it's called the "baked" apple.

i think i'll break this into separate posts... so much to tell; i haven't blogged in weeks!

first, i cannot believe i only have 3 more weeks in NYC. where does time go?!

work has been amazing! i have been so busy working on my presentation (which is going very well), doing small little tasks around the office, and running errands for perfume, cupcakes, wine, etc :) haha...

one of the other interns caroline that i used to sit near left a few weeks ago, so essentially i am doing everything she used to do along with all my work now too...but i absolutely LOVE being busy and helping out at the office. everyone who i work with always feels bad asking me to do these little errands but secretly i'm in love with it!

2 weeks ago i got to meet the perfumer olivier cresp, who created angel and d&g light blue which was an amazing experience. he works for firmenich, but in our london offices.

my mentor hilary got offered a job at the offices in london for 2 months to cover for someone else, so she is leaving me this friday already...i'm sooo happy for her though, but i'll miss her so much!

some of the other great things that have happened in the past couple of weeks...

1. i met up with my old mentor anne-marie for lunch; we picked up right where we had left off two years ago. it was absolutely wonderful seeing her :)

2. attended a CEW event: young executives with a bunch of the girls from work. the event had a much bigger turnout than expected...but getting to know many more people from work was great!

3. we had our 625high event that i had been on the board for... it turned out great and i got mentioned in the president of our company's email... so that was exciting :) we had 60 clients show up from several brands including estee lauder, avon, batallure, coty, vs, sephora, etc... for every client that came firmenich donated 1,000 to haiti schools <3

4. ....after 625high the firmenich interns decided to go out for drinks...bad, bad, bad idea considering we all had to show up at work at 8:30am. lets just say half day friday was miserable but the night was fun :)!

5. we had a made their mark lunch with liz kaplow at the mark offices. she opened kaplow pr agency 20 years ago.

6. experienced the hottest day ever in nyc... it was horrible. just saying...

its going to be so weird to leave ny in 3 weeks! everyone at work is so kind and i love what i'm doing.. just more to look forward to when i graduate...

i have also came to decide that i will live in new york city for at least 5-10 years after graduation.. i love this life... i'll i ask is that a few friends from back home move with me?? and that my family comes to visit at least every 3 months.

.....now that would be the life!
