So today was a pretty stressful day at school. I just don't like being so negative at work because then I'm in a bad mood ALL day. Today, it was especially hard to stay POSITIVE!!
So I haven't talked about my part of the job hunt much... I have a friend whose family owns Magpie's Gifts. I was really hoping to talk to her about potentially learning from her and getting some retail experience. However, she is 7+ months pregnant, so she has slightly more important things to deal with right now. I did get to attend her cute baby shower! Believe it or not, we didn't have much of a chance to chat since she spent most of the time opening her mounds of baby gifts! So because of the bad day, I decided to do something about it! I asked Ally to have dinner on Wednesday. We can catch up, and also I can tell her about our future plans! Hopefully, by Wednesday I will have a lead. I wouldn't even mind just getting the chance to learn about Magpie's or shadow Ally. They may not have room on the schedule for a paid employee, but I'm willing to do almost anything!
If you haven't been to Magpie's, it is a super cute gift boutique. They have 3 locations. One in Bellaire, (as mentioned earlier in our blog) Sugar Land, and the newest one in Cypress. If we wound up opening a store near by one of these stores, I'd love to create a relationship with the store. They have a huge customer base that I'd love to attract as well. Callie and I talked today about offering some kind of discount if they are referred by Magpie's. Just an idea.
I just know that I need a change. Callie and I just need to get through the school year, or at least until Spring Break!
