Day 1 and 2

So yesterday was the big day! Got there @ 9 am sharp... first task was organize a dest that had tons of shit on it... and they loved it... but by the end of the day there was a box of shoes one it... not just one box of shoes like what they come in... like one big box with many shoes in it... grrr... but hey it wasn't too bad... because they made it seem as if that was my desk... and having a desk as an intern i think would be pretty big! I also got to wrap beads in fabric, get trims & buttons from the spring collections from the production floor, grab some swatches to match some fabrics and make sequins... yes yes MAKE sequins... i took bigger sequins... about an inch to an ihcn and a half sequin, color them, scratch them up and then cut smaller ones out from that one.. and there were 4 different sizes... from about a 1/4 in to about 1/8 in circle =/... but for the most part it was pretty cool... i work for about 9 different ladies who get to boss me around... lol... but they all seem pretty cool, and the fun part is that most of them have english acccents... love it!
Today... did some more of the same... lol... def sat there making more sequins... and wrapped more beads... which sounds like no fun... but is rather interesting seeing the different ways to come up with unique embelishments! did my first 3 errands... picked up some beading samples and aplique fusing... then my favorite was a cupcake run =) it was amazing... right after lunch one of the ladies suggested that she wanted a cupcake and one by one so did everyone around... then i voulenteered myself to go pick them up... heck yeah i wanted one too!!! and the best part of it was the name of the store where i got them... are you ready for this... because its ingenious: Burgers & Cupcakes... really you ask?!?! REALLY!!! now like one of my b-fries said... 'only if they had beer would that be like the ultimate heaven!' -but seriously!!!! did meet some of the other interns today... but luckily for me... one only works 2 days a week and one leaves in a week... why do you ask is that lucky for me... well as much as im a fan of working for free(note sarcasim)... the more i am there the more i can help and show how i can bust my ass and the more they will fall in love with me and want to hire me on the spot after graduation.... well atleast that is how it goes in my pretty litte dreams! but hey... you never know right!!!

all in all so far so good... now just gotta get used to this cold thing.... brrrr 43 degrees this am was noooooo fun... but hey... like one of my favorites say.... 'im in hawaii, sure it looks alot like north caroline, but really its hawaii'(gotta love Mr. Tosh!!!)

till another day....peace out cub scout!
