I realized I don't write anymore

When I was living in Israel, my job was a bit different. It was much more lax as opposed to "fast-paced" New York life. Everything in New York just has to be "fast-paced." It's hilarious sometimes. Almost every job I had applied for before landing this one had in the description "must be able to work in a fast-paced environment." How do people relax these days? Oh I know, by going to the gym and running fast and burning steam. I still like to listen to Kate Nash.

Wow it's been a long time since I last posted

Here's the first of many, although this is just something interesting:

"Amy Winehouse is set to launch her own make-up and fashion line.

In surely the most bizarre celebrity spin-off, the troubled singer has apparently agreed to meet with a company later this week to discuss creating her own line of products, to include things like hairspray and eyeliner, so fans can recreate her signature look.

'Amy's style has been copied by girls around the country and there's a lot of money to be made. It's a very distinctive look,' a friend tells The Sun. 'She wants to bring out a range of cosmetics and fashion products. There could be hairspray, head scarves, liquid eyeliner, perfume. 'All the things that are distinctive of her look.'

I love New York

Because only here can I bump into an acquaintance from Israel while working a booth at Fashion Week. Israelis are everywhere. In two days at the show I have spoken more Hebrew than in the past month. I miss Israel so much. I need at least a visit in upcoming months.

I don't really know what to say. I feel like the weeks have whizzed by in a blur, and my constant mantra is "busy, busy, busy." This gets me through the day sometimes. I find myself making only tentative plans and sometimes cancelling, which isn't really characteristic of me while multi-tasking plans is.

I'm trying to work on a new piece for my show. Something more focused and substantial. Something more recent that really comes from the me that went so far as to pack enough clothes to last a lifetime. While my old piece is still relevant - constantly wanting something I've never had - it's time to write something a bit more fresh. To tie in all of my experiences to now. So I'm trying. Although my new life here really doesn't allow for writing for pleasure. I'm working on it though. I hope to be able to let you all into my life again soon. xx
