Hi!
I´m finally able to prove that I did not, in fact, cease to exist. It´s just the fact that we had exams season. Exams never caused me any frustrations, due to the fact that I was unapologetical nerd during both elementary and high school. It just felt like the informations are coming to me on their own. It was similar during first two semsters of college too, but oh boy.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I spent first few weeks of semester in Paris, or that I didn´t go to lectures that much, but I felt like climbing a mountain before almost every exam. For the first time in my life, I came close to academical all nighters and to make things worse, I´m still haunted by dreams of failing and being kicked out of school (×﹏×).
And it´s only worse, because when I don´t dream of failing at school, I dream of failing at work. Today, I dreamt of sucking at a bartending gig I left SIX MONTHS AGO.
Anyway. In 9 days, I´m visting Amsterdam with my sister (Flixbus had 1+1 ticket Valentine deal), and next month, we´are visiting my favourite city, London. My sisters best friend is a fan of unusual plushies, so she wanted to visit Jellycat flagstore and fetch her a gift.
She wanted to hype me up a little bit, so she showed me their best product. The only thing I really need. Something that I should have known sooner.
Timmy is a turtle, a very grumpy one. That´s something so irresistible for me. I already have an army of turtle plushies, I always wanted a breathing one too, but I don´t even have a real home right now, so I couldn´t subject any alive, intelligent form of life to that.
Also, pet turtles are expensive. And so is Timmy, but do I care?
"Timmy Turtle needs a friend to cheer him up – or someone to have a good grumble with! This soft, sturdy guy has a green textured shell, embroidered fudge fur and squeezable feet. Don't be fooled by the face – Timmy gives surprisingly good hugs!"
If you feel unsure about bare, naked Timmy, wait till you see his cute little outfits.
There is something so british about these two Timmys. They look like extras from Hercule Poirot episodes. Tell me that doesn´t bring you any happiness.
Of course, you might argue, those doesn´t seem like the most practical purchases. Jellycat has your back - and bag too. I´m saving money for Timmy bag.
Does it suit my style? Not at all. But it makes me feel as if all those hours at work were worth it, somehow. Also, at least
according to Reddit, a lot can fit there. There is also a key chain Timmy, and I would absolutely get him too, if I didn´t feel like my financional state would never recover.
I hope I will be able to get the bag at one of my trips!
Other than those capitalistic cravings, I´m quite well. I´m working on another film with my friend, once again as a producer. More people are coming to me for their projects, and it´s a great feeling. On the other hand, there´s a lot of stress, too.
Tomorrow school starts again, and I will need to let my higher ups know that I´m finished at the cheese shop I´m working at right now. For some reason, they have the worst clientelle and one of the worst managers I have ever met.
Pro tip - if almost none of your part time workers sticks around for more that two months, maybe it´s because your store manager sucks. If you´re the store manager in question, try not sending threating passive agressive texts well ouside working hours. Or days after the workers last shift, when they already feel safe.
See you next ime!
