The world ended and turns out it's not so bad.

It's finally over.
My essay was a piece of shit.
But it's over, it's in, it's out of my hands.
Hurray!

I got a package today!
A new Oxford Dictionary and Thesaurus.
They are beautiful and awesome.
Step one of obtaining material objects to complete my life is complete!
Next step......a complete bed set.
I'm being an adult sooo hard.

Also, yesterday, work was awesome.
It wasn't busy at all, and I got to help Trevor make salads!
It was so cool. I found it hard partially because I was extremely nervous and intimidated.
Especially because Colin was there, and I didn't want to mess up.
I made some really cool looking plates though.
My ice terrine was awesome.
Even Trevor said it looked cool.
It was just so nice to finally get to do something different in the kitchen.
I mean, washing dishes is nice and easy, but actually making the food that goes out for the people to eat is such a different feeling.
And even on GM, you have to know what is going on and time your actions accordingly with the cooks and what they are cooking.
Confusing, but still pretty cool.
I also coated a flour-less chocolate cake with chocolate horribly. disgraceful.
Oh, well, back to washing the dishes today.

Also, also, Christmas staff party was on Sunday.
It was a hoot! HA
No, it was really fun.
We all did a secret Santa and I got a 25$ gift card to a music store on Barrington, which I plan on popping into on the way to work.
Food was amazing, courtesy of Noel and others. Mmmm.
And yea, fun times chilling in the kitchen.
Good people. A really great bunch. I'm very lucky.

In other wonderful news,
Colin is warming up much more to the idea of being public.
It's strange, you don't hang out with them for a couple days and BAM they are all over you for the next week. Silly boy that Colin
I'm enjoying our relationship, which seems like a silly thing to say.
I feel no pressure, little to no anxiety, and the speed at which we are progressing is comfortable.
He is more daring at work, trying to sneak kisses when no one it looking, and grabbing my ass, a lot, but hey it's a kitchen and we all grab each others asses.
It's just part of the job.
A little encouragement/punch in the ass never hurt nobody.
NEVER, except for that one time.
Anyways,
Colin is great and severely flawed.
