Week 2: Day 1

This is the first time I've been able to write a post on the same day! First day back after the weekend (which flew by rather disappointedly) and I'm already well into the swing of things. I've realised that it's worth it to get to bed earlier (12am latest) as it gives me much better performance at work (of course).

The shop has been extended for another four weeks and as this was all organised rather last minute with the Carnaby Quarter folks, we have been unable to arrange more lectures/talks/exhibitions/gigs etc. So I arrived to pretty much an empty shop, a lot of the girls helping out have returned to uni so it was just a few of us working today.

Again no internet, so I spent the majority of the day with workmate, Laurel, in Starbucks at out makeshift work station next to the only two plug sockets in the coffee shop! Bit unfair as we had to keep buying things to make our long stay valid (we were there about 5 hours!) and we really should do something about so short term internet deal at the shop. I had to try and source a couple of projectors for the shop to borrow for the coming weeks as our previous ones have returned to one of the girls' uni. These are not cheap to hire! But anyway, I played a bit of PA today in that sense and also checked out some cheap stools on Ikea's site as we're also losing our chairs!

I have managed to post two of my pieces on the blog today also, a bit overdue but no one told me I could go ahead and do it until today. These can be seen at: http://sketchbookblog.tumblr.com/post/534015201/a-w-2010-collections-from-exposure-pr and http://sketchbookblog.tumblr.com/post/533292101/jaeger-boutique-launches-a-w-2010

I've started to think about my case study question more now, since the longer I work at the magazine the more I can begin to realise how it's all run. I'm going to start documenting/ interviewing towards the end of the week and start collection my data.
