Good News~ Sorta.

So I spoke to my mother and obviously, I can't tell her that I'm seeing Blue Fox just yet. However, I did tell my mother that Kitty has a roommate and she's moving out but covered two months worth of rent so that I can have time to look for a job and whatnot. Apparently, since Towson University is expanding and opened new shops... I can apply there. I told mother that Katya is helping me out. My mother was so shocked and happy, she told me that I can go.

BUT!

Yes, there's a but. She still wants me to do well in the interview and if nothing happens, then we can plan on how to get to Maryland. I do have a feeling that I won't get it though, because for one, I'm applying for cashier and seeing the people that work the cashiers are old ladies. And I know that they want to be extremely careful with money and since my mother has worked with that kind of environment, she knows how it works behind everything so they aren't going to give a noob like me a cashier job then I've only had one cashier job before. The oldies would want to hire someone with more experience. But... I'll do my best but I won't get my hopes up.

So now, I have to think about how to get to Maryland.

I still haven't told Blue Fox yet... I know he'll want more out of it though. He has an Army mindset so it's "engage-push/shove-execute-succeed" kind of thing. Lol. I wonder if it'll make him excited though... It's killing me that I can't tell him until tonight. I hope it makes him smile and be able to wait for me a little longer...

On the bright side,
Otter

My Interview Was Moved

Yesterday, I got a call from Julie from Uwajimaya and she told me that the interview for Friday would have to be moved because something came up. So we moved it to Monday, same time (2:30pm) and it'll be at the main office building.

I guess it's a good thing because it gives me time to brush up on my Japanese and Korean skills again and find some good stuff to say about myself. (laughs) Sounds weird to say that. I need to impress Julie a lot... I need this job. This job will show if I can be with Blue Fox. This job is my life right now. LOL. And I need money but more because of Blue Fox.

Preparing,
Otter

Working Out and In Love

So I'm back to working out more but... I wish I shouldn't have told Blue Fox. LOL. Now he's all in it. He was telling me, "Do 50 for both sit-ups and push ups. For sit ups, you should do 15-15-10-10 and rest in between but with sit-ups, you have to do it all at once."

You're. Killing. Me.

Not quite sure how Blue Fox can do 300 sit-ups in one sitting. And he still think it's not enough. Sigh. Makes me feel... Like I either want to jump him for being so yummy or makes me feel slightly weak and that I need to get stronger but more on the I-wanna-jump-your-yummy-self mood.

(about to end a phone call with Blue Fox)
Blue Fox: Mmm, goodnight.
Otter: Goodnight.
Blue Fox: Saranghaeyo~ (In Korean: I love you)
Otter: (gasp, giggly)
Blue Fox: (giggles) Goodnight
Otter: Goodnight
(hangs up but we text)
Otter: I can't believe you said it again... I'm giggly now.
Blue Fox: LOL.
Otter: :)
Blue Fox: I didn't mean to say it.
Otter: Then... Why did you say it?
Blue Fox: Because my heart couldn't keep it in.

Dies,
Otter

PS: Friday at 2:30pm, I have another interview! Yes! Let's hope "Uwajimaya" picks me. I effing need a job.

... To Be Continued

August 29th: I was getting ready for my interview and I was so nervous while I was getting changed. Was I missing something? Is my outfit too plan? Is it too much? Is this blouse alright? Do these heels fit my outfit?

After putting all my clothes together, I actually looked pretty cute. (laughs) but I was still nervous that I couldn't eat my breakfast so I texted Blue Fox about it and he told me that when I get nervous, I just had to think about him doing the Native Indian bonfire dance song~ And that made me feel better but I don't think that I would be able to take the interview seriously because I would be laughing too much.

I was 30 minutes early for my interview and was able to take the interview ten minutes early but right when I was about to walk to the door, Blue Fox texted me, "Be confident! You got this!" and that boost up my energy A LOT! It really helped... I knew that I was confident to do well on the job but I just wanted the job so much that I got nervous. Thank you, Blue Fox.

The guy that was suppose to interview me was Eric Johnson but he was out sick so a guy named Peter who was one of the head managers of the company I'm going for and after a 20-minute interview, I was given to Vanessa who is the HR and she had to give me a 15-minute interview... Then, she called up a guy named Diego who is in charge of the position that I'm applying for and he showed me the things that they do and it seemed so chaotic, I was almost overwhelmed and he said, "But don't be overwhelmed because once you start working in this area, it gets easy... It's just fast paced." and I was totally fine with that. He also told me that when and if I do work, it's best to wear flats because you'll have to be climbing a lot on the job and since I was wearing heels for my interview, he commented on me saying, "But it's good to see that you're wearing heels because you have an interview and you look absolutely great."

I was told that I would be given a call regarding if I got the job or not but since they gave me a tour of the job that I'm going for... It makes me think that I got it? Because when you go to get interviewed, they don't show you the job. I don't know, maybe that's how they do it. But I told Blue Fox about it and he thinks the same... And he also said, "Now... I'm excited." (LAUGHS)

Later that night, we spoke on the phone for a little bit but he was sleepy so I decided to let him sleep since he has his last day of work before he moves in to his apartment for school.

Sigh, I miss him.

Now all I have to do is wait for them to call me.

Waiting patiently,
Otter

Cute Moments with Otter and Blue Fox

I think Blue Fox and I are getting... Serious. I mean, this whole time, I know we liked each other A LOT but I guess last night was just one of those moments where I feel like we've leveled up in... Whatever this is. We share things that we normally don't share with other people, we're open with each other and we already made a list of what we want to do with each other and surprisingly, what he wants to do ends up being what I've always wanted to do... It gets more and more scary when we figure out how we have so much in common.

For the last few days now - and you're going to laugh Turtle - whenever we're on the phone together at night, we both brush our teeth together while on the phone! YES, ON THE PHONE. So I can hear him brushing his teeth and he's laughing and I'm brushing my teeth and laughing and... It's just one of the cutest moments that I enjoy a lot and it make me really happy for some reason.

Blue Fox: Go shower but don't brush your teeth yet. I want us to do that together...

At about 12am, he told me that I had to sleep early because I have an interview in the morning and as much as I didn't want to be let go, I know I had to go. But he told me, "Just take a deep breath and smile... And you'll get the job." siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh, whenever he gives me words of encouragement... I feel this sense of energy that uplifts my spirit.

Otter: Siiiiigh. I'm doing this just for future reasons and to make this guy that I really like reeeally happy because he's nomu nomu nomu nomu special to me. And I hope this makes him feel better since I can't be there to take care of him... Yet.
Blue Fox: If I had cancer, it would have been cured. That's how great I feel.

... To be continued.
