Connecting the Dots

Lately I’ve realized that whenever I type out a facebook wall post or comment or when I write in my journal, I use very long, run-on sentences. I overuse the ellipses – the dot dot dots that connect one thought to another to another to another to another…

I wonder if this is because that is how my brain works. I feel like most of my written journaling is pure stream of consciousness, and that involves a lot of disconnected thoughts that float around.

For instance, if I were to dot dot dot my current thoughts right now…

There are many things I want to write about… living in New York… Joffrey Ballet trainee program… how whenever I want to find a Starbucks I can’t even though there can be literally two on the same block sometimes… looking for part time virtual jobs is no fun.. looking for churches is tiring and daunting…

Maybe I should finish my thoughts more often.

I’ve been enjoying my life here in New York a lot, and I know that my daily routine is suiting my introverted self right now. I walk up early, before my roommate, commute to dance, dance with lots of people and talk to only a few, come back, and amuse myself until bed time. I’ve been looking for jobs, and possibly may be working retail (suspense… stay tuned!) but I like being busy so hopefully this will be a good way to fill my time and earn an income, even if it is only $9.50 an hour. I’ve settled in, for the most part, and created a nice space for myself to dream in and to work in and to feel happy coming home to.
