A fresh start

Well it has been a while since i sat in front of this computer and revealved my thoughts. A lot has happened since the last time i did this. Not really anything dramatic i guess, but just a change in the way i think, feel, have grown. I'm still working at JoJo, and things are going great there. I have come to the realization that for one, I have a hard time accepting mediocrity. Umungst myself, and in others. It's not that i am a snob in any way fashion or form, I just find myself getting bored with things or people that aren't up to it's or thier full potential. I think it is my mind saying that i need to surround myself with the best. No matter it be work or people who want more out of life or are passionate about what they do.
I've been tossing around the thought of Moving to New york City. I know it'd be a big step, but I feel that i have to take it sometime, and why not now. I'm not afraid of change. I'm afraid of failure. I won't let life pass me by, and i refuse to waste my time thinking what if again. I owe myself that at least.
It's been a good few months. Yes, i have been working my ass off for many hours of the day and night, and my life has changed dramatically, but it is for the better. I know it is. Things will be changing pretty soon though. I put in my notice for leaving JoJo today. Now you may say "i thought he was happy?" I am, but i need to focus on my music, I need to be able to work on where i want to take it! So i need a day job, and get things back to where they used to be. But I talked to the head chef today about it, and he said that i could most likely work mornings till afternoon, and just work on making all the pastires and whatever else, and then that would completely free up the rest of my life. So we'll see what happens. Just need to train someone to do what i do they way i do it during service.
Well basically right now what i need to do is keep up with my bills, buy my car, practice as much as possible, make many more connections, and continue to learn as much as i can. This is a new beginning for me. Mentally i have aged another 3-4 years. I know where i want to be and it is time for that change to happen. no matter what anyone says, i'll make it. People said i wouldn't make it when i left Eastman.... 3 words " head pastry chef." I hope that everyone i know can feel this way about life. If not, i hope it comes to them soon. I wish everyone a great spiritual and mental release. Ciao.... Thank you Barbara, Quinn, Alecia, Zurine, and Justin
