Lara
Hello! My name is Lara, I live in Seattle, Washington (where it is currently
100 degrees outside, no joke) with my parents, my dog, and 3 cats. I am
currently involved in relationship with a great guy, I am trying hard not to
mess it up, like I do so many things. I work retail, but its not too bad.
I'm the lead (assistant manager) for the music department at a Barnes and
Noble, so I get to boss some people around.
I love music, I spend too much time out with my friends, and too much money
on beer.I hang out with a bunch of boys who work at Microsoft, and at times
my life resembles "The Big Bang Theory." I am prone to using hyperbole more
often then I should (as you all will find out soon enough), and I like to
think that I have a great sense of humor. I love karaoke, and just being
weird.
My birthday is in 2 weeks (August 14th), and so this project will be almost
exactly documenting my 24th year on the planet. This is the year I am going
to attempt to make the full leap into real adulthood, whereas I've just
been tiptoeing around the edges since turning 20.
This year, I am going to attempt to save up, and attempt to move into my own
apartment. I'm going to figure out if I am in the relationship I want to be
in, and I am gunning for a promotion to Manager of the music department.
hopefully that will all unfold over the next year.
One last thing, I tend to be rather dyslexic, and combine words and flip
letters. I don't even really notice it, even after proofreading, so please
bear with me on that over the year. I try really hard, but I miss things.
That's me in a nutshell. Hope to get to know you guys over the course of the
year!

Hello!
This is Jen, from the first year of Envisage. (It was fun, but one year was enough for me). I, too, am dyslexic. I also worked for a BN when I started the Envisage project, but now I'm a teacher. And, I love karaoke too!
I am looking forward to seeing your photos this year.
Have fun! :)
Hey Jen,
Which Barnes and Noble? I used to work at the B&N in Bellevue, the one that was a remodeled bowling alley?
I was lead bookseller in the Children's department.

Amanda, I do work at that one! I am the Music Lead.
Wow, Small world! you might see some familiar stuff in my pictures then!
In answer to the question from The Hip Housewife:
I started working at a BN in Dundee, Illinois.
I ended up working at a BN in SLO, California.
