new york is absolutely gorgeous today. the sky seems endless even in this city of endless cement streets and towering buildings.. nature's beauty still prevails. i'm taking a day off work to sit and work on some stuff for my grad school apps.. i'm glad to say i've finally wrote a complete personal statement i don't completely despise. we'll see.. i think the whole reason why this process has been incredibly hard for me is because i'm a control freak. yes. i admit that i am a control freak, and while the whole admissions process is beyond my control.. this very important piece of the application (the personal statement) is very much under my control.
hence. stress. probably unnecessary, but it's there anyways.
so i should only be working t/th/f a week which isn't so bad, but the other day my boss kiki asked me to work a little more this week and next week, and weekend before the show. i know this whole idea of working for free baffles many people.. and even me at times.. so i can imagine the idea of working even more for free making absolutely no sense.. but i said yes. first off, she buttered me up for it by saying how incredibly helpful been, and i've never been a sore ear for nice words. and secondly one of the biggest reasons i took this internship was to be able to work the show.
the show being calvin klein's spring runway show. it's so big that it's one of the only ones during fashion week that have exhibit twice (the other one being ralph lauren).
so needless to say, i probably took on a little unnecessary work but i think in the end it'll be worth it.
i've been forgetting how tiring new york.. or the working world is. especially in this city that seems to have endless amounts of energy, i sometimes feel like i don't have enough.. or at least it takes me about 3 cups of coffee to even compare. this isn't too good for my caffine habit.
