AAAAHH the holidaaayyyysss!
today is my first day off in ten days. this doesn't come close to beating my 21 day streak, but i slept in until 10am and didn't even feel bad about it.
i am no longer a two-jobs baker. my retail job offered me a fifty cent raise and training in cash audits, so i quit my job at save-on to be "full time" there. of course, full time is no more than 37.5 hours, otherwise they would have to offer me benefits. sillyyy.
i helped out at grains bakery for their christmas orders and was paid $300 for two days of unskilled labour. i mean, i guess i utilized my education a few times, grabbin' appropriate tools, cuttin' cakes with hot knives, but reaaallly i was very overpaid. i was considering calculating how much i would make at 16 hrs of labor + 1 hr overtime @ $12/hr with a $50 holiday bonus so i could give the remainder back to the owner, but then i remembered that i'm uninsured and i need to get my wisdom teeth taken out. i guess i'll just thank her for her generosity later.
i was offered a position as an apprentice plumber, and an apprentice electrician, but i don't think i'm going to go there because i'm just assuming i don't have what it takes? i think i'm going to call the apprenticeship board and see if my baking & pastry diploma would set me ahead any further in getting my red seal than just starting from nothing. i need more educationz. i need more real bakery experience besides assembling snobby classic european cakes and firing frozen breads into the oven.
jordan suggested we buy a canoe next year. also, he plans on taking time off in the summer to go to the rodeo in sundre with me, but i'd rather go to tofino. he says no. i want to go to the rodeo, but i don't want to go to sundre. no one i like is there except for rachel. i don't want to be there. i don't want to see people. iiii've moved on and am done and there is nothing there for me. get outta my life, hometown. i guess i could see phillipa? she still sends me christmas presents which is very cute, but it also makes me uncomfortable because i haven't spoken to stu in more than a year. i guess i holla at hannah sometimes. erp, gak, whatever.
aaaaand i'm spending christmas in my own apartment with just my boyfriend so he can sit around and play with the 3ds i got him and i can lie around in the hello kitty footie pajamas i bought myself. maybe i'll leave to drink coffee somewhere if anything is open. idk idk idk welcome to the life of an emancipated young adullllt holllaaaaa.
