(no subject)
I feel so guilty that I haven't written in so long! I was thinking about trying to update daily or maybe weekly during break. So we'll see if that happens!
I'm finished with classes and now I just have one final and one presentation. Not too bad if you ask me! I took all of my other finals during this past week of classes. I still don't think I have caught up on sleep from studying and doing work.
Tomorrow I start at the Olive Garden again!! I know that sounds like not a big deal but I'm actually really excited. I don't know why but I love working there. The people are so hysterical because their lives are so ridiculous and it's just really fun not to mention the fact that I love making money and I need a bunch for Christmas gifts.
This past weekend was really crazy. Friday was my last day of my internship, which I had mixed feelings about. I really liked it and I enjoyed my time there but I guess in the end it wasn't what I wanted. There was never enough work for me to do and I felt like they didn't want to give me work because they didn't trust me or something. When my boss hired me he said he wanted me to work full time, 40 hours a week, but what student can do that? So I told him I could only do part time, which he agreed to. So I worked 15 hours a week and worked my butt off. Anytime anyone needed or asked for anything I was willing to do whatever. But when it came down to my evaluation through my school, which was how I was graded all he could talk about was how I didn't work enough hours. Every question was based on how he thought he couldn't judge me because I couldn't show him that skill because I didn't work enough hours. Riiiight. But this was all discussed before I was hired and he knew I was a full time student taking 6 classes plus my internship. When my adviser from school came and talked to him for my evaluation he basically told my boss off and said that he should appreciate the time that I was there. It made me feel good that my adviser backed me up. I did learn a lot though and I enjoyed actually going to events and not just running errands for the people. So it was bittersweet.
After work I went to a fashion show where I was a dresser. I was there from 1-11 at night so it was a really long day. And the people running the show did not know how to treat employees. The only thing they had us do from 1-9:30 was bring the clothes to the venue and steam them. So we were sitting around for HOURS doing absolutely nothing. I got so tired just sitting there. And for the dressers, models and staff, all they had food wise was a vegetable tray and fruit tray. And you wouldn't believe it but models EAT. I think they ate more than we did. Needless to say, it wasn't enough food and everyone was so hungry. And they didn't have water or anything. So I guess it was a good experience but kind of a waste of time.
Jay came this weekend both Friday and Saturday night. It was nice being able to spend extra time with him because normally he only comes for a day. We went out on Friday night to the bar and then on Saturday we just went out for dinner and watched a movie at my house. Everything has been really good with us :) and it's crazy that this month we will have been together for two and a half years! But it really doesn't seem like that at all because I still feel like things are as fun an exciting as when we first started dating. And honestly, I don't see things changing like, ever. I think that we could stay together for a long time and everything will stay fun and lovey.
I hope that this break is fun. I haven't seen or talked to Cate and Kay a lot recently and that bothers me. But I hope that because we'll be together and closer to home we will still be the same.
That's all for now :)
