Clerks revisited

Left work early on my penultimate day -glorious weather and back to school time meant that we had no more than 3 people in at any one time. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't get a single food order after I left and that is unheard of. I did get the chance to polish the inside of the slides so they were 'slide-ier.' My favourite part of that job was holding myself in a contorted position halfway down the spiraling tube so my body was no bigger than a bedside table - while pressing for dear life so as not to slide down before I was finished.

Just watched Clerks with Louis, which is one of my all time favourite films, but it seems oddly more relevant now that I'm a little older; and just before my last day of work as a cafe assistant. Possibly because I can identify myself with Dante in several ways, the most obvious being, for better or for worse, not liking change after getting comfortable. But by going to university I will be stepping out of my comfort zone, but you know what? That's ok with me. Gotta do a few things in life that scare you.
