gut feelings. you can't shake 'em, and they have a way of prodding you until you finally pay a little attention to them. that was me last summer in new york. like "baby," i most definitely was not put in a corner and i had the time of my life! so when this little gut-prodding feeling that i should reconsider the life-long haynie girl dream of making it big on madison avenue in new york post-graduation, and instead move to chicago, i was a little less than thrilled. what could "the windy city" possibly hold for me? (insert doris day solo here). so, after a fortuitous job hunt, a B in my final math class (ever!) and diploma nearly in-hand, i packed my bags and headed east. now, as a junior copywriter for Leo Burnett, living in some swanky (albeit, temporary) digs in the loop, this is my home. my career. my new life. you might be interested to know that my parents met here. oh yeah, AND i was born here. so coming here is a little like coming home for me. seattle has always been my home, then provo, then on my mission it was ohio, and for however fleeting and blissful it was, new york. we'll see how this compares.
