My Sweet Valentine: Inspiration for tough times

This version of Ben E King's Stand by Me gives me goosebumps.

My Sweet Valentine: New York, New York, United States; I'm a Swedish girl living in NY for the past 14 years. I came here with the intention of staying for just a year and then head back home to continue my education. However, a year in college lead to 3 more and after that I was stuck! I simply loved NY too much to ever move back. I guess meeting an American boy did not help either! I work at an advertising agency in Manhattan and love my job. I spend most of my time off dining out and in, shopping, reading about trends, fashion and design. I love hanging out with my family and friends. They are the pillars of my strength. I'm almost always in a good mood and I smile a lot. I'm a complete optimist–I think you need to be to survive in NYC. I like most people, I love very few. I trust my friends to always have my back, and they do. I think that's pretty much me in a nut shell.
