Theme Song

Right when I had reached my most apprehensive point about moving to the city, my mom sent me a link to this New York Times Op-Ed. It's called the "Brooklyn Bridge Song" and seems to fit my situation perfectly:

1) The masterminds behind this little project are not only not from New York, but also from an area that I'm willing to concede is part of the South for the sake of this blog (Austin, Texas is cutting it close).

2) The drawings are of the Brooklyn Bridge and seeing as this blog is called "Waking Up In Brooklyn," that goes without saying.

What sold me? This passage:

"...he felt for a moment that he could live in New York forever, that it was a limitless source of inspiration, beauty and wonder that — despite everything that makes living in this city difficult if not impossible — was almost holy in its ability to inspire."

Thank you New York Times! You have not only put my fears to ease, but also provided me with a sweet theme song. Enjoy!
