In all places I am typing this entry up at the airport. Seems as though Fl there wasn't too much to do for getting a job. Unfortunately it does happen and you have to think of what's best to do in the moment in doing it. Therefore I'm heading back to NY for a bit. The cold is something I'm not looking forward to and those leaving behind.
Sometimes it has to be done though, and this time I was able to do a bit more here which was promising. Assessment aside, I need to do quite a bit in NY so I can return to FL to go to school again. As I need residency for it to be cheaper, and without money you can't count homeless as a way to claim it. One thing about the trips in being someplace else is the refreshing nature of someplace new and what can await in the future. There is much that can behold including promise of better experiences. Perhaps that is what makes this trip harder to be heading back before really wishing it. Still even if it feels to be leaving a part of myself here and it does ache when thought upon what will be missed most, it's worthwhile to keep that stride to persevere and do more.
Even with sadness there's strength. Goodbyes are never easy and they can be difficult, but it doesn't mean forever. When I get back to NY, I plan to start more drawing in attempts to really push myself to work with commissions and other types of artwork to help bring in more income sooner. I have someone to thank there even if my art wasn't at it's best as it was fun to draw for them again and not be as rusty. I estimate that 1 or 2k would be enough for a longer stay and would allow me to have enough to find decent work and college.
Soon I'll be on the first plane to Washington DC and at the IAD airport this time which is different than the other. (I can't remember it's name.) I wonder what monuments I'll see from the airport this time. Last year I was able to see the Lincoln and the Jefferson monuments at night and to that it was really something special being at the capital for that short time. I suppose you have to look at most things like an adventure as this trip certainly was with many twists and turns upon it. There are things that will be most memorable that for even a slightest moment I had to just stop and just savor it, like my visit to Epcot. The way the lights at dusk illuminated the park outside the British pub was beautiful.
There were many more moments like that, but it's best not to fully describe them here as some art might be better. The laughter and fun times I'll miss greatly, just being around someone that it's been a long while can feel like home simply by the warmth felt and eternity again without. Those memories are always the best souvenirs, more than any physical item can contain, even the words to describe it aren't easy. It's always a risk to do anything, but even without finding a job it wasn't a failure or even a step back. It was rewarding and worth the experiences to get here in the first place.
An hour left and it's hard to type with all those memories rushing back. Maybe that's what makes it all special, including those that will be missed dearly. (I can name one or maybe two.) Still as the sun sets here in Orlando and night will bring me to Washington DC and then Buffalo, it's been memorable. NY might not feel completely like home as it used to, but I do have a place for my momentos from the trip. My tickets, my xmas cards and my dragon statue. Along with those precious memories that again lead a promise to return again someday soon.
