Happy 3 Month Anniversary!!

June 12, 2013 By Leave a Comment

It’s official….

I’ve lived in San Diego for 3 months!!

I can’t believe it has already been 3 months yet it seems like longer. So much as happened; 2 parking tickets, loss of clients, self-doubt and brutal homesickness. I’ve never been more proud of myself than I am today. I am conquering San Diego one step at a time and I’m anxiously excited for what the summer holds.

Over the last 90 days I’ve been keeping myself busy. Within a week of moving here I was working as a server, volunteering for the zoo, ballet AND building my consulting business. I moved here and jumped head first into my dreams.

After several week (10 weeks) I could navigate with confidence to work, the bank, a friend’s house, the mall and downtown San Diego. I quickly made friends with my co-workers who were a godsend during homesickness bouts. I explored the San Diego Zoo, ate tacos in Pacific Beach, discovered Padres baseball season, experiencing June Gloom. I’ve seen dolphins riding the waves in Mission Beach, gone to Disneyland, saw amazing museums, gardens and survived homesickness.

I’ve had many adventures in my first 3 months here and I’m excited for what lies ahead. This summer holds many adventures between the relaunch of my consulting business, my first Californian summer with some awesome friends, perhaps a summer fling and as always, a chance to grow.

I’m sorry for the quick, photo-less post. I hope to share more regularly about what I’m doing, where I’m going and how I’m getting there.

Cheers!

I've officially been here for 5 weeks. I've fallen into a groove of going to work, then my second job and exploring in my down time. It is completely surreal to not have everything, and everyone, I know within a twenty-minute radius. Each day is challenge and a new adventure; basically everything I … [Read More...]

Since moving to San Diego I've seen my life, and the world around me, with a fresh pair of wide eyes. I'm amazed daily at my surroundings and the person I'm closer to becoming. This new level of self-awareness lead me to discover that I have been actively dating for a decade. While I've had several … [Read More...]

I'm beginning a new weekly meme, Rants and Raves. I'm so unique and creative right? ;) If I'm completely honest with myself I'm terrible at keeping this blog consistent. At least I'm honest right?! I got the idea while at Ralph's earlier this week when I experienced my first rant about San Diego. … [Read More...]

10 Things – Moving to San Diego

March 25, 2013 By Leave a Comment

As I mentioned in my last post, I pulled the trigger to move to San Diego with less than 2 weeks notice. I arrived back in Salt Lake and was leaving only 10 days later. Deciding to up and move my entire life to San Diego wasn't a whim decision; in fact it was something I'd been plotting since … [Read More...]
