Where should I begin?
Here, I guess.
Right after I got back to New York, I found out that my sister was going to be on this crazy, new trivia show that had the biggest prize in game show history. The rules of the show were really hard to understand because it was supposed to be a combination of Who Wants to be a Millionaire and Big Brother. One of the things I really respect about Hayley is that her success is so apparent. Long lost acquaintances from high school were even contacting me, just to ask if it was really her they had seen on TV last night.
I didn't feel jealousy, in the least, but I wonder what it would be like to be so explicitly accomplished, even to strangers - and to have fans! I feel like I'm pretty satisfied with the things I've been up to in my life, especially in the last year or so, but I wonder what it would be like for people I went to high school with to be amazed at something I did. I feel like if I do something cool, I might just blog about it or giggle about it when I'm walking down the street and I really treasure that relationship with myself (lame!), but I think that a lot of people wonder what it would be like to have some recognition on TV or in their industry.
