The other day I thought to myself....hey maybe I should have my own blog....I can be pretty funny plus I can tell people what I have been up to. So here I am writing my first blog. I am not sure how entertaining this will be for some people but hey....not my problem.
So it has been almost six months since I graduate from Shippensburg University. For those people who don't know where that is...it is in Shippensburg, PA...for those don't know where that is....just google map it. And it has been almost five months since I moved from Stewartstown, PA (once again if you don't know where it is...google map it) to New Jersey. Now I know what some people might be thinking..."Why the hell do you move to dirty jersey"...well my friends....during my senior year I was trying to figure out what I was going to after I graduate from college....my brother Brenden and I were talking one day and he mentioned off hand that I could come move with him to New York City. I thought about this for awhile...then one day I called brother asked if the offer was still on the table...he said yes. Brenden started to look for apartments and found that New Jersey was much cheaper then NYC....so here we are....in Jersey City. Not the best of areas but it works for now (and no worries a more detailed blog of life in jersey with brudder and seester is to come)
Now you might be wondering "ok Casey...now that you are in Jersey what are you doing with your life?" Well...I have an internship in Manhattan with an event planning firm. Which I love. It is unpaid but I am getting great experience and the people I work with are awesome. (More details to come of corse) To pay the bills and have money I work as a hostess in Hoboken, NJ. (And as you might of guess a blog of my adventures as a hostess is coming....I know you are waiting with anticipation)
"Now Casey"...you might be thinking to yourself "why have you titled this the ups and downs of post college life"....well let me tell you. Trying to figure out your life after college is a difficult. Moving to a new place is a difficult. Being away from your best friends is a difficult. (No one knows how much I truly miss walking down the stairs and up the stairs to Happy Dale) Now don't get me wrong....I am meeting new people....going out to new places...and having experiences that I would never been able to have staying in PA. But believe me... I have my days when I think to myself would it really be that bad living in my parent's house rent free in PA?
I am pretty sure that one day I will figure it all out (hopefully)...but until then....this blog we'll be used to tell the world of my Ups and Downs of Post College Life.
