17 mile bike ride, and new apt info

So today was an eventful day! I rode my bike from Huntington Beach, CA to Irvine, CA (approx 17 miles). Ummmmmm yea, my legs are going to fall off and all that will be left is a torso! I wanted to see if I could do it, and ummm I did but I know I will be sore tomorrow. I hit 3 major hills, it started raining on me, and then the wind was blowing when I arrived in Irvine, so I was riding against the wind. Hahaha yea. But the awesome thing is that a person never feels more alive then when the heart is beating and ready to explode. It's nice to feel alive and go through the motions.

Another super fantastic thing, I got a call from a girl I have been communicating with in regards to an apt in New York. Its in Brooklyn, about 15 mins subway ride into Manhattan. It sounds perfect. 4 girls live there. One is getting her Master's at the college I am applying too, and the other two girls work for the Red Cross. So there will be the community service piece and the Master's program in common between us all. We had a half hour conversation about our expectations of each other, the place and of life. We seem to get along well. She has a couple of people looking at the place this weekend but said she is inclined to give the room to me. So we shall see. I will know by this weekend. I am not too worried because I know if this doesn't work out, there is another divine plan. But I really hope I get it! =D In addition, I networked with a VP I used to work with at Disney Films (from when I interned there back in 2006) and his friend's fiance got in touch with me today. She is a recruiter in the entertainment industry and she is going to meet with me once I get to NY and assist me in finding a job. She asked me to send her my resume, and I did. She will be keeping a heads up starting now for opportunities that will arise. Things are coming together nicely and it is exciting. Now i just need to go through all my clothes and stuff and see what is essential to take, and what isn't. Thanks everyone for your support thus far, I can't tell you what it means to me.
