A simple 'hello,' sweet smile is good way to
make friends

At my first day of work, I finally got to meet Lauren Brown, the
entertainment editor I've been corresponding with over e-mail and the phone.
Like the rest of the CosmoGIRL! staff and interns, Lauren and I had an instant
connection and became friends right on the spot.
Speaking of friends ... American Idol runner up Justin Guarini stopped
by for a meet and greet within the first hour I was at work. In an effort to be
outgoing, I decided to make our picture together interesting and fun. "So,
Justin," I said as we stood there. "Let's pretend we're best
friends."
That being said, we energetically wrapped our arms around each other in a huge
hug and laughed for the camera. Probably one of my cutest pics with a celeb and
definitely one of my least shy moments.
