An Update and Moar Photos!

Alright, as you know, I'm doing the August Break on here. Honestly, the prompts proved to be a bit hard at times and some I didn't do on their days (whoops).

On the job hunting end, I had an interview with another bank. Turns out that one that I previously interviewed for recommended me to the other bank when they realized their needs changed and I didn't have the requirement they were now seeking (in this case, being bilingual). Insert "you da real MVP" meme here. Seriously, if I score the job, I'm sending the other manager not just a thank-you card, but maybe some chocolates or gourmet coffee.

After that, not much else. Sorry, gang. Apparently, I'm taking a break from other things other than this dang blog.

Day 9: In My Bag...

The bag was a birthday gift from my best friend. I haven't seen her since then. Life gets in the way sometimes. I miss her.










Day 10: Drink

Regional beer! :D
















Day 11: Handwriting

For those who can't read my handwriting: "If you're going through hell, keep going." - Sir Winston Churchill















Day 12: On the Table

My desk is pretty cluttered. My grandfather looks on in disapproval.











Day 13: My Guilty Pleasure

So many nail polishes! I have plans to donate a good amount of them to women's shelters in my hometown.









Day 14: Hands

My left hand holding the jewelry I normally wear. Prepping before a closing shift at my job.












Day 15: Blue

Bullet journal OMG










Day 16: Look Down

Day 17: Bookshelf

You see the books between "The Lottery" collection and Bitchfest? Those are my three all-time favorite books.








Day 18: Jump

An action shot of me acting my shoe size and not my age.







Day 19: Black + White

My mom's cat, an outdoor tom she named Toby. He's very young, about four years old, and quite a talker. And a huge whiny baby atop that. XD

Photos and Updates... whee!

Okay, so I did take a bit of a break from the blog to do the August Break photo prompts. I'm finding it tons of fun to take a picture and try to play with the prompt a bit. But I think too much time has passed without anything from yours truly, so let's fix that, shall we? This post will be in two parts: Updates and then August Break Photos Part 1.

Updates:

I had another interview with a local credit union for a part-time teller job. Seemed to go pretty well. I really liked the manager and her assistant, they seemed like really nice and laid-back ladies. I would love for the manager to be my future boss. Well, all the managers I've met would all be excellent future bosses. But I'm trying not to be too picky. XD

And since my period has sidelined me, I haven't gotten too much writing done, which bums me out something serious.

What makes me mad is that I have so much important (and not so important) stuff to do and my cramps and hot flashes are preventing me from getting things done. It's very frustrating. But all I can do is take iboos (my shortened way of saying and spelling ibuprofen) and wait 'til it kicks then, and run with that as long as possible until I'm sidelined again. I'm just thankful that I work tomorrow and then I have a few more days to recover. God, sometimes I hate being a woman and this is especially one of those times.

Okay, with all that said, onto the photos!

August Break Photos Part 1:

Day 1: Lunch

This is the lunch I packed for my evening shift at the bookstore.


Day 2: Pattern

This cup belonged to one of my co-workers. Since we were doing a Frozen-themed event, naturally, she was celebrating along with those throwing the event itself.


Day 3: Window

This is my view every morning when I wake up. Even with bonus kitty tail! But it is usually my kitty, not my sister's (in this case).


Day 4: Orange

A book I'm currently reading.


Day 5: Three

The pens I'm using every day to keep my food/exercise journal and my new Bullet Journal.


Day 6: Reflection

Getting ready for an upcoming interview!


Day 7: Today Is...

A photo of my paternal grandfather, who died over seventeen years ago. I recently got this frame for it. He now sits at my desk and keeps watch as I work on my writing.


Day 8: Selfie

Me with my current read (Writing Wild by Tina Welling) while sitting in my reading nook. [Man, my sister was right. I do make a weird 'reading' face! XD]
