I slept for a while but I couldn�t much, as my head was urging me to write a recount on what happened today. Yeah, writing here is like a habit that takes time to really kill! However, I�m not complaining� I hope Diaryland will stay right here forever.
I woke up late today�again, because of my insomnia. Quickly showered then went out for work. My first day, I was quite tensed. Being in the same bus as the manageress was even worse. I was like, �Ohh� she lives around my area?!� So all along in the bus I was stiff..
After reading some stupid history of KFC and Colonel Sander, I was taught how to clean, mop, sweep, yadda yadda and identify the different parts of the chicken. Rather stupid. I saw my collegues and smiled all the time. One of my childhood friends would be working there too! I was quite happy with that though we had not talked for 6-7 years. Most seemed rather taken aback with my presence�and I noticed our differences:
All of them had dyed their hair and my hair was still untouched�still natural, and didn�t intend to do anything to it. All of them had somewhat no interest in education while I was still in it, still fired up to strive for excellence and etc. All of them were quite rugged in attitude.. You would call them �unladylike� and very boisterous while I was the meek one there, who prefer to do more work and less talking..and more smiling than actual socializing�
�Oh you are too genteel and soft, Amanda! Rough up!� says one.
�Are you always this shy?� says another.
�Oh�do learn to shout for orders and etc. Don�t be too nice, yeah?�
I was so alien next to them.
Which made me thought of something else� like, they told me that they were just working to kill time and once their boyfriends were able to find a job, they would just live together and make babies. Lol, those were some real actual words from their mouths! Needless to say, I laughed. Maybe not laughed. I was giggling, covering my mouth up and they were like, �Look at this new girl, she actually covers up her mouth and everything� oh my freaking god!� I giggled more.
Gosh, how alien I am!
They are so different from me and I am so different from them, but they are all nice people and I like working there� I worked for 6 freaking hours and never felt bad at all. Tired, but pleasantly tired. We sure can communicate. Fuck differences� though I don�t see myself working there all my life..and with that thought, it really tells me why I should study harder and pursue a career.
So many adjustments though! I have never sat on my butt for 6 freaking hours! I have to clean the floors for about 10 times? Washed countless of trays? But nothing really matters� I love my job, the people are so oddly different and so nice.
They smoke, they abuse drugs and everything� but yeah, they never want to talk about that to me, or expose it to me. I am always the person who everyone protects and keeps me away from those. In school, everyone thinks I�m the good girl, though I really have portrayed some bad behaviors and everything. But I am not complaining, again! It means I can do more bad things and get away unscathed.
Today was so tiring, yet so reassuring� at least I know I am not abused there or anything J The uniform was dorky though. I hated it, but whatever. :D Happy!
