There is a cat on top of me.

I'm going to try and write this in 15 minutes or less.

Little Dude (LITL DEWD) on my lap.

SO GREAT THAT THE BLOG IS BACK! I missed reading about everyone's fun adventures and lives. (1 min)

So a lot has happened for me. I quit whole foods and started working at some serious cafes with serious baristas. It's a lot of fun and I'm learning a lot about coffee and it's origins and I can make fun latte art now too! (If your barista can make latte art than chances are your drink will taste amazing!)

I'm pretty much done working at WNYC. I worked for them (paid work) last summer as a per diem producer and it has pretty much dropped off since then. I'm okay with it. I feel like I got as far as I could there.

I took an article writing class last fall and I'm writing a lot more now. I've written for a local online newspaper in Jersey City and for my editorial internship at Relix magazine.

I'm going to grad school! I got accepted to the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism!!! yayy! I didn't get accepted to UC Berkeley...I'm pretty sure it was because my gpa from undergrad wasn't high enough (those dumb accounting classes brought down my gpa drastically!). Anyway, I'm super happy about it. 

I'm moving to Brooklyn. (10 min)

I am starting a band. It is mandatory if you live in Brooklyn.

Speaking of bands, I played in WFMU's diseased Hoof and Mouth Sinfonia at Maxwell's last month. It was super fun. Ira Kaplan was in the band. google him.

Ryan and I are still together.

I'm crazy busy. Since I started my internship at Relix I have ONE day off in a month. I work 5 days at the cafe and 3 at Relix. (doubled up one day a week). I feel like i'm learning a lot there, but I am really, really, REALLY tired all of the time! !
