My sister came over to my house yesterday after I got off from a freakishly busy but somewhat rewarding day at work. More about that later! Her and I first went to lunch at Qdoba, which is a baja Mexican food type of place to eat. Then we came here and she helped me get the wireless going so now I am writing my first entry on my own computer here in my new home with my room mate Jessica! Today I had the whole day off. I got up at about 9am and after I got ready for the day, went to the bookstore and browsed the shelves but found nothing I couldn't live without. I then went to Best Buy and bought the Nintendo DS game "Animal Crossing" and the movie Miss Potter. I

then went to my parents house and chilled. It was hot today. 84 degrees which I am terribly not used to yet! Feels like we have just skipped the spring like weather here and went straight into summer! I sat on the back patio and played my new game for several hours. We had chicken pot pie and cherry crisp for dessert. It was quite delicious! I did not stay too long after we ate. I said good-bye to my whole family. Mom, Dad, brother and my sister who was visiting them there today too. I always feel so sad looking in my rear view mirror at my mother watching me drive off. In my new home here with my room mate Jessica, it does not quite feel "permanent" or "home" quite yet. I wish I could still be young and free from work and bills etc. Being an adult quite frankly and still live in the comfort of my parents home knowing they are there. My parents only are about 5 minutes drive away but part of me feels "empty" still knowing I am not living with them anymore. That comfort is gone know and makes me feel uneasy sometimes and scared.
Work like I said was insane yesterday! There were just 3 people in the whole bank! I got there and got my teller drawer out but only did like 4 transactions before I opened 1 CD or certificate of deposit, 1 money market savings account and 1 regular checking. I also closed 2 accounts and a loan and dealt with a older woman and her daughter complaining about how the mother owed $480 on her reserve line or overdraft protection. I kept cool and handled it all. Had to call the help desk about 7 times but that is what they are there for. The woman who I first helped at the beginning of the day opened the CD and Money Market and it took about an hour. She was patient and very nice and at the end of the whole thing she gave me a hug. She said she was worried about opening these things because she was not sure what she wanted to do with the large check she brought in and I

helped her and explained things. She said I was very professional and I felt blessed with how patient she was with me too considering I am a new banker still. :-) My other co-workers who did the teller part the whole day were utterly exhausted too after we closed at 1pm. There was a line most of the day. Sometimes to the door!!! We were all pissed at our manager who scheduled her and 3 other of the bank employees to go to a city festival to advertise our bank and gather more accounts. They did not need 4 people there!!!! We soooooooooo could have used more help. Two people at the festival would have been sufficient we all thought! My co-worker Martha and I did not leave work until 1:45pm when we usually get out at 1:15pm roughly. I hope I hear something about this insaneness tomorrow!!!! An apology or something would be nice from our manager but highly unlikely!!! >___<
This weekend was not bad! I enjoyed the time spent today with my family and dogs! Highly therapeutic and just how I wanted to spend my Sunday! <3

Love*Com The Movie

    I am happy these past six days of work are done. When I saw the schedule and saw that I was working the next 6 days in a row, I was shocked! X___X I thought I could not do it, but I did and it was not so bad. Off tomorrow and then back to work at the branch again on Monday and then Tuesday through Friday I have "banker school" training. I received my first pay for this job yesterday. Yay! I had it direct deposited into my account there. I also opened my savings account this week. I feel like I got a lot of work done.
    After work today I went to the bookstore and bought a movie called LoveCom. It is based off a manga I really like. I plan on watching it tonight after a nice bath. I was looking for a manga called Punch volume 3 there too. They had a copy but some jerk had just shoved it back in the shelf and the cover was all bent and ripped! >__< I am not paying $9 for a messed up book. I didn't feel like driving to the other bookstore so I just decided I would wait and go another time to get it.
    Easter is next weekend. I know I am 21 1/2 years old, but I still miss getting an Easter basket. Waking up and having it sitting outside my bedroom door filled with toys and treats. I really miss decorating Easter eggs too. :-( I should probably get my Easter cards in the mail to my grandparents soon???
    I got a Nintendo DS Lite this past Christmas and I have not been playing it much lately. I plan on getting it out

FF Revenant Wings

tonight and playing some more of one of my two games, Final Fantasy Revenant Wings. It is such a fun game. I also have the DS game My Sims. That game is super fun too. I like to gamble in the game!!! Hee Hee. It is by the company EA Games, the same company who makes the Sims2 PC Games. Must be why I like it huh? ^__~
