Things seem to be happening all at once, such as my transferring to another department, but still doing the same job; my 21st birthday is around the corner; and my vacation is flying by almost in the blink of an eye even though it has just begun.
Speaking of my transfer to the float team, I'm in such a huge stage of confusion right now. I don't know whether to follow my float team manager's schedule or my current manager's schedule. I have no clue on which date I will be ending vacation and what date I will officially begin my orientation. One manager says my transfer will be effective on June 26th, while the other one says that I will be released on July 10th. Now I'm sort of regretting putting my vacation at the same time as my transfer. Hopefully my phone call to my new manager will help to clear up things. I NEED THIS SITUATION CLEARED UP IMMEDIATELY! Moreover, I really hope that I'll be able to give better first impressions and hopefully I'll adjust well to my new shift.
As for my 21st birthday....What a joke. Remember when I said that I'd take the vacation to focus on getting my learner's permit and enrolling for driving classes? I haven't finished reviewing my manual at all. Ugh...So much for getting my act partially together. What else? To be honest, I'm not really into the idea of having another get together at my house again like I do every year. Not a lot of people will be able to make it this year anyway. This is a bit irrelevant to my 21st birthday, but the older I get the more I realize who my true friends are and who are just my friends by name. I mean, I guess I'm starting to embrace the fact that I'm a loner and I guess I should just give up texting people first. I also find it dumb that people have to have Facebook notifications in order to remember what their friends' birthdays are. I mean, I remember majority of my friends' birthdays. It'd be nice if some of them remembered mine.
My vacation right now is quite uneventful I must say. I feel a little less purposeful since I've been spending majority of the time loafing around the house. I guess I should do something productive with it. The first two days of vacation were just BLAH. I went to Atlantic City with my aunt and her family. Her and her family are just beyond dysfunctional. I remember having late night dinner with them and while we were waiting for our food to be served, all of them were just glued to their phones and not even trying to make any conversation at all. I even made a snapchat video in secret, captioning it, "Our species is doomed!" The only time when they would actually talk to each other is when my aunt and her husband would criticize their children and yell at them. I managed to make it through the monotonous hour without saying anything negative or excusing myself from the table. After that, we all went back to the hotel room to unwind. The children and I spent most of our 2 days in the room, while their parents gambled their money away in the casino. Anyway, I'm probably not going to go somewhere with them unless my family is with me.
