I just got back from my first night of work. We close at 11 but of course there were customers in the store until 11:20. Typical of people not caring about others who have to stay and work and not shop around.
The store is amazing, it's so cute and organized I can really see myself getting into everything. I already know all of the characters from Sanrio so it makes it fun to talk to customers and engage them in conversation about new things and such.
I'm working 40 hours a week currently Tues, Wed, Thurs, Sat, and Sun since I go to school on Monday and Friday. This may be suicide, though I need the money. Since I bike to my job I won't ever have to worry about parking/gas/all of that extra income spent on it, and in the meantime I'll be getting exercise! I love being in total control of my transportation and not having to worry about everything else involved, though I do have to watch out for pedestrians etc it's not so bad. It's fantastic biking at night with barely anyone else around and having my ipod play the music into my ears where I almost zone out and completely enjoy everything regarding the trip. After almost a full 8 hours of standing, biking alleviates a lot of the pressure on my back and it seems to help my legs/feet since they finally are being put into a different situation.
It's 12:30am now and I work 2-10:30pm tomorrow however I have a lot of homework due on Monday that I know I wont' do tomorrow, so therfore I am probably going to stay up late tonight maybe 5-6am, drink a Coke for energy and work work work!
I'm so excited right now :) Though I will be exhausted, I know it's worth it and I can help my mom in terms of money and loans with my school which is most important to me.

Even when I'm making 12.28 an hour it doesn't cover my loans!!!! i'm so happy you found a job, i can picture you enjoy the downtown lights biking home from work (lucky bitch!) i miss you lots, glad to see things are working out (until you become overwhelmed and suicidal once finals start arriving). love you!
I love all the elevated pressure I feel when I bike!
