Of course.

Every time I watch a show based in Manhattan, where a plush office in a tall building is featured, with high powered, bitchy, nasty people, it makes me want to move there even more.

This may sound weird, but the pressure I always see portrayed in these programs are the kind of environments I know I will work well in. Left to my own devices, I would never get any work done. A smart and neat bitch, or a nattily dressed ruthless man, I'd love to work for either and both.

New York has a big pull on me. After my last visit, I fell in love. I love the American way of life, I love big cities and I love being in places I recognize. From nearly every spot on Manhattan, I could probably recognize something familiar, whether it be the Empire State or Chrysler Buildings, the UN headquarters, Lady Liberty or the Brooklyn Bridge. The architecture in New York is beautiful, the open spaces are gorgeous and the people are friendly. I love American food. I love cheesecake. And I love the flavours of cinnamon and peanuts, things American food would be non existent without.

I would want to go there now, to study. Due to market forces, I can not afford to go to university in America. This is why American's always make such a big deal about college funds. A year at university in America can cost over $50,000. A much greater number than the ones expected here in the UK.

So, I resign myself to at least another 4 years of Great Britain. My hope is a part time masters in America, so I can start my life out there quicker.

This written down, makes it sound like I'm running. I'm not.
