So I haven't been talking about it much because it's actually been a rather large worry, but I finally got a job at another Starbucks in NYC. *relieved sigh* It's not as easy as transferring in to any place, I had to call and introduce myself and hope places had openings. My manager was (unexpectedly) a huge help with this, she called all the ( Read more... )

I am home again! (Tralala.) I spent the weekend in Philly with my family so that I could go to my baby cousin's first birthday party. He is the most adorable baby in the history of ever, and I will not hear otherwise ( Read more... )

Oh my goodness, bartending requires knowing so many drinks.

I'm not sure if I mentioned this, but I have started taking bartending classes as of today. My parents are paying for it for my sister and myself on the condition that we do well and study for two hours a day, and possibly the premise that it'll be easier to pay them back what we already ( Read more... )

I find myself oddly and randomly concerned for a Korean couple that came into Starbucks all of once. They looked like they were in their late teens or early twenties and kept making out in the corner, which kind of weirded out me and my coworkers a little, but there's not much you can do about it without feeling kind of awkward. Then we closed down ( Read more... )

Why does the work week always feel like it's taking forever to end? Maybe because I have to work six days in a row. Bleh. Tomorrow is it, and then I get my glorious Friday off! Then I have to work a full shirt Saturday, but then! No more work until the Saturday after that! And Izzy is visiting, so yay!

...But it's not now. And also, I don't paid ( Read more... )

I can't wait until I'm done with work Thursday. -_-;; I have Friday off, as usual, and I can get a break... I had a freaking nightmare about work, and I spent the first half of my shift in a bad mood because of it. It got better once I saw Wendy and after Davie and I joked around a bit. Also, a guy on the local firefighter volunteer squad invited ( Read more... )

I find that it makes me feel calm and sort of happy to dream about Doctor Who. The things that occur in the show... dreaming about them makes them feel more real, I think. The Doctor, for all his gifts and faults, is a symbol of hope. What else can you call a man who has lost everything and keeps going on? Helping others, because he love(lovelove)s ( Read more... )
