Interview Preparations!

This morning, one of my flat mates, Shandi, and I got up to "practice" the tube stops going to our interview. It takes 40 minutes to get to where we will be working! We got to see the building where Professional Beauty magazine is located and it is HUGE! Very intimidating... and exciting. When we got back from the practice journey, the other flat mates joined us and we bravely ventured to Oxford Street. Oxford Street houses some of the best shopping in London and since it was a Bank Holiday today, it was crowded to say the least. After popping in to H&M and grabbing a quick bite, we headed towards Primark, which is basically "Forever 21 on Crack" (thank you Linden for that quote). It is super cheap and super stylish and SUPER PACKED~!!! It was hot, steamy and I felt very claustrophobic. Needless to say, we didn't last long in Primark before deciding to come back and try later. 

We arrived home around 4:00 pm  and then went up to CAPA to print off clips and CVs (more commonly known as resumes in the States) to take with us to our interviews. Then we stopped off at Sainsburys to do a bit of grocery shopping. Now we are chillin out in the flat and preparing for our interviews tomorrow!

Will report back with interview results...

  1. Hey Claire--since it is 6:00 p.m. here, I am assuming you are snuggled in your bed preparing to be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for your interview! I know you will amaze them with your wit and charm--we'll be anxiously waiting to hear your results. I am headed to Brodmerkle's for a rainy Memorial Day gathering--Dad is still farming because the rain has yet to reach Meadville. Thanks for the updates! Much love, Mom
