Come home. Work sucks. I know."},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Today was my first <em>real<\/em> day at work. All I did was stock candles in a ridiculously tiny hallway the whole day. Surprisingly, I didn&#8217;t break anything or accidentally maim myself with the boxcutter. I really shouldn&#8217;t be allowed to use a boxcutter, but oh well. My hands are still all waxy and candle-y. My shift was cut in half because it was slow as molasses and they needed to save hours for next week&#8217;s huge shipment. It took me half an hour to get to work and forty five minutes to get home \ud83d\ude41 I really don&#8217;t know what I was expecting with this job&#8230; Today was shipment day, so hopefully I won&#8217;t be on candle-stocking duty tomorrow and it&#8217;ll be fun and painless. I&#8217;ve decided to work at Illuminations AND Starbucks. I&#8217;m not even close to making enough money at Illuminations (plus the tiny hallway and the traffic and blehhh), so I&#8217;m gonna talk to the assistant manager at Starbucks tomorrow to see if he still needs me. There&#8217;s like TWENTY girls working at Illuminations, so maybe I can just work at Starbucks during the week and Illuminations on weekends. I just want to keep my discount \ud83d\ude09 Everyone&#8217;s getting scented candles for Christmas! I wanna save money to go to Italy during the summer and Texas in March to be a bridesmaid at Roxy&#8217;s wedding, so I&#8217;m gonna go cheap on the Christmas gifts this year&#8230; but they&#8217;ll be COOL, cheap Christmas gifts! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>This past weekend, I went up to Riverside with Meehchelle and Gerald. We had a BLAST \ud83d\ude42 Thanks, Meehchelle, for showing me around my future school! She took us to her favorite hangout when she was in college, The Getaway. They make a mean french dip there! I&#8217;m SOOO predicatable, huh, Meehchelle? We went to Sheenie&#8217;s new house in Mo-Val and I \u2665 her purple-striped walls in her room! We gotta paint my room sometime this year! Gerald didn&#8217;t drink the whole time he was in Iraq, so he passed out after a few DIRTY shots (you would understand the dirtyness if you saw how he was drinking these shots haha). We were going to spend the night at my sister&#8217;s house in the OC, but ended up going home because Ernst &#038; Young is a fascist company who makes their employees work twelve-hour days and weekends without overtime. Sorry, Pammie! Next time&#8230; It was my mom&#8217;s birthday this weekend, so we went to dinner on Saturday at Sycuan and I won a whopping $4.50! High roller over here. On Sunday, I had lunch with my relatives for my mom&#8217;s real birthday before heading over to UTC for orientation at Illuminations. Afterwards, I watched <em>The Incredibles<\/em> with Gerald and Edgar. It was so cute \ud83d\ude42 Another great weekend with my family and friends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today was my first real day at work.
