Coffee and Freckles
I haven't done a long, well written, blog entry in a while. I'm so sorry to my readers but I've been so busy with everything. So let me tell you where my heads at. Personally - right now - I'm hungry but overall I'm pretty cool with life. The only problem is work. I know a few days ago work was going oh so well I'm so up and down. Its just very overwhelming sometimes and it's frustrating because I don't like feeling that I'm not giving something my all. Especially when it has to do with writing. Its been so time consuming with working on my book and volunteering at the school, the modeling, and the radio show, that it seems work is coming last when it comes to importance. I get it all done though - I make sure of it. I'm sort of OCD about things like that, I've got to get everything done. The money is great, but thats never been an issue. And when it comes to my social life well, I don't really have one anymore. I don't know why I bother trying - now is not the time to be trying to hang out with friends or have any fun. But hey whats life without a little stress!? and today my life has been filled with it. The last couple of weeks I've been helping amber find a job and thats been stressful to the maxx, I'll just say sometimes being her roomate is not the easiest thing. It seems that I can never find her anything thats good enough for her and shes doing even worse.
But this morning I headed to starbucks. Mmm... a caramel frap and a cookie made the day look suddenly better. And then I saw it. A sign above the cute boy who always works there. A simple sign that made my heart race."Vacancy. Apply at counter for details". I didnt even wait to finish my cookie, jumping up just in case someone else had spotted it, I wound my way to the, thankfully, quiet counter and leaned over it. The cute boy with the freckles looked at me and smiled. "Can I help you?"I pointed at the sign, "Is there still a vacancy?" I asked, hoping it hadnt already been filled. Freckles smiled at me, nodding. Today was the day, smiling uncontrollably half because of the job and half because freckles was busy flirting with me as I filled out an application the best I could for her . He took it, skimmed it and smiled."We'll probably get in contact in the next few days - we've had a few other people to consider." And that was that. No "this looks promising, she has a pretty good chance". Nope. Just, like always, "we'll contact her." Having no choice but to turn away, I smiled one last time, said, "thanks" and headed out into the rain. But whatever at least I don't have my roommate to worry about for a while. Well hopefully, fingers and toes crossed, she might have some luck after all. Although I really cant imagine her working in Starbucks, making coffee and whatnot... maybe I wont tell her just yet... Lets wait and see how it goes. Later Freaks.
