Almonds are my weakness.

And so will be Chobani yogurt! SO much better than the crappy greek yogurt my ma tried to poison me with before I moved to nyc. haha. (britney, you should try it.)

I made a good mistake of going out on Saturday night with my old roomie, Sarah. I didn't get home until after 4 am. Guess who had to be at work by 7:45 am?! :(  i slept 2 hrs, through on some jeans and left. i was back home from the meeting by 10:35 am and slept until 3pm. When I woke up, it was a total time warp... it felt like 10 am, but sadly it was time to go back to work. The paying job is going well. It's so weird to be one of the few native English speakers. Wish I would've kept up on my Spanish. darn.

Waffles at 4 am are the best kind of waffles... even if you did acquire 2 idiot guys along the way! hey, they paid for our cab! haha.

There wasn't much to do at the internship today, but I feel like i'm making a good impression on the people i work with :) Coterie, a tradeshow, is coming up the week after fashion week and I get to work at one of our booths :) AWESOME! then again, the tradeshow is one reason why the showroom even has interns. i'm excited to get to talk to a lot of buyers and be apart of the whole ordeal. Just knocking out goals I set for myself left and right. haha.

The Dirty Show XI is rapidl approaching in Detroit!! I'm SO sad that I'm going to miss it this year! I recommend that ALL my MI pals go to it! The artwork is amazing, creative, and a good mix of art and smut. I've always loved that the show is during V-day weekend.


An article that gets me a little upset is Name Brands v. Knock-Offs. I really can't believe some of the responses. I guess it's all about image to some people, when in a sense, that's not what it's all about. I really disagree with the woman that says she'd buy a knock-off because the average consumer wouldn't know the different. I really don't believe that's true... especially in NYC, of all places. Knock-offs steal a designers creativity and hardwork. A lot goes into designing and to have someone steal your idea and make little changes to it is outrageous. This also hurts these businesses. I don't really want to go on a rant about fakes and how it's wrong to support them, but read the article.. it's interesting.
