Today Dot Com

(First, thank you everyone for the kind Tumblr messages, tweets, comments, and FB messages wishing me a happy birthday.)   As some of you may know, I’m really big on Life Goals.  Life Goals are “big picture” things that I’d like to accomplish.  I have other mini-goals that may add up to a real Life Goal over time.  I take these very seriously.   A lot of my Life Goals are personal things that I keep to myself, but one that is quite public and quite high (um, number one to be exact) is to be on the Today Show.  I’ve watched the show since I was little and have always been completely intrigued by it.  At some point in middle school, I decided I wanted to be on the show before I was 22.  Arbitrarily chosen, but turned out to be a really good approximation.  The only stipulation is that it can’t be for something bad.   Well, I’m 22 today.   And yesterday, an article I wrote was published on Today.com.  Now, it’s not exactly the show show, but I think it’s definitely a good start.  Over the summer, I was contacted by the editor and through various emails and phone calls, we came up with a few ideas.  One of which is this 2-part article.  It’s a watered down version of The Freshman 50, but covers the basic (and “big picture”) advice I have.   Anyway- I love for you guys to take a look!!!     You can view the article here.     (On the home page!)   xoxo   PS I can’t wait for you to see the other surprise coming up on Today.com soon!
