2am: I totally wish I wasn’t having to get off break right now :(…this sucks.

5am: Wow the pace of work today has totally changed…We aren’t standing around waiting for the fixture team or begging Donny what we should do next…instead we are opening box after box of product and everyone from the overnight seems to be awake. For some strange reason though the team leader for food is here JOan and it’s as if she only knows MY name. She’s been calling “Corinne can you do this? Corinne can you do that? Corinne can you take this back, and clean up this spill…Corinne can you help these people work this out.” It is kind of annoying that she keeps calling on me because it’s not like I’m not already busy or slackinig off it’s as if my name is the only one she knows and she knows that I’ll get the job done.

It’s been so tiring this second part of my shift because my Target greatland is remodeling and getting in produce…and becoming a full grocery store “Super Target”. I’m not going to be around to enjoy the super target because I’ll be in Scotland on the 29th of April and leaving on the 27th of April and the super target is reopening up on the 15th of April. They call all the target produce Pfresh and this whole time I’ve been working at target has been leading up to pfresh being set up. It’s been a really fun experience and I’m happy to have had the opportunity to work here. I kind of wish I could continue working at Target because it is so nice to actually have a consistant job and a paycheck every week. I feel that it has been extremely hard trying to do my Scotland job search because it’s like no one is actually getting back to me about working.

I’m going to have to get a visa soon but I’m not sure which visa i’ll have to get. I recently recieved a letter from the people at Aberdeen University saying that they’d recieved my application to their university. Aberdeen wasn’t my first choice in university but they did have classes that pertained to what I wanted to study. I haven’t heard anything back from the other universities yet. The sad thing is that I can’t get my visa application as a student unless I get accepted into a university first.

I have to be in the United States in order to get my visa interview so I’m really nervous that I may need to head back to the United states after I get to Scotland in order to get my visa to live in Scotland. This next month is going to be crazy! Not only do I still have major Scotland planning to do but I also have just heard that because the remodel is almost over that they might be cutting my hours soon to next to nothing.
