so just when i thought things couldn't get worse at the victorian, they did... elvin and wilma (the amazing co-managers) just retired now, and are leaving tonight!! a bunch of the other servers and i put money together, and selena and i went and bought them a present. we got them an ice bucket with two BIG wine glasses, and a bottle of champagne, and a sign for their door that says "love makes a house a home". And we made a card for them, and presented it at lunch today. it was great, they were really happy, and wilma started crying. tonight they are hiring me to load the truck with them, it'll be weird saying goodbye. all the residents are so depressed, they are all saying thigns like "what if they don't take care of us, or care about us at all??"..."this isn't the victorian i used to live in"...."our home is falling apart"...."i've never been so sad in the ten years i lived here."......its actually really sad seeing the residents THIS SAD, so now the servers have to step up and make thigns happier for them!!!!!!!!
as for a second job, its been taken care of by the new bitch manager. i got trained to be a dishwasher at the victorian i work at (its actually a decent job....no one except the awesome chefs talk to you), so i will be working for the daytime dishwasher while she's on vacation, and filling in here and there. but...mary anne asked me if i wanted to dishwash at the victorian on mackenzie. so i start my training there on saturday, and its 8 hours shifts, and i'll be making actual money!!!! i will work full time weekends there, and also serve at the feltham one after dishwashing shifts. man oh man, im going to roll in the big bucks!!
currently i am looking to buy a used guitar online, i found a cool black one, and a really awesome blue one. i think im going towards the blue one, but im not too sure. im going to go test them out and then decide.
i just realized something the other day.... a year from now......im going to be gone. i wont see anyone in victoria for a whole year (unless i come back for holidays)....i'll be starting a brand new life, and leaving behind the great friends ive made here. of course i'll still keep in contact but it just won't be the same. im kind of really excited, and it makes me a bit depressed at the same time.
i was thinking about how different grade 12 is going to be for me. a good portion of my friends either graduated last year, or this year. im going to have to start hanging out with my friends in my own grade more often now. well i've got my few really close friends, so im sure i'll manage. or ill probably be living in the library 24/7, and working on my career outside of school. we will see what time has to offer me!!!!
wow, i actually havent done a post in a while, its nice to change things every now and then.
does anyone want to buy a blue and/or red lava lamp....$10 each... oh, and my lj wont let me post the current date....for some reason it thinks im posting in september....oh well
