I don't like working at Starbucks right now because I feel like I could use my knowledge and heart for something that is actually worth my time and effort. I just feel like I'm wasting away my life at Starbucks at what I'm doing there isn't really anything I want to do and its not like they really need me there. Whereas if I could find a job doing what I want to do (ie Helping Children) I could actually feel like I'm making a difference in this world.. I sent my resume off today to a couple of places.. and well, I'm hoping that ONE of them gets back to me... As I sent it off last week to a couple of places and I heard back from most of them BUT they were all places I didn't truly want to work at and I decided while I was talking to them that I didn't wanna start something I wasn't truly going to enjoy doing because it would just mean I would be leaving a job I didn't like to start another job I didn't like... One of the jobs had already starte me up with shifts for the following week.. I was like whoa! you haven't even met me all you've seen is my resume! and I decided based off of that I did not want to work for that company.. I want to earn my position not just be given it...
therefore overall, cross your fingers that the ONE I applied for tonight gets back to me this week!!!
...So, I decided tonight that Jess and I are paying too much for rent and I decided to look elsewheres, yes we are on a lease HOWEVER I believe we can get out of the lease if we need too.. spending over $280 a week for one room shared is crazy! and well yes Australia is expensive... BUT not THAT expensive.. so I started looking for another place today, and I found MANY MANY MANY other places that are around $150-$200 shared bedrooms... which would be way more affordable for us, as we are trying to save money to travel later on rather than living paycheck to paycheck for rent... BUT, then again, we may endup staying here because we have made this place 'home...' BUT if I can find something 'better' then I will... as everyone I have talked to from work said that $280 for a shared room is crazy and we are being taken adventage of because we are 'from out of town'... and well f-that!
Today I worked my first Saturday and lets just say I would work every Saturday of my life at Starbucks... It was SO nice and relaxed.. there was no stress at all.. I guess its just different on the weekends because its not really all business people as thats how it is during the week...
Tonight I made 'Lamb Burgers!' I added red pepper, onions, oatmeal, eggs, garlic, and basil - lets just say 'yummy!!!' :) I think tomorrow I am going to try to bake me a loaf of bread with my rice flour that I got today as well... I will let you know how that goes since I've never made anything with rice flour let alone made bread before in my life...
well, its after 1am and I'm tired so off to bed I go.. tomorrow I'm planning to venture to the other gym because my gym is closed on sundays... but OMG my tummy is SO sore and it hurts to walk... my legs are super ubber tired... BUT I love the feeling of working out!!! :)
Hope you are all staying cool! As Australia is currently a bit nippy and windy... I have yet to go without my jacket to work... and I've actually been wearing my jacket on the floor when I'm at work which is something I don't really do often... so its a bit cold! :) but its nice...
well, g'night and sweet dreams...
love always,
dayyyyy
