writing in anticipation of going to work

Starting today I am working like a mad woman. I work 8-9 hours everyday beginning today (Monday) at Market Street Coffee, my second home. I have a lot of mixed feelings about working so frequently. One, it is good because it keeps me busy in these 20 days remaining of my time at home. Two, it is bad because I am surrounded by delicious food that makes me want to eat constantly. Eating gelato and cookies constantly is in my opinion a great idea when I'm up for it. But honestly, I'm not up for it. I need to be able to sleep well this week and if I eat loads of chocolate enhanced food then I know I won't even make it past the first sleep stage. I know for sure I won't get to REM, which is the only point there is in sleeping because it leaves fabulous pieces of dreams in my head to carry around throughout the day. So in conclusion because I do not plan on eating gelato and cookies all night I think it is a good thing that I am working so much. I will make good dinero which will serve me well in my future endeavors, for example my first couple of weeks back at school will call for some money.

Market Street Coffee is a great place to go for coffee. I hope the whole world comes in and visits, just make it before 9:00 pm because that's when we start getting ready to close. Yes, it's true we close at 10 pm not 9 pm but we start getting ready to close way before its necessary. It keeps work what it needs to be: work. Keeps me on my toes.

About Me

My photo
I am a recent college grad with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology. I'm working in a coffee shop. I plan to pursue at phD in Counseling at George Mason University. The Nereids, however, are mystical female creatures that dwell in the Mediterranean Sea. These beautiful women were always friendly and helpful towards sailors fighting perilous storms. They are believed to be able to prophesize. As my blogger name "nereid" implies, there is a connection between me, the college student, and the Nereids. And that connection is this blog. I effectively use this blog to pretend I am not a college student. With all of the stressors of daily life this blog lets me dwell in the sea. I am, after all, a Pisces which is the fish, a water-dwelling creature. I hope my prophetic nature will show but if not there is another purpose to this blog in that it is like a journal! Please feel free to read all about my life; what's here is yours to take.
