i checked out another person’s blog last night. it’s a pretty cool blog. she actually updates on what’s going on and such. it made me realise how horrible of a blogger i am. i’m going to try and do a better job at blogging now. maybe i should keep wordpress open on my web browser at all times. i can probably just copy what i write on my journal onto here. least i won’t have to think doubly hard. i’ll start now.
—commencing better blogging—
today is my friday. well, crap. i guess it actually IS friday. X that out.
today is my last work day till my days off. this is the second week where i have both saturday AND sunday off so i’m still at that, “well…now what do i do?” point of my deep thought.
i try and write down on a day to day basis how busy each day is so i can get an idea on how my week is going to be. fridays have been logged down as “a little busy in the early AM, tones down by noon.” so much for that. today is one of those days where my happy little flower child attitude breaks down and i just want to KILL everyone. it’s probably just a few. those few today being my co-workers stephanie and josh for literally standing around by the coffee station wiping down the already disgustingly clean counters chatting while me and two other girls are getting our asses handed to us due to the rush. i don’t think i would’ve been as pissed off if they didn’t make helping seem like a HUGE favour when it came down to just eva and me dealing with the line.
me: hey. are ANY of you going to help eva and me with this line?
steph: well…where’s liz? isn’t she supposed to be helping too?
me: liz is probably taking a break from working so hard or she’s out somewhere still working.
steph: i guess i can help out. but where is liz?
ERR! it’s not that hard to do the job that you’ve been doing for almost two months now. i don’t know why it had to be such a huge deal. oh. and by the way, liz was out in the lobby viroxing all the unoccupied tables. she was definitely still working her ass off. after that huge rush liz and i both took our “17″ and sat down at a table and complained how much the “girls” sucked. i’m beginning to wonder if the only way i have been making friends up here in by complaining about how much our other co-workers blow.
i was able to get food from king salmon today. they line cooks there made me a veggie omelet. somehow everyone seems to know i’m a vegitarian because the cooks were jokingly putting meat in my food. oh. they were nice though. the omelet was good too. i hardly eat specialised food these days.
when i got home, i hopped on my computer and tried to watch this online series called “Drawn By Pain.” i saw it after yatzee’s video game review on “Haze” and i thought i’d check it out. it looked pretty freakin’ lame, but i think my love for amateur films drew me to it. like i said, i tried to watch it. i don’t know if it’s the animation that bothered me, the bad acting, or the whole concept of having an animated alter ego showing up in the real world and slashing people with a sword that bugs me. either way, i think i’m going to give up on it. i’ll probably watch one more episode.
i got a package today. i think i only order things so i can see my name on the “packages” list down at the front desk. no. but i DID want to get some books and with no borders or barnes up here in healy, i need to order online. luckily amazon does this free shipping deal when you spend 25 dollars or more on goods. not to mention they sell things for less. well, most of the time. two of the books are what i call “happy books.” one of them actually being called Happiness NOW! the other being You Can Heal Your Life. i have had my eye on those books LONG before i left for alaska and i’m just now getting them. i started YCHYL, and it seems pretty good. the third book i got was this “going green” book. don’t remember the title and i’m too stationery right now to check. it’s a good book from what i have skimmed. it’s also another one i have been wanting to get. so i think i’m pretty set for books right now. i’m happy. =3
beni and i did laundry in the third floor today. doing it in our floor is a battle sometimes and a test of my patience with others. every time, without fail, some jerk takes my laundry out of either the washer or the drying and just sits it on top of an in-use dryer. most of the time my clothes are still soaking wet. mmm. i do love the delicious mold smell my clothes will get it they stay out wet all day. so i always take note on which washer/dryer i use. if someone takes my things out of the washer. i make sure to push the “soap” button again when their clothes are done washing. if my clothes were taking out of a dryer, i stop the dryer completely.
the third floor is the guy floor. now i don’t know if guys just don’t like doing their laundry or what, but the laundry room there is barely ever in use. turns out all good there, till i get back from dinner. now what do i see? well, let’s note that there are at least 2 unoccupied dryers in the room. so i see my clothes on top of a dryer. luckily it was about 90% dry. but i think the thing that irked me the most was that some dude had to touch all my laundry, INCLUDING my underwear, just to put his clothes in my dryer. oh HELL no. did my usual. stopped his load. luckily his clothes were still damp.
ending the day ok. just tired now i think. maybe i’ll do a vlog tomorrow or read some of my new books. till then, ja ne.
