surfing the internet like the good ole days

We didn't have much going on today, so I spent a good amount of time searching for new sites to entertain me.
And I found two!
They're both completely random and fun to visit when you're bored (*coughatworkcough*)

Neatorama!

and

Geekosystem!

They're nothing new, but I just discovered them, and am instantly in love with their random blend of pop culture, geekyness in all forms, and historical parody.
Also, finally found Hell Yes, Hipster Disney which makes me laugh.
I clearly have too much time on my hands.

Monday's are never exciting

I really need to decorate my desk. It's kinda sad looking right now.

But on the bright side, I got a bag full of yarn fromRachel. It's crazy how much she always has to spare. She still had about two garbage bags full when we left.

TMNT Thursday

Probably should preface this so it doesn't sound completely random.
In our job training, they came up with a new sensei program where we report to someone to check on our work. They named them after Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles characters (mine was Donatello).
So to celebrate when we complete training, we had to dress like our favorite turtle. There was a tiny ceremony where our sensei's presented our masks to us.
It was actually kinda sweet.
My fellow trainee's.

Mid. week thingamajig

So I've been feeling a bit blah about work. I don't think I'm adjusting or fitting in as well as I'd like to. It doesn't help that I sit facing way from everyone and am the epitome of socially awkward.
So I thought I'd start decorating my "desk" so maybe I won't feel so new (and as if every day could be my last).
Silly me, forgot that the Hallmark store is geared towards only celebratory themed knickknacks and frames. And I'm not getting married or graduating, so I was fresh out of luck.
But in searching for something at least slightly silly I came across this.

If only it were in the form of post-its or a mouse pad or something office related, it would have been mine.

what a way to make a living

Yesterday was my first day of work!
Well, technically, it was orientation. Lots of speakers and explaining what everyone does and paperwork and all that other fun stuff.
Today. Today will be my first actual day of work. Part excited, part anxious. Fingers crossed I don't do anything embarrassing or completely wrong.

This is my freaking-out-I-hope-I'm-good-at-this face.

Also, the color scheme for the company is the same as my room. So that's cool.
