The Struggle (11/13/17)

I think I've lost my creativity. My guitar-playing, my writing, even my everyday expression when it comes to my clothes. I've lost all of that. I think I've lost my creative mind and I think it all is stemmed from working at a corporate company. Starbucks. I've been working here for about 6 months now and my life is consumed by it. Partially because now I'm a slave to the 40 hour work week (plus school) and the fact that I have to abide by a dress code and uniform. I've never been one to want to follow the rules, and this is one of the first times I feel like I have to, to an extent. Due to my financial situation, I'm currently stuck here and I have to do a good job to keep the hours that I have. Also due to my financial situation, I can't go shopping. I haven't gone out and bought any item of clothing for myself in over 5 months and it sucks. I can't even afford to do my laundry as often as I should, so it seems like my clothing options are always limited even though I have way more than the average person. Back to my job and financial situation, I don't really have time to do anything creative. Even as I write this, I'm sitting at the bar at work while no one is ordering drinks.

I have to say, though, things are going to get better. I have a job interview tomorrow morning and if I get it I'll be a lot more financially stable and have the time and money to do the things that I love.

Ok, I gotta get back to work. I'll update you later.
