Working through the Four Seasons

SO
The past week went by so slowly. The same thing everyday. School... not to mention that math class is the EXACT FUCKING SAME THING everyday!! And I have it straight away in the morning which is just not pleasant. But German class on Friday was great! Frau Feltz did a presentation on her stay in Austria which was very cool. That was really the only nice thing that happened at school.
Friday night at work was this week with Elle. I missed closing with you, Erin - and Elle it was great seeing you on a Friday, but then missed you on Saturday! My schedule is back to normal though now so after this weekend hopefully we can have our normal dates ;)
Saturday was nice to sleep in a bit. Then in the afternoon Chamber Strings had a concert. We had to go to our teaches church, which I find kind of annoying, especially that it was on the weekend... but putting it aside, it went quite well. We played the Four Seasons by Vivaldi. It took forever, but I think we kicked a bit of ass at it.
Sunday was an 8-5 shift. Being in grill all day, I feel very nasty and really want to go to sleep. After work I went to the grocery store for my weekly food, went home, and made my lunch for tomorrow.
Sleep. Now.

Bitch Customer, Long-Ass Week

Well the weekend was okay. Sunday at work sucked major ass. This woman came in and yelled at us because we forgot her fries. I was making shakes and she just stared at me when Erin apologized and gave her fries. She looked like she was going to kill me. She turned around with her fries and kept starting. I said "ooookayyyy" because she creeped the hell out of me. Then she went off even more. Everyone was just so... "holy shit, what is wrong with this woman?" Anyway that day just was not too good of one... I was in an awful mood. To top off that wonderful day, I got home and our washing machine was broken. So that means, my clothes were almost all dirty. Yippie. Luckily it is fixed now though.
Monday was just a boring day of school. Yippee!!
Tuesday after school Steph and I went to the Chocolate Caper in Oregon. We each spent about $15 on chocolate! It's SO amazing and delicious. Then we went to Noodles and Company and ate and then loitered for like... 1.5 hours. It was so wonderful. We will do that again soon.
Today was just school and work. Work was nice and easy, I am just tired and cannot wait to go to sleep. Speaking of sleep, after typing I am going to do that.
My espresso machine is working well and it helps me get through the day. I have been trying different ways of making my morning mocha. Everyday they are getting better, so that is great! I am not really looking forward to bringing the machine back and forth every week to each house, but I guess it's just another box to bring. When I get my own place, it'll be far more than worth it.
Also my iPhone is wonderful - it's just so easy and convenient to have internet all the time. I never thought I would ever have it.
My paychecks have been wonderful lately... I think I am going to buy a new camera soon. A Canon Rebel T3i. They're not too expensive, and I think that the memories will be worth the money. Not to mention they are much better than my current camera, which is very nice but doesn't work too well in low-lighting. Also, the touch screen (the only way to use the camera) is starting to go bad.
It's been kind of tough lately. I have been very depressed and I have been finding little interesting or funny. It's just been... numb. I am still missing somebody badly and not an hour passes that I think of him. It's just difficult and I don't want to be a creep. . . I cannot explain the feelings, nor do I feel the need to, but shit I feel like a hopeless creep! Oh well.
Well, let's see what the rest of the week brings.

The Weekend

It is now Sunday evening and I am very, very tired.
I worked all weekend, which was pretty great -- I did a 10.5 hour shift on Saturday until 00.15 on Sunday, then went back at 08.00. We had on Saturday Quarter Pounders with Cheese for $1.00. People were crazy with that just as they were with the Big Macs, although we put a cap on the limit per order. So, to get around this people would order 6 in drive-thru and come inside and order more... people are so disgusting! Anyway today I was so tired. But, we decided to go get Donuts. So I went to the bakery to pick them up, which was fun. :D They were delicious.
I cannot wait to sleep.

Work, work, work!

I'm still cleaning up my rooms and going through all of my things. So far I have gotten rid of 5 bags of things to goodwill, 1 garbage bag full and one iMac box full of papers and other recyclables, and a bit of just plain garbage. It is lifting a lot off of my shoulders. My stress level has gown done a considerable amount.
So last night I worked from 3-8. Tonight I work from 3-10, after a long day of school! Tomorrow I have Solo & Ensemble and I have to get up at 6. Sunday I work at 9 AM. Then, a week of school! I am going to be one sleepy mo-fo!
So after my slow progress with my room, I have realized that things mean nothing. I want to be happy without too much shit. Of course, some things like photos and video are priceless.
Well, it's time to leave for work!

It’s still cold… but I’ve had some fun

Alrighty, the past few days have been a lot of fun. I hung out with Taby on Friday and watched Summer Heights High and ate cheese pizza... which took a SUPER long time from Pizza Hut. (lol)
On Saturday, I worked for eight hours and then went laser tagging for Amber's birthday. That was a shitton of fun! :)
On Sunday, I worked for six hours and then went to Emi's house and we made some vegan soup, talked deeply about life and sorted out some big issues that have been bothering the both of us. So far, a very productive weekend and a ton of fun every day! Now it's time to relax and go to sleep. Tomorrow, I will need to help my dad find a good netbook as well as pack my shit and go to my mom's house for a few days... and tidy my room... I'm so fucking sick of not having enough time to keep it completely organized.
:)
