so today was my last day of working @ banana. i have to say, it was probably one of my better work experiences, and definitely my best summer job ever. but then i can only compare to what, 3 other jobs? (we have yet to see whether princeton review is good. plus, it's not a summer thing) anyways, so it was good. only problem w/ retail is the lack of hours i get, but it's not so bad. plus i get to find out what clothes go on sale early, so i get first dibs. plus, dressing up people in clothes that make them really look good...it's an awesome feeling. i doubt boys would understand, but i think girls would. it's like when you're searching for a prom dress, and you know when you've finally found 'the dress'. you put it on, and it makes you look so good. i LOVE giving people that feeling at banana, esp. when i get to dress them from head to toe. luckily people here are rich enough to let me do that. :) dont get me wrong, working in retail isnt all fun and games. my store manager is one of those REALLY aggressive types that wants me to ask about the banana card to every soul on the face of this earth. i'm not into that. my other managers are pretty kool, more laid back and stuff. but when the store is doing poorly, when there's too many returns and no sales, it gets ugly. for instance, today. when i left, we only had +600. goal for the day was 3000. yea...we got so many freaking returns.

anyways, so i'm really glad i worked there this summer instead of victoria's secret. and i plan on going back to banana over thanksgiving for a few days, so i can earn some moola. probably work 'black friday' (day after thanksgiving), and maybe one more day, we'll see. family friends are coming up to NYC/NJ this thanksgiving, so i dont wanna work too much.

returning to school in 5 days.

o, btw, congrats to shawn for 'taking the jump'. hahahahaha. you got over your wussiness! YAY!
