I've been a bad, bad girl

I'm sorry that I have terribly neglected my blog. :(

Needless to say, I have started college at the wonderful University of Michigan (Ann Arbor), and surprisingly...I'm having difficulty with the transition from high school to college. I think it's more that I knew exactly how to manipulate the system in high school and how to put in exactly the amount of effort and care needed to get an A, and now it's very different. Sad :(

----

I also changed jobs! I used to work as a cashier at a pretty high-class Japanese restaurant, and now I'm working at a more casual Japanese restaurant as a waitress. I had no idea waitressing would be so hard! Guys, tip your waitress/waiter ~20%! The work, effort, and multi-tasking needed for this job is no joke, and many times, your waitress/waiter is only getting $2-4 AN HOUR! An extra dollar or two doesn't really make a difference to you, but is the difference between a shitty tip and good one that will make your waitress's day!

I don't really know why I'm working. I applied completely spontaneously when I was walking by and they pretty much hired me on the spot. Yeah, I have no idea why I'm working! I don't need the money or experience (although I've always wanted to try waitressing). Back when I had a huge crush on my coworker, that was the bigggg reason why I continued working there even though I wasn't really getting along with the boss. Now that I don't like him that much anymore (he's still a hottie though), I don't really have a reason! I think it's 1) I'm starting to like everyone there (even the boss! He's actually a softie at heart :) He was concerned that I wasn't eating enough good food so he made the staff lunch something that I like!) and 2) I'm too scared to quit. Haha. Actually I think it's number 2. I had the hardest time quitting at Yotsuba even though I had a very legitimate reason, and I put it off till the absolute last second. I love Yotsuba though!!!! They're the best sushi in Ann Arbor, hands down! And I've tried Sushi.com, Yamato, Miki, and Ayaka. Best quality, best chefs, and moderate pricing!

So obviously the shopping ban failed. :) But it's okay....after all, what else am I going to spend my hard-earned Ayaka money at!!!

So I've bought:
- 4 Revlon Super Lustrous lipglosses (I love them so much, especially Cherries in the Glow)
- Fresh Soy Cleanser
- Zirh Fix (awesome awesome acne treatment)
- Prestige eyeliner (awesome awesome awesome. It is so soft and DOES NOT SMUDGE. Well, when combined with the ELF primer. It's kinda hard to take off though)

So Miss Queenie is having an AWESOME giveaway!! Head over here to check it out. She's a very cute Canadian blogger, who has a really cool make-up tutorial here.

Work hard, Jenny
Because you would not be happy if you don't do well in school
And it's important to be happy in life

How are the Revl lipglosses?
I want some pretty, not too sticky lipgloss
Any suggestions?

How are you?
