Alright so days 23-25 have officially just gone by in what seems to be a daze. A scattered mix of recollections that just might have something to do with the amount of alcohol that I've consumed in that time. lol. I'm just kidding.
Both Thursday and Friday I worked at Keatings as a hostess, it has got to be one of the most boring jobs out there. I seriously just stand there, 3 feet from the door and greet the people who walk in. I have to explain to them how the restaurant works, like the fact that we have 3 different dinning areas all with different menus and I have to try and get people to not just stay on the ground floor because they don't know what else to do. But! I cant seat them, just stand there and look pretty, I do that so naturally that theres really no work to it at all. lol ;) J/k But I get to meat and talk to many different people, some who don't speak a word of English and all I know is that their hungry. But thats the whole reason I'm here isn't it? I waitress all this next week so that should be better.
Other than that I've done allot of sitting around sleeping and just lying in my bed. Thinking... allot of thinking.
I tagged along with Trevor Thursday to go see the film 'Unknown'. It was actually really good, I enjoyed it. Then yesterday We decided that we would go out for my birthday because every one works all weekend. It was a great time! We met up with my friend Sara S from back home who just got in to Dublin 4 days ago on a work visa as well. We went to 4 bars, loosing Trevor after the first one because he had just given blood and was not really up to a whole night of drinking. The third one did him in and thats every strange. A nice little bit of information for all my Canadian loved ones... after you give blood in Ireland they give you a bag of chips, a chocolate bar and a pint of Guinness!! Only in Ireland I swear! Any way after it was just us girls, it was great we went to fun bars with great music and even better fellow drinkers who just continued to amuse us as the night went on and soon in to the morning. I was about 4:30 when Whitney and I got home grabbed some blankets and crashed on the floor in the living room so we didn't wake Trevor up. I was out like a light... but not for long.
2 hours later I was woken up by my alarm telling me that it was time to get up to meet with Toddar on msn. I thanked the fact that I didn't change out of my clothes the night before, put my shoes on and headed out. The meeting for the most part was not to bad. Besides the incompetent guy behind the desk at the shop and the crappy computers it was alright. It got a little emotional... scratch that... I got a little emotional. But I'm glad we talk about it and for the most part work through most things. I'm glad it hasn't been awkward, for us anyway. The people sitting beside a girl who is trying not to cry to hard while it looks like shes talking to herself might find it awkward. lol... but who cares. Most of all I have to say that I'm glad that I'm not angry. Everyones always angry after they break up, for various reasons, especially after a relationship thats lasted this long. It's a terrible feeling and one that I didn't want to experience, but after these 4 days I think that it's safe that I'm not angry in the least bit. It's a relief and something thats going to allow us both to work it all out in the best way possible and stay friends. Right now thats all that matters to me. We're continuing to make Internet 'dates'(and I'm using the work loosely. lol) Its weird because I still find myself wanting Tuesday (night at midnight Canadian) to come soon so that I can see & talk to him.
After an extended conversation with him I went to meet Sara for breakfast. I was like 45 mins late, so we just had coffee. It was good I talked to her and heard her opinions on what I should do. We discussed things about life while looking for a hair straightener for her. When she finally decided against the expensive cosmetic item and settled for bobby pins, we went our own way. I went home and got a call from Ashley. We talked for a quite a while. Just to talk. Shes coming over for about a week, she'll be here on Friday and I am so unbelievably excited! It's going to be great! After that I took a nice long bath, kinda fell asleep because we have one of those curved back tubs, so comfortable. Got out because I thought it might look a little suspicious if I drowned in the bath tub. (Believe me I'm not that upset really.lol) Then napped, it was soposed to only be for half an hour, but 3 hours later I crawled out of bed and decided that Mac Donald's Sounded good. With no Aaron or Toddar to yell at to go get it for me I had to put my shoes on and walk the 2 minuets to go get it myself! It was good. Not like back home. Every things smaller here. So like I told my mom I'm on a diet whether I like it or not. ;) The menus aren't the same and they don't have 10 packs of nuggets. Oh well just something else to add to the list of things that are different here. But it was still artery clogging good. Now I'm just sitting in the living room having no luck with trying to check my e-mail,while Trevor reads.I might throw in another load of laundry then head off to bed wallow in the bliss of my last few hours as a 'teenager'. I'm going to make up a list of things to do tomorrow to keep myself busy...every one works so I might go see a movie, take myself out for dinner or I might have a box of Macaroni from home.Either way it will be alright... nothing I'm not expecting.
