Letter

I have a secret to share with you. Ready? I hate writing these letters. I'm not particularly funny (at least on purpose). I'm not witty or clever or profound.

Rather than use this space as a letter, I’m going to make you a list. If you remember from a few weeks ago (for the three people who read these beside my beloved Mom and Dad), organized girls love lists.

Penn’s changed a lot since I first settled into a cramped Hill double three and a half years ago. No more happy hour specials at LTs.

I have a theory about being brilliant. If you do something I don’t know how to do, then you must be the best at it.

Halloween makes people uncomfortable. Some can’t handle all the costumes, all the candy, all the frat parties named with terrible rhymes. But others get into it.

Lists are like crack to organized girls. We can add to them indefinitely and make them look elegant and important with curly handwriting.

I had big plans for Fall Break. I wanted to go to Vegas. I had visions of flaunting my legality. I would sit at a slot machine, shmooze with Cher and sneak into the Real World suite at the Palms. Then Yom Kippur happened. With a last name like Goodman, I knew I couldn’t spend the holiest day of the year parading around with would–be Vegas showgirls.

When I was a kid I would devour Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul. I would sit in my bathtub and soak for hours, reading and re–reading stories of broken hearts and bones, tales of ‘tough stuff’ and tragedies. I think it stemmed from a typical t(w)eenage yearning to know what’s really up with our peers.

My first concert was a really sweaty My Chemical Romance set at the Downtown in Farmingdale, New York.

Being Google–able sucks. We crazy college kids can’t really do stupid stuff anymore. Well, that’s not true.

As most wrestled with the rained–out Quad activities on Saturday, I was knee deep in New Orleans. No, I wasn't going through Mardi Gras withdrawal.

If you're reading this at all you're probably just, like soooo totally flungover (haha puns are just the best!) in bed on Sunday evening and are reflecting back on the 48 (or 72… or 96+) hours of flingin' flangin' fun you forgot to remember.

Penn has taught me a lot about the idea of the “best.” Best way to accidentally spill your friends’ secrets?

As an English major who has never taken a finance/marketing/management/advertising/Wharton–mumble–jumble class, I'm simply business–talk inept.

Nobody really watched Skins. You know, that MTV teen drama that was spawned from the brilliant British version.

I am no fashionista. My mom picked out my first birthday dress (white lace), my Bat Mitzvah dress (pink raw silk), my prom dress (white lace again) and even my first college formal dress (tight and black). Luckily, with seven female roommates, I have live–in style gurus.

Back in kindergarten we made refrigerator magnets. I decorated mine with rhinestones, purple swirls and sequins.

In honor of Street’s second annual Fiction Issue, I’ll now take you on a journey back to my adolescence.

There’s nothing better, homier or more comforting than coming home from a loooong day and curling up in front of my TV.

I’m in love. I’m hopelessly, maddeningly in love with a tin box on 38th Street. What holds grip of my heart, you ask?
