trying a new toothpaste and loving it and brushing your teeth 3 times as long as usual until your gums bleed all over (not because of the new toothpaste, it is normal) and this time for me it's a Burt's Bees toothpaste in the flavor Mountain Mint (so i can feel like i am brushing my teeth in a little cabin in the wilderness of Colorado, a place i have always dreamed to go!) which tastes really sweet and has a nice thick foam :-)

Pink paste in gorgeous packaging that packs a 125-year-old PUNCH. It's the mintiest stuff I can find. I also love how my Irish parents pronounce it "U-tie-mil".

My addition is the Empire Garden Restaurant in Chinatown. Built into an old vaudeville theater, the food is solid but the atmosphere is absurd and a must see.

You trusted someone with your money or your heart or both, and then that person surprises you by fucking you over. fuck!
This sucks a lot and might mess you up pretty bad and make you lose faith in people, but on the other side there is the potential for new found strength as you now have *experience*.
Trusting people is such an essential thing, so after getting scammed when you eventually find ways to trust people again, you’ll do it with a better sense of who to give it to and how much to give and when. That’s a powerful thing, and not easy to understand until you’ve been burned.
Keep trusting, keep getting burned, but hopefully a little less so each time.

🏠 decent living situation — awful roommates, deadbeat landlords, or psycho neighbors will make you super miserable so try to get this one locked down!
🫂 homies — making new friends can take a long time, but if you commit to putting yourself out there over and over you’ll connect with some truly inspiring and amazing people
🤑 income (even a little) — yes you can get by on dumplings, no Ubers, no bars, etc. but being broke here feels particularly like a prison because most things are stupid expensive. Be on your grind and then blissfully spend it all away
If you end up getting all 3 of these you’re probably gonna be hopelessly addicted to being here just like me. Welcome to NYC :)
