I went in to get the plaster model of my teeth done yesterday. It. Was. Disgusting. First, they took pictures of my teeth. Lots of pictures. From various angels. They even gave me these hook things to pull back my lips with. Not pleasant. At all. Then they put this pink play dough like goo into curved containers and stuck them in my mouth. It tasted like toothpaste. I got pink goo all over my face. When the thing's pulled from my teeth it made the most dusgusting sound. A wet suction popping sound. I'm never going through that again. =__=;;
On a more pisitive note, I got a job! Just when I've given up on having a summer job, one pops up. My uncle's brother's wife is a solicitor/barristor. I asked a while back if it's possible for me to stay at her office for a bit during the summer so I could see what a lawyer's job's like. I completely forgot about it and she called yesterday, telling my mom to tell me to be ready for work at 10AM this morning. So I went and I worked. Oh my god. I never realized how much PAPER is in a law office. This is what I did today.
Run errand, find out I have to refill out a form since they have a new one now, flounder around, looking for a pen, gets it from the information desk guy who harped at me for being so unprofessional until I felt completely useless and wished I never accepted the job. He was trying to be helpful in his own way, I guess.
File. Paper work, yay.
Run another errand. The door's locked so I just stood there, wondering what I should do. There were two ladies sitting outside, talking on the phone. I must've looked pretty helpless since she told me to ring the door bell. I did and a guy came out to help me but I stayed outside. Then a few minutes later, another lady coming out from the office on her way to lunch asked me if I was alright and do I need some help... I didn't look that pathetic... Did I?
Fax and photocopy some crap. Boy, wasn't that exciting? =p
Went out for lunch. One hour lunch break. Rushes online only to find Gaia dead. Finally Gaia comes back but I had to go. Hnn... gonk
Two more errands. Goes to the wrong bank. Get yelled at by uncle's brother. Well, no yelled. He just told me that I went to the wrong bank and I should be more careful and look around in the future. His tone's usually a bit mean. I hate being so inexperienced. How am I suppose to know which bank to go to? There are 3 within a 5m radius!
More filing. Gosh, does the filing ever end?
Shred paper. A lot of paper. A giant pile of paper. Enough paper for the shredder to over heat half way and refuse to shred any more. Did I mention that I had to remove the staples? Fun...
Then I was done for the day. Not bad for six hours of work, wouldn't you say? I had to changed the calender too... Don't ask.
I hope I'm getting paid for this. Running all over the place is going to give me a fabulous tan and yummy thighs. I guess this job isn't all that bad. <3
