I watched them come together and express love, unity, and support for one another. A poignant moment that was performed today that really stuck with me was a short theater piece on equality.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;It showed a beggar, a gay couple, a well off married couple, and a military personal, and the only line that was spoken in this performance was at the end…“People to people…we are ALL people”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;WHY is this SO HARD to understand?!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;WE ARE ALL PEOPLE!!!!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;W&lt;/o:p&gt;HY is this so hard to accept!!!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;WE ARE ALL PEOPLE!!!!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;YES! we are all different&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;YES! we ALL struggle!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;BUT…&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We can love &lt;u&gt;people&lt;/u&gt;! We can accept &lt;u&gt;people&lt;/u&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We do not have to love and accept what they do, and we do not have to support their actions. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;BUT…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;      &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;We can love the person!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am a single, white, female Mormon who grew up in Utah and lives in New York City.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;There are A LOT of people who are different than me…&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The wealthy businessman, the druggie, the married couple, the homeless, the Pastor at the Lutheran church, the homosexual, the alcoholic, the atheist, the list goes on and on.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I do not define myself as any of these things…but does that mean that I should shun, look down on, or judge them?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;NO!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;WE ALL STRUGGLE! &lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;       &lt;/span&gt;In different ways…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;we ALL have faults and flaws and imperfections…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am imperfect…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I struggle…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I have faults…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I have flaws…&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I wish that I could shout it out on the rooftops, I want the world to know! &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am NOT prefect!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Neither are YOU!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Neither is ANYONE on this earth!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Not in the sense that you really wish that you were them and not yourself, but maybe that you…um…..Envy..…no….Idolize…..erm……&lt;br /&gt; look…up... to….them?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay really I don’t know what to call it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whatever it is – I DO! I totally feel this way about someone! Yesterday (this may sound creepy) I sat for a good while on my computer and looked through this persons facebook pictures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sat and looked through his pictures as I pondered upon how I can be more like him and do what he does…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a person that I really admire for a number of different reasons…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;he pretty much does everything that I want to do!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-He is an awesome teacher! I LOVED taking classes from him and I was REALLY sad when I came home from my mission and found out that he had switched to teaching at UVU instead of BYU.&lt;br /&gt;   In my old apartment we used to talk about our “professor crushes”…it’s the professors that you have a “crush” on….not because you are physically attracted to them….but mostly because you find them intellectually attractive. I think that this person would definitely be one of mine!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-He is a brilliant director… brilliant I tell you!!! I don’t know how he comes up with what he does! But I LOVE it!!! And I am INSPIRED by his work!!! I want to work with him! And learn from him! Gah!  I have loved attending his workshops in the past and have learned some awesome things! PLUS he introduced me to Viewpoints AND other really cool things which I LOVE!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-He is an AWESOME actor…I love going to ANYTHING that he is in! I am never disappointed with his performances!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-He has a beautiful wife and family…I someday want a beautiful husband (ha that sounds a little weird) and I want a family! I love hearing his stories about his kids!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-He travels…and gets paid to travel…and he studied in England which would be my DREAM!!! And he gets to take his students on Study Abroad programs and do workshops in foreign countries and I think that’s AMAZING!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;… how do I get to where he is now?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s the question I ask myself…I know that we all have different paths and I can’t take the exact same path as another person…but then again I think it is good to have these role models that we can “look up to”…and think…hey! They did it! So I can too!...right?!....I think so!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This person probably doesn’t even know how much I have a high regard for them!&lt;br /&gt;Anyway…Thanks Christopher Clark for your example and advice and friendship!

YAY!!! it was BEAUTIFUL outside yesterday and today!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YEsteRdAy I went to the gym and ran 3 miles on the treadmill (I really dislike running on the treadmill- but its better than snow and ice) and shortly after realized how beautiful and sunny it was outside and was sad that I didn't take advantage of that opportunity- but TODAY I DID!!! I wasn't going to let that chance pass by me again! it wasn't sunny today like it was yesterday - but it was still warm and beautiful running weather!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I took my favorite run in Central Park...I realized that I should have worn my older shoes that I dont care as much about...but instead of jumping over puddles and trying to work my way around everything I decided to not let it slow me down and I ran through! and I figured - "hey I am running OUTSIDE!!! GLORIOUS DAY!!!! WHO CARES IF I GET MY SHOES DIRTY!!! I AM OUTSIDE!!!! so I was happy! perfect way to really break in those new shoes! =)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3724054419025676200-6225614646481241426?l=kristykadish.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/feeds/6225614646481241426/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/2011/02/breaking-them-in.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3724054419025676200/posts/default/6225614646481241426'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3724054419025676200/posts/default/6225614646481241426'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/2011/02/breaking-them-in.html' title='breaking them in'/><author><name>kristykadish@gmail.com</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06358188034227383964</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-bItSldScGQ8/TWRjVE-QU5I/AAAAAAAADc8/DiUt5chnfRI/s72-c/DSC06686.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3724054419025676200.post-2889377787449592656</id><published>2011-01-29T20:58:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-02-22T17:25:07.042-08:00</updated><title type='text'>NYC Movie Moments</title><content type='html'>Living in NYC is SO GLAMORIZED!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VvmM8OzT3jw/TVtbCA82TmI/AAAAAAAADa8/7b8YucggcZE/s1600/NYC.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block;

My back was turned and I could tell that he was trying to figure out who was over, I turned around and his face was completely priceless! I LOVED it! He looked so confused and then happy and excited! It was another GREAT moment! I really wish that I could have caught on video us surprising the kids today…really priceless! They didn’t know that I was coming. HA! Loved this moment!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stephanie and I went to go to a movie…She picked a chickflick for us to go and see.&lt;br /&gt;We went into the theater and watched about 45 minutes of previews...I said, "This is ridiculous, how many previews are there?" Then Harry potter started playing. HA! we laughed so hard! We totally walked in and sat down in the wrong movie...but the movie that we were going to see was already 1/2 over by then - so we just ended up watching the Harry Potter movie. I sat and racked my brain for a bit trying to remember what had happened in the last movie so I could better understand what was going on - ha! Its been a long time since I have seen the&lt;br /&gt;Haha!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Thursday  11-25-10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OH MY!&lt;br /&gt;Blessings Blessings!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I am grateful for:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Family!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Friends!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;The Gospel!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;…I feel like I should make a list or something…but there are SO MANY things that I don’t think I could get them all down, or do justice to what I really want to say about how very grateful I am for all the blessings that I have in my life. But I think that most everything fits into those 3 categories that I have listed above!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I spent this morning with Meredith and she made cinnamon rolls and hot chocolate for breakfast.  YUM!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kristie and Sarah Martin and Pete (Kristie’s fiancé) came and picked me up and I went over the Martins house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TP5Ib8AgQVI/AAAAAAAADJ8/4wsYjXdRPjE/s1600/downsized_1125001605.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TP5Ib8AgQVI/AAAAAAAADJ8/4wsYjXdRPjE/s400/downsized_1125001605.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5547951435768938834" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Cindy prepared an AWESOME Thanksgiving Day meal!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TP5CJzuQlNI/AAAAAAAADIs/jXZPeDDi6MM/s1600/DSC06024.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TP5CJzuQlNI/AAAAAAAADIs/jXZPeDDi6MM/s400/DSC06024.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5547944527237518546" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Richard cutting the Turkey!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TP5CKQe_K8I/AAAAAAAADI0/-AFTIGNJwzk/s1600/DSC06027.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TP5CKQe_K8I/AAAAAAAADI0/-AFTIGNJwzk/s400/DSC06027.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5547944534958091202" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The girls making the roles.&lt;br /&gt;It was Really nice to spend Thanksgiving with the Martin Family. And really nice to meet Pete. I really like him he and Kristie seem really happy together!&lt;br /&gt;Pete was recently baptized in August.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love how the gospel spreads! Pete and Kristie plan on getting married in August in the Temple. I am SO happy for them! Its pretty cool cause before Kristie had said that she didn’t want to marry a Mormon in the temple. and now she is engaged to Pete who is now a Mormon and their goal is to go to the temple! Awesome!? I should say so!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also got the COOLEST present from Richard and Cindy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On my mission I LOVED the old fashion door bells that are actually bells that you turn like a wind-up toy on the outside and it rings the bell in the dorr. ½ the time the ringers didn’t work on the door that I found them on. BUT the MARTIN family has one!  And I LOVED to ring it every time we went to their house!...and every time I would leave their house too…haha I would ring it on the way out cause I love it.  They knew that I loved that doorbell and Richard told me once. “Well I am getting a new door! And when I do you can have that door bell!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I noticed that they got a new door when I went over for Thanksgiving and Richard said, “I have something for you!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He gave me this…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He has saved the door bell off of their old door to give to me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am so touched that he remembered that.

Its crazy how much all of these kids are growing up! HA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went with Sis Pace to drop her son Nate off at basketball practice and then she suggested that we drive around Medina a little bit…so we did! We took a drive down memory lane…that’s defiantly what it seemed!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We ended up going out to Lyndonville and stopped by an old investigators house. Sadly enough they weren’t home. I left them a note on their door…speaking of feeling like a missionary again! Ha!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We headed back to the Pace home I spent time in the kitchen with sister pace, eating pie and a great “thanksgiving sandwich” that Bro Pace made for me.

I LOVED it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got to see a LOT of people at Church that I LOVE and miss and I am so glad that I got to visit the Pittsford ward!

And saw a lot of AMAZING Miracles happen there as well!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I then took Jamie out to Palmyra…he had never been to the church history sites.&lt;br /&gt;We drove by the Hill Cumorah and the temple, and then took a tour at the Smith Farm through the Frame home….oh my gosh!

Turned off the alarm clock and went back to sleep.  I was awakened by my roommate saying.  10 til 9! 10 til 9! As she rushed out of the room in a frenzy to get ready and go to church. I took a few extra minutes to pull up my hair, put on some makeup and make myself presentable as Ingrid hurried out the door.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The train pulled up to the platform right as I arrived at the stop- perfect timing! Rode the 2 stations up.  My eyes were watering terribly so instead of slipping right into sacrament meeting I went to the bathroom to get some tissue paper. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are the reasons I sat where I did…In the very back. I would usually be up closer in the pews with my roommates etc. anyway. After church I saw a friend from BYUSA.  Scott and I were chatting a bit and he looked over and saw 5 people sitting quietly in the middle of the hustle and commotion of the transition between sacrament meeting and Sunday school.  He said…um I think we should talk to these people. I thought oh- okay whatever. I guess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi blah blah…&lt;br /&gt;We met Denise and Romeo.  And I didn’t get the name of mom and dad and…um…uncle I think…because they did not speak English. They are from Italy they have been in NYC for 2 days and are staying for a week. Their tourist book suggested to come to our church. So COOL! I guess I didn’t realize that going to the Mormon Church in Harlem was part of the NYC tourist experience. =) OF COURSE IT IS! HA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I thought…hummmmm….there has GOT to be someone here who speaks Italian! I invited them to come upstairs with me to Sunday school and found out from the sister missionaries that there was a girl, Jen, in my ward who speaks Italian.  So I grabbed her and during Sunday school we had a little 10 minute introduction to the church lesson in Italian! I sat there understanding VERY LITTLE….but SO MUCH at the same time!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WOW WHAT AN INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY I have to be part of THIS! This church and this gospel! WOW! I am SO INCREDIBLY BLESSED! What other church could you randomly go to in Harlem and…oh yeah sure let me find someone who can speak to you in your native language…cause they served a mission in your country!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SO COOL! So we were able to share with them a little bit (well Jen talked to them and I sat and smiled)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They LOVED the Hymns that we sang in Sacrament meeting! So the 2 women came to Relief Society with us and stayed for the 2 hymns at the beginning before they went on their way.&lt;br /&gt;I got their information and told them that I would send the missionaries to see them in Italy and they were very welcoming to it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AND they told me that I should come and visit them in ITALY!!!! FOR SURE I WILL!!! HaHa! I LOVE IT!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Really quite an incredible day! How everything worked out the way it did! WOW! I don’t think that I would have met this family if I had not been late to church and then my friend Scott who just happened to be visiting from DC this weekend decided to introduce himself, and I took it from there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dang!

I really need to change my sleeping schedule. It hard cause I don’t have somewhere that I NEED to be so I keep on staying up late and waking up later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went running in central park. Came home showered and continued my job search. I have been in NYC for one week today. I have had a few interviews and turned in many resumes. I am really hoping that I can find a good job…SOON!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My roommate Val is not feeling well. No good when you are an actress in the midst of auditioning for parts…she actually has a call back today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My other roommates started looking up remedies, one ran to the store to grab her lemons, honey and tea. haha They are so sweet! I live with good kind girls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Those dots above are a representation of a passage of time.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went out for a while and had a job interview and turned in some applications and now I am back at home. Had some chips and salsa and have been continuing my search for a job. really...thats what I do...all day...every day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I gave in to applying to some restaurants today. Not my top choice of work. Considering I have my bachelors degree! Man! It’s a bit ridiculous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s the thing…I have so much to offer! Really- I am intelligent and ambitious, I am a hard worker and fun to be around.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heavenly Father wouldn't tell me its okay to come out here and take that internship and not help me with a means to support it...would he?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s the question that I have been asking myself. I have been in NYC for a week now. I am supposed to start my internship on Tuesday and I am having a heck of a time trying to find a job that will fit with my internship schedule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The problem I am running into is they want me there 3 times a week from 10-6. And all of the educations and theatre jobs that I am finding don’t work around that time frame. So I decided that I would maybe try something else. Besides I need something to just help support me through the next 4 months while I am doing this internship. So I went and applied to some restaurants. But not even that will work with this schedule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rough spot eh?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I cannot get a job then I cant even do this internship…I cant even be in NYC. I need to have a means of supporting myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So started to wonder…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is this internship what I am supposed to be doing?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had been thinking for a while about moving to NYC. But I am not really the type of person to pick up and go somewhere without a plan. I need to have something set up before hand. Even though I had been told by quite a few people that I needed to just move to New York I couldn’t let myself just pick up and go without something set for me, without a solid purpose of being in NYC.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the week after I got home from India I was offered this internship and that gave me the reason, sure I don’t have a job, it is an unpaid internship, but it’s something set and solid. When I was in NYC going to different companies and interviewing it is that place that I felt the best about. So I decided to take the internship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again the question comes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I asked this question to my best friend&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;K:  Heavenly Father wouldn't tell me its okay to come&lt;br /&gt;out here and take that internship and not help me with a&lt;br /&gt;means to support it...would he?&lt;br /&gt;Alex:  depends on what he wants you to learn&lt;br /&gt;K:  what is that supposed to mean?&lt;br /&gt;Alex:  ya know I wish I knew&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So if Alex doesn’t know then I defiantly don’t! Ha!&lt;br /&gt;I started to wonder:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe this internship that I have been planning on doing was the Lords means of getting me out to NYC, but not necessarily what I am supposed to do.&lt;br /&gt;I was talking to Miriam about this and I loved her insight:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Sometimes when I am about to go somewhere the Spirit tells me to go back and get my camera. And I think, “but I don’t need my camera.” But I go back and I get it anyway to find that an important envelope that I really did need was right underneath my camera.  So THAT is the real reason that I needed to go back, not so much for the original purpose of getting my camera.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the camera we just the means of getting her there for something that was more important/something that she needed more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think that this internship is my “camera” It is what the Lord used as that means to get me out to NYC.  But now that I am here it looks more and more like it isn’t going to work but there are other possibilities that could work instead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I went out tonight – with my roommates. I had been in the apartment all day...actually that’s a lie, I ran 4 miles this morning! It was BEAUTIFUL!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I was indoors and Kourtney decided that we should go to Cannal street.&lt;br /&gt;Kourt, Ingrid, and I went together. Cannal street was fun! Lots of different kinds of people: Indians, Africans, tourists…it was kind of like India at least in the way of shopping.  You could totally barter and get MUCH better prices then what they originally ask for!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don’t have any money so I was there just for the people actually. I love the diversity and talking to the people who are trying to sell bags, watches, sunglasses and cheap souvenirs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“you want a bag, how about a new bag”&lt;br /&gt;K: “I have a bag…whats wrong with my bag?”&lt;br /&gt;“you want a new bag! Its 2010! That bag is like 97!”&lt;br /&gt;HA! LOVE it! I love talking to the people selling things on the streets.&lt;br /&gt;“you want some sunglasses?”&lt;br /&gt;K: “I got some right here.”&lt;br /&gt;“oh you need more!”&lt;br /&gt;K: “why? If I wear 2 pair at the same time people will think I am strange, do you want to make me look stupid?”&lt;br /&gt;“you need a new watch”&lt;br /&gt;K:  “what wrong with the watch I have?!”&lt;br /&gt;“that watch is old”&lt;br /&gt;K: “you think my watch is ugly?”&lt;br /&gt;“no, no your watch is beautiful, like you…you very pretty…like princess”  HA! I love this! I wish you could hear it in the African accent that I heard it in!&lt;br /&gt;So yeah good times on Cannal street&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIvYzoJCAoI/AAAAAAAAC3w/g47Tov8nBHQ/s1600/DSC05090.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block;

It used to be right next to the World Trade Center Buildings, but now has been moved here. So it is a bit dented up from the day the towers fell. Also there is an eternal flame in front of it, as a memorial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We Decided time to go home...it was late...&lt;br /&gt;Actually a few people decided to go on the statan island ferry, but Kourt, Ingrid and I were ready to go.  I realized once I got on the sub how ready I was. My feet were done walking and I was tired!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was one point that the train stopped and they announced multiple times, “sorry for the delay, the police are investigating a train ahead of us…sorry for the delay”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We got home and I opened up my laptop and I had received an email from Justin with the Theatre Mitu company with Most Welcome News!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Ruben said you had expressed interest in interning and after a conversation between him and Candida, decided that he would like to formally invite you to intern with us and skip the normal application process.  Considering your recent history with Theater Mitu it is easy for us to jump right to an invitation without an application proper.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YEAH!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am SO FREAKING EXCITED!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is what I would have really originally wanted to do anyway! Work with the Theatre Mitu company! I am honored at this opportunity!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is something that has opened up to me because I was here!...it is the important envelope that was underneath that camera! And even though I thought that my purpose in coming was to get the camera, I need to pick up the important envelope because the camera was just the means to get me to the envelope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am REALLY grateful that the Lord has led me to this! And I believe that this internship with the theatre Mitu company will be much better schedule wise –so I will be able to get a job to support myself so I can stay in NYC!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See! Its the important envelope under the Camera!!! I FOUND IT!!!!!  AND...I think I am starting to learn the lessons that Heavenly Father wants me to learn...its a process...but I am getting it. =) But now I know that it is okay for me to put down the camera, because I have found what he really wanted me to come and get. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I need to figure out my work situation.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3724054419025676200-5155188930845904809?l=kristykadish.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/feeds/5155188930845904809/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/2010/09/ha.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3724054419025676200/posts/default/5155188930845904809'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3724054419025676200/posts/default/5155188930845904809'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/2010/09/ha.html' title='HA!'/><author><name>kristykadish@gmail.com</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06358188034227383964</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIvYzoJCAoI/AAAAAAAAC3w/g47Tov8nBHQ/s72-c/DSC05090.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3724054419025676200.post-4408919252601825179</id><published>2010-09-01T20:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-14T10:17:47.977-07:00</updated><title type='text'>NYC Week 1 (first 1/2)</title><content type='html'>Events of this past week (Mon Aug 30th to Wed Sept 1st)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went down town to go to the Union Square Chapel and talk to some people at LDS employment services. 2 ppl who work there and a senior missionary couple.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TI41-NRZ6xI/AAAAAAAAC4I/AmSMKgSi0kc/s1600/DSC05079.JPG"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TI41-rwOiMI/AAAAAAAAC4Q/fZtIrzCrEfY/s1600/DSC05076.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TI41-rwOiMI/AAAAAAAAC4Q/fZtIrzCrEfY/s400/DSC05076.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5516405944588601538" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;this is a picture of the building from the outside...as soon as you step inside it feels and looks like any regular meeting house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We had a roof party the other day...just had some friends over and snacks to share.

I cannot believe it is already the 31st! WOW!....Um….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I have been thinking a lot lately…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I think all the time, but let me see if I can track these thoughts about this particular subject that I want to share…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was talking about how absolutely AMAZING this summer was!&lt;br /&gt;And I would re-live it in a SECOND!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;May/June – became best friends with Alex and Brandon&lt;br /&gt;June/July – 5 awesome weeks of efy&lt;br /&gt;July/August – India&lt;br /&gt;…really….REALLY?!?! yes my life is good&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet now looking back at all of the wonderfulness in my life there comes a bittersweet taste. The past year of living with THE 5 most amazing girls that I have EVER met…&lt;br /&gt;All graduating together…&lt;br /&gt;And then my awesome summer…&lt;br /&gt;It makes me a little bit sad to realize that things will never be the same again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a way I am still in “summer traveling mode” and I think my body and mind are starting to wonder when I am going back to Provo to reunite with my dearest friends and start school back up.  Then I have to remind myself that it’s over.&lt;br /&gt;…that’s the worst statement I have ever heard my mind say to itself…&lt;br /&gt;It’s over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet it is…&lt;br /&gt;Katie is in Buffalo&lt;br /&gt;Sue and Megs have both married wonderful men&lt;br /&gt;Miriam is in Arizona&lt;br /&gt;Beth is in California&lt;br /&gt;Alex is in Provo&lt;br /&gt;And I…&lt;br /&gt;I am in New York City.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I am really starting to come to the realization that life has to move on and when that happens people go different ways.  Honestly, I have thought of this before, but it is really coming to life that it really will Never be the same again! I guess I just have this secret hope that we can all be together again and have dinner group, and roommate prayer, games nights and full intentions of watching a movie but end up sitting around talking for hours instead just because we all enjoy each other’s company so much. And there is a part of my heart that will always long for that…for us to all be together. Looking back I know that I took that friendship and our time together for granted so often. I am so incredibly blessed to have such good people in my life!&lt;br /&gt;I pray that I will continue to be blessed in such ways!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was reminded of a song that I like called "Summer is Over" by John Allred&lt;br /&gt;here are the lyrics:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish sometimes that I could stare back at the sun&lt;br /&gt;Cause I'm afraid when I'm alone down here&lt;br /&gt;When all these days, just seem to blend back into one&lt;br /&gt;And Growing old is the only thing we fear&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And time won't wait for you, so please make up your mind.&lt;br /&gt;If summer is over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I won't forget the way the colors in your eyes&lt;br /&gt;Remind me that these nights won’t last forever&lt;br /&gt;It took too long just for us to realize&lt;br /&gt;That time was all we had for worse or better&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And time won't wait for you. So please make up your mind.&lt;br /&gt;If summer is over&lt;br /&gt;Than I won't wait for you to kiss me one more time.&lt;br /&gt;it's almost over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the night's are getting longer, and the feelings getting stronger when I'm looking at a silhouette of you.&lt;br /&gt;And there's so much I could say, all this time I've kept quiet. I've been saving all my words for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And time won't wait for you. so please make up your mind.&lt;br /&gt;Cause summer is over.&lt;br /&gt;Than I won't wait for you to kiss me one more time&lt;br /&gt;it's almost over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And time won't wait for you. so please make up your mind.&lt;br /&gt;this summer over.&lt;br /&gt;Than I won't wait for you to kiss me one more time&lt;br /&gt;it's almost over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and you should listen to it too! He has it on his play list on his MySpace page&lt;br /&gt;http://www.myspace.com/allred&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's over...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;once again, one of the hardest things that I have ever had to tell myself and still am fighting to come to a complete and full realization of the fact. Cause I don't want it to be over. I want to hold onto it for just a little longer. But I can't...cause its over.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3724054419025676200-1046362798901545356?l=kristykadish.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/feeds/1046362798901545356/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/2010/08/its-over.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3724054419025676200/posts/default/1046362798901545356'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3724054419025676200/posts/default/1046362798901545356'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/2010/08/its-over.html' title='It&apos;s Over'/><author><name>kristykadish@gmail.com</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06358188034227383964</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3724054419025676200.post-6213392455887532690</id><published>2010-08-28T10:18:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-03T10:53:20.163-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Hangin' with the Sisters!</title><content type='html'>Tonight Kortney was home, she is staying at the apartment while she looks for somewhere to live, so she is a sudo roommate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She asked me if I wanted to go to Coldstone with her…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;#1- I really don’t have the money to spend&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;#2- I don’t need the calories&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;#3- I REALLY don’t have the money to spend&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;we got there right in time cause a massive group of people came in right after us, so we were right at the beginning of the long line. along with the massive group was about 9 nuns in blue and gray habits!  SO COOL! A whole group of nuns at cold stone. I was trying to figure out how to indiscreetly get a picture of them but couldn't. So we took our ice cream and walked around a bit, in no particular direction, just walked and talked.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We decided to head back and walked back by coldstone and the nuns we all coming out.&lt;br /&gt;Kourtney said, "lets just go ask them!"&lt;br /&gt;we crossed the street...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now by "lets ask" she really meant YOU ask...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I walked up to them and started talking to them, which church are they at?

Its something like 16 blocks from my apartment. So not to far. I took this picture on my walk to the social security office...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIErw46nkUI/AAAAAAAAC3Y/i6H3OHGvIpQ/s1600/DSC05069.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIErw46nkUI/AAAAAAAAC3Y/i6H3OHGvIpQ/s400/DSC05069.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512735537790161218" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I liked the look of this old building against the beautiful blue sky!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I waited in line...of course I forgot my book. I dont know why but whenever I lug a book around with me I don't have time to open it, but whenever I leave it at home I find myself wishing I had it with me. Such is life.&lt;br /&gt;I stopped at the store on the way back home and I got to talk to Miriam as I was shopping. YAY!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...Friday night…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;…in NYC…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s the thing…I have no friends and no money! HA! Great combination eh?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I was on my computer ½ heartily looking for something. There is a fringe theatre festival going on now and I would love to go and see some of those shows, but once again I really don’t have the money. So I concluded that I was probably just going to stay home. Then I remembered hearing about Shakespeare in the park…so I looked it up and there was a show starting in 15 minutes. I grabbed my purse and went out the door and walked over to where the show began, I arrived just in time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I watched &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIEqvXWPdbI/AAAAAAAAC3I/sPSQvlXbIZA/s1600/DSC05071.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIEqvXWPdbI/AAAAAAAAC3I/sPSQvlXbIZA/s400/DSC05071.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512734412087719346" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Much Ado About Nothing – which is one of my favorite Shakespeare plays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was a fun show! I liked how it was presented! The audience sat on the grass and every few scenes we would go to a new location, so the audience would stand and hurry over to the next place, or sometimes they would have us all turn around and the front of the audience would become the back, or they would walk into the middle of the crowd and have us all form a big circle around them. During the party scene they handed out masks to the audience. And as it started to get dark they used big mag flashlights as their spotlights on the actors. I thought that was pretty great! I also loved that when they wanted us to move to a new location the production team who were spotting the actors with the flashlights would run ahead and sit on the ground and point the flashlights to their sides to mark where the front row was to be and the audience would all scurry up to the line and have a new seat and the performance would start again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I snapped this one picture really quick so you could kind of see what it was like...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIErQVDrwqI/AAAAAAAAC3Q/u6MjXt-EK24/s1600/DSC05070.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIErQVDrwqI/AAAAAAAAC3Q/u6MjXt-EK24/s400/DSC05070.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512734978408694434" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am glad that I found this performance to go to!

They are little mini cookies. They don’t have peper in them…or nuts…I know…don’t be confused. (hummmm....I shoudl have taken a photo....shoot!)Haha We have a fun little story to go along with them though…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  We made them 2 summers ago in Ohio for our road trip back to Utah for school.  We were eating them and so Johnny-boy hid them so we could save them for the trip.  Well ½ way between Ohio and Utah we realized that we had totally left them hid away above the cabnit where Johnny-boy put them. Haha! Oh well we enjoyed the penut butter brownies that mom made for us! (YUM! Penutbutter-brownies…now I really want some!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anway it was good to spend some time with my twinner! LOVE her!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I went to see Johnny-boy for a bit. I ran an errand with him, he ran an errand with me,&lt;br /&gt;and just talked for a bit and said goodbye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I came home and had a nice little barbecue with my family. A friend from my mission stopped by too! It was good to see him again!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The day before I came to NYC I had a lot of mixed feelings… I was trying to explain it…I couldn’t … it was kind of an anxious, nervous, knotted stomache feel…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alex called it “your moving to NY” oh…yeah…is that what that feeling is?...yep&lt;br /&gt;Alex and Brandon came by to say goodbye. Good to see them as always…I love those boys so much! When we were saying goodbye I had tears come to my eyes as Alex pulled away…he pulled back around instead of just driving off…so I didn’t think he would see me but he did, he looked at me and said, “are you crying!?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brandon then says, “oh man…emotions are going to start and then things’ll get awkwrd… I gotta go!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Haha…well that’s what I get for choosing them as my best friends.&lt;br /&gt;Boys that can’t handle emotions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My loving, kind, AMAZING roommate Beth came to visit me too! She even brought frosties for us. We sat out on the poarch and she and I got to just sit and talk. It was SO NICE !! I love Beth!  She is so encouraging and uplifting and pretty darn inspiring to me! She always knows just what to say! I look up to her a lot!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well…I stayed up way too late! And got an hour or so of sleep. Woke up, mom and Emily brought me to the airport. My layover was in San Francisco (yes I know its in the opposite direction).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I came to the JFK airport and found my way to my new apartment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Julie my roomie and 2 of her friends took me out to dinner at Crepes Columbus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIEmxK219cI/AAAAAAAAC2w/X6hc2qVMm_o/s1600/DSC05067.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIEmxK219cI/AAAAAAAAC2w/X6hc2qVMm_o/s400/DSC05067.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512730045048026562" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yummy Crepes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIEn2sYn_nI/AAAAAAAAC24/KdHJf_QUk-E/s1600/DSC05066.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIEn2sYn_nI/AAAAAAAAC24/KdHJf_QUk-E/s400/DSC05066.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512731239459061362" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;this was the BEST one:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIEpt8RHd2I/AAAAAAAAC3A/WGD5dLq_82s/s1600/DSC05068.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIEpt8RHd2I/AAAAAAAAC3A/WGD5dLq_82s/s400/DSC05068.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5512733288126969698" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dark chocolate, coconut and caramel crepe. It was Amazing! Pretty sure this food is not good for any kind of healthy diet, but who cares right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now back at the apartment…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think it is mostly because I am really tired right now…but I am starting to have returning feelings of…I am moving to NYC…I think it is also called: uneasy.  Yep that’s what it feels like is uneasiness!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I have these doubts that come into my mind and I think…BAGHDAD! what AM I doing here?...okay I have been here for 4 hours I really shouldn’t freak out, I just need to get some sleep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why is it that a text msg from ‘my one and only’ puts a smile on my face but makes my stomach/heart knot up? Well this is the first time that I have heard from my best friend sense I have been here… I was really happy to hear from him! It just came right as I was getting the “moving to NYC feeling”&lt;br /&gt;Bah!&lt;br /&gt;Its fine!&lt;br /&gt;I’ll be fine…&lt;br /&gt;    I just need to go to bed&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3724054419025676200-3921968920851133809?l=kristykadish.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/feeds/3921968920851133809/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/2010/08/hi-nyc-my-name-is-kristy.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3724054419025676200/posts/default/3921968920851133809'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3724054419025676200/posts/default/3921968920851133809'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kristykadish.blogspot.com/2010/08/hi-nyc-my-name-is-kristy.html' title='Hi NYC, my name is Kristy…'/><author><name>kristykadish@gmail.com</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06358188034227383964</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/TIEmxK219cI/AAAAAAAAC2w/X6hc2qVMm_o/s72-c/DSC05067.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3724054419025676200.post-5281582576542521008</id><published>2010-08-25T11:28:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-03T11:42:20.411-07:00</updated><title type='text'>TXt mSg =  :)  &amp; &lt; 3</title><content type='html'>I got a new phone today!...&lt;br /&gt;for FREE!

I read one of the poems that I wrote&lt;br /&gt;I will now share:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;The person who has their eye so focused on the bad,&lt;br /&gt;Never sees all of the good that there is to be had.&lt;br /&gt;The person who has their eye set where they are,&lt;br /&gt;Never can see the goal, and that it’s not far.&lt;br /&gt;The person who has their eyes turned the pessimistic way,&lt;br /&gt;Never can see the light of the optimistic day.&lt;br /&gt;The person who has their eyes concentrated to the ground,&lt;br /&gt;Never will see the good of life all around.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yay younger me- inspiring older me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This may be a bias opinion…but I like it! I actually considered making some changes to it before I posted it here…but I thought that I would give my teenage self the credit and respect it deserves by just leaving the poem as is and not changing it, I REALLY like the message of it!&lt;br /&gt;Also as I was cleaning out boxes I was texting an old friend and telling her about my life plans. I love what she said:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Friend 1: “WOW! Your life is like a movie!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My response: “I hope it’s an American chick flick then!&lt;br /&gt;Cause in those the girl gets an awesome job AND a man!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Friend 1: yeah and he is really hot too!&lt;br /&gt;haha…cause I will tell you this much – I love foreign films, but for the most part they do NOT end happily!...so I really don’t want my life to be like a foreign film.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I was telling another friend about this and she said, “Actually it’s a combination of a chick flick and a bollywood movie!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;…my response to that….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YES PLEASE!!!  Ah-hahaha!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well today we had a little get together up the canyon. I decided that I wanted to have a fire and roast some hot dogs, marshmallows and starbursts cause I may not be able to do that for a while now that I am moving to the city.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some pictures from our Rendevou….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They boys watched Sue try to get the fire going...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_11LiKGObdxM/THwzk-hhViI/AAAAAAAAC00/kiqMHcW7NfU/s1600/DSC05024.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block;

(and when I say conquer…well we will get to that in a moment…read on)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of these differing responses can be categorized into 2 parts-  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;#1- The happy/excited for you response: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Oh MY GOSH!... You are awesome!...thats so cool… That is my dream!....I am excited for you!...YAY!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AND…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;#2- The what the H are you thinking response: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“So…um….you are moving across the country with no job, no apartment and no money….huh…interesting”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where I stand…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you ready for this…I agree with BOTH!&lt;br /&gt;Humor me for one moment please…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;#1- &lt;/span&gt;YES I am FREAKING EXCITED!&lt;br /&gt;New York is an Adventure!  (do you remember my definition of adventure?...the word that positive people use to describe hellish expierences…we will come to this, hold on.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An adventure that I am excited to have for a number of reasons:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-I cannot progress in the way that I want to if I stay in Utah.&lt;br /&gt;Ways I want to progress:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   -In the Theatre:&lt;br /&gt;NY has MUCH more to offer! Experiences and connections that I need and want to be able to establish myself in my career&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  -In my dating life:&lt;br /&gt;As I have written in a previous blog dating doesn’t happen for me in Utah. Will it happen for me in NY? I don’t know…but I sure as heck am not getting anywhere here…so its time to try something else&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  -In my life experiences:&lt;br /&gt;There are people I need to meet and things I need to do in NYC- cant explain it, just know that I cant get the expierence I need here in Utah&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  -In my spiritual life:&lt;br /&gt;Yes I can grow this anywhere… and my spirituality is fine in Utah…but I need new scenery. I want to be in a ward that needs my talents and service!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this point Utah has nothing to offer me. So I go…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I am so excited at the prospect of meeting new people and doing new things and having different surroundings.  How cool that I have been offered an internship with the company that I was most impressed with and wanted to work with. How exciting that I will be in New York City. &lt;br /&gt;So I am a positive person (at least I really try hard to be) I like to look at the bright side I think it is much more pleasant to be around happy people. And because I am such a people person I want people to enjoy being around me! But I do NOT by any means believe that the world is full of butterflies and flowers…so that leads me to my agreeance with group #2…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;#2&lt;/span&gt;- BAH! WHAT THE H AM I DOING?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me share with you for a moment my fears and doubts – the negative side for just a moment.&lt;br /&gt;I am moving across the country, my internship is unpaid, I don’t have very much money, and I have no job. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;…hummmmm….lets think about this…I know it sounds stupid and a bit crazy and REALLY HONESTLY KRITY!  What are you thinking?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear friend…I realize these things…I realize that I very well may be screwing myself over…I realize that this is not going to be easy and when I say that I am going out to conquer NYC know that I actually expect to struggle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now my question…why would I focus on that? I don’t need to. My focus is staying on other things, #2 and the discouragement that comes along with it is constantly in my mind&lt;br /&gt;but there is something that I would like you to know…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not a rash decision. I promise…yes this may be a sudden thing for you that “huh…say what?!....Kristy is doing what?...moving where?...so soon?...where did This come from!?...etc etc.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I promise I have thought long and hard about it, I have prayed much and the Lord and I have spent time together in the temple discussing what he and I want to do with my life.&lt;br /&gt;So you may be part of group 1 or 2…or you may even fit in the category of group 3 (which is a combination of 1 and 2) much like me. Whatever the case may be your thoughts, and prayers are much welcomed and appreciated.   So that is where I stand. Right in the Middle, but I know that doubts and fears are not of God and that Satan doesn’t want me to progress.  So I am not going to take the easy way on this one. I am going to do what Heavenly Father wants me to do, and I know that I have his support and encouragement in this choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The words of Joshua 1:9 come as a reminder to me of this encouragement and the added promise that I am not alone in this, not in this choice that I have made- or in the process of carrying it out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; “Have I not commanded thee?
