What I enjoyed:

I enjoyed everything! But I especially loved hanging out in the trailer with everyone else and walking to films in the rain and changing into my Red Carpet Best in 6 min. and seeing good films. I loved going to the press room to see everyone. I loved being there and being a part of it.


What I “learned”:

I learned that everything goes very fast in the press world and that getting everything out is the main objective. But no one said having fun wasn’t allowed.


What surprised me:

The way the Red Carpet worked. I expected either this tidy procession of people who would walk down the carpet, like a ceremony. That wasn’t true. Or I expected a huge wave of people struggling to get closer to the stars and shouting questions which the stars would answer as they walked by. This was closer, but not completely accurate.


What I will miss:
I’ll miss coming at nine in the morning to a small group of friends who wanted to do the same thing.


Do you look at films differently now?

Yes, even though I never really thought about it. So, I’m not sure how . . .


Is the Teen Press a valuable project?

Ummm, DUH! You learn what it’s like to work as a working adult. It’s kind of like a second Career Week. Kind of.
