DAY 2.

Terrible tuesday.
I'm only calling this terrible tuesday because I didn't DO much and there wasn't much asked of us to do. I started by finishing up Anna's drawing. I scanned in her sketch, and put in the actual photograph of this bookcase she drew inspiration from and then emailed it to her. Laura taught her how to send for messengers, make packing labels, and some other office things.
At one point, Rose, one of the younger designers, brought up a box of things that needed to be filed in the library. Which was really hard and awkward because:
A: Their library is so darn big and its all so new that I don't know where a thing goes.
B: There are four designers that work in the library and they probably were laughing inside watching me struggle to find places for all these random things.
Every Tuesday and Thursday the company has vendors come in and they do a very informal presentation as people filter in and out for about an hour to meet them and hear a bit about the things they brought in. The vendor from Architex was running late today and came about 45 minutes late. I love vendor days now because that means free food. They always bring food for the firm. I don't know why, but I would assume its basically incentive and bribery. Otherwise, none of the designers would bother turning away from their busy busy work to listen about fabric. So I got free food today. YAAY.
And it rained HARD all day today. Just so so much rain. Anyway, I didn't do much for the rest of the day because Laura and I sit at the front desk, but there really weren't enough responsibilities for the both of us at all. I guess it was just a slow day, and there weren't enough things to do for two interns. And no one ever seemed to come get us to help out with things, even though we asked for things to do.

My mother met me after work, basically wet, and we went to grand central station for dinner on the way home. We were both really hungry. When we got back to the apartment, we went around and took pictures of all the flaws my 'newly renovated' temporary apartment has. I just get a kick out of bad craftsmanship. PICTURES TO COME. We also ran and got some groceries from the store across the street and got soaked. YAY.
