Oh ok I definitely see what you guys are saying. It's just that this is my first time applying for a "real" job. I babysat and did some housekeeping for this family for two years, that lived across the street from me. I just have a feeling that won't be enough. I have visions of them reading my application, and just tossing it away, because I don't have any real experience. I know i'm taking this a little to seriously, I can't help it I just want to get a job so badly. I hoping they'll take my age in account (22), and give me a chance.
you know I've lived in nyc my whole life, and I've never heard of the Lush store. It's on 34st right?
Sorry for being so annoying.

You're not being annoying, trust me! Yes, there's a Lush on 34th street ( between Macy's and Manhattan Mall, that same side of the street), one on Spring and Broadway, another on 77th and Broadway, and ours, which is 14th between Union Square and 5th ave. Also one out in Queens at Woodhaven Mall. And for the record, I got my first retail job when I was a year older than you, and had no prior experience. So quit worrying, and just apply!

Oops, I had an accidental shopping spree today! It wasnt my fault, there was a VIP party with 10% off everything, and goody bags for purchases over $50. After discounts I managed to spend $49, lol - but got the goodies anyway!
I finally picked up Candy Fluff dusting powder - I just used Cream Candy bubble bar and LURVED the smell (so much so that I left the water in the bath overnight to perfume that end of the house) so Im loving having the powder. I had a bath with the new Butterfly Ball too - you should have seen me sitting in the bath watching it dissolve and waiting for the butterflies to go POP and float to the surface, heehee! Its just lovely, the honeysuckle fragrance was very pleasant, not too overwhelming, and the flowers made it feel like an 'event' rather than just a bath.
Gave my son a bath with Black Pearl - he loved the wee secret message inside, and was hanging over my shoulder just before saying "mummmm, I need more LUUUSH!'.*sigh* another addict.

There's a VIP party at Lush Portland today. Yummy. I'm going to go and buy some more bath bombs. I'm rewarding myself to workout. I workout--I get a Lush bath.

Excellent--thanks for the heads up. I'm having lunch down the street from the shop, so I'll hit that party up as well.

I think I turned one of my cousins on to Lush today. She's very into organic, all-natural things, and I showed her my sample of Herbalism (must buy more!) and she said 'Oooh, I love vinegar!' So you know, what might put some people off of it was a selling point for her. I'm sure they have Lushes up in Illinois, right?

Yep, we do. Two, I think, in Chicago, and the closest one to me is in Oak Brook. I don't know where your cousin is, but there may be one near her.
I gave my friend a gift certificate for her birthday. I love that you can send them via email; it's like the lazy person's gift -- perfect for me! She was thrilled. She was one of the two friends I converted into LUSHies.
I just have to sing the praises of Aquamarina again. That stuff is amazing. I'm not kidding; my skin hasn't looked this good in years (knock on wood). I tried out a new foundation last week and it totally broke me out. After I washed my face with Aquamarina and put on moisturizer, I dabbed some Aquamarina on the zits and left it overnight. In the morning -- all better! It's like a perfect compromise between Fresh Farmacy, which is a bit harsh and drying for me, and Angels on Bare Skin, which is nice but not quite "strong" enough for every day. Such good stuff.

Excellent--thanks for the heads up. I'm having lunch down the street from the shop, so I'll hit that party up as well. I probably ran into you today then since that's my stomping grounds. Nothing better, IMO, then lunch (desert) at Papa Haydn's and then a trip to Lush. . I actually behaved myself this afternoon and stuck to a few bath bombs/bubble bars. It's funny--but I hate Karma Cream, but love the bath bar.

OT: Yeah, I was meeting some friends at Santa Fe and then hit up Lush afterwards. I probably go in every two weeks or so to meet up with someone, also my husband really likes the beer at Laurelwood so we fill up our jug when we go in too. How do you like Papa Haydn's? It's always so busy when we're in that we've never stopped there, but I'd like to at some point.
So, did you sing for a bath bomb? I didn't just because there were four groups of people singing already. Stocked up on a few basics for my husband. . . he loves Lush but won't buy it himself once I leave for grad school (he'll be working 80+ hours a week and won't have time), so I'm making sure he has enough shampoo/shaving cream/Coalface etc. before I go. Plus I wanted a goody bag. I got a Youki-Hi bath bomb and some kind of soap. It's heart-shaped, and I have no idea what it is. It smells nice, though.

I didn't sing for a bath bomb, just because ever since having to sing solo in choir I hate singing in public. Papa Haydn's is yummy, and the only place where I see full grown adults pressed up against the dessert case like they're six. But the food itself is pretty good--Joe Bar right next to it is a little more relaxed.
Seriously though, I live not far from there, but almost never go to that section of 23rd unless I'm going to Lush or the (much missed) Music Millenium.
