MERRY CHRISTMAS!! doesnt really feel like it though... not sure why... there just isnt that Christmasy vibe. had our roast and Thai fishcakes, and cocktail prawns and fruit punch, and i made a chocolate cake - Death By Chocolate.. Tash says it's good, i'm about to try it soon. we feasted and everything. we exchanged gifts. and yet, i dont feel as joyful and triumphant as i should. i think i know of a partial reason for this.

it was forecasted to be a scorching 39 degC today!! and boy did it feel like it. we sweat even while sitting down doing nothing. but thank my lucky stars, it rained awhile ago. and now the dusk sky is a beautiful orange with clouds spread around. and the air isnt heavy anymore, and there's an occasional cool breeze coming through my window. i feel good now, especially after a shower. so i shall treat myself to some tea and Chocolate Death. haha!

ok wow. half a month and i've only managed 3 entries?? hell no!! haha. well i HAVE been working. and too tired to bother. SPEAKING of work! i want to KILL Conan.. this other guy that works at Pancakes. i arrived at 1030 this morning, and didnt stop working till at least 1!! ok it may have been oddly crowded at that time for at least an hour, but still it was like i was the only one on the floor. he even had to cheek to tell me "Thank God you're here!" when i got there.. maybe he should do some work and not depend on others? that might help... erhh.

anywayyy. yeah it's beginning to look alot like christmas. well not really. just the stress of getting gifts for people! i feel like giving everyone cards. so lazy. mehh. oh and i'll be working on Boxing Day. i get double time and a half! which means my hourly rate multiplied by 2.5!! which means ~$12 X 2.5 = ~$30 perhour BABY!!! and i'm working for 3 hours, so it's ~$90!!! OHMYGODDD! but that's before tax. but WHATEVER! happy daysss....

OMG! one week to christmas! i havent bought anything! ok i HAVE to do it tmr. working in the day, thankgod for late night shopping. shouldnt be too difficult though since i more or less know what i'm getting for most people. yay. christmas. i really hope i'm not working on Christmas day, but it's sunday. if we're open i'm sure i'll be stuck. mehh. but hooray once more. i'm still getting paid! :D

Sera left this morning... she managed to postpone her flight one more time... so yeah. but she made plans with the boys last night, so she couldnt hang with Lin and i. and when she called on the way home.. it was a little choked up.. Lin and i are somewhat sceptical of what she told us though.. it didnt sound right... hmm i just hope everthing turns out. *sigh*

ohhhhhh my toes hurt..... did another closing shift today. more like closing SHIT. if not for this stupid chinese woman, we could have left before 4pm!! the bloody woman decided to spendwaste our time by staring into space... Paul had to tell her to leave!! bitch...

anyway... in all my frustration, i'm still very happy i'm working. i've got just over $600 in my account now!!! WOOOOT! oh but for some unknown reason, i woke up with a swollen eye this morning... freaking out.. how am i supposed to serve customers looking like i did?? thankfully i got some tablets from the Broadway pharmacy, and the swelling went down in no time. HOORAY for medical advances.

hmmm. brisbane is getting very quiet nowadays. when Lin's up at Bribie, i dont see anyone. that's also when i'm working, but that's another story. and Sera is leaving this Sun, i mean, TOMORROW! *sobs* and i dont know when i'll get to see her next... not sure what's going on with her situation, but i sure hope the adults dont fuck things up for her. i mean, she's 20 for fuck's sake. let her make some decisions in her life. if she screws things up for herself, she's got the right to make ammends.

i just hope this Summer isnt full of disappointments...
