Coffee Shops and Bars

Holly — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 20:01:27 +0000

My project this term is designing a coffee shop. I love it because this is the type of interior design I want to do. I want to design hotels and restaurants. I have been looking all over for some interesting Metal Bar Stools, yes I know I should have had this done by now, but really it’s more that I keep changing my mind. First I wanted Wood Bar Stools then I only wanted lounge seating, now I want metal and I still may change my mind by Friday.

I found this stool on the bar-stool-store.com and I really do like it. It’s metal and it just makes me happy. Other then that it looks a lot like the wooden ones I choose. They are actually wood and metal, but I kept thinking that I needed something else. I was going to add an area outside, but I didn’t draw it in, maybe I could use this set as a suggestion for an outdoor space. I’ll have to think about that. At least I have found some options and I think a site I will bookmark so that I can use them again, either for myself or a client.

My Last Week Of School

Holly — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:57:31 +0000

I’m excited, and very nervous. This week is my last week of classes, not just for the term, no I will finally have my bachelors degree and I’m so happy! I’m not looking forward to the job hunt, but at least I won’t have to work around a school schedule anymore. I’m also excited because I can stop spending money on gas to drive an hour and a half to classes.

I’m nervous because now I really need to find work. I’ve been thinking about starting my own interior design business, but I really want to work in the field under someone for a while first. I know I know what I’m doing, but my main weakness is I always second guess myself. I’m sure my classmates see this all the time as I’m always asking them about things that I know, but just don’t think I do. I’m working on it and hopefully it will improve as time goes on.

Right now I’m just concentrating on finishing up some projects and getting my outfits together for the presentations. I’m not as stressed out as I normally am and that’s nice, but at the same time it’s weird. Oh well I guess I’m now getting use to it!

Just 2 More Weeks

Holly — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:32:32 +0000

If you read this blog a lot you know that I have had many many issues with Baker Collage over the years. Well, I’m happy to say I will no longer have these problems as I will be done with them in 2 weeks! I’m excited I’ll have my degree and hopefully I will be able to find a job. I also am looking forward to never going back to baker again!

Yep, I’m excited and looking forward to life after Baker, now the only thing I have to do is get a hold of someone at career services so that I can actually get my degree, wish me luck with that as I have yet to hear back from anyone when I try to contact them. It’s sad really.

I Need A New Car or Lights

Holly — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 20:42:47 +0000

A few weeks ago I bought new light assemblies for the front of my car, I love them and I’m happy I bought them as I could not see to drive anywhere. It was really bad. I noticed a difference right away and being able to see is wonderful. Now though I am finding that my tail lights need to be replaced for the same reasons and more that my headlights needed it. There is water in them and now the lights keep acting up. I’ve been pulled over twice because of it and I’m tired of it, really I am. I have been looking at different types of lights for my car, I really like some of the custom tail lights I have found but I’m not sure if I want to spend that kind of money on a 2001 Grand Prix that I may get rid of in a year anyway.

I know I need to get something for the car because I just can not keep getting pulled over every time I go somewhere. It’s really very annoying and I just don’t want to deal with it anymore. The sad part is that I have only been pulled over twice before this and both times were because they had my car tagged when it shouldn’t have been. I’m a good driver and getting a ticket for stupid stuff is just not working for me. Granted I did only get one ticket this month, but I could get more if it’s not fixed. I just hope its not electrical because I just don’t have the money to fix it.

Maybe I’ll get lucky and win the lottery or something in the next week. Then I can afford a new car and I won’t have to worry about buying taillights. Too bad with my luck it wont happen.

I Had A Job Interview

Holly — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 17:47:45 +0000

I finally after looking for how many years had a job interview. Yep I’m this excited about one interview. It’s for a local furniture store and hopefully I will get it as I think it would be a fun place to work and I would learn a lot. Even if I don’t get it, I’m excited because this is a sign that things are starting to get better. Companies are replacing people and not just getting rid of the position.

I am keeping my fingers crossed about the job, but at the same time I know there are many people out there who have more experience then me looking for work too. It all just depends on what the owner thinks of me and if they think I will do a good job or not.

My First Good Valentines Day

Holly — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 13:45:49 +0000

I knew a few months ago that tomorrow would be a good valentines day for me and I have to send thanks to the people at NASCAR. Yes, the first race is tomorrow, on valentines day and I’m loving it! I have something to do and it’s fun. Of course this year I do have a guy to spend it with, we are not serious enough yet for me to push for anything on valentines day, but being able to spend it together will be a nice and very welcome change. It won’t be romantic by any means as there will be screaming children and drunks in the background, but that’s okay. I really don’t ask for much as I’m happy with what I can get.

What are your plans for valentines day?
