What are your aspirations?
I wanna go to Harvard and study journalism and political science.
On your way to being…
Christiane Amanpour.
Gilmore Girls, E01S02
Really?
Yes.Not Cokie Roberts? Not Oprah, Rosie, or one of the women from The View?
No.
Why do you wish to be Christiane Amanpour?
Well, I don’t wish to be her, exactly. I just want to do what she does.
Which is?
Um….travel, see the world up close, be part of something big.And in order to be part of something big, you have to be on TV? Why not lead the police on a high-speed chase? That’s a quicker way to achieve your goal.
Being on TV has nothing to do with it. Maybe I’ll become a journalist and write books and articles about what I see. I just want to make sure that I see….something.

You’ll notice that the debating team is also missing from my resume.
