In other news, I've accepted a creative writer position with My Genesis magazine, a magazine that is based in Atlanta and New York and is dedicated to the exposure of driven individuals who have broken barriers, eliminated obstacles, and achieved incredible career, personal, and entrepreneurial success. I'm excited about getting the chance to write more and to see my work in print!
Now on to the exciting part, the thing I've been excited about for an entire month. Attending the Late Night with Jimmy Fallon Show. I managed to get tickets for the Tuesday, November 2nd taping and went with two of my friends, Sharrie and Marisa. We arrived at 30 Rock to pick up the tickets (which I found out that they were first come first serve...and we ended up at the end of the long line of audience members). It didn't matter if we were the last people to get admitted as long as we got to go. As we were waiting in line, about 15 of us were pulled aside and asked if we would like to have "band bench" seats and go on stage with The Roots. Of course we accepted...it meant TV time and getting to meet Jimmy and the band! We had an amazing time in the audience. Jimmy's guests were Zach Galifianakis (from the Hangover) who was super hilarious and there promoting his new movie Due Date. Up next was Danny Boyle who directed the movie 127 hours starring James Franco. The movie, based on a true story about a mountain climber in Utah who becomes trapped under a boulder while canyoneering alone and resorts to desperate measures in order to survive. It looked so intense and amazing! Then our fifteen moments of fame came as we went on stage to dance behind The Roots and Kid Cudi. We even got to talk to Jimmy! It was a stellar night and something I will never forget! If you missed the show, you can check out the Late Night with Jimmy Fallon clip here and see us on tv!

Steve: "Why didn't you just carry them and wear sneakers like everyone else?"
