I'm sitting in yet again another Starbucks, drinking my second latte of the day. Caffeine is my best friend today: rough night, tough day.
Rough night because...I'm not sure why, but the neighbors loud Spanish tv did NOT help..it's been going on for some time - not during the day (when I'm not at home anyway) but at night I'm too tired to email the board about it. They would probably be able to fix the problem..Anyway, I should not whine but act..
And tough day: well, it's not too bad. The Escada Manager's Meeting is going on. We all had to introduce ourselves, so it gave some ground to connect with the interns of other departments It is so much easier to start a conversation with someone when you know a little bit about them!
The strategic part was interesting, but after about 45 minutes of product (VERY expensive pants, dresses, shirts) and fabric (HIGH end stuff) I ran! One can only take so much :) My head was spinning and I hid at my desk. Luckily I could do some stuff and wait for the 'sales techniques/behavior' part, which was nice.
But it is a tough day just because I miss home, I'm tired, and not really happy in my work. Maybe it is my perspective but it is sometimes as if I'm invisible..and the things I do..well, challenging is not part of the description.
BUT..but this day could still turn out pretty good..I'm meeting my roommate to go to Paradox, an interdenominal "small group" (30-100 people, depends if there's food or not..) for Christians who work in the fashion industry. It originates from 'Models for Christ', but now all professions in the industry are welcome. I'm curious! Look forward to meet new people!
Ah, well..life in NY is currently wet and cold (snow/rain combination) and dark..but it is still full of life and hope!
