Biting the Apple Again

"Make your mark in New York, and you are a made man" - Mark Twain

OH New York City! How I've missed this place & the friends who made nights so memorable! I left New York permanently in the winter for the adventurous wild west, but something tells me when I returned this Spring - I still left a large piece of my heart there. Gosh, the 4am nights, the late night binge in K-Town after the raucous, late brunch within walking distance, the different types of people you meet if you just say Hi! The damn pothole filled sidewalks that always leads to something new & keeps you trippin'. It's been six months since I left, and I've come back to so many changes. And that's why there's really NO place like this crazy place I called home for 7 years. I love LA, but NYC will always be me. My trip back this time was to see my cousin & friends, officially move out of my old apartment, and be rejuvenated by this air that somehow just drives you. And now I'm paying for it with a body-stricken cold!

Shout out to my friend Lucas for taking these shots in the streets of my old stomping grounds, the Lower East Side. Thanks, my dude! xx
