Its Fall!!

Hi!

Finally today was the first pretty day in 2 weekends!! There was a monsoon yesterday right as I was walking down 34th street to the AU bar, so typical, I was soaking wet!! But today made up for it because it was so pretty and a breezy 60 degrees! I met some new girls at dinner, they're from Georgia, Austin, Arizona, Croatia, and Germany. So, we decided to go to the park today.

Street Performers

Pretty Fall-ness!!

Update on Work: Models were in the house on tuesday, so that was an extra nice day at work! :) They laid off about 4 more people at work, so that wasn't fun. We've been working on post-market stuff, like cancels, and swaps and such. I listened in on a meeting that Kate, the Sr. Merchandiser, had to present the Summer 2010 Outlet line to the CEO of Nautica, that was interesting.

Hoping Dad is okay to be left home by himself so that Mom can come and visit! :)

25 days until Leigh, Allison, Allison and Ms. Barter come and I CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!

Halloween is coming this weekend...so Im sure there will be a freak show....i'll take good pictures, I promise.

Ciao!

At borders....

Webster's internet provider might be the worst ever. Me and Amanda(from UF) had to travel to Borders bookstore to get connected. Its freezing in here...it must be a tactic to keep us moochers out. It has almost worked....im on the verge of leaving.....brrrr

Didn't do much this weekend! Its been cold and rainy so it makes it difficult to go outside. Hopefully this week will prove to be better. Im hoping to start seeing some fall foilage soon. The all knowing internet said the peek would be the last 2 weeks of Oct and the First week of Nov. maybe ill have some good pictures soon.

ciao

Crazy busy week. Market opens on Sunday and we've been working until 10

almost every night. I sat in on the meeting with merchandising and design

tems on Monday where we went through every piece of the summer 2010 line

and "discussed" if there should be any changes or cancels. Afterwards, we

had to compile a list of all the changes called Notes and Changes and

update the line list(list of every piece in the season). On Weds. we had a

meeting with the sales team. Alot of the sale's team works from home or on

location so they all flew in for the meeting to see the 2010 line. Again

we has Notes and Changes to update. On Tuesday I helped the Sr.

Merchandiser put together 2 showrooms. Its been really hetic

but I've learned alot and really like it.

I saw 2 shows this weekend! Memphis and Rock of Ages. I loved Memphis and I liked Rock of Ages. Still fun though!

Here is a picture of some people from work. We had a company dinner and I got to go along with them!

Kate- Sr. Merchandiser is to the left of me and Jodie my boss is to the right of me.

Im Backkkkk!

Hey!

I've been busy. Sorry for the disappearing act. I went to visit Evan in DC this weekend.

So, to catch you up since last time.

I saw Hamlet on Broadway....half because I like that play and I've never seen it live and half because Jude Law stars in it....ok...maybe 3/4 Jude Law. But anyhow, it was fantastic! Jude(we're totally on a first name basis) was amazing and played Hamlet so comically it was perfect. Afterwards I waited around the stage door and got his picture and autograph. He thanked me for coming to see the show. I was just glad I could fit him in my busy schedule. haha yeah right.

Here are some pictures of my dorm room.....

I went to visit Evan this weekend in DC. Rode the Vamoose Bus and got there in pretty good time, only about 4 hours. We went to dinner Friday night with a couple of his friends from work and then on Saturday went to "Taste of Bethesda" a food festival in a town close to his. That's where the pictures are from. Sat. night we went to his friends house warming party and watched the game and ate a ton of food. I had a really good time!!!

Everyone is coming to visit soon. Can't wait!!!!

Ciao,

Tess
