The first step to becoming a Brooklynite...

The first step to becoming a Brooklynite is getting a place to live! I guess I should explain just how that happened for me.

I just graduated from college with a degree in Film Production in May. Last summer I had worked on "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" and got to know a lot of the people who worked on the movie, including the Art Department Coordinator. I stayed in touch with her, and after I graduated I emailed her and asked what she was up to. She was just about to return in the TV show "Lipstick Jungle", and offered me a job on the show in the Art Department starting in August. Of course I had to take it! The only problem was that I lived in Stamford, CT and the commute would be pretty rough to their studio (Broadway Stages) in Greenpoint Brooklyn. That's where I got really lucky! My boss' son was just about to move into his own place in Williamsburg with another guy that I knew. They showed me the place and I absolutely fell in love! The place is right on Humboldt Street, which is on the not-so-well-defined border of Williamsburg and East Williamsburg.

I move in in 2 weeks, and absolutely can't wait. The photo at the top is the view from my private rooftop deck! My bedroom leads right out onto it. I am in love with you, Brooklyn. I can't wait until I am there with you.
