A New... Yorker Take

Yeah, I hate the pun too. But the night is long and I’m somehow still jet lagged over 7 days into the trip. 

I lost my wallet on Friday and somebody found it in Manhattan on Wednesday with all of my money ($400 cash) still inside of it. They messaged me on LinkedIn. HELLO?? Am I the luckiest person ever!? Yes. And I had so much help along the way - BIG shoutout to FLOCK. Amazing women. And the one and only Deb Morrison. Life. Savers.


I thought this was good karma at first. But then I thought… what bad karma did I deserve for the whole “losing-it-in-the-first-place” deal? I’ve come to a conclusion. It wasn’t a deal of karma, it was to teach me how to deal with insane situations - and I taught myself that I can handle myself even when things are tough. 

Cool. The New York trip teaches us more than Ad. But so has this whole major. I couldn’t ask for more.
