Job Tips

By Noelle Llewellyn - the MTV PR Queen

*Do what you love: Don't underestimate the importance of being happy at work. People who are happy at their jobs are also awesome at their jobs.

*Try everything: To know what you don't want to do is just as beneficial as what you do want to do. There's nothing wrong with figuring that out!

*Send a thank-you note: If somebody goes out of their way to help you, definitely send a note. People remember when you don't thank them.

*Stay inspired, be prepared: I always keep a notebook on me- you never know when an idea will strike.

*Go above and beyond: For one job I applied for, instead of submitting the typical three pages of writing samples, I sent about 15. It was obvious I really wanted it. (And yes, she got the job!)

As people put the usual 'get in shape' tasks on their 2013 New Year's resolutions,
I found these quotes that just made my heart happy. Enjoy!


Celebs Admit: Staying in Hollywood Shape Sucks

"I kill myself. I put in a minimum of an hour and a half, five days a week. There's no magic; there's no fairy dust. It's not good genes." (Gwyneth Paltrow)

"Your body is your office... Whenever everyone else is having pizza and beer, you kinda have to have the celery stick." (Zoe Saldana)

"I lived on kale and dust to play Catwoman. The catsuit's unforgiving, man. It took three of us just to get it on!" (Anne Hathaway)

"I hate working out. I wouldn't run if there was a fire. I wouldn't run anywhere. I hate running." (Olivia Munn)

Titanic Homage

My birthday is one week before Christmas, and it is also prime time to show something that entire families could enjoy, especially before the next Oscar judging.  I think back to how most of my December 19 birthday parties were centered around a Holiday blockbuster debut. Restaurants tended to be booked for Christmas parties, so it was easy to ask friends to just meet me at a movie theater and do dessert after.

I have vivid memories of seeing Titanic for the first time. My girlfriends and I squealed over the Jack's romantic lines, Rose's wardrobe, and then shared tissue as we cried at its conclusion. They were great times that I still cherish today... on my 30th Birthday.

Why our hearts still go on for Titanic
By Emma Rosenblum for Glamour 

The December 1997 blockbuster is getting a major re-release, and if you're near, far or, really wherever you are (hi, Celine!), you'll get sucked back in. Here's why…

Once in a generation, a single movie shapes the way millions of women look at love forever: An Affair to Remember, Annie Hall, Sixteen Candles, and, for us, Titanic.

No matter which Housewife is having a meltdown, if you see that enormous fake ship pop up on TNT or TBS, you will turn to it, you will watch it to the bitter end and you will cry.

Titanic, after all, was the epic romantic drama of the formative years of everyone between the ages of 25 and 35. (Say it with me, ladies:" I'll never let go, Jack!") It introduced us to the idea of hot nude portraiture; it solidified our lifelong weakness for Leo (no matter how many supermodel hearts that guy may break); and it sold us on to the idea of soulmates.

With Titanic in 3-D out in theaters, a whole generation of girls will learn the joys of this movie. I'm sure when I see it, I'll feel nostalgic.. and I'll probably still be pissed that Rose threw the necklace overboard. Come on, Rose! Think of your grandkids' college funds.
