Mon-Thursday

Monday:

Nothing exciting. Started watching Gossip Girl from the beginning with the roomies- were addicted. I read in a magazine that Jennifer Aniston gets her body from doing 250 crunches everyday. Sooooo I'm doing 300 and leg lifts. Ill let you know how it goes.

Tuesday:

At Bendel's the handbag designers set the color story for the next 5 months, 5 months in advance. So these boards are filled with color swatches, leather, fabric, magazine cutouts, prints outs, and anything that inspires color. Today, I had to copy every article and make a new set of boards for the sanctuary(the large merchandising room filled with boards) because the merchandising team wanted the designers boards and they couldn't have them. Ahhh the life of an intern.

Wednesday:

The first REALLY hot day in NYC. Everyone was complaining but its still not as hot as NC. Nothing exciting happened at work. Actually nothing happened until 3:00 when i started helping Amy put things together for the Thursday meeting. Didn't leave work until 6:30, which is the latest so far. BUT I did go to the big J.Crew sale in Rockefeller Center after work. It was so hot and crazy in there that when I took my vest off I had sweat stains on my shirt, all while I'm trying clothes on in front of a mirror because I didn't want to wait in the 25 person dressing room line. It was a mess but I got some great stuff. For dinner I cooked a huge stir fry with eggplant, onion, yellow and green squash, tomatoes, bell pepper, and sun dried tomatoes. Delicious. After, Katie and I went late night to the grocery store and got back a little late. No gossip girl. Crunches, shower, and bed.

Thursday:

Helped Amy pick out materials for the meeting at 11:00. Meeting lasted until 1:30 and it was pretty painful. Tomato sandwich for lunch. Ate half a jar of nutella after work. Not kidding. Then Katie and I went to NYU bookstore (so I could exchange a hoodie), Nordstrom Rack (returning something), Forever, and Kmart. Amber, if you're wondering, the only thing I bought was shampoo. Came home, cooked dinner, and watched gossip girl with the roomies. Painted my nails (yes my hand nails!) while I skyped Bekah. Did my crunches, showered and went to bed. I feel like such a boring person.

Friday:

Here I am, at work. This morning when I got out of the subway a crazy cracked out homeless man was annoying an MTA worker when he saw me and started screaming, "LOOK AT THOSE LEGS! LOOK AT EM! JUST LOOK AT THOSE LEGS! YOU KNOW WHY WOMEN SHOW OFF THEIR LEGS? FOR MOSQUITOES!!!! WOMEN SHOW THEIR LEGS SO MOSQUITOES CAN EAT THEM!!!!!!" over and over. The escalator is total of 3 stories(?) and I could still hear him at the bottom screaming about legs and mosquitoes when Id exited the subway. This, my friends, is why I wear my sunglasses 24/7 in the subway. Please note: if this was NC I would have turned around and told him to f off but, its not.

Right now Candace is on a plane to NYC for the weekend! I'm so excited!
