Hi, hello and welcome to my little inner world. This is my first blog post for Sydneys World. If your reading this and you have no idea who I am well it might just be better that way. This blog is going to consist of my random thoughts, lessons I have learned and some random daily occurrences. I should probably tell you a little about my self so let's begin. My name is Sydney, I am 18 years old, a July cancer and I live in NYC... I have many passions which include fashion, art, cooking, yoga and photography. I know those are some pretty surface level things to know about a person but this is just the beginning. I just moved to New York this summer for art school. I'm planning on using this blog to look back at my life and my perspective of things at this monumental point in my life so I hope you are ready to experience this journey with me.
I moved to New York from long island on June 1st which isn't much of a journey but it definitely is an adjustment. I live in a 5 floor walk up directly next to a smoke shop (which doesn't help my slight dependency on weed) with my Roomate Madison and my cat Miko. I have lived here for 2 months now so far it has been filed with excitement, angst and lots of change. I'm saying goodbye to my old life and it all hitting me now. As much as I have been craving this independence for my entire life the change is scary but it is the only constant so I might as well embrace it. School starts for me in a couple weeks and I am excited yet indifferenet. School has never excited me in general and it's definitely has proven to not be my strong suit. Hopefully art school is filled with creative expression rather than math equations. I have been told parsons is filled with oppurtunity so I am planning on making the most of it. Although, creatively I do feel like I have been in a stand still. Partially because my brain has been occupied with unnecessary anxious thoughts. Mostly about all the people coming into my life and leaving it all at once. Some leaving it physically but not emotionally as a lot of my close friends are moving away. It will be strange not to see them as much as I used to but we are all making our own little life paths and Growth is nesscary for all of us. The comfort of old friends definitely brings me home when I am all alone in New York. Speaking of new ..... a new person came into my life recently came into my life causing general chaos for me but with no intention to. I think I fall in love with the idea of being loved rather than the actual person.. Don't we do everything in life to be loved at the end of the day. Anyway... To escape this certain person and my life recently I went up to my Vermont house, which has been in my family for years and was a big part of my childhood.. My close friends from Long Island , Natalie, Tim, and Ella all went with me,... We have been going up to Vermont the past two years together and always have had the most magical of times. It was our last big chunk of time together before everyone goes their separate ways and starts their lives. It was exactly what I needed after the last couple weeks I have had. We made flower crowns, laughed, cooked, foraged and overall became complete children of nature. I took shrooms while I was there and let me tell you..Nevermind I won't tell you.Another blog post for another day. I am trying to stay focused on myself and no one else... which tend to be the focus of all my anxieties, I can't help it though I am a sucker for love but moving on.. My Bubbe always says you can be A masterpiece yet a work in progress at the same time and I think that is the approach I am going to take for now on. Im starting to work on worldofmyown's fall/winter collection which I am extremely behind on. I keep promising I am going to hit up the fashion district and finally get this show on the road but I keep procrastinating.... I will keep you guys posted. Now that I finally own a computer I can probably be more productive and start to make strides in worldofmyown. . Starting this blog makes me truly feel like Carrie Bradshaw but instead of a cigarette in my hand while typing I have a j and my kitty trying to bite my computer the whole time.... I hope you all stick with me and continue to follow on my journeys and things and blah blah.... It will be one wild ride. Welcome to my world ---- Xoxo Syd
