I also love the fact that we go shopping. I got a new dress.
I know that one of my resolutions this year was to wear more colour, but I'm slowly creeping back into wearing black and white all the time. At least my glasses are red, right?
I wore that dress to an interview I had last night for a womens fashion store. I don't think the interview went well. I seem to have lost my ability to read people and situations and now I'm a little lost. I think that if I get the job at all, it'll be because I wore a cute dress instead of my usual muted, formal approach. The lady interviewing me even remarked on the cuteness so at least that's a win, right?
The initial reason for purchasing the dress (apart from cute factor) was because I have a 21st next weekend to go to. If Em and Annie aren't there (...actually, I hope Em got my text that she's invited) then I have a feeling I am going to know no one except for the host. The following week I have a play to go to in which I will only know one of the actors.
Normally, for me, that's okay. I enjoy doing stuff by myself - going to movies, having coffee, listening to music. Hell, sometimes I get too used to doing stuff alone and it gets a little weird. In Auckland I could always count on knowing someone where I was going (especially to a play!) or if I was sure no one I knew was going to be there, then I had a plus one like Lucy or Anni.
Here? I've realised that a lot of my friends are in relationships. So I can never say, "Let's you and me go and do x," because it'll always turn into an awkward third wheel situation. I love you guys, really, but sometimes I just want to hang out with YOU, not you and your significant other.
So I've decided that I want a new plus one. Mainly because spending nights at home with kitty are getting boring.
Oh, the search begins.
