NYC
Living in NYC now. It's official. It took a few days of work and the routine kicking in for me to realize I wasn't just visiting, but that I had truly finished with GWU, spent some time transitioning at home, and moved to a new city.
I took two suitcases from home to my new apartment. I also pictured Uhauls and business like that. Besides a few small packages coming in over the next few weeks, I'm actually living quite well with just two suitcases. I have this place for a lease of 5 months, then either a renewal or something different. We'll see if I can find new roommates. Hopefully new people joining the team full time. :)
I truly have the best job in the world. I was walking from my hotel room towards the plenary at the Rowdies regional conference, thinking about the 200+ people in the hotel there to learn from, contribute to, and expand the mission of AIESEC US. What other entry level job can you have working with young people, thinking entrepreneurially, developing an enormous network, all while thinking about the potential market share of your company - 12.8 million. Not 12.8 million dollars. Way more than that. 12.8 million students. Add on the 3+ million that graduate every year and it exceeds 20 million. Although AIESEC US has been around for 50 years, for all intents and purposes we are a start up - we're in a new world, a new era, a new structure, but with the same mission. I think it's about time we give the world what it's been patiently waiting for.
