back!
Hello all! My name is Amber and I am officially back on bloop. Not a lot of you probably remember me, but some of my diary names were "i empire", "your lifeline", "amberandairwaves", etc. Either way, it's good to be back. I met SO many amazing people on here, and I'm still friends with a lot of them! I'm excited to be bloopin' again I apologize for my frontpage, or lack of one. Still workin' on that Anyway, to start off with my boring self..
I am twenty years old, live in Los Angeles County, and I work at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. I'm happy to say that after 3 years at my job, I was just recently hired at The Cheesecake Factory (I'll be in the Bakery, what what? ) . My last day at Coffee Bean is on Friday, so I'm pretty stoked! New year, new changes I am single and currently just going with the flow of life, if love happens to come my way then so be it, but for now I'm just focusing on my goals and my family. Speaking of family, I live with my mom (who is my best friend and my life), as well as the owner of my heart : my 1 1/2 year old brown tabby Chloe. Those two girls are my everything I also have an older brother, John, and he's 29. He lives on his own and just recently got engaged to his AMAZING girlfriend of 8 years and I couldn't be happier for him! They are both amazing people
I begin my third semester at Los Angeles Harbor College February 7th and for the first time, I will be going full time! The past two semesters I have taken 3 classes and worked full time, but this time I will be taking 4 classes and working full time! I know it sounds crazy but I like to challenge myself and I believe I can do it I'm excited for classes to start and work towards completing my units in order to transfer. I have not chosen a major yer, but I plan on majoring in Criminal Justice. I'm not exactly sure what I want to do in the Criminal Justice field, but there are many options. I'm also interested in Court Reporting and was thinking of looking into a Court Reporting school, but like I said, I'm not exactly sure what I want to do.
As far as anything you should probably know about me..obviously, I'm a HUGE Blink-182 fan. I grew up listening to them, due to my brother being a fan of them when I was younger. I have their smiley face logo and "Blink 182" tattooed behind my left ear, and I have met them three times. Music is my escape and Blink-182 takes me to a different level and when I'm listening to them I feel comfortable, excited, and just at a calm. I know, sounds cheesy but I really do love them. Anyway, that's pretty much it. Everything else there is to know about me I'm sure you all will find out in time (if you keep reading me, that is..haha).
Orientation
So today was my orientation at The Cheesecake Factory and it went really well! There was about 4 other people there, and one of them is going to be in Bakery with me. We discussed a lot of the basic stuff about the company, watched a few videos, and ate (THE BEST PART!). No joke, I had so much freaking food. Steak, mushroom chicken, crab wontons, fried cheese, salad, mash potatoes, four different types of cheesecake (by the way, we just sampled all of these. There's no way I would be able to eat full portions of that! Haha). It was ridiculous but OH SO GOOD. I received my uniform and now I'm just waiting to be scheduled for my first training shift. They post their schedules online, which is completely new to me but also really cool and convenient. By the way, my cousin's husband is a cook there so he was able to get me my first interview there. Lucky me! Even though I did a total of four interviews
The only thing I'm worried about is my uniform. They are extremely professional there and you have to iron your shirt, and I don't even think I own an iron. I'll have to get myself situated with that, haha.
Until next time..
Well, that's pretty much it for my first entry. I'm thrilled to be back and look forward to making new friends on here and reading about everybody else's life!
