GQ Mag Dude

I was out on my birthday in Campo Di Fiori, celebrating with some friends I have met from other schools here. We were making our rounds, getting some free shots. I get to talking to a random couple who is on their honeymoon. We talk more and it turns out they are from New York.

I asked if they had ever heard of Conde Nast, as one day I would like to work for the company, and the guys response is "I'm a staff writer for GQ."

GQ is a magazine I have been getting monthly for the past few years. I eventually want to work on the creative team for this magazine. Pretty much my dream job.

He jotted his e-mail down on a used bus ticket and his wife told me to e-mail her as she started out in Chicago working for Time-Out, and she could hook me up with an internship.

Best birthday present by far this year.
