But I'm pushing myself to write especially so far this week been awesome! Must take note on that!
Since yesterday I have been constantly bumping into old friends. I don't think I have ever heard my name screamed from the other side of the street as many times as these last 2 days. Lol.
It is pretty amazing you must ask me. It's good to bump sometimes with people you havent seen for so long just because there is just something "different" when you see each other. Theres so much excitement and to me there seems to be MORE to talk about (this magic does not work through text!).
I was happy to see all the old faces! These moments are special because they're so rare. (Especially when it keeps happening!)
Some good news at the Office:
1. FINALLY made a 3 DIGIT PAYCHECK! What! What! There is an AWESOME (i think the word of the day today is awesome..hmmers) feeling especially when you earned yourself.
I been trying to look for a second job. Though I love my job at the Law Firm, a second job might be useful since I don't work long at the office.
2. I made my FIRST official friend yesterday. I know I have been working there since August and it sounds sad that maybe NOW i finally made a friend. (Shoot me for being a social outcast!) I do talk to all my co-workers and we may joke sometimes. But I only see those as a small talk, a kind friendly gesture to fill in the awkwardness and boredom. And being the only high school student in the office, I'm not really close with everyone.
What I notice about working in the office is, everyone kind of do their own thing. No one really offer to help unless you ask. I sat next to this new girl in one of the intern room. I had to constantly get for some markers/pens from the other end of the table on her side but she noticed and put the cup of pens in between me and her.
I was abash at this small act of kindness. No one in the office would have really done that for me. Unless the copier is jam and we all need it...but her action really stuck to me for the longest minute and bought a smile inside me.
She kept looking my way like she was reluctant to say what she wanted to say. But in the end, she made a comment on how the beautiful the view was. I looked out too, being on the 33th floor the view was sure beautiful. We both took a second to glaze at the city then went back to our work.
But I guess that was just a unspoken ice breaker. Next thing you know I was offering her my skittles and from there we just kept talking throughout the day.
We had some laughters and weird observations about women body builders.
She was shock that I was only a high school student and though she goes to the same Law School as most intern does at my Law Firm. Unlike them she was only in her first year while most of them are in their 3rd.
Maybe that was the weird connection between us. We were both kind of an outsider but of course we're VERY COOL!
She left before me since there was no more work for her. Leaving me alone to think by myself next to the window with the AWESOME view of the city. I felt kind of giddy inside. Call me lame if you want, but it just felt like kindergarten again where you met your first friend on the playground and you just KNOW you guys are going to be the BEST of friends forever. That is how it felt.
But who knows, might be fantasizing...and if I ever shared this story with her she might think I'm a creep. Hahas!
Overall this week has been going really well despite how busy I'am.
I'm grateful for the new and old faces.
Thank God for giving me new opportunities and AWESOME friends! May He continue to pour me more love so I may shared it with others. More opportunities so I may do good work in Him. And let HIM continue to work in me.
