The idea for this blog started the other day when a new intern started at work and I saw on her resume that she went to Emerson College (my alma mater). I let her know that I went there too and then she asked me what year I graduated. I said, "2007" not thinking it was all that long ago. However, she promptly responded with, "Oh well that's when I graduated from high school..." and I instantly felt like I was 87 years old.
Yet, that realization lead me to question if I've changed since I moved to Los Angeles three years ago. Of course everyone evolves as they move through life. I remember senior year of college when my roommate at the time (Hi Leyla!) told me how different I was from the preppy girl she had met Freshman year. But what has happened since I moved here? Have I become jaded and one of those girls that I hated/made fun of when I visited LA in February of 07? This blog is to chronicle all those moments when I feel like I'm a utter and total valley girl and when I feel the complete opposite and long for my east coast roots.
If nothing else maybe someone will read this and want to make it into a TV show. Wait, does that sentence make me jaded?
Nope, not jaded, just thinking like a writer (pssst kind of why I started mine). Keep it up lady, I shall read.
