i can’t believe how quickly time is going by. it’s already been over a month since summer break started for me, and so much has been happening. list time!
- living alone isn’t lonely at all!
- working full time is hard.
- working 1-10pm is hard.
- working 8 hours a day on my feet is painful.
- my calves are going to become huge
- retail pharmacy is such a high stress environment
- dealing with customers who think the world revolves around them SUCKS. (i’m gonna stop doing that when i complain at places. HAHA. it’s a very humbling experience and i’ve learned my lesson)
- customers yelling at me like it’s my fault SUCKS
- apologizing even when i don’t mean it is getting old
- learning about pills is cooooool
- getting to know my coworkers/bosses makes work fun
- some grandma’s and grandpa’s are SO CUTEEEE
i <3 gentle old people
- sitting down for a 15 minute break is a glorious time, and a crucial factor in determining my mood for the next two hours
- flats for 8 hours are no good. comfy shoes with good support make my day 10x better.
- i’m very touched when people come visit me
(thanks you guys!)
- my other job was 10 times less work for 1.5 times more the pay. i have to remind myself that i’m gaining experience from this job.
- i appreciate/admire anyone who works full time and is down to play after work when they have work the next day. i had no idea it was so hard to do. hahaah
- i got this weekend off to go to vbs, so now i must work 4th of july weekend. ………..yay
storytime:
- so when i first started working, i was so scared to be late that i was speed walking like crazy once i got off the bus. i was rushing so much that i passed by a grandpa in a car reaching over to open the door for his wife, who was struggling to get to the car with a grocery bag and a walker. i was so selfish and just passed by when i could’ve helped
i still feel really bad about it. after all those good samaritan sermons…..
- so during my lunch break, i’ve been exploring eateries around the area (yay for good food
) i eat half of my meal for lunch, and end up eating the other half for dinner. once, i was heading home with my leftovers, when this guy outside my apartment asked me for them. i was really hungry – like REALLY hungry. and had no other food at home, so i lied and told him it was for my roommate, then went into my apartment and ate it. and it was goooood. hahaha then i felt guilty because i kept thinking, “what if he was more hungry than i was? what if he hadn’t eaten in a long time?” hhahaha
i’m a terrible person who is tired a lot now. and likes to go home after work, sit on my couch and watch tv for a little bit then go to sleep early. and i now really appreciate being a student. hahaahah
that is all! gnight
