Anyways, college. So far it has been pretty stressful figuring everything out. For those who don't know, I am horrible at making decisions. I'm timid because I definitely do not want to make the wrong choice! I think picking housing almost caused a heart attack! I was looking/researching for a good two weeks before I finally made a decision...haha I swear it's not procrastination. Hopefully as all my plans get settled in I will feel more at ease and will finally be able to relax! I am looking forward to go check out the dorms I am gonna be living in! I am going to take my mom with me sometime in september to check um out! Plus, it would be nice to have a second opinion (:
As for $$....right now I work at Pier 1 Imports! I totally love it and the store! I could definitely spend a good amount of my paycheck there if I didn't have to pay for college! I work a good 20 hours a week plus these past sunday nights we have had work from 7pm-3am for our store seasonal changes! Yup! We already have alllll our halloween stuff out! Costumer service is #1! I have to talk to EVERY customer and make sure they are finding everything okay, tell them about out pier 1 card and talk about seasonal/store sales and clearances. I like the customers that like some opinion on decorating their house because I am pretty good at it! I think the craziest thing that has happened so far is Michaels (the store) called Animal Control on a car in front of Pier 1 because it was 100 degrees out and there was a dog left inside of the car for more than an hour! We announced it over our intercom to see if the owner of the car was in our store, just in case. Well, the lady that we were checking out freaked out and was saying that if it were her she would break into the car and "steal that poor puppy from that devil of an owner". She went on a rant for awhile saying things like "what kind of person does that" and "we should lock her in a car and see how she feels"....needless to say she was kinda nuts. She left and my co-worker and I thought it was all over BUT about ten minutes later another lady walked into the store. She came up to us and asked if we had surveillance on our parking lots or had police monitoring the area. We said no. WELL, heres the crazy part ladies and gents.... she continues on to say...wait for it....someone shattered her window and STOLE HER DOG! And we all knew who it was.... Her face was totally blank and her eyes started to water :( I felt horrible! Now we always watch out for that one window breaking, dog stealing customer but she hasn't been in since.
For a little extra cash I am applying for a second job. I don't want to but I also don't want to be short on cash in college. I save everything now. Shopping has always been a horrible addiction but you'd be glad to know I haven't bought anything in a whole month and a half now! Hopefully schedules will all work out and I will have one less thing to worry about! As of now I am happy with present plans and am hoping for the best in my future!
