Yay, it's Friday! I can sleep so much this weekend!
Okay, that might sound boring. A nineteen year old college student, and all I want to do this weekend is sleep. And sleep some more. And sleep a lot... I've had a really exhausting week! Several tests, lots of homework, and I basically lost my job. I say 'basically' because I haven't actually been fired. However, my boss told me he's 'not comfortable' scheduling me. In other words, I lost my job because I had to call in sick to work- once.
Now, in some ways I'm not upset about this. See, I don't like my boss. I don't like him at all. He's absolutely unprofessional and very frustrating to work with. He yells, he cusses, and he gets mad over really stupid things. For example, during my first shift I got yelled at because I was shaking the cinnamon wrong. Not that I put the wrong amount on, or put it in the wrong place, I was simply shaking it 'wrong'. This and numerous other 'offenses' got me in trouble, despite the fact that I had no training. He told me I had the job, scheduled me for a Friday night, and I just got thrown into the mix. On more than one occasion he would 'teach me' how to make a drink by demanding I watch him make it while helping customers and running the cash register. After only one of these 'lessons' I was expected to know exactly how to make the drink. Basically, my boss is crazy. But, still, I'm not excited to start looking for another job.
So, that's been my work situation. As far as school goes, it's been crazy. Most nights this week I've stayed up till about 3 AM trying to get all my homework and studying done. And, still, I'm getting behind. Man, homework is hard when you actually do it! This semester I'm holding myself to a new standard of academic commitment. I'm trying to get straight A's, and in classes that are pretty hard. (Biology, math...) So I'm kind of stressing. Last year if I got really busy, I could just let one assignment go by. However, that's not what excellent students do. So this year I'm doing every homework assignment, studying for every test and quiz, and going to every class. It's harder than I thought!
OH YEAH, I've also been really sick this week. Pretty much zombified since last Wednesday. Goodness, when it rains it pours! But this weekend.. it's all mine. I hardly have any homework, and no commitments. There's nothing I really need to do this weekend but sleep and relax. I'm so excited!!! :D
