Remember… if you don’t read these, I get fired. (Not entirely a joke.)
Where can I find this girl?
Although this video is absolutely hysterical, there is something really beautiful about it, too.

My two latest articles for HAHAJK.com were posted today, and it appears I was in a bit of a political mood (which I assure you is extremely rare).
“Mitt Romney: Hot Cop for President”
“Joe Biden’s Daughter Weds, Biden Seen Wearing Shoes For First Time In Months”

Lookie here! The girl gets a chance!
My first pieces of writing that I actually got cold, hard cash for (and which made it onto the site’s front page simultaneously!)
1st up - A proclamation to the world that I love, nay adore the trainwreck that is Courtney Stodden. Read it here.
2nd - My take on the demographic of people who enjoy Fifty Shades of Grey, which you can find here.
And if you don’t read? Well… I get fired. Seriously. I do. I’m working freelance for Christ’s sake.

My favorite show of all time.
I nearly cried when it went off of Netflix watch instantly. Thank goodness for the DirecTV iPad app.

Nowadays, with so many movies being released, it’s often difficult to pick which ones you’re going to go see.
That’s why I always appreciate when the words “Tyler Perry” are in the title. It’s like telling me right off the bat, “You never want to see this movie. Ever. Never ever.”

Had to watch all the videos for this classical duo called Igudesman and Joo today for research at work.
While I don’t think most classical music is entertaining, this is. It really, really is.

With every ending comes a new beginning.
Thursday was my last day of my internship at CONAN. Bittersweet. There were lots of tears and lots of beers involved.
It felt like just when I was getting into the swing of things, it was time to leave. My nearly 6 months at CONAN taught me things about television production that my schooling could’ve never taught me, and I learned things about myself I didn’t even know there was left to learn. I wish I could say more, but I’m still conscious of the vow I took to be discreet. All I can really say is thank you to the CONAN staff for the kindness and the laughter. And to all the other interns? I can’t wait to see where we all end up 10 years from now. I wouldn’t have wanted to go into this new experience with anyone but you mentally unstable fools.
And to remember my time there? That rock, given to me as a parting gift. Sentimental, to be sure.
Last day Thursday, a goodbye celebration until the bar closed that night, next morning I was on a plane back to the East Coast. Just like that. Tomorrow, I start a job (that’s right, guys, as in someone is silly enough to pay me) at WGBH, Boston’s PBS member station that produces a bulk of PBS’ national programming (Downton Abbey, Antiques Roadshow, Arthur, etc), working in their Creative Department.
I had never imagined myself moving BACK to the East Coast 6 months after I move all the way out to the West Coast. Just as I was feeling a little uneasy about big plans being changed, I come home at 1AM and find those flowers waiting for me from my boyfriend, and suddenly, I realized, I’m only 22. I don’t need plans.
