Lets have a look at me.
It's odd that up until now I have been sort of drifting through life without any direction. I still am but I guess I'm drifting in the sea rather than in a small pond.
Lets see: I'm 18 and have a mixed job history
First...
The Happy Apple. A convenience store. I worked there for 10 hours a week for the best part of 6 months. It's fair to say I SUCKED. I was lazy and never took the initiative. There could have been shelves half empty with a trolley of new stuff ready to go out on them RIGHT next to it and I'd just ignore it. I got fired, un-surprisingly, and didn't work for a while
Then...
The Inn On The Quay. A pub, or a fast food outlet maybe? I'm not too sure. Kinda like a McDonalds with a bar instead of chocolate shakes and Stroganoff instead of big macs. People thought of it as fine dining. It wasn't. It just plain old wasn't.
I started off just working the bar, then gradually built up my skills and learnt how to do EVERY job in the restaurant. I was a GOOD worker. The place was going downhill badly and the staff didn't care. I'm glad I left that sinking ship.
Now...
The Latilla restaurant at The Boulders Resort and Golden Door Spa. I actually enjoy going to work each day. I've only been there a couple of weeks so we have yet to see if I'm good at my job. I think I'm fairly competent at the moment although I still make the occasional mistake. It's so unlike any place I've ever worked at, or visited for that matter. I know that fellow staff members aren't too fond of the resort or the work but it's in another country and a new standard of working/living which is a big wow for me. I'm still in the honeymoon period I guess.
I've just moved to the middle of the desert from my little seaside town. I'm living on my own. I've left so much behind.
I wanted to type a really long blog here about every little thing that has changed but I'm now realizing that it'd take so long!
I have come here, I have been introduced to new things. I'm up on a high pedestal now and I'm not gonna be knocked off. I like nice things and I'm gonna work hard to get them and keep them! I have such a positive mental attitude right now. I'm not sure if I believe in destiny, I think it's what you make it. I am gonna make my life good! I am gonna haveta work so hard and exel and learn and it's so exciting!
I'm so young and have so much to look forward to. I'm starting to get the knack to jobs.....what's next.....relationships??
