Can they go all the way? (entry no.29)

 Bruh, I thought it had been ages since I last wrote an entry but I now see that it's literally only been three days. That being said, because I thought I hadn't written an entry in a while, I was going to write one last night but I was way to tired to write more than a couple sentences. I ended up deleting that little entry because I refuse to write these in more than one sitting session. The Abby who wrote last night is different from the Abby today and has different things on her mind so the entry would be incohesive if it was written in two sessions. For example, today I am thinking about getting my hair trimmed in a month or so. I want it a little shorter with some layers. Maybe I'll get it done at the end of the month, what can I say I'm a sucker for short hair. 

Today I had to walk to work, it takes me about 30 minutes and I genuinely don't mind the walk since I have my comfy Bluetooth headphones and awesome playlists to accompany me. However, it does leave me feeling very tired at the end of my shift, especially for my later and shorter shifts like today's; 4:30-9:30. During that time that I am clocked in, I only get one 10 minute break which definitely catches up to me towards the end of the night when I start slowing down and the customers keep coming. As I mentioned in one of my earlier posts, I am a cashier at a grocery store and since it's a little more high-end we actually bag the customers' groceries. 

I actually enjoy bagging groceries, it feels like a satisfying game of real-life Tetris. However, it is currently the season for honeydew, cantaloupe, and watermelons, there are soooooooo many people buying them and the majority want them in bags. My poor arms get so tense and sore after a while of individually bagging four melons or more back to back. But it ended up being a good thing that I started work today at 4:30 because it gave me the chance to watch all of the Germany vs Spain game today at 12:00. It was pretty epic not gonna lie. And it was even more epic to make myself snacks for the game  and have them all to myself as I sat in front of the TV in my pjs. 

Spain has been playing phenomenally well. They face France in the semi-finals and I genuinely believe that they will beat them. Meanwhile, on the other side of the bracket I really think that it will be Netherlands against England in the semi-finals. England is my team, where Bukayo Saka goes I follow. But I have to admit that Gareth Southgate's team has seen better days. Saka played left back... need I say more. Their game tomorrow against Switzerland will determine whether or not England can go all the way to the finals. But even if they make it, there is no way they are defeating Spain or France on the other side. I know I sound like a pessimist but I'm just being realistic. Time will tell I suppose, in the end it always does.

You're still here? Meet me at entry no.30 :)

Are you coming or going? (entry no.50)

It's been quite a while since my last blog post. Honestly I've been having too much fun while also stressing out and it's made me a fabulous combination of overstimulated and lazy. Hence why I have not posted an entry in over a month! But I don't want to let anymore time pass, I want to keep documenting my life, my experiences, and thoughts for a long time. My life updates aren't as interesting anymore now that I'm not in school. Well my life is actually super interesting right now but I just don't feel like writing about it, I'd rather live it in the moment.  I've got so many exciting plans for the summer, trips I want to take, people I want to see, hobbies I want to get back into. Like I do every summer, I want to go back to learning the ukulele, I also wanna take time to play some of my favorite video games again. I just find it hard to pursue these things cuz I legitimately cannot sit still, it's awful. I still try to pick up a book every now...

I fall for pretty home and away kits (entry no.25)

 Ayeooo, she's back only 4 days later, please hold your applause until the entry is finished. I'm currently a multi-tasking queen, typing away as I watch England vs Serbia, both team's first match in this year's Euro Cup. So far so good, we're winning one nothing and Southgate created a killer starting line-up not gonna lie. We got Kane, Foden, and Saka up front and Rice, Bellingham, and Trent in midfield... need I say more. Now that I'm writing, I realize that I haven't once mentioned what I thought about the team's new jerseys. I think they are cool, very classic looking but not as cool as the ones they wore during the 2022 World Cup. I loved both of those home and away kits. The bright red away colors and the white and bright blue home jerseys were perfection.  However, Germany's home and away kits this year were my absolute favorites. The white home jerseys with hints of red, yellow, and black look so beautiful, almost like the players are on fir...

Co-workers & Classmates (entry no.47)

 Hello! It's been a minute, I know it always has been but I always feel the need to say that when I start an entry. I'm currently in my 10:00 am Web Technologies class, after today I only have to come two more times and I'll officially be done with this course. The same is true for my other Friday class on Microsoft Power Shell, I'm really nervous about that final exam. If I don's pass it I could very easily fail my class. I have NEVER failed a class, not in middle school, not in high school, not in college, and hopefully I never will. Long hours of studying await me to make the previous statement a reality. But my determination is just as strong as my fear and anxiety. If I want it enough I can have it, April is finally here, (not literally, but I'm trying to make a point). Honestly, it feels surreal how close to the finish line I am, college has taken up two years of my life. I was 19 when I started. On week six of my first semester I started working at my cur...
