Ralph Lauren

I watch entirely too much t.v. All I can think about while writing this post is how a future intern for Kelly Cutrone (Kell on Earth) ended up being fired, before even really being hired, because she couldn't keep her mouth, well, her fingers shut. She posted something on the Internet (she was excited!) and poof she was DONE. I know the Factory Outlet at Waikele isn't as "celebrity" as Kelly Cutrone, but still. The thought occurred to me, so of course I had to share it. I need to add a new "category" to the Blog called "job-ing". As part of my "to do" before turning 35 (groan), I decided to apply to at least three jobs (in hopes of getting a call back, interview...JOB). So far, I have applied to:
1. Borders (I re-applied)
2. Old Navy
3. Ralph Lauren
4. Gymboree (well, I filled out the application anyway)
5. Williams Sonoma (holding on to the application...rejection is scary)
6. Apple (about to do it...right after I finish this)
The only luck so far? A late evening call back for a group interview at Ralph Lauren. I am excited and nervous. I keep thinking about Rachel (Jennifer Anniston's character on Friends...there's that t.v. addiction creeping in again). She worked for Ralph Lauren. She also worked in a cafe serving coffee. Since Starbucks passed on me, I guess I don't have that much in common with "Rachel"...Monica on the other hand...
Wish me luck. I look forward to possibly being a Hawaii preppy goddess.

Mililani Exploration: Kipapa Stream Trail

Image
Learn something new everyday. Today, I learned there is a lovely neighborhood park in walking distance from my house...and a fabulous hiking trail just behind that!  Today we were finally able to go on a hike---without driving (well, sort of...more on that later). We simply geared up, walked out of our house and to a trail we'd never explored before. Adventure Saturday! Today's hike was 2.2 miles (one way) on a partially old paved road, winding around the back woods of Mililani, down to Kipapa Stream, back up to...Costco in Waipio. Say what? We truly had not planned on arriving on the oustskirts of a farm that is directly across from our local Costco. Hiking truly lands you in the most unexpected places.   Along our route we encountered dirt bikers, a small band of pre-teen scooter riders, a couple of farm hands in a truck, a very intimidating junkyard dog, zero other hikers, and a friendly Starbucks Barista.  That's right, after our Saturday surprise hiking adventure, we f

Turtle Bay "LOST" Trail

Lost in Paradise is how I would describe yesterday's beach/forest trail that led us past crabs climbing on rocks, mongoose dashing across the trail, horses around the stables, a lone Pillbox, and finally to an iconic Banyan Tree famous for recurring roles in the television series "Lost" and an appearance in "Pirates of the Caribbean". My mother-in-law was on island visiting for a week, so Marina, Sarah, and I took her on a hiking adventure...followed up by a thirst quenching Bacon Basil Bloody Mary.  I have previously explored trails with my mother-in-law.  We have trekked through mud and mosquitos at Manoa Falls, walked up a windy Makapu'u, huffed up Hau'ula Loop, strolled the North Shore's Waimea Falls and Kahuku Point.  So, this visit was no different.  We found ourselves hiking pals again for two separate trails this trip, the Turtle Bay "LOST" Trail being the best of the two. This trail begins in the far corner of the Turt

Shameless Plug...

I'm in love with this new outfit of Zach's. Okay, outfit might be stretching it...onesie. I have to share. As usual, the picture is sub standard, but if you click here , you can go to the website where other cuteness can be found. Better pictures there. I guess that's why I don't get paid the big bucks, I can spread the word, but my advertising photo skills are lacking. No matter. Still a cute onesie. And still a cute baby. Thanks to my mommy friend Summer for sharing this rocking onesie with us. We love it. Consider this the thank you note?
