Broken Hearts for Big Apples
Saturday, January 31st, 2009After years of hoping, dreaming, wishing, planning and doing A LOT of talking the time is finally nigh for another one of our own to take on the big city. And I mean THE big city. The lights and sights of New York have finally sufficiently entranced our beloved, wizened Kristin Jones and thus the story of her and Alchemy and the whirlwind affair that lay therein ends, sadly, here.
The years we’ve shared have been nothing short of incredible. The many, many, many highs and the lows that just never really seemed to exist. Following then leading, learning then inspiring, sparkling then shining bright; Kristin has been integral in creating, advancing and maintaining what Alchemy has become and will continue to be for years to come.
It is the opinion (I guess nowadays that would be IMHO, though humble it is not) of this blog artist that, of the hordes of hopefuls that have made the trek to the Big Apple, Kristin will be among the scant few that does NOT return in 6 months, broke, full of angst, and wondering where it all went wrong. Nay, we all know that she will indeed prosper; she will quickly find her place and make her mark; she will grow and impress and wow and mystify and exlpode with wondrous amazement! I say, my friends, this will not be the last we’ll see or hear of Miss Kristin Jones! And not one of us can say we ever expected any less from one of our most memorable and talented stylists and friends.
And with that we bid you fare well, Kristin. You know you will. We will miss you more than words will ever be able to express and though stylists will come and go here at Alchemy, there will always be the void that you leave behind, gaping there, reminding us how much will forever love the living shit out of you. Keep the heads a-rolling, champ! Great things… Great things.
