Iced Coffee Leads to Energy

I close my eyes and shelter them
From the fear.
I slowly take my right foot
And hold it over the edge,
Dangling my toes.
I walk off the edge,
Falling into the pool of risks.
I hold my breath
And hope
That there are no sharp rocks at the bottom
Or cold water
Numbing my toes
Waiting to punish my mistake.

My cat and I have a lot in common. Or just 2 things. One being that we both claim the same mother-like thing...only I was born out of her...my cat was just driven in a car for an hour by her. So I win there. Another thing is that we are both angel-like in the day...and ninjas by night. Or at least mine is set on a schedule...her ninja-like qualities can appear at any given moment.

I took a rather big risk applying at Nosh...just as I have taken many risks throughout the past 2 years. I feel like they have made me a more outgoing person and have led me toward the person I see myself being. I'm not quite there, but I am sure that this job will get me there. It was a risk worth taking and one of the greatest experiences I have ever had.

Ankur showed me the bar today. It was really amazing...mainly him...because he's really nice and funny. He made me ice coffee which was the most amazing coffee thing ever. I also love Lynn and Coreen...they train me in. The chef gave Jess and I a sample of the Gnocci which was amazing...I don't even like dumplings, but this scratched that idea completely...they could make a shoe taste good if they wanted. I love my job...and it won't be the last time you hear that.

School is over tomorrow. Sooooooo excited as you know. Today was rather lame, but whatever...quick run through: Studied...Lake City Tour...Took a Latin test that bitch-slapped me in the face...Peer Tutored (Adam and Jake make me laugh)...Finished Statistics project and took a walk to Jad's mom's store and she fed us brownies...chatted with Tom and shared a good laugh. Hung out with JDK at Hope's Harvest...went to work...end.

I smell Lilacs in my house. It's lovely. My cat rests at the top of the recliner next to my mom's head. They are practically one being.

Goddess by day. Ninja by night. I took the jump off the edge into the pool of risks and I was lucky to find warm refreshing waters, free of sharp rocks.

Have a lovely evening and morning.
Hasta Banana!
