How The Hills Was Almost My Life

Interesting fact:
On this week's ep of The Hills, Whitney leaves her job at Teen Vogue, and in the course of 30 minutes gets an interview, a job offer and her first project. (In The Hills time every day is like a week to real life, as evidence by the Paris episode.) The job she takes is with fashion PR firm People's Revolution, owned by Kelly Cutrone. What does this have to do with me you ask? Well last May when I was a bright-eyed college graduate who first moved to NYC with all the possibilties in the world (ha sorry I couldn't resist), one of my first job interviews was WITH KELLY CUTRONE. I randomly found her e-mail address online and e-mailed her my resume, I figured what the hell (this is when i stupidly thought I wanted to work in fashion PR). To my surprise I got an e-mail back for an interview, and even though I had no idea what position it was for, I went. Turns out it was to be Kelly's personal assistant, so I met directly with her. After admitting I couldn't work on Fri nights- Sats she told me basicall I can't work in the fashion industry cause all the shows are on the weekends. There goes that. She is crazy I think, but was pretty nice to me, trying to make suggestion where I could apply.
So back to the show- Whitney went to NY for fashion week and she went to the office (in Soho) and they showed Kelly like yelling at her assistant and her looking really tired and stressed out and I can't be more happy that that is NOT my life. Just saying, Whitney was almost my co-worker.
