The Internship


The internship is going fabulous so far!
It is amazing and I am learning SO MUCH about the publishing world.


I still have trouble believing that I am doing this, that I am here going after my dream. New York is a very different sort of place. Every morning I head off on my ten minute walk to work and that is one of my highlights of my day. Just walking. To anyone else that doesn't sound all that great, but to me its a new adventure. I have gone on this walk several times and each time it seems different. I notice different shops and stores each time; bakeries, the Ferrari store, banks, 6 starbucks (*wink*), clothing stores, etc. Though I know the buildings do not move its like the people change them.


Anyways, the other interns are pretty awesome! Some live near others live far (like myself).
All have the same passion for books and the publishing industry... AND quite a bit of us have the same passion for Harry Potter!

*squeak*

This past Friday a group of us got together to go to the Harry Potter Exhibition that is touring and currently here in NYC! Of course, being the HP fans that we are... we had to go!
Cameras/Pictures were not allowed on the inside but let me tell you that it was every fans dream!
They had items from the actual film! Everything from clothing, props, chairs, the spiders from the cave (super icky), full room set ups, the floating candles in the great hall, and so much more!
I did leave with quite a few treasures... despite the outrageous prices.
You will be able to see those soon... some I am saving for the HP Midnight release :)
Oh... I SO ate a chocolate frog also.

This Harry Potter book was on sale at the exhibition... I got a chuckle out of it because Harper Collins published these books and I now have it here in my room.
Amount paid for it? $0.00 thank you very much.


Sara Shepard, author of Pretty Little Liars series, is coming out with her first adult fiction book. That is another one that made it to my shelf! I hope to review it soon :)



There has been so much going on it has been difficult to get on track with everything.
Especially writing on this blog (if you haven't already noticed).

You got to see the "Taste of Times Square" that we went to last week however I still have to share with you the Big Apple BBQ from Saturday and the adventure of Museum Mile from yesterday!
There is so much to share and only so much I think someone is willing to read on a blog post.

Also, since this is a "friend and family space"... feel free to leave comments!
Let me know you're alive out there *hahaha*
Just click on the "Your Thoughts Here" and live some love. I need to have a connection to some friends/family back home. You are the ones that keep me sane and grounded *wink*

Well thank you for reading. I hope this is somewhat entertaining.
