Just a bit down the road from my apartment is “Historic Georgetown.” I only wish I could afford to live there, or even dream of being able to afford living there! But I love it nonetheless.Today we finished journalism “boot camp,” celebrating with a scavenger hunt around the city. One of my list items was a picture in front of the “Exorcist Steps,” the narrow, steep stairs made famous by William Blatty’s 1973 film The Exorcist.

Little-known fact: The Exorcist was the first scary movie I watched as a kid that didn’t give me nightmares.

So Georgetown, full of swanky shops, swarming streets and spooky steps … and don’t forget my favorite:

Fake purses! I bought my very first off-the-cart bag, and I couldn’t be more proud.

It’s actually funny how many people ask me if it’s real. Maybe one day I’ll strike it rich and I’ll be able to afford real Chanel purses and a brownstone in Georgetown.

Well, a girl can dream.
