Last night was the Bridgerland Tech Expo and job fair. It is a way for the school to showcase the programs that are available and also have a place where people can get some leads for jobs and things like that. I had a blast welcoming people and helping them make these awesome magazine strip bows.
The bulletin board outside of our classroom was a point of interest for many people. We took doll chairs and painted them all different colors, hung them from the corners of the bulletin board on raffia string. Put up pictures of some of the different fields of interior design, and hung up fabric samples and a paint deck. A lot of people loved it and stopped by just to tell us that!
I also have a couple funny stories to share.. There was this weird (very, very weird),older man who decided it would be appropriate to approach me and tell me that he wasn't really interested in the program but that he was interested in me because I was so pretty. I laughed and smiled politely. As he turned to walk away he dropped some papers, he turned back around and said to me, "You have got me all hot and bothered".... now, at this, you can imagine the horrified look on my face, as I again tried to be polite and handed him his dropped papers. After that terrifying experience, there weren't really any other weirdo's that hit on me. UNTIL right before the thing ended, another older gentleman wandered over to the interior design area, as he was leaving, he said something in another language, so I asked him what he had said, "Thank you, sweetie," was his response, "in Russian." I just stood there... politely smiling, glad the day was over and I could go home to my husband.
I am grateful for these little experiences in my life. It's all about the details! :) Have a great day!! -Britt
