This Is The Tiring Week
And it’s only Thursday, which means I have one more day of work, then a day of “rest,” but not really. I have a test in one week and still have to catch up on reading another two chapters for my Sociology class. I have two projects that I have to work on for The Daily Californian; one is by this Saturday night and the other by Sunday night. I have a gazillion comments to reply to and blogs to visit in order to leave my comment as a good token. I have more blogs to read in my RSS feeder, especially a whole crapload of Joana’s. There are two more bills to pay and I still have two paychecks to pick up at the office. I still have yet to fill out the paperwork for my retail job, so technically, I’m working for free. I am writing down my hours though. My room is a bit messy again.
And that’s just… the last few days in a nutshell. Yesterday and today were busy days at the store since many of the girls were preparing for Valentine’s Day. I did end up snagging a nice red dress for myself, which is pretty awesome. Mostly, I’m tired. I’m getting better at being on my feet for six hours, but only barely. Today was an exception because I had one demanding customer that practically wiped me out and then there were rushes at different times, so… I’m just basically tired. I had to squeeze in a dinner between work and school and ended up being about forty minutes late to my class (my class is scheduled to be three hours long). I dressed all nice and fancy only to see my friend, EA, show up in… jeans. What the hell. But he said that the attire was out of the ordinary for him since he usually wears slacks and dress shirts for church, so for him, it was too common.
I’m just tired. This will get better, hopefully. The only thing is that since the manager at the store is away this week for a fashion show, she’s not here to train me herself, so I don’t know if I’m doing something right or wrong, nor do I know what the real working environment will be like. Also, I’m still working in a trial period; my getting hired wasn’t definite. It was more of a “We’ll have you come in to work for a few days and if you’re good, we’ll keep you. If not, then off you go!” I’ll still get paid for the work I do, but it’s just a little frustrating to know that my future is still in the balance. That and I still don’t know what my wage is!
Again. Tired. The dress I’m wearing is still on despite how irritating it’s become in the last few hours. I should really remove it… but… again… tired. I need… something. Comfort food, comfort people, comfort bed. Mmmm. Comfort bed… so tempting…

*Huggles* you’re so exhausted and you’re doing too much. I hope you get your stuff done so you can just take a break and relax. Cause it’s hard to relax when you have a todo list on your mind.
