So, now that I've been out of school for a solid four weeks, I'm losing my mind to boredom. There are only so many delicious meals I can make that take a whole afternoon to prepare. One day I was so bored, I spent 4 hours making homemade pasta noodles, sauce from scratch, homemade meatballs and bruschetta. I haven't really been doing my best to find a job, but I have an interview tomorrow at Macy's and am hoping that goes well because this girl needs to make some money. I think I may even want two jobs for the remainder of the summer so I can make bank and save up before possibly relocating and finding a "real" job (that is one that utilizes my degree/s and is permanent/semi permanent). For now anything will do as long as I have substantial hours and am slightly above minimum wage. I had a most delightful weekend in the city this past weekend (minus the call from my sister berating me for using a spoonful of body scrub). My bf was able to come in for the night on Saturday and I made a wonderful meal of salmon over penne with white wine, chile creme sauce, mini meatballs in marinara sauce, and a caprice salad. Later we ordered in some delicious Crif Dogs (seeing as how between the two of us we consumed a bottle of champagne and two bottles of vino- I was so hungover early the next morning).
Emma and I had a romantic night in Friday before my bf arrived. We watched the sunset and several documentaries about the Russian Ballet.
Dinner for deux on the roof top terrace... I'm such a nerd
I got a bit buzzed while cooking and waiting for the bf to arrive... it was a sloppy presentation.
My week has been fairly lame since Monday. I've done extensive online searching for jobs both in the area, and in NYC (just getting a feel for what's available in my line of study). Today I was looking through my "work" clothes drawer (you know, the ugly ass pants you would only wear to work), and decided to do a little alteration on my fave seersucker pants from Abercrombie. It took seriously a total of 30 minutes to transform these bad boys from drab wide legs to sexy skinnys. I was quite pleased with my result:
The wide leg version... don't mind my homely, just-washed morning fro ;p
And the skinny version, TaDa! Don't mind my afternoon fro either (fucking humidity).
Yeah, there's just no winning with my hair in this weather. I'm a terribly boring individual this week. Let's hope next week leads to something new and exciting... preferably a job and money.
