I’m so excited because I just got a job at a co-op as a deli clerk. I start Monday and I couldn’t be happier. I get to make smoothies, coffee drinks and sandwiches all day long. What could be better?

This week has been especially awesome. I did my first ever job interview and got the job. I did yoga outside for the first time in a while and it was so refreshing.
