So things are mostly going ok. I'm really stressed about money right now, nothing new really except this time I really do have to stress about it. I've been getting 48 to 55 hours since I went full time, and that's great, I need that many hours to pay rent and eat. Next week I have 44, while this may not seem like a big difference, it actually makes a huge difference. That extra four hours is enough money for me to eat for the week. So if I continue to get only 44 hours, I cannot pay rent and eat. Obviously, this won't work, so I have to pick up extra shifts or I need to apply for a waitressing job sooner rather than later. I hate having stress like this, I like to be able to buy a coke if I want one and I can't. Stupid being a poor kid just starting out.
I'm getting used to working the morning shift, I'm even growing to like it. The work is certainly easier. However, I've noticed the attitudes of the full-timers in the morning are so pessimistic and negative. They just seem to hate their jobs and Disney and everything that goes with it. I want to ask them why they still work there when they hate it so much. Also, I had to work with this guy the other day and it took everything I had to not go off on him by the end of the day. He's basically a dirty old man is what I discovered. Also, he made me work on his schedule instead of mine, which anyone who knows me knows I don't like to do. The final straw was definately when he told me he didn't think that gay couples should be allowed to adopt children. I was hanging on to my chair so tightly my knuckles were turning white. I really almost let him have it. It still makes me angry. But he's just a sad, cynical old janitor, so I've been trying to put him out of my mind.
The new CP's are here. I haven't gotten to see them very much because I've been on mornings and they work mostly nights, but in general, they don't seem as cool as the summer group. But maybe I'm just partial to the summer crew. And of course, with every batch of CP's I've ever been around, it just brings about a time of terrible frustration for me. The problem is that every group always has that one person in it that I like and yet can't do a darned thing about because, well she doesn't like girls...ugh. I really need to get over everyone else, and just work on myself for awhile. But I'm not very good at that! Oh well, I'll just continue chugging and pining away...lol. I'm ridiculous.
And now it's time for a shower and some dinner. I managed to get tomorrow off, and a three day weekend for my birthday next week. (in case you'd forgotten, check facebook in a couple of days, it'll be there. My b-day is next sunday). I'll be an ancient 23 years old. But I have Saturday, Sunday, and Monday off, which is awesome. My grandparents are coming and we're going to go to the Space Center, woot! And guess who's gonna be at the Studios? THE DOODLEBOPS!!!! I'm so excited. For those of you unfortunate enough to not know who they are, look them up. They're on Playhouse Disney. They're awesome. I'm so excited to see them live!!
And now that everyone reading this knows how big of a geek I am, I shall end this update. I hope everyone had fun at Fresh Meat, I wish I had been there!
Keep a journal,
