SiCk and TiReD of irresponsible people!
Work yesterday was unbelievable...and not the good kind. I was in the best mood when I woke up and I figured nothing could change that...nothing. I was so wrong. I work at a hotel as a housekeeper, which may not be the most respectable job (according to my father), but it's a job and pays the bills. I was assigned 16 rooms to clean along with four other co-workers and the majority of those rooms were due outs (meaning the people were leaving and you have to make the room nice and clean for the next person). Due outs obviously take longer to clean and since 98% of our rooms were due outs I knew it was going to be a long day. But I was still in a good mood. Come first break, I realized that our one co-worker still hadn't shown up to work. When I called her she told me flat out that she was too tired to come to work. Too tired. come on people....I have gone to work when the night before I got maybe three or four hours of sleep.... Ok......so now we all had her 16 due outs on top of our 16 due outs. I ended up cleaning all my rooms except for making the beds, which later on a friend and fellow co-worker and I went around to all the rooms and made the beds. On top of all this, and mind you I was trying to stay cheery even though the moral had plummeted by now, front desk people were yelling at us to hurry up because people were mad they had to wait to check into their rooms.....ummm soooooo sorry...not. Like we could help it that one of our co-workers didn't show up and we all had over 20-some rooms to clean, AND that they were mostly due outs. It was ridiculous. I ended up punching out at 5pm.....super LoNg DaY if you ask me. I am hoping today is better....I mean I don't see how it could be any worse really......

That was one crazy dream. I swear the fuzz aren't out to get me or you. Unless there's something you haven't told me...
I'm going to miss you so much, hun. I'm going to miss our lunches at the PUB, movie nights with pizza and a random bridal mag, dying hair and talking for hours about life and its little quirks. But you know, it's only for a few months which will whiz by and we can talk tons online. You'll have to start taking your laptop to classes so that we can talk conveniently with the 4 hour time difference.
Then when I come back to the states we'll have tons of time to catch up and hang out together since we'll be living in the same house! I know you're going to have a great semester. A step up from the last, I'm sure. And you better tell me every little detail!
Love you!
