Sup LJ, It's been a while but I think now is a good time to whine about how pathetic my life is right now.
So I've been in Adelaide a whole 8 months now and the only reason why its been any good is because I don't have school. Instead I have a nice casual job that pays well and I can pretty much sleep in :D Though it is a job in retail and therefore dealing with whiney customers that 75% still won't be happy if you bend over backwards and do a dance for them... the other 25% shock me when they smile and say that I've been great... That generally is enough optimism to last me for the rest of the shift. Other than the customers the people I work with are pretty great My bosses are awesome to talk to and so are the other staff.
-Helen is awesome, we bonded pretty well so she's always there for me, hopefully when things have settled down for her we'll be able to hang out more.
-Emily (my boss) Is incredible, we've had some amazing conversations about anything and everything I really feel I can talk to her and have a good laugh.
-Ollie has been kind enough to dub me with my own nick-name that seems to have stuck -RedHelen- it came from Mad Men but I love it and its a good ID since there are two Helens at work, and it really made me feel a part of something.
-Alaina and I have had some hilarious times especially when the store gets quiet and we get the afternoon loopies (y'know when you're tired and sick of standing you get a bit loopy... its fun :D)
-Louise is totally adorable. Like I just wanna hug her also she's into the anime stuffs which is so awesome :3
-LUCY Friday nights with Lucy is always amazing, she's got so many fascinating and funny stories and she's so creative so its always great to pick her brain ;D
These people have been so awesome to me and I really hope that we can do more stuff out of work together... I think I value them more than the other people I have met.
The other people I have met were great when I first met them. I was getting invited to parties and such and it was great fun but now its nothing. They are either grounded or weighed down with too much homework to be fucked to hang out with me. But the flip side is that most of the time after I've asked if they want to hang they'll go and ask someone else to come over. WTF. I thought I was an ok person. Am I really that horrible that I've been abandoned and made to look like a total loser. Forced to sit around all day at home (until I have work) because people in Adelaide are too stuck up to accept someone like me. I'm trying to make friends but it's hard when you keep getting shot down by all the cliques. *pants*
My rents are pretty good right now. Mum and I are working well together (well with dad here she's more targeting her stress at him which means she leaves me alone. She's in the Flinders range at the moment cycling so Dad and I have a massive sense of freedom... srsly its 10 to 3 in the morning and I still have my light on :D But it'll be good when she gets back. I do miss her, dad makes a lot of mess and at a time like this I really need a mum to hug
My cat is heavily pregnant with (what I think to be) 2 kittens, so excited, I think it'll be any day now. She's so fat and the kittens won't stop kicking XD
Anyway, I think thats enough for now .___. I'm pretty tired and I really should get my sleep back into a normal pattern ^^'
Night night LJ, Was a good talk. Must do it again soon :)
