I am laughing so hard right now — this is too hilarious! I went to Mary Yerkes’ beautiful site because, bless her, she has a link to Mom 2 Mom Connection. She showed us her results from a fun quiz called Where Do You Belong? Her answer says she belongs in London.
Well, I sat back and thought — OK, there is no one looking over my shoulder. I’m going to dream…and just answer exactly the way I REALLY want to.
HA! Here is how my quiz turned out:
You Belong in New York City |
You’re an energetic, ambitious woman. And only NYC is fast enough for you. Maybe you’ll set yourself up with a killer career Or simply take in all the city has to offer. |
This is too funny. I live about as far from the New York City lifestyle as a person possibly can. So, I guess that’s why someone like me enjoys keeping up with the world via words and books! I think I could be quite happy in New York. I’d love to work in a busy, crowded publishing house in an office piled high with books. I’d love to be an editor, seeking out writers who are full of dreams. I’d enjoy trying to discover THE ONE and propel him or her onto the bestseller list (like Nicholas Sparks was discovered by his agent…(sigh)…I love that story.)
Well, I’m thankful to be who I am and where I am now. But I do like to read those Chick Lit books every now and then about the 20-somethings who end up in NYC. In my 20s, I lived in a city of 12 million people (in Japan). Now I live in a world of 12 million crushed Cheerio crumbs on the floor. And 12 million kisses on my cheek from little people who love me and call me “Mama.”
Life is never dull.
