My 20th Birthday

On the 28th I celebrated my 20th Birthday. It was much better than I expected it to be.
One of my friends came up to visit, my cousin ended up bailing on me. I have some really great cousins....
So besides that we dragged ourselves out of bed early to go to Cora's. My friend got the fruit plate, which I don't remember it's name specifically. I got the Strawberry Satisfaction, and it was the biggest thing I have ever seen, and needless to say I never finished it. I left a tip, sadly mostly in pennies because that is all I have for change, but it was very amusing.
We stopped by at a tattoo shop that I know is really good because everyone talks about. I will be getting my first tattoo August 2nd so stay tuned for that. :)
Unfortunately I did have to work on my birthday but it could have been a lot worse, considering I didn't work until 3. My friend also brought me strawberry shortcake. <3 I managed to get home early because the boss let me go.
We went to a really nice pub/restaurant with amazing food, and drinks. It was an absolute blast. I have never had so much fun for my birthday. Except for maybe that street dance when I turned 18.
My friend helped me finish my strawberry kitchen set, I already owned the teapot, and I now have the sugar bowl, cream jug, and salt, and pepper shakers. She also got me a cute little gold heart necklace. Another friend who came along for the restaurant got me a giant Totoro.
I have been mostly working, but my hours have been cut, but not as bad as when I worked at McDonald's. I managed to get some time off in the next two weeks to go home, and visit which I am rather excited about.

Still Rather Frustrated

I am still rather frustrated about work, and them cutting my hours.
They have done it again today, and it wasn't as bad. I finally have my shifts for this week, and that is kind of alleviating some of the stress I have.
I feel like I don't fit in, and most of the time I just want to disappear. I hate that feeling. I do like some of the people there. Some of them are nice to me. ♥ I believe some of them would be great friends.
There was some fun at work today. We were all singing along to Taylor Swift's Love Story, and a few other songs on the radio. It was fun.
I've been so distressed, and there is only one person I want to talk to. I just don't want to be the one to start the conversation. I hope they start talking to me soon.

Falling Into More of a Mess

Once again, I have been cut hours, they sent me home three hours after my shift started. Who the hell schedules 23 people to work over lunch?! Send home the whiny little high schoolers who complain about that job, because it's oh so hard. They just hired more people too, I understand the high turnover rate, but a lot of people can't even handle the first few days. I still don't have my schedule, and I asked for it this morning, and I got a I will get it for you, and bring it out, and for the three hours I was there I never got the damn thing! Liar. I promised someone back home that I wouldn't cry at work up here, and I did. All be it no one seen it, or noticed, but I still failed to keep that promise.
My friend was right I can't do the crew trainer job, because I don't understand it, and I don't know what it is, the same with management. I will forever be unhappy at my current job.
I called Dad, and I get stop crying, and do what you got to do. No one cares.
I went to the mall later, I had to find a dress to wear for my friend's wedding that I will be attending. I found one thankfully, and I love it. I also got one of those candied apples I love so much. It was so busy in the mall, and it's only Easter for goodness sake! I had also gone grocery shopping right after work for some much needed food.
