Coffee at Starbucks // 3
Today started off in a weird way. I got to sleep in a little bit longer then I had yesterday and I got ready in no time. Time seemed to be extra slow today, which was nice at some points of the day but other times not so much. I also didn’t realize how many 91 buses there were in the morning.
Starbucks got my drink right this morning. I also ran into my friends from Lush when I went to take the deposit down, though I didn’t find out till later that Elaina was working as well. Laura gave me a tip on how to make chai seed pudding. I also got to talk to Julie, who is the person I go to to vent about how stupid Gymboree is.
Work would not end today, it didn’t help I had to work with my manager. Whom still has yet to say anything about what’s happening with my situation. Though I found out the new manager will be starting soon, he’s just training at Bayshore first. Not too sure how I feel about it being a guy, especially since he was rather rude to me when we first met.
Surprisingly my manager let me off work 5 minutes early. Plus Sarah was off at 2 as well, so we went to Starbucks after. I kid you not I’m literally addicted to starbucks, not fucking joke. Sarah payed for my order as a thank you, which was sweet of her. I jut hate having people pay for me, I always feel awkward after. Either way, I know Sarah truly did it as a thank you and not something to hold against me.
I didn’t realize how much I missed talking to her till we talked about everything that’s happened the last few days. I realllllllly hope we both get hired. She was the first friend I had made who was a fellow seasonal. I’m sure she will get hired, not only because they’re looking for people but because she is a strong worker.
We talked mostly about the interviews and who we’d like to see stay on. It’s so hard to have to pick since I’ve gotten the chance to work with everyone. I mean of course I know who I don’t want to see come back. Granted it’s just two people. I got along with everyone else. Even Zoe, who truthfully I really didn’t like at first, but since she’s worked more and relaxed way more, she’s actually pretty cool. I know she just means well. Same with Rob. I also want Laura to stay on, she’s just so cool. One of those people you talk to and hear about their adventures, and are just like, I want to be you! It’ll be interesting to see who stays for sure though. It’s kind of surreal, I feel like I’m waiting to find out I get to live on Mars or something. To be selected.
After we went our own ways I went to American Apparel again. I bought way more then I wanted to today. And I know I’m just going right back there again tomorrow. Only this time with my credit card, which even I know how stupid that is. Granted the over charged me $10 and I don’t have a receipt. Whatever I guess, I’ll just be way more careful tomorrow. They’re also selling their hangers, which I’m like, should I buy a wack load or? Guess we’ll find out tomorrow.
I really should clean my apartment. I’ve been saying this literally everyday so far. I really just need to do it and stop saying I will. In the words of my idol, JUST DO IT.

Short Day // 2
Today was literally a waste of a day, not going to lie. I pretty much did nothing.
I ended up working a shift at lush for my friend and had to be there for 7am so I was up pretty early since the buses suck. Granted I woke up fine and ready to go, even though I went to bed around 1am. On the plus side Starbucks was open and they were nice, at least the guy was. But then on the down side I ended up waiting around half an hour for my bus in the cold.
When I got to work though it was nice because I got to work with some cool people, whom we made a good team with. I liked that we helped each other out to get the work done. After counting the stock it was a quiet day till I finished my shift.
I was originally going to go back home but I decided to go to the Rideau Centre instead, and got to hit up some of my favorite stores. Got a wicked deal at AA, which I’m totally going back to shop more at tomorrow after I’m done work.
When I got home I watched some more Black Mirror, which I’m kind of obsessed with at the moment. One season left though. Then I took a nap and when I woke up called my mom. Then watched more black mirror, made some food, but not much. I haven’t been eating much lately. I’m trying to eat healthier and drink more walk though. The chocolate doesn’t help much.
I should’ve cleaned my apartment more, but I have the next few afternoons off as well as all day Friday. I just realized I’m off Thursday night,I can go to the art gallery guys. I haven’t been in a while.I hope the weather is nice. Plus I might see what the girls are up to, maybe a possible late lunch could happen.
Anywho, nothing eventful or crazy. Just a normal day in Ottawa.
Here’s to tomorrow!

New Years Day //  1
Happy New Year! I hope your hope you all had fun last night, let it be with people or by yourself. So far this year has started out rather nice. Let me tell you about the build up to now.
My day started off early but well rested. I don’t quite remember what I ended up doing the first half of the morning, but I do recall going to do some groceries. I know that much because I have a bunch of broccoli crowns sitting in my fridge that I have yet to figure out what to do with. I’m probably going to boil them. I can’t cook guys.
Anywho, after buying stuff that’s probably just going to sit in my freezer till I either forget about it or it gets freezer burn, I ended up going to my final Lush interview. The last few months I have been working at one of my local Lush stores as a seasonal worker. Am I going to get to stay on? Who knows. The interview went by rather fast but I felt like I gave my best, and if anything I am thankful for the experience I have been given and the friendships I was able to make while working there.
After the interview I went to Bayshore to see Bae aka Ashley. It took a bit to get out that way but well worth it to see her. She’s been having a hard time with boys and work lately, but she’s still young. She is like a little sister to me and I love having her as one of my close friends. I also ran into some old coworkers, which was pleasant, I would’ve liked to have seen different coworkers, but hey what can you do? The best part of my visit to Bayshore though was seeing my old Starbucks fam jam. I got to see pretty much the whole gang, minus a few since there’s just so many new people. Granted there was that really attractive guy. Anywho, they gave me a drink on the house and planned some coffee dates and what not. It warmed my heart to see them all again.
Afterwards I went to go see my actual Family. And my baby kitties. We had Chinese like we always do on new years and I got a new calendar for my bathroom. Oh, and I finally finished watching xmen days of futures past. Granted my mom wasn’t the most pleasant when she went to drop me off at the bus stop, but the lady I sat next to on the bus was.
When I got downtown I was worried that with everything that’s going on that I would probably end up sitting in my apartment while right around the corner fireworks would be going off and bands would be playing on the hill. Yes, I could’ve gone out there and been up there by myself. But I didn’t feel like surrounding myself with strangers, even though that’s kind of what I ended up doing.
I ended up going to this party I was invited to by my friend Sam. She lives quite close by so it wasn’t suppose to be hard to find her place. But it took me 30 minutes of wondering around in the snow with a dead phone that would only turn on for a minute at a time if held to my skin. Her house is literally in the weirdest spot I’ve ever seen and I’ve been to some interesting weirdest spots. When I got there I was excepting not that many people since that’s what her last to me had said. But there was a good handful of really nice people, who oddly all looked the same. Granted two were siblings, but one was the wife, and it was like a little odd. Everyone was super nice though.
We played some games, went to someones parents house, watched the count down, played some more games, and went back to Sams house. Her boyfriend ended up going to bed but her and I stayed up a little extra. It was the first time we actually got to hang out together. We normally just chatted daily when we worked the same days. It was nice, and I hope its the start to another great friendship. We talked a lot, ate some late night snacks, and watched Rick & Morty until we were basically passing out. I truthfully couldn’t of asked for a better night.
In the morning, though really it was the afternoon, we watched some netflix until I was like I should peace. We said our goodbyes and I was greeted with a friendly happy new year literally right after walking onto the sidewalk.The sun was shining and there was just something fresh about the day. The bus ride was short and the walk home joyful. I even chatted with a neighbor, who seemed super sweet. Then the rest of the day I simply cleaned my apartment and watched some tv. I’m glad today was super relaxing. Not sure how I feel about working at 7am tomorrow, but we’ll see.
With that I’m going to call it a day.
