It's Official, I'm moving to NEW YORK CITY
 

There comes a time in a young man's life when he's gotta just take a chance. He sees his current life going nowhere and he starts looking for answers. He identifies the aspects of his life that tie him down to the same ol' thing every day, and he seeks to change them. Then he makes a plan... a plan to persue his dreams, and even to fulfill some lingering hopes. Then... he takes action.

I've sold my car and I'm booking my flight. I'm moving to NYC.

awesome Hal! Good luck in the move!

Awesome man! Good luck with the move.

Good for you Halx! Good luck with everything, I hope you find everything you're looking for and more. :D

Nice. Now I got a place to stay out there.

I look forward to lots of gatherings in NYC. :D

I want to wake up in the city that never sleeps
To find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap.......
.........
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New York

--New York is fabulous. Have a blast....

Damn. You gonna work with naked women in NYC, too?

Don't get mugged! I mean, have a pleasant trip! Actually, I'd be more worried about being molested by airport security. Okay, I'll stop now. Good on ya.

I'm so proud :) I admire anyone who is willing to drop everything they know to persue their dreams.

Good luck, Hal.
I hope everything works out well for you, fearless leader. :)

Best of luck to ya, man!! I also made the move from West Coast to the Northeast but I just ended but back home. Gotta love that Pacific Ocean. Anyways, everything works out well for you.

Best wishes, Halx!

I remember doing just that myself a couple of times.

Always a good move!

You are going to love New York! It's the greatest city in the world. Everything is there. Have a blast and Good Luck!

I think you should move up to Toronto. It makes New York look like Kentwood Louisianna. Plus it's way colder. And we have the CBC here...

Well, I am very happy for you.

Personally, I don't like NYC, but I sure hope you enjoy it! Are you a programmer by chance?

Good luck in New York!

Talk about hot and cold ,up and down ,in and out, stop and go etc..
What a great chance you're taking. I swear on a stack of bagels I wish I could
make the same move one more time. Best of luck I know you'll do great..

Gotta say...I'm impressed. Do you have any prospects lined up, or are you just going to wing it? In either case...good luck, man.

Good luck halx. Pursuing ones dreams, and taking a risk is what life is all about.

Your opportunities in New York are only limited by your fears. Being so fearless as to just pick up and come to the east, I'm sure you'll do really well. Besides, I'm 35 minutes away, so if you slack off, I'll kick your ass!!(Buddah will hold you while I do!)
You only need 2 things-a warm coat and to learn to say 'fuhgeddaboudit'. Good luck and see ya for lunch!!

nice, wow...me and my girl are hoping to move there next year sometime....please let us know how it all goes!

Well going to the second best city in the US is pretty good.

Good luck with the move! It takes alot to move to a new area..even if you think it completely through and analyze everything it's still a big step. I'm sure you'll make the best of it though. If times get tough there are plenty of people who have your back! :thumbsup:

Holy crowded streets, subways and parking lots! Niiiiice....welcome to Monday Night Football at 9:00pm vs. 6:00pm and everything else happening three hours later than you are used to now...:D

Awesome! I bet all the soul searching you did lead you in this direction. Hope all goes well with the move.

Wish I had the balls to just up and move.

Good for you! When can we expect your arrival?

Its about freakin' time....Truly, you my friend are in for a new life. Figured the Capital of the new Empire would be east coast, just makes more sense.

Way to go... New York can't wait for you to arrive...

Takes guts to pack up your life and move across the country... Guts like that will make you a success at whatever you choose to do...

Travel light and travel safe...

They say if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere...
You only live once. Good Luck.
(Damn...you sold that awesome car!! :eek: )

Well, that is good news, if I've ever heard any! Way to go, Halx!

Looking forward to many more future TFP meets here :D

Mooooovin' on up, to the Eastside
to a deluxe apartment, in the sky-y-y...

Anytime you wanna take me up on that beer and the kick in the junk, you just let me know.

Congratulations. Someday I hope to develop the courage to do something so significant.

NYC is now officially TFP Central. Take that, uh, everybody else!

The only thing I know about NYC is that they have about 10 times everything that everyone else has and then some. Which can be good or bad, so good luck!

:) yay halx :) good luck with the move and hope you love NYC as much as I do (and everyone else who lives here :))

I begin my first occupational tour of New York on December 7th. BuDDaH and I will be searching for an apartment. It will be named 'TFP HQ' or.. 'The Snake Pit' - haven't decided. From there, we will fly to California, rent a big truck, throw all my stuff into it, then take a road trip across the country. Nifty huh?

Hmm - Pearl Harbor Day...

Everyone, keep your eyes open for the new gonzo porn website, "The Snake Pit", featuring Whitesnake and... hmm, the Black Adder? Either way, I'm scared...

Right on man! Congrats on that! I did the opposite (Jersey to San Diego) 8 years ago and it was the best thing I ever did. I grew a lot and really learned how things work.

Cool that you don't need a car in NYC - although it had to hurt to sell your sweet ride. I am sure you will find lots of opportunity as long as you keep your eyes open and your ass off the couch.

Let me know if you will be here for the unofficial sendoff in OC on what looks like the 18th.
