I wrote the longest paper that I can remember ever writing last night. Okay, not long in length-only 4 pages. But it was over Japanese cultural identity and a tiny glimpse into Shintoism. Basically I didn't hardly understand what I was writing about. Between having to read and re-read and re-read the material to try to understand and plain not being excited about this paper I had to write, it probably took upwards of 3 hours to write last night.
Moving right along...
Work has been going alright. I don't feel like I've had a ton of customer experience yet in the store, so I'm still rusty as to how to help customers, since most of them that come in are just walking around the Plaza looking for something to do. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the menial tasks I've been doing to fill my time, but I was hired as a seasonal worker to interact with customers as they come in so that the regular workers can help with the bigger issues if they're there for registry, design studio, buying furniture, etc. I'm sure it will get more interesting and fast-paced as the holiday season approaches.
Speaking of the holidays, I'm so excited for Thanksgiving. If my work schedule works out that I can go home, then I'll go home for Thanksgiving day and be back for Black Friday. If it doesn't work out that way, then I'll just spend Thanksgiving up here. Either way I hope to go volunteer a bit at the Little Sisters, because I haven't seen them since AUGUST! Crazy!!
Alright, well, time to go get ready for the day. Have a good one, readers!
Wow! Your job will be craziness once the holidays set in, to be sure. But I'm sure it will be a blast! And volunteering with the Sisters shall be awesome-I'm so happy for you!!
