Rockin' the new year
Well...it's 1:05 AM and I can't sleep...even though I'm waking up in 7 hours, 40 minutes.
And why do I need to wake up so soon might you ask? Because I have to be at Papa Razzi! Yes, I've finished training, including the memorized tests, and so now I'm serving. Now I'm not going to lie, the first dinner shift scared the shit out of me (Olivia and Nikki can attest as they were so generous and nice to come out and sit in my section...even when I had to ignore them because I was freaking out about my other tables...that's what best friends are for!) But as each day goes by, I'm getting the hang of it more and more. I still have to remind myself to breath sometimes, but I'm getting used to the hustle and bustle of the day. Also, it's nice to finally have some cash in my pocket. I found that working at Club WS would give me a good paycheck, but I would spend it all going out to dinner or commuting into Boston. Now, without Boston in the picture, that money is going towards paying loans or credit card bills (I paid $500 today...HOLLA!) Not to mention the people who work at Papa Razzi are amazingly nice. Not only are they chill and friendly, meaning they joke around and have fun while doing their jobs (something that was frowned upon at WS) but they are also so careful to ask if everything is ok or if they can help me with anything that might be stressing me out. So what this all boils down to is: even though it's gross to touch other people's food, and that my paycheck is pretty much voided from taxes so I only live off tips, AND I get stressed out if I get too bombarded by people...It's nice to be doing something that I like for a change.
Now, what else is going on in my life?
SYDNEY:
Well, as far as Sydney goes, I'm still preparing to leave. I haven't bought my plane ticket yet because I honestly don't know when I'm leaving (either end of Feb or middle of March). But that doesn't mean I'm not SO FREAKING EXCITED!!!
FRIENDS:
I got to spend New Years with Chris, Nikki A, Olivia AND my sister this year, which was pretty cool. It was nice to just have a relaxing time. I've seen Nikki and Olivia a few times in 2009 already and it's so relieving to have good friends from home still.
GWEN AND JIM CAME!!! WA-WHOOOOOOOO!!! And boy did I have a blast with them...South Campus Reunion was AH-MAHZING!!! After some quality Gwen/Alex/Christine time one night, that included watching part of A Goofy Movie of course, all 5 us Treb Alums in Boston (John, Jim, Gwen,Christine, and I) + Cate went to Jake Ivory's for a CRAZY night of dancing and singing, that included a live performance of Signed, Sealed, Delivered. Just like old times. It. Was. Great.
And now it's 1:38...wake up in 7 hours, 7 minutes....booo
Till next time.
