The Weekend 5 (Sunday, July 7th 2019)

Welcome to July!! Our weather has begun to behave finally it feels like Summer more of the time. Which is awesome. Now if we could only get to to the beach that would be very cool indeed. I know we tried once but you know where we stay more than 2hrs and for sure see the sun more than we did last time (heres a clue: we saw it none!)

1. 3rd of this month marked 15 years since my store Barnes & Noble closed for good. I spent like 3 weeks helping along with whoever was left close our store down. I wanted to just end it so badly I couldn't find work. I ended up not going to another B&N so they gave me a nice small check and I began my unemployment for the first time ever for me. I was in about a month before my job at Lego Store was picked up in August. I will never forget that job. It had its heart aches. But it had its good stuff too. Sure it included crushes on guys, me in college the whole time from beginning to end, and it ended with me unsure where to go next. I loved my store. They hated me at times my managers came and went and sometimes they hated me frankly badly. But still I loved it. I was planning to go full time and save up to move to Los Angeles. I was going to get a car and a license and move to LA slowly. This all before knowing how much experience I would have needed and didnt, nor how much all that would cost. I know its not like today but I bet 15 years ago it was still not cheap to live in LA. Still I had big dreams and I believed they would come true. I want that attitude back! The one there was when I thought nothing could stop my dreams. I believed in God I knew it would work out and I was all set to try when they lowered the boom on me in like March or April and few months later we said good bye. I miss you B&N I miss all of you and the ones I am still in contact with are very few. But yeah 15 years crazy stuff.

2. Work this week blah. At least I showed up all 5 days. I got my schedule fixed I hope for the thing trying to do on the 17th of this month. Really had to work for that one. I also should be getting sick pay for my day I missed last week when I sick. So that should work out and I will know that as of today will check into it. I am still sick btw but better. Thankfully for little things at work like we got new people THREE NEW PEOPLE! And because of that I can breath a sigh of relief. Well I can do it yes I can. Wait we got two new people I forgot the lady is not for us but for happy to help. Am I still going to try to transfer to another part of the store? I am unsure at this point. I still hate my job but the pressure is a bit less and the more I get help the better it does. Like leaving work in Saturday and having a person there in our team and not just some random person helped me leave in peace.

3. Show 4 was not bad at school. I am glad to say it went very smoothly. Despite the wifi acting up on campus yikes. Wait I Forgot I messed up 3x on the show. 3 OOPS my bads. I will live with that one. Live & learn. Its all learning since we still in school so yeah live and learn. But I love my show and I am working hard to keep it going good. Wish me luck!! Side note: I am working on getting a real job in radio & or an internship. With much prayers I am reaching out to stations. Music type does not apply I will take anything. I think in the end my biggest motivation for getting a car and license will be having a real job to need it for. THAT is a good reason if nothing else right?

4. Tuesday after my show over with I went back home to chill. Then me and my sister took the train down to the San Diego Fair. We only there like 4hrs but it enough. For food, a concert part of it and our one ride. And playing in the themed area (this year Wizard of Oz). Fun times. Exhausting but fun day.

5. The 4th of July got a late start. San Clemente our usual trip down the street park far away take forever to get there and back. Fireworks fun of course. Not like last year where we there hours before this time barely an hour before. Then Dennys for breakfast dinner. Sad they didnt bring back the red white blue pancake special this year they had it for years :(

Well that is all for now. Almost did the GYM on Monday but just ended up getting pizza and nothing else and then going back home. Oh well there is always next week. Have a great week everyone. This week after 2 full weeks will be slower. But still hope to do some stuff. See you all next one. God bless you always :)
