Debt...

The best and worst part of my job is looking at all the new and fancy stuff that arrives each day. I am trying my best not to spend my $ on expensive stuff I would otherwise not be able to buy....but for some reason its all justified because under the brigh lights of the store anything goes. However, so far I have been a good girl and I am living off samples from La Mer, Chanel...etc, you get the idea.

In between helping customers choose the right skincare for their skin type, I spend a lot of my day chatting to staff and being a social butterfly trying to form relationships with my co workers. I have only had one run in and it was with a lady that clashes with everyone. So far, so good. And FYI the clash was about my hair. She didnt like me wearing it down (when clearly we are allowed to wear it anyway we like as long as its neat and tidy) I told her to mind her own business and because she was not my boss she had no say in what I do. She was put in her place and has not talked to me since. Although probably talked alot ABOUT me since!!

There are lots of girls that work there whom are genuinly nice people. I have organised a few lunch dates for the next week or so. And like any work place there are also people who are not so nice...but I mostly mind my own business and it seems to keep me out of trouble.

I think I am finally in a sleep/wake routine. I no longer feel lethargic each day (taking iron tablets may have something to do with this) and I am slowly starting to go to sleep at a reasonable hour. Hope everyone has a good weekend.

I think in any new job where your surrounded by gorgeous products, people and places its easy to get sweaped away and purchase things you other wise wouldnt buy, its important you just remember "what you need rather than want" you hold such a natural beauty and honestly don't need to apply many products to enhance it, as for your hair OMG wear it out that new cut is very glam it suits you to a Tee, that lady must have eye is her dariy air!

Stupid Bit$h, glad you put her in her place.

BTW I'm hunting for a sample sprayer of Allure Sensuelle ;) http://perfumestore.co.nz/images/Allure%20Sensuelle%20Perfume%20by%20Chanel%20for%20Women.jpg
but no one seems to give them away anymore. $110 for 30ml is ridiculous.

oh and good on you for not getting sucked in... just wait for the mid-year sales :P
