Standing in the streets of New York was as good of a motivation as any, to not listen to anyone but my own heart (ok and maybe Madonna). I never doubted that someday I would live in NY but I needed something to inspire me and push me to keep working hard for it. When I went to New York over break for a short day trip, I was reminded all over again of my dream. In my heart I knew that’s where I was meant to be (as cheesy as that sounds) but making it happen at this point in my life, seemed nearly impossible. For about a year I have been feeling hopeless in this area. It’s something that I have tried to do but sadly haven’t been able to do because of money, or other circumstances.

I have wanted to live there since before I knew how to spell it. My entire life, New York City has been the goal. Instead of complaining about the car ride, or the fact that I only would be able to spend a day in New York, I decided to see everything as a sign from destiny. So when I heard Madonna say “there’s only so much you can learn in one place.” It was as if Madonna herself had been sitting right next to me sharing intimate stories of her successes and failures (very few failures, I’m sure) I immediately felt like this road trip, was meant to inspire me, and remind me of what I want, and where I want to be. I hadn’t heard this song in a good six months, and I was in one of those moods where I take every song very literally, and try to connect the lyrics to my life, like they had been written specifically for me. On around the 16 th hour of travel, I was listening to “The Devil Wears Prada Soundtrack” like the smart, cultured, girl that I am, when “Jump” by Madonna came on. The nearly 20-hour drive to New Jersey from Kansas City, definitely took a toll on my mind and body. This time I was somewhat reluctant considering it was going to be an 18-hour drive both there and back, but I was willing to do just about anything as long as it meant I could be reunited with New York. I don’t really care where to, or how long, the whole experience is enough for me. Over winter break I was lucky enough to go on a short road trip. Amazon has a lot of variety too with mostly prime options: Socks are like mugs in that they can be customizable and fitting for almost anyone. Here are some awesome mugs on Amazon right now:įace mug with donut/biscuit holder: $12.99 PRIME

If a person on your list has a specific interest or hobby, I would just type that into Amazon followed by "mug" and see if there are any results. They are so customizable and can fit any person. You can use them to drink out of, eat out of, or to keep little trinkets in.
