oopsie (my bad)
so.. i haven't made a post in 3 days. AND THATS NOT MY FAULT!!!! okay so my last post was june 3rd amd then on the 4th i had a crazy ass day at work we got completely slammed in the last 2 hours and so when i got home i just took a shower and went to bed. i was not thinking 'wow let me write an entry for my monthly challenge!' no dawg i was thinking Let's hit the hay and call it a day (wow that rhymes). yesterday i have less of an excuse i was just in the city and when i got back i was tired from walking around and whatnot and had an early appointment the next day (aka today) and so i went to bed early: lights out by 10. i'm gonna make 2 mini entries in this entry to make up for what i didn't do the past two days okay awesome
6/4: ive been working the same summer job for a few years now just because its reliable, decent pay, and i know the people there so it's comfortable and easy to return to. i like all my co-workers we're all like high school to college students working in the front and so everyone is able to get along and joke and stuff and then our manager is obviously an Adult with a wife and kids but he's funny and chill so everything is great. the start of this year was pretty slow mainly due to weather stuff but now that private schools in the area are out for summer, it's getting busier by the day; and so of course the day we got slammed randomly happened because 2 private schools near the area had just gotten out for summer. we made decent tips though like i walked away with $100 in tips for the day on top of 9 hrs hourly pay so thanks for the money i guess. taking a moment to complain about these two people who had checks that were $115-170 dollars each and they didn't tip at all. just mean like wtff this is why we're slapping british people. i do, however, respect that more than people who just leave without closing their check so they don't have to face us while not leaving a tip. we know what you're doing and you are nott slick. the next 3 days for me are all full shifts at work and i think i might kill myself so im gonna see if anyone wants to try and cover at least half a shift of mine on monday because lord knows im not surviving a full weekend and then a Monday. give me some grace pleasee.
6/5: so i went into the city (downtown flushing to be exact) and i love going to all the little mini 'countries' in the city like little italy, ktown, chinatown, etc. i especially love little italy and mott street chinatown because of the lights they hang over the streets and even the big 'welcome to little italy' sign that really makes you feel like you're stepping into a little community while still obviously being in nyc because of the buildings and layout. i saw someone the other day say that being in flushing felt like 'being in china in new york' which i mean yeah that seems obvious because its chinatown in new york but i like how the size of the city allows for a place where you can experience all sorts of things while still realizing that you're connected through The City tm. whenever im in the city i try to avoid getting things ive gotten before because i know theres so many good things (food. let me be clear im talking about food) i havent tried yet and if i were to just eat the same things sure i'd be happy but i might miss something else. i have only failed this when i got the pork bun from mei lai wah twice but in my defense it was good as hell and i also paid both times with cash so i had ZERO line. okay but speaking of that people need to bring more cash around. the 2nd time i went to MLW i literally skipped a huge ass line and got my pork bun in 30 seconds all because i had $4 of cash on me. it was that easy. so advice is just bring cash. imma make a post on what i ate in flushing with reviews for today's post so stay tuned for that thanks
