Well, it's over; for now at least. Today was my last day at Seventeen for the fall 2008 semester. I was the last of the fall interns to leave, but the truth is, I just wasn't ready to let go. I went into the internship looking at it as a job/learning experience, but came out with great friends and a great experience that validated my love for fashion. My internship made truth of the magazine's tag line: "It's fun to be (working at) Seventeen!" I'll miss working in the city for the time being.
Speaking of working in the city, Whitney Ports spin-off of a spin-off (yes, re-read that to get the full effect), "The City," premieres tonight on MTV. I may just watch it to see if the show is worth a minute of my time, but I think it'll just be a fictitious portrayal of what it's like to be living and working in "The City." I'm also sure MTV won't show the struggling side of trying to make ends meet in an expensive city, but wait. I hear MTV pays well and since Miss Port is getting paid to star in the reality show, she probably won't suffer. Eh, either way "The City" might be mildly entertaining because it's being filmed in my soon-to-be home after graduation: New York City. And in New York City, anything can happen because it's filled with different type of characters.

sounds like you have learned a great deal. good luck with your future endeavor.
ReplyDeleteI live in Northern VA, but I've been to Bethesda!
ReplyDeleteLovely new song!
I'm thinking I want to live in NYC when I grow up as well. As for such an expensive city- I know someone who just graduated from UPenn Law, earns six figures, lives in NYC, and rooms with two roomates. He tells me it is super expensive as well. That worries me slightly because for a while that was my career plan. Lately, though, I've just been lost with no career path direction- medicine or law? I thought I had like at least one more year to figure it out, but my parents are definitely pushing for a decision soon.
yeah i dont think it will be a realistic portrayal of living in NYC either. now that would be a show i would definetely watch!!
ReplyDeleteAw, seems to have been great working at 17... Can't you apply for a job there?
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I love your new song you have playing on your site! I like Duffy!
New York City... I wanna go there sometime...
And I wouldn't waste my time on watching MTV reality shows starring Whitney Port :) Although it may be funny to watch - once in a while.
I might check out the show if I have time to catch the rerun online on the MTV website.
ReplyDeleteHappy new year! I'm sure 2009 will be a stylish, fun-filled year for you in which you'll pursue many new fashion ventures. :)
