dancing in the rain

canberra has the most retarded weather out of all the places in australia in my opinion.

while we are almost reaching summer, and many places are now nice and warm, we had 2 days of warmth, and retarded freezing temperature in my house, and then it rained for 2 days now, cold beyond cold.

i walked home in the rain today, happy and more than happy. i know, where i am now, it is not my real job, just a form of sustenance. the thing is, for the first time in my entire “waitressing” career, people trust me enough to just chuck me into a section and ran it all by myself. of course, there were some help. there were people who helped me clean up when i am too slow to keep up with it. there were others who took side others for me and further more who kept on reminding me what i forget (dessert spoons for desserts, take out dessert menu… what have you..).

but on the whole, i called the shots.

i constantly remind my customers that i am new and this is my first night truly waitressing. and what made me happy was that they were just as encouraging as my colleagues, if not more so. i had an entire table of 5 cheering me every time they received the right meals -.- LOL…

and another table who kept on chatting to me, asking me where i came from, asking me how i like australia.

like? i actually love australia. i don’t think i can find customers like them back home. really, seriously. lol.

there were others who couldn’t make up their minds and just took my word for it and just fell in love with the food anyways.

despite discovering that the 800 mystery bux aint mystery bux anymore, and that they don’t actually belong to me, work lifted up my spirit today and i just am so overwhelmed.

there are somethings in life, we all take for granted. our family, our friends, our plants, the people around us and everything else. then when i sit down and truly look through everything i had today, it overshadowed any doubts i had, any lack of self confidence i had.

i walked home in the rain, humming to canon in d, in time with my ipod running thru my ears… dancing and hoping all the way home in the rain.

in case you are wondering, yes, i did it again. every time i bring out my fucking umbrella, it doesn’t rain. and when i stop bothering to, it just decides to pee on me.

fucking clouds.
