I Saw Her on the Cover of Seventeen...

Fate is messing with me again and in the best way possible.

I was up WAAAAAAY too late last night talking to my BFFSM, Tiffany, and answering some random questions people left me on my Formspring. I was "complaining" to Tiff how there was no one out there that I could talk to about getting this internship at Decaydance. I don't know anyone that has ever done this, and Google search after Google search just leaves me empty handed. I have a million questions and no one to ask. That's part of the reason I'm blogging EVERYTHING. I want there to be a record of how I did what I did to get to where I want to be for someone else to go "this is what she did". They can then take my journey and tweek it to fit their own. Anyway...I'm "whining" about not having anyone last night...today Seventeen Magazine comes in the mail.

Me and Seventeen go WAY back, so far back that it has rightfuly been dubbed my "fashion bible." If it's in Seventeen, it's a must have for my closet that season. Make-up tips, good female role models on the covers..I'm flipping through, looking at the clothes, making sure I'm up to date on all the latest flirting techniques (admit it, you do it to!) when I stumble across a new column.."Intern Confessions." Sounds interesting...then I look at the title of the article...the first type of intern they feature? A girl who worked at Universial Motown Records! Not Decaydance, but it's a start! I've read the article like 5 times already and it gives me a lot more confidence that I'm really cut out for this line of work. Everything she did, even the boring stuff, sounded like so much fun.

I still have a million questions, and I'm still looking for answers. But that's the great thing about this blog, and my Twitter. I can keep looking for people that have the answers or those people can find me. Because I know there are more girls out there just like me who love music and love the industry and would do anything to be a part of that, but like me, they have no clue how/where to start. Hopefully through my successes & failures, they can see that it's not that hard.

All I've done is decided that I'm done with not living my life for me and taking chances. Sometimes you just have to pull down your pants and slide on the ice. lol Risk it all for that one chance you MIGHT make it.

School starts back next week. I'm so ready to just get it over with now that I have my eyes on the prize. I'm really upset, my marketing class, the one thing I was really looking forward to, ended up getting cancelled. Not cool, but it does free up some of my time. :)

Best of luck to everyone!! Keep your head up & reach for the stars...whether they be the ones in the sky or the ones on TV...I have faith in you and your dreams. :)
