Angie the Rock Star

You may remember me telling you about my extraordinary friend Angie, who is applying for The Best Job in the World.  I am pleased to announce that, out of over 34,000 applicants around the globe, Angie has been selected as a Top 50 finalist.  


Repeat.  34,000 applied.  50 were chosen.  In other words, Angie is in the top 0.15% of savvy, creative, adventurous travelers on planet earth.  That is a BIG DEAL!

Knowing that the 50 shortlisted candidates would be announced Monday, I was furiously refreshing the site on my iPhone.  When the list finally popped up, I scrolled through...no Angie in the first row (no biggie).  No Angie in the second row (starting to worry).  No Angie in the third row (uh oh).  And then, like a beacon in the night, her smiling face and bikini-clad body appeared.  OK that sounded creepy, but that's what she looks like in the picture.  I fell out of my chair, screamed, and proceeded to stalk her via phone, text and Twitter until she called me back.


SO - as Angie works on essays and I start packing my bags for a trip to Australia to visit, YOU can help by voting!  If you're so inclined You simply must visit islandreefjob.com/angie every day for the next three weeks and vote for her!  Have a Gmail and a work address?  Vote twice.  :)

GO ANGIE!  
xoxo
