Negative Nelly, I know...

Wow. It's been 7 months since my last post. I'm clearly not good at this blogging thing. I also think that I'd be boring the daylights out of you if you had to read about my boring life every week.

Things have changed. A little. I'm currently working from home teaching Korean professionals English. It's convenient but also very socially isolating. I never see or meet anyone new. Living in New York, for this introvert, has been very different than what I expected. I never realized how much I depend on others to make plans for me and to make my life exciting. Looking back, it's always been like that. I tend to latch on to people who are the leaders in the social planning arena.

I'm also realizing how picky I am about who I really want to spend my time with. Spending time with people who I don't have A LOT in common with ends up annoying me and making me feel like I'd much rather be home alone. I miss my friends.

Am I that Miami cliche after all? Am I the kind of person who really never wants to leave the comforts and safety of the bubble? It's turning out that way.
