I'm the oldest of the bunch, somewhere in the middle of quiet and loud...let's call it medium, k? I do have a temper, but I'm as sweet as pie until you piss me off. I watch Friends DVD's like it's my job and can recite every line to every episode, and at least once a day I reference a Friends episode to everyday life. Seriously, ask the others.
I love me a good memoir, and the Metro Section of the New York Times. Everyone's first impression of me is ALWAYS wrong.
I have a thing for Tea--Chai, Green, Lipton, Rasberry...and I admire my Aunt who can easily drink 18 cups a day.
I am a HUGE animal lover, and will one day donate my millions to create a no-kill animal shelter on a enormous stretch of land in the country to let the doggies run around and play with each other.
I believed my Dad when he said, "There's always room for cookies."
I am fascinated with other cultures, other people and will always be caught judging a book by it's cover. We all do it, don't lie.
It's dramatic, according to my boyfriend. I love to tell a story, a good story. I also like to incorporate humor, because it's important. I've been a journalism rebel from the start, (Prof. Good would be so proud) and never followed the inverted pyramid style, which made my editors at the Times Herald Record none to happy with their intern. It was after that experience that I vowed to myself never to work at a daily, and that it would be magazines or broadcast for me.
Going with the statement, "Life never turns out the way you planned" I am now at an online magazine, as their Senior Music and Fashion editor (what were they thinking? I know, right). I have been privy to some SWEET interviews, as well as New York Fashion Week. At the same time, I can't help but feel like I am pigeonholing myself here and want to strive for something more.
For the future, I want a nice house in Westchester, an office with a view of the park and the envy of everyone I went to high school and college with. A house in the Keys would be nice too. A gig as the Beauty editor of a Condenast/ Hearst magazine or a gig on MTV News would satisfy my journalism hunger. Or perhaps a move to the West coast. I have always had big dreams, deal with it.
I am currently living at home with my Mom, commuting 2 hours door-to-door to NYC and plan on moving in with my boyfriend when his apartment is finished being built (long story). My goal this year is to basically get myself out of debt and become completely independent.
And like Meg, said...I wouldn't mind becoming a D-List celeb-someone who is familiar but not followed by the paparazzi.
One last thing, SAVE BRITNEY!
