This New Year, not only did we usher in a new President; we said hello to what we hope will be a fresh start for us all. Maybe it’s because I just graduated from college and I’m entering the work force full-throttle, or maybe there’s just something about 2009, but this feels like a monumental year. This February will be a month of firsts:
- Attending the WSA Show in Las Vegas next month. I’ve never been to Vegas, never gambled, and never been to a fashion trade show!
- Working for ShoeHunting.com as the community manager (and attending the WSA Show on their behalf, in addition to representing Shoe Smitten)
- Getting to chat with David Froment, shoe designer, over dinner at the WSA Show.
- Starting a blog with Mark Schwartz, shoe designer and artist.
- Spending a week in Boston next month, meeting Damien and the rest of the team from ShoeHunting.com, and meeting a few of my Twitter friends.
- Beginning an internship as a newsletter writer for The Shoe Club.
And all the while maintaining my sanity! I’d say that, if all of this is happening in just one month, 2009 truly is a year of change. What changes or opportunities have surfaced for you?
