On Thursday when I went into work, Betsy was still sick and Lea wasn't coming in until 1 so I was pretty much on my own! It was stressful but exciting. The reps had me checking in/out a TON of samples, answering phones, running the sample sale, taking pics of samples..needless to say pretty hectic so I was thankful when Lea came in and was able to help. We were doing all of that for the whole day pretty much with a few odds and ins thrown in. It was very exciting to be kinda just thrown in and figure out how to do everything on our own, great learning experience!
After work, Lea and I ran uptown to see Sex and the City 2! This movie + in NYC= perfect! And even more thrilling...a ton of the theaters were sold out so we had to get one way up town..little did I know that when we came up from the subway we were right in front of Julliard and Lincoln Center!! I freaked! Growing up dancing and hearing about Julliard and the American Ballet and NY Ballet Companies performing at Lincoln Center and finally seeing it! It was BEAUTIFUL! But we were running late for the movie and it was opening day so we ran in and shockingly (I guess since it was just us two) we got seat right in the middle towards the front!Sooo the movie! It didn't get great reviews but that's b/c critics don't do girl movies I decided. and the fashion....UNBELIEVABLE!!!! and SJP is a major person with Halston now so she was reppin it so good and she looked gorgeous! They wore so many gowns; every outfit was a show stopper.
Today, we closed at 2 so I worked on some stuff for them on the comp that pretty much took the whole time. Then I got out at 1:30 and decided to go exploring! Betsy told me I should go down to Greenwich Village. So I took the subway down there...the subway is kinda confusing. So I got off one stop wrong but I just decided to walk up. I got out at 14th Street Union Sq which has Filenes Basement, DSW, Nordstrom Rack...basically a bunch of amazing discounted dept stores but I wasn't really in the mood to shop...aka I have no money haha. But I walked all the way up and literally wandered around Greenwich Village for 3 hours and loved it! It's so quaint and beautiful! I now know where I will be living when I move to the city later in life...Memorial Day coming up and a ton of beaching and boating will be in the future :)
