FINALS
so ironic for me to write about finals on POST college project but i must.
oh gradschool why can't you be more like undergrad???
in undergrad i had a fabulous study nook in King Library. it was glorious and i could watch the squirrels and snow and wander aimlessly during study breaks. Food was allowed and was availble for purchase. it was heaven.
now i am stuck at the words LOUDEST starbucks because i cannot bring my coffee into the library and cannot leave my things unattended because they WILL get stolen. just like my id - i did not blog about this saga because it was too tragic- which has been found and i can return to the rec!!!
Even with my hotpink earplugs in (can you see them above they are a life saver!!!), i can tell you every problem the people at the table next to me have with their co-worker (she is not present) and what they are going to do to get her fired... The "boss" just told them their plan will not work because it involves falsifying records and that it is acceptable to take your PTO when your child is sick... SERIOUSLY. oh wait i just found out all these people are managers...
would it be rude for me to ask them to A. lower their voices, B. LEAVE or C. stop being so LAME
In other news it is getting colder here in va, no snow in the forecast, but colder is nice. Yesterday, a large brown box showed up at my house from room.it.up. i won't be opening it until Christmas so you too will have to wait to know what is inside. Today a brown box arrived from Kate Spade, i will not get my hopes up this is for me (last year i did and was disappointed).
update on the managers meeting: the "boss" will not be checking his blackberry over his break, he keeps referring to it as leave. all others are encouraged to call and message him but he will not be responding. he followed this up by saying he needs to know if the others make any important decisions they need to speak to him first. (this sounds like M.SCOTT) boy do i not envy any of these people.
hope you all are being more productive than i!

ombre hair?
do you get who what wear daily e-mails? if so then you saw the ombre hair e-mail blast that just went out.
your thoughts?
I don't know about this trend. in middle school my computer teacher had this look and we called her rainbow head. granted hers was a peroxide mess going from dark to white the comparison is there. as a fashionable middle schooler i know this look was WRONG.
however, i do think that done correctly ombre hair can look very natural. but agree with many of the comments on who what wear daily that this is not a new trend nor is it fashion forward (my hair naturally does this ever fall/winter as i let my summer sun kissed/chlorine lighten hair grow out).
maybe celebrities are forgoing their highlights to sympathize with the economic downturn...
