Waitressing and waiting for packages

This is what happens when you waitress at night: you serve people delicious looking food for five hours straight without eating a crumb yourself, then go home and consume half the house in your hunger. But none of it is as good as what you were serving customers! And then you're full and full of energy and you can't go to sleep for, like, forever.

So you stay up late and... blog? :)

I like my job, truthfully. Waitressing pays great and allows you the opportunity to interact with your community as they come in one by one to order pizza. It lets you meet interesting people. The perks: an occasional free pizza and good tips. The downfalls: sweat and pizza don't make a good perfume. And sleep is never close after a shift.

Thank goodness I go to college and am working towards a degree so I don't have to waitress forever! God was good to provide this job for the time being, but he is likewise good to allow me to attend Hope so I can have better jobs in the future.

I'm getting sleepy from all this blogging.... but on another note, I must say.... getting packages from Amazon is perhaps one of the most exciting things ever. When they are textbooks, the excitement is even greater! I'm not being sarcastic... my textbooks are things of beauty. I ordered approximately 13 works of art from Amazon, and waiting for them all to come is like waiting for Santa to come on Christmas Eve. Several came today: The Life of Frederick Douglass, Emerson's Prose and Poetry, and Short Stories by Edgar Allen Poe. I just want to dig in now, but then there'd be nothing to do this year at school now, would there? :)

Goodnight!
