Progress progress progress...

I'm just going to blather on as I can't be bothered with a properly structured post right now. I'm running off about 4 hours sleep and I don't cope too well with less than half my normal amount of sleep, so on with the show!

Firstly, I'm trying something new and exciting. I've always been saying that I'd love to get a job behind a bar, and now I'm on my way to making that a reality. I got my Responsible Service of Alcohol License and did a bar skills course very very recently, and in the past week have handed out almost 50 resumes across my home city and the surrounding areas that I have easy access to. I've already had 2 job offers, one that I turned down because it seemed dodgy, but I have accepted a trial shift for the second job working as a Glassy in a bar in the city. Even if It isn't a straight up bar job, it provides me with hospitality experience and avenues to progress through in-bar training when its quieter. I look forward to the 15th of the month!

I also got a girls number about two weeks ago. This is the same girl that I fawned over a few months back who I worked with at McDonalds. We seemed to hit it off after a random encounter at a different McDonalds where she was just getting something to eat. I've tried calling her 3 times since then without any luck so I hope she didn't get cold feet or just give me her number with no intention of ever picking up when I call. I'm really sweet on her, but if she keeps playing "Hard to get," I will just move on, as I don't like childish games.

Parents have now said they'll pay for me to get driving lessons (of course when I asked about getting paid motorbike lessons instead, they got mad, so I'm going to have to do those with my own money and most likely in secret). I've looked through a bunch of schools, the price difference is really minimal, I'm just going to be checking to see if they do the service where you start wherever you start, and when you finish, you arrange to be dropping yourself off somewhere, like outside where you work or to a friends place or even home. Convenience convenience :)

I have been excersizing most days, though after some of my resume hand-in days and some really busy days I don't go on the treadmill because my legs are already super sore from 5+ hours of walking all over the place, so it is probably still fine. I'm still trying to eat healthy where I can.

What else is there... not much else to report really. Making progress on all fronts :)

I love being me. If there is something about me that I don't love right away, I will make it so that I improve it or change it so that I do love me entirely. I will conquer the challenges that stand in my way, and live the life that I want to, no matter how hard that is to do, I will find a way.
