Not totally. I just got back from my interview. And I was like a shoe-in to the lady, Louise. However, they were only looking for a local person to work in the pharmacy. Just like what happened to me with Deborah. Ugh. I understand though, they said it takes about 3 months to train.
My interview went well. She asked me situational questions which required me to bring up past situations where I exhibited those characteristics. Like "explain a situation where you had to work fast but still keep high quality," or "explain how you worked in a team," etc. That part went well.
But yeah, she kept saying it was a shame that I won't be here in the fall because she'd take me in a second.
Whhyyyyy does my life suck? AHHH.
So instead I updated my application to include Cashier and Cart Pusher/Greeter. Oh man.
Hopefully I'll get cashier so I can get that experience.
DAMN I would definitely have that pharm tech job if I wasn't leaving.
BLAH.

Just Living These Days As They Come
Quiznos is not that bad. I believe I've passed the most annoying part of the job at this certain Quiznos - the hovering. Yeah.
But anyway, I got to visit Caitlin again and got to see her not-bad-on-the-eyes boss up close. Haha. And when I was getting boba, he was down there and actually spoke to me, haha. Cute.
So yes I love bubble tea, boba, whatever you want to call me. And I love the 10% I get off there because I work at the mall. But I can't keep getting larges - they cost exactly 4 bucks after the discount. That's quite a lot. But the guy is nice, he gives me the extra overflow, instead of throwing it away. I give him a dollar tip. Schweet.
Walmart called me yesterday for an interview, but because I couldn't come in today, I'm going tomorrow morning at 9am. Yay! Hopefully I'll get a pharmacy tech position. Then I'll have two jobs. I feel like I'm catching up with everyone else, but yet I'm still behind. I still want to be waiter at some point in my life. Just to experience it. And to, you know, also have the experience. It never hurts to have that on your resume, right?
I got paid today, finally! And now I know how much I'm getting an hour there. $7.25. I think that's what I wrote on the application when it asked how much do you expect to get paid. Damn, I should have put down 8 dollars. Oh well. So I worked a little less than 39 hours. You do the math, minus the taxes and junk.
This weekend I'm going to see Wicked in NYC with my sister and her friend! Yay for going to NYC again after a long time. Port Authority does not count. We're staying overnight as well. I've never stayed overnight in NYC. This will be fun. Period.
Okay goodnight, I need my sleep! Wish me luck!

Oh Love...
Lordy Lord, I hate watching romantic movies but I do love them. I hate watching because then it only makes me wish I had that. I'm such a hopeless romantic. It's so sad. Yeah I just watched Adam & Steve. It was a good movie... I wish I had a guy.
Anyway, I can keep those sob stories and thoughts to myself. Let me tell you about what I've been doing.
So yesterday, I stayed over in Atlantic City with my family and Monette. It was good times. We mainly boardwalked it. Yup. Went to the new Pier Shops area or whatever it's called. Some nice stores in there... there's an Apple Store! How awesome?! Haha, I'm such a dork. Well yeah we came back today and such and then we picked up Mariel and then headed to the movies to watch an effed up movie, Mr. Brooks. Hah it was good, but seriously crazy. I recommend it if you like thrillers/suspense/WEIRD movies. Like me. Hah.
So tomorrow I work from 10-4 and then after it's the Two Hearts thing at Sacred Heart. Yeah. I have to wear red.
Which brings me to the "I HATE BEING FAT" point of the entry. Haha. You knew it was coming. Ugh I really wish I was skinny. Maybe then I'd have a better chance to find someone. Whatever, I just need to keep on at it and really commit. I need to change before I go back to Boston. There are some hot guys in the city, LOL.
So after the movies, I hung out with Jackie. We went to the Burl Co Lib to watch the Swan Lake performance in the ampitheater... except it was moved inside for some reason? I didn't catch the reason why. But it was nice. Lots of elderly enjoying the two hot young guys and three hot girls. Haha. Yeah.
Then we hit up the DVDs and I got some movies, including Adam & Steve. I was lucky to find it. I'm adding it to my collection, if you know what I mean. Yeah. ;D
And then we headed to the Burlington Center, walked around for a couple, then went to Wawa for some F'REAL! milkshakes. YUM.
Sweet.
Damn I wish I was skinny.
Anyway, just a quick update before I head off to bed, I need sleep...
And I just wanted to say, I'm glad I'm working. No more of these really late nights (i.e. 4am) doing absolutely nothing. I have reason to sleep, haha, which is good. Working at the Q! really isn't that bad. I just wish I knew how much I was being paid, and when I'll be getting my first paycheck. Maybe I'll ask tomorrow. Yeah. And I definitely think I like the morning shift better than nighttime/close shift. Mmhmm.
Goodnight, I'm going to try and clean my room before I head to bed.
And I have another unrealistic "want." Leopard comes out in October, so I want to try and get a Mac over winter break of next year. Yeah I know, it'll never happen. I just wish.
I also need to keep in mind that I need to find a job in Boston, preferably a PHARMACY TECH job so I can start doing my internship hours - which reminds me I need to register... Bleh.
I'll leave you with the John Lennon song...
"Love is real, real is love,
Love is feeling, feeling love,
Love is wanting to be loved.
Love is touch, touch is love,
Love is reaching, reaching love,
Love is asking to be loved."
Goodnight!
