Update

So i haven't written in about 2 months. I'm so bad at keeping up with this. When I do think about writing, I think nothing interesting has happened lately. Over Christmas I enjoyed spending time with the family. I didn't work much at night, worked mostly during the day. I was in charge of selling gift cards at the mall for Texas Roadhouse. So I made up the schedule, and set everything up. It felt kind of good taking on this leadership position. It really helped my manager out too, which is always a good thing to do. :) I was also sick over Christmas. About four days before Christmas I was hit with the flu, or something similar. It was not a happy time for me. I went to the doctor, and after a panic attack and two shots, i started feeling better, so by the time Christmas hit I just had a cold. On top of being sick I had this really bad cough though. I sounded like I was coughing up a lung for almost two months, it's just now almost gone. Ended up on quite a few antibiotics to get rid of it.
At work we have a new general manager. Very few of us us like him. He's just kind of dumb. He acts like he knows stuff when he doesn't at all, and then tries to tell us something that is right when everyone knows it is wrong (like what kind of beers we sell). I don't know, he's trying, but there's a lot of changes going on, and he's been hiring quite a few new people that we don't need because it's the slow part of the year. Makes everyone think there is some firing that will be going down soon. On the bright side, I won the gift card sales contest. i sold about $2100 in gift cards so I won a new 32" flat screen LCD TV. However, I already own two tvs, so I am selling this prize to a coworker. It's pretty nice.
I am also getting to bartend. I started training this past Monday. I should be behind the bar on my own in about 3 weeks. I am so excited about that. After two years, I'm finally getting my shot. I have noticed one hard thing about being behind the bar. When you're behind the bar, you're not allowed to leave the bar, because there's only one bartender at a time. At least when I'm serving if I'm having a bad night, or customers are being jerks I can go into the back and vent to the other servers. I can't do that as a bartender, I have to be friendly and happy the whole time.
The last couple things going on... One, I've heard from 6 law schools so far. 5 have rejected me (Boston College, Boston University, Cornell, Georgetown, and University of Virginia) and 1 has wait listed me (American University). I still have quite a few out, so I've still got a lot of waiting to do, which is really hard. My patience is truly being tested. Lastly, last week, I got to go on a date for the first time in about two years. :-D I served a guy last Monday and gave him my number, well actually one of my coworkers stole his credit card receipt before I could give it back to him, and wrote my number and I just didn't scratch it out. He texted me that night and we went out on Tuesday. He took me to dinner at Olive Garden and a movie, Book of Eli. It was a great night. A very casual, get to know you thing. We went out again on Thursday. We went bowling, and then just talked for the rest of the night. It was definitely a great time, and he was very polite and super cute! Unfortunately... he lives in Baton Rouge, LA. Oh well... C'est la vie! :)
