Frustrated...

I'm frustrated with everything.  And now it's starting to affect my appetite.  In the last 3 days I've barely eaten.  I'm hungry, yet I have no appetite.  This is starting to sound familiar, which I won't get into right now (maybe sometime in the future), but it's for a different reason.  I want to eat, I really do, but all this stress is just making me lose my appetite.  This is such an opposite effect from last semester where I ate a lot before tests, but this semester its the total opposite and I think it's also because of the lack of sleep.  All this stress is also giving me rashes which I've never had before.  I'm getting them on my stomach and my arms.  I really need some sort of support structure right now.  I don't get a chance to talk to my closest friends often anymore, I barely see family and I'm always holed up now trying to study or get work done.  I dunno.. I just hope to get through this semester....

It's Complicated...

... to explain this.  I feel depressed lately which I usually don't get and it's been getting worse lately.  I don't know what it is and it's hard to explain, if I have to, since I don't speak fairly much about my feelings or about myself for that matter.

I don't know if its all the stress, which I'm sure it is, but I just want everything to get better soon.  I really do need a break but even with Spring Break coming up in 2 weeks, it's not coming fast enough.  I don't think anyone understands how hard I'm working right now.  Yeah it seems that all I do at home is go on social networks and just laze around, but really I'm trying really hard to balance school and work at the same time.  I do try to make the effort to study and I do have work to be done for classes, but I don't think anyone understands how hard it is.  It's my last semester, but people just don't seem to care to leave me alone.  What's with the constant noise? What's with asking me to do something for you when you know I'm busy?  Why is it that when I really am doing something you'll come up to me when it's something not that important

I'm usually a calm person.  But everything is building up inside of me right now and I feel like I'm going to go crazy.  I'm so stressed, I'm tired, depressed and have a little anxiety and all this makes me want to cry.  I don't normally get these kinds of feelings since I'm always happy-go-lucky and laughing away at stuff but ... I don't know.  There's just some things going around in my head lately which isn't normal and I don't know what it'll take for it to go away.  Taking one day at a time.. we'll see how I feel in the morning.  Sleeping earlier than usual.  Not sure if It's a good decision since I still have to work on a lab report, but I just can't take it right now.

Horrible, Just Horrible..

I probably had the worst work experience i've ever had.  Usually when I encounter... interesting... people, I just laugh it off later, but I was so irritated today by all the dumbfuckery of rude and obnoxious people.

This one guy came in wanting to buy 11 dozen cupcake sized cakes.  I went to the back to gather 7 more boxes from the back, as the case in the front had 4 already there.  When I came out the guy had asked me if we were able to give him a separate box.  I went to the back to ask if that were possible and they told me to tell the guy that we can't do that since the cakes will probably topple over since the boxes are so big.  I came back out and told him but he said he was willing to take the risk.  I said I was sorry that were not able to do so and he started to get irate, telling me that he's buying 11 dozen of our cakes so why can't he do that.  Again I had apologized and, of course yelling AT me, he tells me forget it and walks out angry.  As if its such a big deal...

This one lady kept asking me questions.  I wouldn't mind so much since I like talking to the customers, but when she was asking really obnoxiously.  She kept asking the same questions over and over again, not only that, she insisted on seeing the decorations in person, even tho we do have images of them on the cakes already. She also kept asking about having a box for the cake or making sure the cake was wrapped.  It was just chaos with this lady.  And when she asked me about seeing the decorations in person, she took a good 5-10 min talking to someone else even though I was standing right there waiting to show her what she had JUST asked for. 

The lady that she was talking to also got on my nerves.  She kept asking questions as well, but even more obnoxious questions.  Which cakes are fresh (um all of them)?  Which cakes were just recently made (umm.. really.. all of them)?  What are the ingredients, What chocolate do we use, where are the ingredients coming from, blah blah blah. its like... come on lady really?  If you got a problem with it, then make your own damn cake.

The last lady that came in right before I was done with my shift was the WORST of the day.  Coming in with a coupon for another store, she told me she was able to use it here.  I questioned her twice about it and the more I asked, I could tell she was getting irritated.  I asked my boss and she told me it was alright and the lady started gloating like "SEE, I TOLD YOU I COULD USE IT HERE!!" and she was basically telling my boss that I was giving her problems, but why is it my problem for questioning her for coming in to our store with another stores coupon.  Even though she told me my boss said it was ok, well my boss didnt tell me, how am I supposed to know if its alright or not.  First of all, you didnt have to give me attitude, second you didn't have to gloat and third, you didnt have to be so rude about it the whole time and snatch the bag out of my hands.

That lady was seriously the customer of the day and I swear that I was ready to say something I shouldnt right when I clocked out.  Ive never had such a worse day on a job.... I couldn't wait to leave for the day.
