wassuppp! been a while i know, but hey i havent been all that free, despite my current lady of leisure status!
my petshop job has been every bit as doggyful as i imagined and wanted it to be! its a far cry from my prior office job, what with the per hour earning and all ;), but i remember wishing for a job that entails me to do physical stuff rather than just dealing with oh so exciting numbers and staring into a damn screen. So other than the money factor, it really is so much more self satisfying! i'm pretty much the puppies care-taker. I start by cleaning up the HUGE mess the TINY ones manage to make, while left unattended overnight. Some of them manage to squeeze themselves out of their cages, so you have a whole welcome committee greeting you with their excited yapping, at your feet. The floors will be stained with all sorts of waste matter and yeah the smell is truly 'unforgettable'. Trust me, i still get whiffs of the smell every now and then, even when i'm in the comfort of my own home. So after mopping the mess up, i move the puppies from the inside area to the display area. Thats part of my cuddling time, and i make full use of the short journey :) Once the pups have been moved, i have to clean the cages that were used to hold them, the night before. sigh, i'll leave that 'shit-filled' job to your imagination. There are like tons of cages to clean, so that takes up pretty much the whole morning till early afternoon. Once the cleaning is done, i'm free to bond with the pups and bathe some of 'em and pretty much spend some quality doggy time with duh, the dogs. When new puppies come in, i also help to ferry them to thier new cages! I swear some of them are as tiny as my palm! frigging adorable- and that isnt even doing it much justice. sigh, you've gotta see it to believe it.
Although its very coolie'fied, and i bet all those who know me think i aint capable of dirtying my fingers, i realised that i don't have an issue when it comes to animals. I'm glad my love for 'em doesnt just stop at being able to love them only when they are all pretty and clean. i'm thrilled that i landed this job cos its really a good starting point for me since i plan to be in this industry henceforth. Its a part time job, which is good coz i need the day after, to recover from all the aches and pains gifted by my manual labour ;) haha i'm just starting, so all you judgemental kind, cut me some slack won't you!
Well, other than that i've busy with dance and prawn time and just other random activities. I'm quite happy with the way life is unfolding itself, although i did seem a lil depressed in my last post. Nothing has been settled, with reagrds to that issue, but for some reason i'm quite ok living in denial, heh. And when it does come up, i don't think i'm gonne be quite as scared as i used to be!
Oh well, my lifelong motto of 'going with the flow' comes into play now. Lets just see how it goes yeah? :) Gottta head to the gym with my dad now, he's my regular gym partner. :) plus i get a discount when i go with a senior citizen, so he's more than just transport there! haha, i'm kidding! My dad's the cutest la, you all know that! Aight, i'm off to try to burn off that ice cream tub i finished yesterday! :) muacks, good day y'all!
The heart has its reasons which reason knows not of..
