New Restaurant! No More Life?

Yep parents have now opened a new restaurant and of course that means I have re-entered full-time-slave position. But at least this time I’m guaranteed regular paychecks, breaks, and days off. Oh and it’s only til I go back to school in August. =P And something for my resume haha even though it doesn’t count towards experience for my future real job. Though I’m pretty sure that a lot of people expect me to follow my parents footsteps so to speak and take up the restaurant business, at least until I tell them that I’m a Forensic Science and Chemistry major. xD

Anyway, I’ve been working harder than I have in a while though because we had to clean up the place, we painted, rearranged a couple things, hired people, called customers and venders, and opened Friday night! We took over the space 13 days ago, as a reference point. AKA That’s freaking incredible! =P Oh yeah and now we have a bar and seating for like 4 times as many people as we did before, not even counting the banquet hall for catering downstairs! The kitchen was disgusting when we came in though…That took twice as long to clean as we thought it would or we would have been open last Tuesday…

So will I have a life now this summer? I don’t know…Ry is working almost every weekday too so I guess we don’t have too much duel time anyway plus Em and Ari have another serving job plus working our new place so they aren’t free much either. I did get a day off today though! Ry’s uncle took us paintballing today and it was awwwwesome as usual, I could always go for a good day of paintball. I could do without the bruise on my arm which I received only because I got hit twice in the same spot with a ball that didn’t break >_<. Regular welts go away pretty quick by this is a little sore…Ry though got hit in the knuckles several times and they were all swollen until we put a can of Pepsi on them and it started to go down. So I guess the point is I may get enough time off to be happy though we have a hellish weekend coming up at the end of June…we have 5 or 6 parties in 3 days. But after that I’m taking a mini vacation and going to Fencing Masters on the 26th with my brother and then Ry’s for a couple days while his parents are in the Dominican Republic.

Summer 2012

Well this summer is apparently going to be really…. weird…and crazy. First of all, I’m working so much that I’m probably going to just fall over at some point and sleep for a month straight. We had a wedding on Saturday that I worked for 14 hrs. Good thing: getting like two hundred dollars for just that day. 

And apparently Mom is giving me more money for helping her make the hors d’oeuvres earlier last week. And tonight I’m going to Ry’s to sleep over because we’re leaving for Mass at like 5 AM for a business trip to teach a bunch of CPR classes tomorrow and Thursday. And let’s see…we’re moving the restaurant to a location that is twice as big and I’ll be working there until I go back to school. And then sometime soon I’m going to take the CPR instructor class so I can teach my own classes and get mo moneys than when I go as an assistant with Ry. Plus since all the catering equipment (and a bunch of other stuff) is in storage lockers at the moment, every other day I have to help Dad get stuff out (and back in) and rearrange everything as we try and figure out the best places for things as we need them. Oh yeah that’s the other thing, catering is mad busy right now too, we have a whole bunch of weddings coming up and other miscellaneous parties. 

This is obviously not including any of the fun stuff that I want to do this summer. =P Like a shooting class in August, staying with Ry for a few days, going up to RI to see Code, going to stay at Elf’s parent’s shore house, Elf’s 21st birthday party, swimming, hiking, and other various hanging out type activities. So yeah crazy summer…oh yeah the weird part being that we’re moving…out of the house I grew up in. But…whatever…I’m planning on basically moving out senior year and staying out if I can anyway…

Stay happy! (Even if it’s rainy by you!)

Sorry x(

Sorry for the short hiatus everyone. Had a very busy weekend with work, lots of catering jobs. I’m going to be back and busy tumblring tomorrow (Monday) at some point. I had tried to post something to this effect earlier in the weekend but I figured out too late that my phone didn’t post it… -__-
