just like folded all the blankets
together

She seemed like a mom because she was

folding like, kid's clothes, and

that was really nice!

So I just took a very much-needed shower,

and I'm feeling much more refreshed.

[sigh of relief] I'm gonna do a face mask

because my skin is so dry from the flight.

(I'm) Surprisingly still like, not super

tired yet, or it hasn't like, really hit

me.
Honestly, I don't even know how I am

still functioning right now.
I think I have just been like purely

running off of adrenaline for the past

couple of hours.

Honestly though, I feel like all face

masks kinda feel the same.

So I ordered some cleaning supplies and a

clothing rack off of Target because this

room actually doesn't have a closet.

[in meeting] Hi Abby! Good morning, how

are you?

[person in meeting] I'm doing good how

are you?

I just got done with my second meeting of

the day.
Today is a pretty meeting-heavy day. Um,

it's all remote, so I'm still at home.

I have two more meetings this afternoon.

One is in an hour, and so I'm gonna eat

lunch because I haven't eaten anything

yet.
I am still in my pajamas right now.

[music]

[friend, Alicen] It was really fun though!
Yes.

[British accent] This is my dinner.

[normal accent] Reminds me of the bean and

cheese burritos I used to eat back in

like, elementary school.
