We can empathize with manatees

Well, hello, world!  It's been much too long since I've written - almost a month!  I can't believe how quickly time goes by these days.  I wake up at random times, eat food when I get the chance, drink a LOT of fluids to stay healthy and to try to get at least some nutrients, and it seems like I am constantly working.  I'm happy to say that I've made a large dent in my tuition and I hope to pay all of that off in the next few months.  Unfortunately, my loans are now out of the six month deferment period and I have to start making payments on those now as well.  Those payments can be a lot smaller, though, which will help me start to save up for a car!!

These last few weeks have been crazy.  I worked at the State Fair and I wish it never had to end!  Working there was incredibly fun and even, dare I say it, a huge stress-reliever.  I basically sat in the sun and fooled around all day.  It was amazing.

Work at the grocery is becoming extremely discouraging.  It seems like every morning, I hear that I need to work faster and harder than I already am.  However, I feel as if I am performing my job to the best of my abilities!  Based on strength alone, management should have known that I am bound to be a little slower than some huge burly man or someone who has been working there for over 20 years.  It's only been about 2 months.  Give me some time to continue improving, people!  I'm making some good friends, there, though, and it's been nice to talk to people my own age more often, since so many of my friends are back in school and everyone is busy (including me)!

On that note, I've been feeling a bit lonely lately, but it's nothing I won't be able to get through.  It's just really hard working all the time and not having any time to see anyone.  It's incredibly frustrating.  I'm still trying to get a full-time job as a receptionist or something, but it's difficult to look for jobs when I'm working so much!!

Anyways, I'm about to leave for work.

I wish I could just wear this spandex thing instead of my dumb uniform and a sweater, cause, let's be honest.  I look pretty hot in it.  bahahahah.  Work time.  bai.
