First teacher snowday

So this morning I woke up around 6:20, not even on purpose, my body just woke up. I decided to check the ol twitter to see if the schools were closed, saw nothing, whimpered a bit then laid back down. 10 minutes late my co-op teacher texted me:

My first teacher snow day y'all!!! I mean that's not even remotely close to the reason I want to teach but hey, it's nice anyway. 

 This is the current view from my window:

It's looking a little windy out there.

My  main purpose of this post is to share some of my snow day thoughts with you. So let's get to it!

Janet's thoughts on a snow day:

I should be taking advantage of today and studying for that online course I'm doing! Or not. I deserve a day off, even though it's Tuesday and the weekend just ended. 

Today would be a good day to go to the gym. There would be no one there for sure! But that also requires getting off my ass and into gym clothes and outside and frankly, I'm not into it. 

At what time is it acceptable to have a drink on a snow day? Surely it's different from every other day of the week?

I could do online shopping, maybe buying new gym clothes will motivate me to work out. But I'll probably actually end up buying a new dress or a sweater if I'm being honest. 

I could make some really cool recipes on Pinterest. But there is also a reason that like, bread and peanut butter exist. 

Is it really wrong to assume that my dad is going to shovel 8 times today and I won't have to help? 

I am so hungry!!! Screw trying to be healthy, I need some pizza up in this joint ASAP. Regardless of the fact that I had it for supper last night. That does not matter.

I hope your Tuesday is going well wherever you are! At least tomorrow is hump day!

Finish the sentence

Well well well, monday. We meet again..

While I have most definitely not been posting every day in July, this theme seemed like too much fun to pass up. Plus I needed to get something posted because it's been a while you.

(Also, please excuse the little bits of blog everywhere as I'm currently getting my layout edited and YEAH. I'm really good at the internet).

Here we go! Sentence finishing:

When I open the fridge, I always hope I find...

Subway. infinite amounts of subway.

My favorite article of clothing is...

Any maxi dress i own. comfortable and acceptable at work and for play. 

Last week I was really pissed when...

Whennn two of the houses I was supposed to go see were rented to someone else :( the saddest of times. 

One thing nobody understands about me is...

Why I have so much difficulty sleeping. Or why my migraines make me want to kill someone. If they don't experience it, they just don't get it. Fair enough I guess. 

One thing I don't understand is...

How people don't think them picking to spend all their time with their partner won't have a negative impact on your friendships. If you always tell me you're busy, I'm just not going to invite you anymore. 

The world would be a better place if...

France and Newfoundland were the same place.

If I had a million dollars I'd...

Pay off debt, give some to charity and move to Europe. or move someone to Canada. whichever.

If I could change one thing about myself, it would be...

I have a really short temper at times. Need to get that on lock down. 

Something that can always make me happy is...

French fries

Something I'll never blog about is...

not much I wouldn't blog about really

If I could go anywhere I would go...

Australia, Germany, Switzerland, just.. everywhere.

because...

there is so much more to see than just where I live!

If I were an animal I would be a....

sloth. They are basically my spirit animal anyway

A job I've always wanted is..

There isn't one job i've always wanted. it changes. Right now it's speech pathologist. 

My idea of a perfect day is...

Sleeping till 11, getting lunch at my fave restaurant then lounging. 

If I knew I'd die next week, this week I'd...

Eat everything. Quit my job and see as many places as I could.  Tell everyone every second of the day that I love them. 



So that's all she wrote! Enjoy your monday!

                                                               

Working for the weekend

THANK GOD it is Friday. I made it through my first full week of my new job, which is a feat in itself. (in and of itself? is that how the expression goes? no idea..)

 Now I have done the 9-5 thing before, but it was only ever for a summer job which really meant, do whatever the hell you want as long as you show up because you'll be gone in two months anyway. NOT this time ladies and gents, oh no. This time I am in it for real. I have real responsibilities that can have an impact on the functioning of the company (ok not really a big one but let me just have this ok?).

 So in honour of completing my first full week of real adult life, I'm going to share with you the things I've learned:

 1) You really do need to bring your own lunch. When you're a student it's all good because you're getting the money and likely don't have many other needs that aren't already covered so you can get Subway everyday! (not that I've ever done that..) But in grown up land it's much more economical (and healthier) to bring your own lunch. That being said, I'm not that great at following my own advice so there will probably still be many trips to subway for my precious lunch hour.

 2) Waking up early every day for the rest of your life (or however long you're at this job for). This is a hard one for me. Being in school I've become accustomed to a certain luxury called sleeping in and not dealing with important things. I didn't wanna go to class? Well whatever I'll just stay in bed cause no one can tell me what to do. But now, I really need a valid excuse for not coming in, and I have to report it to someone. And if I were to take a mental health day I'm pretty sure karma would come back and get me and I wouldn't have any sick days left. I used them all up because I "didn't feel like it."

 3) Not everyone you work with is super nice. This probably isn't a new thing since, guaranteed anywhere you there's going to be someone who isn't nice and has no interest in talking to or getting to know you. There is a large degree of separation in departments in my office. I went in the lunchroom today, where I could everyone talking from outside the door, and as soon as I opened that door they all went quiet. They are all people who sit on the other side of the building. It was fine, I was only going in to get my diet pepsi and leave anyway.


 There are a few more things, but I'm already late getting to go out so I should probably do that! But before I go, I'm joining up on the Back that Azz Up tag with Whitney over at I Wore Yoga Pants!

               This song is my current jam:
                                
Have an amazing weekend everyone!
