So today was my first day at the new job. I didn't do too much, just answered phone calls and filed paperwork (exciting I know!) I probably could have done more if my boss wasn't the female Michael Scott (if you don't get my comparison just watch an episode of The Office and it will all come together, haha). But it wasn't too horrible, but made me realize working in sales is not something I want to do forever, but the pay is pretty good so I can save up some money. The hardest thing i will have to get used to is not getting a hour break, we only get a half a hour one, which is by far too short of a time if you ask me (but I don't think anyone really is, haha!)
So the first day went ok, we will have to see how the rest of the week goes.

shake rattle and roll
Ok so I'm not even going to begin apologize for me lack of updates because if I did we would all be here for a very long time, but I am sorry.
So in the last couple of month nothing interesting happened, but within the last couple of weeks it seems lots has happened.
1. I experienced my very first earthquake. It was a very bizarre experience as for the first couple of seconds I thought it way my legs that were being all wobbly, but then I realized that the rest of the store was wobbling as well, haha! Then for the next couple of seconds I stood around trying to remember what one is suppose to do in an earthquake, and by the time I remembered something about moving under a door frame it was over. But thankfully it wasn't too bad where I live any the only thing that happened at the apartment was some things shifted on their shelves.
2. I've been applying for a new job as I was growing tired of working at Borders.
3. I got a new job! Nothing too exciting, I will be working with my roommate at the tile place she works at. I will be working with contractors and making orders, definitely not something I plan on doing forever, but the pay is very nice so I will be able to save up more money.
4. Because of the new job I got to put my two weeks notice into Borders, it was a very bitter sweet moment, bitter because I still really like everyone I work with and I will be very sad not getting to see them everyday, sweet because I am so very ready to be done with Borders.
So that is basically all the news of LA, and I know I have said this before but this time I will really try my best to actually update this more often.
