Last week almost gave me the balls to quit my job. After a fabulous Monday the rest of the week was so awful I couldn't imagine working there a day longer. The intern who was hired (I thought) to help me was instead doing my jobs in the office, and I was in turn out running around (mostly in the rain to find whatever it is she couldn't). When I finally decided to ask my boss if I had any authority on this 'princess with an attitude,' my boss nearly blew a fuse telling me that 'NO! You are supposed to be working TOGETHER!' Little does she know this girl doesn't do or want to do anything that requires more effort than matching her shoes to her outfit.
So, on the verge of quitting and hating the 'tough' life in the big apple I decided to make some changes. I've researched a variety of clubs and organizations, and I have chosen a writing club to join. It will basically be an excuse to write one of these posts, hopefully within the next few weeks. I spent hours looking for jobs and finally found a few worth applying for. Turns out I wasn't off my rocker, because I actually got an interview with a Children's wear, high-end, design firm today. Not sure if I'm going to get the job, but she did ask me to send some more sketches, so that's positive. I also managed to run into/ found out a few other friends of mine, mostly x-ballerinas (like me) have moved to the city! Maybe these are all signs life is going to turn around?....
As for Halloween...I dressed up as Holly Golightly from 'Breakfast at Tiffany's.' It was a very successful costume and a fun night...rainy, but fun. Tonight I'm watching the Saints game with a friend from home, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a Saints v. Colts Superbowl! Up is the way to go....and if that means I need to get high, well that might just happen soon too...
