So now I BSed a bit in my resume and getting into restaurant/waitressing jobs. I'm doing some trial shifts so we'll see how that goes. I've always been avoiding that industry because I had really bad experience with it when I was young. I think I didn't get a job for a long time in order to come to this point of having to face my fears. I have to tell myself that I don't have to take myself so seriously and in the end it doesn't really matter what I do, it's how I do and process it. I've done one shift at a white restaurant which was okay, the place was really busy with many staff so I just had to clear tables and stuff. I don't even know what's going on because she said she will contact me when my time was up. After that, I went to another interview for an Asian (westernized?) restaurant and the place is a completely different than the other. They can offer full time for me but need me to commit to 4-6 months because they take a long time to train people. It would not be bad as a plan to settle by the beach and work hard for a few months to save money before moving onto more travels.
Other things have been kinda crazy here, especially when I'm drinking. I get into these scenarios which I will ban from this blog. I don't want to party for awhile, on top of that, it makes me feel upset about my situation sometimes.
Remember there's that annoying guy I've mentioned in my blog? So yesterday he called me out of the blue and told me he got into a motorcycle accident. He wanted me to take care of him or something, and I have only met him once. What was I supposed to do since I have no car anyways? This is all so ridiculous that I had to shake my head in disbelieve. I ended up giving up my evening to be in his place to "comforting" him. At least, he has a Japanese guy roommate who is somewhat normal. We watched the movie "Pursuit of Happiness" with Wil Smith which stressed me out a bit because I could relate to his role at the moment. I'm living day by day, not sure where I'm sleeping next. We went for a drive around the city after, and it felt nice to be in a car like back home. We did sort out some stuff though, like I was upfront about not being comfortable around him and such. He kept calling and texting me after which was creepy and annoying, but I told him I wasn't interested anyways. The thing is that he's a local and he can offer alot of help (car, place to stay, free meals, etc.), but not sure if it's really right under the given circumstances. OK, I do think he's a nice guy but he's a bit lonely.
