Life is hard to explain but easy to enjoy

Beyond my wildest dreams.

Things do come true. You can attain what you aspire. Simply put you can get what you want, whatever you want. Almost a year ago I had a dream, a dream to go to Paris and study at University. Planning, applications, meetings and introductions took place, I worked hard, I worked extra but yesterday I received the news that I knew would make it all worth it.

Nous sommes heureuse de vous inviter a la universite de Sciences-Po.

Acceptance. Confirmation.

I had it. I AM GOING TO PARIS.

I can't believe after all these thoughts, ideas, plans, dreams, its now really happening. I still listen to Carla Bruni songs on my way to work, imagining myself on the other side of the world, barefoot on cobblestones chasing my french lover. Eating du pain and un chocolat chaud at my local cafe, people watching, taking charming Parisian photos or browsing magazines that I struggled to understand.

I believe that things come true. That if you can think it, believe it, DREAM it, you can make it happen. I truly believe this. For a small town girl to be able to leave for one of the biggest, most glamourous cities in the world, on her own and with only short term plans and a future of opportunity, it is clear that we can make anything happen. Don't stop short of what you can't think or dream, think big, bigger. There's no limit.

People say shoot for the stars, but why stop there when there's footprints on the moon?
