I’ve been thinking up “business” type outfits and getting ready to work on my closet (you know, whip it into shape) and I think I’m good to go here. I’ve got a few tops and at least one nice pair of pants that actually fit. I’ve got a few pieces of decent jewelry (that doesn’t even have any skulls on it!) and I might actually learn to brush my hair this century.
Why all the fuss? Because I start college Monday. I start at a technical computer school that provides me with not only a ton of information but also the connections to get a job when I leave the school. Hence - I need to “put on the suit and act as if” (I love that statement - wish I knew who said it first).
I don’t have any extra money for Cartier or Patek Philippe brand watches - but I totally have a fake-Rolex that my husband brought me from Iraq! Does that count? I also shop at the Exchange at places like Ross for name-brand stuff. I might like “the labels” but I certainly don’t like the real stuffs’ prices.
Hubby got my Mac all set up in the “guestroom/Christine’s office” so all I need is a chair (and a bulletin board to keep track of those pesky assignments both from school and from the internet).
I’m quite excited. I’m also quite nervous. Wish me luck!
