My school is doing a project where we have to shadow a professional who works in a career that we're interested in. I HAVE NO IDEA WHO OR WHAT TO SHADOW!! I am interested in writing, acting and singing, but that's hard because obviously I'm not going to fly to L.A. to shadow an actor, and singers don't exactly stand around and sing all day. I emailed Sarah Dessen and Jodi Picoult, but Sarah sent me an automatic response saying that she doesn't take emails from fans anymore and while Jodi took the time to send me a legit response, she said that it's really boring because she mostly sits at a desk all day so she had to say no. I might be interested in law, but not really. There is a famous music producer and singer, Tyler Ward, who lives in my city, so I may be able to contact him. ANY IDEAS??
Thanks! <3

 

Hey girl,

 

You don't have to shadow someone super famous -- if you're interested in writing, why not shadow someone from a local paper? You can also find local singers at restaurants and bars, so use your town's newspapers to find out some local artists and try to reach out to them -- you'll be more likely to get a response that way.

so i just finished my christmas shopping for my friends and i have a big dilemma. I got super cute cards that have let it snow and a cute girl on the cover, but the inside is blank. whats a cute message i can write inside other than the classic merry christmas and a happy new year? i want it to mean something and be creative... thanks! Smile

 

Hey girl,

 

Why not go with an inside joke that your friend will get, or a reminder of something funny that happened to both of you? It will remind her what a great friendship you have!

These gifts don't look that cheap, I mean if my mom got me all of the things on this list that's just $20 alone just for my stocking.
