Past 2 weeks.

The past two weeks have been very hectic for me. I started my new job at Aldo in the accessories department. I love that place. I have a feeling my paychecks won't leave the store. So the days that I am not at my internship, I am at work. It is very overwhelming, because there is nights I'm getting off of work at 12am and nights I am leaving my internship at 7pm and 8pm. It is very overwhelming. This past 2 weeks we have just started shooting for the January issue. So lately I've been waking up extra early to do pick-ups from designers and then heading to the office and getting off late. More so these past two weeks have consisted of processing a lot of pick ups and packaging more shoots but dealing with less returns. We had the editor of chief filming in the closet this past week so organizing was also another major thing. These past two weeks consisted of more work and less sleep but this is the life of being a grown up, I guess.

Weeks 5-6

This past week at my internship has not been that rather busy because we have not started working on our next shoot. This next shoot does not start the week after next. We have been rather low on pick up runs and however I did do about maybe two this week, one I can remember being picking up from Prada and taking it to a shoot we had in Soho. More so, this week has been more an involvement with getting our closet organized, might I add its gorgeous. Every time someone comes in our closet, they are always raving on how great it looks and how easy it is to find things. We have been told that we are a great batch of interns because of our organizational skills. We had our jewelry out on the table at a point of time, and we have condensed so much that we were able to put them in our incubators. We did a lot of returns on our handbags and clutches so we have more room and everything is a lot more organized, as well as the hats and shoes. It is very important that we keep our closet organized because, we have over 10,000 items in our closet that includes costume and fine jewelry, shoes, sunglasses, hats. scarves, tights, handbags, belts, etc. and it is so easy for something to get misplaced. Overall, this internship has helped so much with my organizational skills and administrative skills as well.
