well hey! i realized i never blog anymore...just out of the habit. also because i feel like i never have any time anymore!! well the big updates are that i found 2 temporary jobs before i go back to school! it's seriously been a miracle...no joke a miracle. i work at aeropostale and in the banquet kitchen on temple square. the miracle is that temple square will give me whatever hours i'm available and aero is giving me tons of hours even though i'm just a temp! i worked 52 hrs in the last 7 days! whew i'm exhausted but i feel like i'm actually contributing to the world again and that makes me happy :) i have so many new skills and so many funny experiences that i should share with you but i'm so tired. maybe i'll give you just a sampling...
new skills:
*chopping fruit...legit style
*peeling potatoes with a knife instead of a potato peeler
*making chicken parmesan for 75 people
*working a cash register
*folding clothes very professional-ly
*being fashion-savvy
funny stories:
*dishing up the honey butter wrong. "THIS LOOKS LIKE POO! DUMP IT OUT!" turns out it was for a dinner where the whole 1st presidency was attending...VIP...nobody told me!
*making cheese balls for 5 hours...they didn't turn out (not my fault...i was just the professional's little helper) and standing by the deep fryer for 3 hours sweating like a hot and getting burned on my arm
*not knowing how to fold up a ladder and my coworkers making fun of me...ok maybe you had to be there
*a lady calling the store saying she got home and 3 of her shirts weren't in the bag. "the short girl was helping me!!" haha that's me! i felt really dumb...how could i not give her three shirts but charge her for them? so she came back the store and we gave her three shirts. then the next day she called and she had found the original shirts!! she was very apologetic and i was very glad i wasn't that stupid :) maybe you had to be there for all of these...
anyways more to come! also i finally found housing! i'm going to live in the devonshire :) yay for not being homeless! it's fun cuz i'll in the same ward as my good buddies eric and matt. hopefully it'll be a fun semester. i'm getting pretty excited to get back to p-town!
