I love New York


So I haven't written in my blog in a while because I wasn't quite sure what to write about. However, I thought I would share my latest experiences to keep everyone updated. Since I was in LA, slight complications with the plan to set up a home, so I freaked out, threw my stuff in my car, drove home, and caught a quick flight to New York. Since I have been here, I can easily say that I am the happiest that I have ever been. I am staying with one of my best friends, Lauren Browne. It has been absolutely uhmazing. She is such a good friend to me and we have a blast living together. My other best friend Kelsey Rogers is in New York as well. I can't believe we are finally together again. Me and Kels haven't been in the same city together in over a year. It was about time that we were reunited.
I spend my days here doing castings, and when I'm not working, I'm usually with Kelsey at her apartment over in Chelsea. Work has been good since I have been here as well. I tested with Mac on Tuesday, done two shoots for Sacks (pictures for their website), and I'm flying to LA for 36 hours for another shoot at the end of next week. My agent here at IMG, Lisa Dirucco, is absolutely fantastic. She is so sweet to me. It was her decision to have me get extensions for my work, which turned out absolutely perfect, and tomorrow we are going to go shopping together. I really love IMG, they are such a good agency, both on paper and in their personal relationships with their girls.
At this point, I would love if after the fashion weeks, I could move to New York because I work best here, and both of my best friends live here. I also love that it is half way between LA and Paris for direct bookings. However, the past has shown that my plans never tend to work out. So let's see what the future holds for me. I am nothing but excited for my future and how things have been going with work and personal life ;). I'm remembering why I put off school for this career choice. Hopefully nothing but happiness and good times for the future.
XOXO
