I have work today ( 3pm -9pm close ) thus ends my 6 day holiday from work. I work at a shop called 'Living & Giving' - it's part of the Briscoe Group (Briscoes, Rebel Sport and Living & Giving)

I have been working there for just over a year now and it's the 3rd place I've worked at. I do enjoy it to be honest, it's pretty chill and rewarding as in my workmates are great and I get a lot of free stuff haha.

It's a really expensive upper-class store so I realllllyy do not fit in and I do find it difficult to deal with some of the customers since the majority of them are upper-class white middle-aged woman who have way too much money (and a lot of the time it's not even their money as in they don't work and live off their rich husbands). So basically Merivale Mums. (Merivale is an area in CHCH for wealthy white people).

We sell homeware goods so pots, frying pans, home decorations, cutlery, dinnersets, coffe/tea stuff, cooking equipment and also aroma. I love the aroma stuff, lots of really nice smelling candles and diffusers and hand creams and so on. When I'm bored I'll just go round trying different hand creams and smelling everything. I've gotten a lot of freebies and so now I always have a decent stock of candles and diffusers which is great.

I walk to work (it's about 50 minutes from my house) - it's inside Westfield Riccarton and I like to walk there to save money (i've honestly saved so much money by not bussing to work, it's $2.50 for the bus) I can get in a bit of extra cardio into my day which is good. I didn't go to the gym this morning because I am rstill really sore from the past two days. I've changed up my strength excersises and I am really feeling it which is a good sign because my muscles are still quite sore but I will do some low-intensity strength stuff when I get home tonight after work just before I go to bed. Some crunches, squats and push ups I think.

I don't have work tomorrow which is good, I am really hoping I get the Waseda acceptance email/pack tomorrow, that would be amazing. I am going to the gym tomorrow morning and I am going to film another video. Not much else planned for tomorrow otherwise, I will play SDR2 for sure though.

I have to leave home today at 1:30pm so I can arrive at the mall at 2:30pm - I watnt ot have a browse before I start work today.

Well I will end the post here, this is the link to the Living & Giving website if you are interested.
