The city and pending news.

January 27, 2008 · 5 Comments

Since my plane landed in New York my life has been unbelievable. I’ve checked off more items on my “Things to do before I die list” in three weeks than I have in seven years. Opportunities plop in my lap without warning.

I never imagined that my average day would allow me to spend every afternoon at Lincoln Center reading old dance magazines, interviewing at national publications, hitting the ballet, and having dinner with friends laughing well until midnight.

I keep thinking I’m going to wake up.

This week, another huge opportunity presented itself. I can’t say what it is exactly until I get the official go-ahead on Monday afternoon. But if I do get that go-ahead, another thing on my list will be completed. I can give you a hint: it involves some on and off camera reporting during a major twice a year “invitation only” event in New York city. I will keep you posted (and my fingers crossed).

    Maybe! Sophie I missed you at the blogger-get together, were you able to make it?

    Unfortunately I wasn’t, as I’m in rehearsals for my school dance concert, but I’m planning to practically live at Lincoln center when it’s done! Haha.
    I’m sorry I missed it too though, it sounded fun and I hope I can make the next one!
