A REAL update

Jun 05, 2004 00:57

Whew. This week has been going great! I finally got a job on Tuesday! I was soooo excited. I'm working at Bealls now so if you are ever in there, come visit me! Anyway, it's going really well. I've worked the past two days (they really have been training days) and I have tomorrow off. Sunday is my first actual day. I'm kinda nervous because I still feel so lost. But, yeah. I love it so far. It's the best job I've had in my short working career. So in the past two days I've been working at the busiest section of the store and I'm pretty skilled with the register. I can do returns too! I couldn't even do returns at Bath and Body Works right and I worked there for almost a year. So I feel much better about myself now that I'm not waking up every morning and having nothing of value to accomplish. AND, I'm getting money again. :D I get paid on Friday. It won't be anything big since I'll have only worked ten hours, but it's something.

Chris and I have been trying to go to Orlando this week, but it has rained everyday so far. :( We're going to go to Leu Gardens, which is outside so the rain is kind of a big deal. And then we are planning to go back to the sushi restaurant we went to the last time we went to Orlando, Ichiban. Mmmm. It was SO good. If you love sushi, you gotta try this place. Anyway, we'll do something eventually. And Chris is growing a goatee thing. O_o I really hate facial hair, but I'm willing to give it a try and he still looks extra cute so it's not THAT bad. I just hate how rough it is. Eeeew. He wants to get a new haircut too. I've been trying to help with that one. It will be really weird though because he's had the same haircut since I've met him. Almost four years!! But I'm excited for him and I know he really wants to update his look. Yay for change!

Hmm... other than that, I've just been downloading comics and reading magazines and stuff. I just got my JLA comics I ordered off eBay today. I haven't really looked at them much, but I may read the first one tonight. It's the recent "Tenth Circle" arc, which is supposed to be pretty good. Comic reading has been going well besides getting banned from a certain channel on mIRC for no reason. Grr... But yeah, it's really fun and I'm starting to piece certain things together about the characters and the storylines. There is just so much information! I'm really looking forward to "Identity Crisis" which starts next week, I believe. That's going to be in much demand!

Tonight we rented "Monster". It was pretty good and it wasn't as bad (graphic wise) as I had expected and as people had described it. Still, I would NEVER watch it with any adults or anything. Charlize Theron is VERY talented. You'd never know it was her. I felt kinda weird after I watched it. I still do. I guess I sort of feel a little disturbed. I just feel like something is wrong... but there's nothing wrong. I don't know. I'm messed up tonight for some reason. I think the movie just got me thinking how lucky I am to have such a blessed life. I may have/go through some tough stuff, but it is nothing compared to what a lot of other people have to deal with. I just hate going everyday and never giving the gifts in my life a second thought. How I live in a place where I don't have to fear death or disease. I live in a home that is safe and I'm not starving and I know where I'm going to be sleeping every night. It is crazy how caught up I get in the little things that don't matter. Everyday I really do try to think about how thankful I am. Still, I always feel like I'm not doing enough.

Well, I think this post is long enough! I'm going to read a little bit or something and go to bed soon. I'm pooped. I feel much better after getting all of this crap out of my system.
