my current life

So I got hired at my job. I am assistant to creative director at Anne Bowen. I work there full time and am finishing up my night classes for this semester. We are currently designing the Spring 2010 line and having quite a few events coming up. I am actually put into a position of power, which in the words of "Spiderman" comes with many responsibilities. It is a stressful job especially when I am in school as well. I have so many final projects due this coming week and it is stressing me out. I should be fine, but it's just still a lot. I have been to a few events around NYC just for networking purposes, but I seem to not ever have time to focus on my own designs. I am designing for my boss and for school but not for myself at the moment. I am going to take one or two fall classes, but I want to focus more on my own designs. My boss is using my designs as inspiration, but no credit :(. I guess that's the business though. I like having the satisfaction she used them and the public sees them as a result. I was also offered partnership at a store in Redhook, Brooklyn. I am not sure if I have time or enough money to invest in it though, I will have to really think about it and see if I have time. I'm going to China in mid June to visit my brother, it is going to be so nice to have a vacation and just concentrate on my designs for a new portfolio, for a spring application. By the time I get into FIT, I am probably going to be done with the whole curriculum, ridiculous. Oh well, that's where I am now and I feel good.
