And bored and sleepy and what the fuck ever, life.
Here are some pictures instead of words.




P.S. As we were getting off the island, guess whose car buzzed beside us, but in the opposite direction? If you guessed "The Boy's", you were right. *deep sigh*

Not Home Yet

Right now I'm in Neptun, killing time. I'm waiting for Jelena to be ready to leave. Which can happen any time. She said we might even go home today, without sleeping over in Zagreb. OMG, that would be awesome! Because now I feel as if I can't get home soon enough.
So much for the quick update.

My Work Here Is Done

Quite literally. I finished my last shift today at 3pm. I'm pretty much all packed and ready to go. I have mixed feelings about leaving. I'd love to stay longer but I also want to be home. HOME! Where everyone I love is, where everything I know and hold dear to my heart is. Home.
We leave tomorrow at some point, stopping by at some friends' in Zagreb, staying over, going out most likely, and then HOME!

The Boy never came back. The celibacy continues... LOL I know I'm crazy. Obviously, if he had wanted me, he would've said something. But anyway, major disappointment. :(

Now I'm going to Neptun, to have a drink, to say goodbye to people. The next time you'll hear from me, I'll be home. HOME!

Obsessing

Over something I have no right to be obsessing about, I know, thank you very much. So. The Boy. Ah yes. He's gone, OK? Had to drive his sister back home but - BUT! - he said to me he'd be right back. That was Sunday. Today is Wednesday and he is NOT BACK. I want to see him before I go, dammit! Is that so much to ask for, huh? HUH??! No, it's not. Just to see him, I promise. Just to say goodbye, maybe it was nice meeting him or whatever. *is sad*

The making of this post was abruptly stopped due to a certain drunk German who came to sit with yours truly. He also bought yours truly another Red Bull, even though she said she didn't want one, while waving his arms as if they were wings and saying: You want to fly, fly like an eagle... Yours truly then fled back to the apartment. The making of this post shall now be continued.

Tonight I'm supposed to go out. For the last time. Well, not for the last time ever, just on Krk. But I'm working my last shift tomorrow morning so I don't know what to do. God knows if we'd even be back in time for me to open. LOL That would be an awesome way of concluding my work time here - by being late and/or drunk for work. LMAO
Have I told you I'm coming back here for the New Year's? To work, again. Just for a few days because the boss is having a lot of people here for the midnight dive at New Year's Eve. That should be cool.

In other news, Torchwood is back! Woot! Hello, Cpt. Jack Harkness, I've missed you terribly, you and your gayness and handsomeness! And OMG, is he gay in the show too? Cuz that little exchanging of lines between him and Ianto last night was TOTALLY GAY and if they weren't talking about having sex in his office, I don't know what they were talking about! You be the judges:

(Close up on Ianto)
IANTO: If you're interested... I've still got that stopwatch.
JACK: So?
IANTO: Well. Well, think about it. Lots of things you can do with a stopwatch.
JACK: Oh, yeah. I can think of a few.
IANTO: There's quite a list.
JACK: I'll send the others home early. See you in my office in ten.
IANTO: That's ten minutes (click stopwatch) and counting.
(Jack walks away happy)

And now... What to wear tonight? What. To. Wear?

At Work

For your viewing pleasure:

The bar at Neptun

When the dishwasher goes on strike, you gotta do what you gotta do!

No, I didn't drop the tray in the deleted scene!

See?

And you thought it was all glamour...

Jelena, the boss, and lil' me

Me and Sandro, the instructor

I deserve my rest, don't I?

Because I'm A...

... creepy stalker who stalks people on The Inernets, last night I spent some quality time with Facebook and look what I found: The Boy! OK, so he doesn't have a Facebook page (WTF?, right?!) but ha! some of his friends do. Notice the tummy, the funny legs, and I can't help you with his speech, audio is just unavailable (for now muahahahahaha). OK, I'm scaring myself right now so I'm wrapping this up. Onto the mocking of my taste in men!

Six Days And Counting...

Last night we went out. It was only so-so. We asked the boy-gang to join us but they didn't want to. BITCHEZZZ! The Boy was sorta for it but then the rest said no and whaddaya know, they didn't come. Who wants to join me in yelling BOOOOO? Thanks, guys, you're true friends.
So we went to Discotheque Crossroads in Malinska, Krk. Not bad but waaaay too much kids there. And annoying men. Not to mention my staring at the door hoping in vain the boys might show up after all. They didn't. I drank a little, danced a little.

Jelena, Silvija, me, and Jelena in Cross

Afterward we went for a pizza to the gas station. Along with pretty much everyone else from the Crossroads. LOL Came home at 6, woke up at 8, got to work at 9.30, worked till 6, and then I got my period, and now I have cramps. Awesome.
Talked to The Boy a little, asked him when he's going home. He said tomorrow but he'll return right away. I think he's just driving his sister home. 5 more days for anything that might happen to happen. Oh wait.... FUCKING PERIOD! LOL I'm so silly, I know, as if!
I was hyperactive all day long but right now I'm kinda sinking. One cannot function solely on 2 hours of sleep. Or at least, this one can't. Not even Red Bull is doing what it should. I think I developed some kind of an immunity to it yesterday when I had 3 cans. Oh well.
I'm at Neptun now, kinda sorta waiting for The Boy to show up just to see him. I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY for being so incredibly lame but I can't help it! He's rather fat, walks funny, has a speech impediment and he's GODDAMN SEXY! *shrugs* So yeah, that would be my day. And the previous night.

I Don't Wanna Go Home!

HA! That would be what they call a turn for 180°. But seriously, right now, when I think about going back to the real life, I feel slightly sick. Don't wanna, don't wanna, don't wanna! Ew the exams! Ew having mother on my back all the time! I'm a freakin' grown up here and then just as I get used to being treated like one, I have to go back to being somebody's child again. Ugh.

I'll probably be here for the New Year's. To work, of course, for 4-5 days. My boss is organising a midnight dive for some groups of regulars in the centre. Yes, it will be hard work for a few days but I'm sure it would pay off and even more importantly, I'd be away from home for New Year's for once.

Have I told you about the nice Italian couple that we had here? I think I have and if you don't remember, read back, bitchez! Anyway, on their last night they were cooking us dinner, as a thank you, real Italian pasta, man! They used our apartment's kitchen and then we ate outside and after that I sat with them and talked quite a lot. Joking and having fun, it was nice. So today I saw that he had added me on Facebook. LOL I don't really use Facebook for anything other than having the profile, but it's nice nonetheless, making friends and stuff around the world.

We went for a pizza last night again but this time I actually had fun. I guess when you make an effort... But don't get used to me being nice, a'ight? Once I'm home, no more Ms. Nice Gal!

OMG home! In a WEEK! I still have to make Jelena photograph me while I work and so on. Not like the last time I was here when she made hundreds of photos on my very last day when I already got back to being fat. LOL It has to be NOW while I'm still sorta thin and pretty. OK, I'll shut up now before I make you all barf.

Nothing To Say

Seriously, I've got nothing. I've been flirting like mad, a blind man would see I was interested but nothing. So instead of writing, here's me today:


ETA: So tonight The Boy (he does actually have a name and I know it) came with this annoying friend to Neptun for a drink all dressed up and shit before they went on. He did that on purpose just to make me drool, I know it! Man, he looked so good! Where to?, I asked, and he said to another town. Damn him for not being here when he leaves on MONDAY! Tick-tock, people, tick-tock! And now we're gonna go get some pizza. Comfort food, YES! I need it badly.

Day Off

As usual, I'm spending it cooking. It's pretty much the only day when I'm willing to cook so there you go.
I dreamt of McDonalds, I was ordering McSundae with caramel fudge and apple pie. I miss McDonalds and the closest one here is an hour long drive away. *cries* It's obviously time to go home. LOL I also dreamt of The Boy (the incredibly witty nicknames I come up are really something, I know). We made out. And that would be the furthest that my "wet dreams" go. I am so lame. The other night I was working but it was past closing time so I was sweeping inside and they were on the terrace and he came in and asked me if I was still working. I stepped way into his personal space and said: Well what do I look like? and he said: You look good but that's not what I asked. LOL Was that flirting? Cuz lemme tell you, I get nothing form the lame-ass flirting - I need to be thrown on the bar and ravished! Or something. I dunno, it's been to long. Who even says ravished nowadays?! Oh yeah, people who last had sex in the 18th century. Namely, me.
I'm getting along with CR2. I made lunch, we ate, and now we're chatting pleasantly. Let's see how long it'll last. But I'm trying, I really am.
I can't believe I'll be home in 10 days! It flew by, I can honestly say. It wasn't uneventful, what with CR and everything but to go home without a summer fling, well, that's just unacceptable! I fail as a woman. Unrequited crush - pfft!
OK, this was short so here's some me:


I get more beautiful by the minute, don't I? LOL Gotta love photoshop!

Rant & Stuff

But first the rant. You know it's my favourite part of every post.
The other night we were supposed to go out again. We were supposed to go to a concert and then we weren't and then we were and then we weren't and then finally we decided to just go for a pizza. Remember that gas station pizzeria that's open 24/7 where Jelena and I go when we want to get away from the ever-prying ears of Neptun so we can talk? Well. This time she took CR2 with us. Throughout the whole evening I've said maybe a total of two sentences. There's nothing I want to talk about with her. I wanted to talk to Jelena. Openly. As we used to talk. But that was impossible with CR2 around. OK, so she happens to be her BF's sister. I get it. It's family. (Even though she's only been with the said BF for like 2 months or less.) But she didn't even realise she was tainting our place. I was pissed! Seriously. I was so mad at her for inviting her. I don't like CR2. I think she's no good in the broadest sense of the word. It's not that she's stupid but she's crazy in a bad way, and is lazy, and she keeps rolling her eyes at me (OK, so I roll eyes A LOT but dammit, one does not roll eyes at me!) AND I've been told she even makes faces behind my back when I tell her to do something (I've been told that by my boss who totally saw her do it more than once). So I don't like her. And she doesn't like me back. Which is fine. But I'm not the kind who will dislike someone who reciprocates and then go on pretending we're friends or something. I don't care for spending time with her. I just don't. Sue me. But Jelena and her seem to be attached at the hips or something. It's like they're glued together. Suddenly I don't matter at all. So I'm needy, I know. But that's just how I am and Jelena knows that and she's been dealing with it just fine till no. But now, now she keeps taking CR2's side all the fucking time and she spends every waking moment with her and I feel more than redundant. It's like suddenly I don't exist anymore. Ok, so she went out with us. So did it have to be the pizza place of all places? We could've gone to some bar for a drink or whatever. Instead, she's ruined my haven for me for good. Thanks a lot, Jelena, really. Hope you and your so-called sister-in-law have a happy life together.

This weekend was to die of work. OMG, at some points there were up to 5 people behind the bar and still we hardly managed. My boss did the dishes, for fuck's sake! It was madhouse, I'm telling you. But then yesterday he slipped me €50 bonus. Eee! Money's good. It's not the most important thing but it's good to know you're appreciated in one way or the other.

Italians... Oh man. Why don't those people speak any other language but their own? Seriously. There came this group of 8 (I think) Italians and wanted a certain number of cappuccinos (cappuccini, actually, but I digress) but I can't count in Italian, a'ight? Then the woman managed to say five in English. Phew. Then came two guys who wanted to have a certain number of sandwiches to go. It turned out to be seven. Seriously, people, English? Thanks. To be fair, there's an awfully nice young couple staying in Neptun and taking the diving course who speak English very well and it's a joy having them around. See? Not that hard. But most of them refuse to even bother. They speak Italian and we can all screw ourselves. Imagine me coming to, say, Belgium and speaking nothing but Croatian. Exactly.

No news on The Boy front. Except that I almost slapped his ass today. I was passing behind him and there it was, just in front of me. My eyes went straight to it and my hand almost followed suit but I managed to regain some self-controll at the last moment. Seriously, what is the matter with me? Since when is it OK for a waitress to randomly slap guests' butts in the middle of the terrace? I think I might just be losing it.

I got a tee from my boss' wife. LOVE the sign! See for yourself:

Can you see I've lost weight?

Quick Update

...on my boring life here at the deserted island. OK, so it's not as boring as it is back home but it's not exciting either.
Anywayzz... You know the guy I randomly mention every now and then in, like, every post? Yes? Good. So, the guy is apparently breaking up with his GF. I don't really know what "breaking up" means - you either break up with someone or not - but it's good news nonetheless, right? Or at least it would've been if he knew I was alive. And he doesn't. But whatever, I'm a girl and a girl can dream. He commented on my dress today. Now, I should've said something like "Do you like what you see?" and then take it from there but me being me only thought of it a couple of hours later. Oh well.
Tonight we're supposed to go out. Man, I dunno... I'm working in the morning and just... I dunno. I had an awesome time last time and I just know I'll be expecting to have just as much fun and it just won't happen. So I'll think about it.
And this ends my quick update. Good day.

Danced The Night Away

And quite literally.
Last night (well, technically, this morning) I went out with Jelena and CR2 (oh yeah I'm giving her an imaginative nickname like that) to Krk (the town named as the island). It. Was. Fucking awesome.
We closed around midnight, got ready, and went out around 1am. First we were in an open-air concert of a local "star" (that my sister wants to play at her wedding, LMAO), and we started drinking there. We met with some guys that come here (uh... yeah... the one I find cute...) and then we went to a bar where we continued drinking. And then we started dancing. Yes. I danced in public. To house. LMAO And then there was this waiter... Who kinda groped me. LOLOL Asked not for my name but for my age (did he think I was illegal?! LOL) and then asked me to come upstairs with him. I didn't! He was rather handsome but not pretty and also stoned/wasted/plain crazy. He barked!
Anyway, from there we left to thic club, Jungle. I never thought I could be dancing like that! Sure, I drank but not too much, and I danced and I danced and I danced till I couldn't feel my limbs no more. CR2 managed to get us in for free! LOL She also said boys were buzzing around me. I can honestly say I haven't noticed. And I didn't really care either. I wasn't looking for hook-ups. (OK, so I wouldn't say no to the cute boy who doesn't know I'm alive but that's neither here nor there).
We were there till 5am and then we left home. CR2 fell asleep in the car and she was supposed to be working in the morning whereas I was supposed to have a day off. However... She overslept. Duh. So at 8.10am my cell goes off. My boss. He tried to wake her up but that was a no go so he called me. People were sitting on the terrace with no one here. LMAO So I jumped out of bed, rose and shone, no less, and went to work. Luckily, I had a lot of water and wasn't hungover or anything, no headache, no sickness - nothing! I had no trouble whatsoever. Eeee! So instead of today I'll be off tomorrow. Works for me. LOL
Funny thing is that I haven't slept at all, not even after I got off work. I guess the adrenalin hit was just too strong. I just kept on going all day long. Right now, however, I'm feeling a tad sleepy. It's 10pm and it's been long coming. So good night to you and you and you! (OK, yeah, I'm totally singing the song from "The Sound of Music" in my head now.)

Random Blabber

So. Nothing going on but seeing how I'm online and rather bored (where are all of you, people on my MSN list when I'm here willing to chat, huh??), I'm gonna just... type.

Today my work day consisted of mostly hanging around the Neptun cafe doing shit and escorting bunches of Belgian teenagers to the beach volleyball playground (field? pitch? beats me). I've done that like a million times, right? Some times the playground (turf?) would be empty, others not. but every time I'd ask nicely for people to move for a while and they would. It's kids, for fuck's sake! But today... Oh today a group of Slovenian guys simply refused to. We're tourists too, they said. I know, dammit, but these kids are here for fucking two hours! But no. They were so obnoxiously arrogant and full of shit I had no choice but to point the kids to the beach and let the fuckers be. Goddamn inconsiderate bastards! I was so mad, I can't even tell you. I felt really bad for the kids although they didn't seem to mind. But then, what could have I done anway? Get in the fight with eight guys? I'm a tiny girl! LOL And I kinda like my limbs attached to my body and stuff. So yeah, some people suck ass.

In other news, my last three days of work went like this: Tuesday was my day off, Wednesday I worked for exactly FOUR HOURS, and today, well, you heard about today. Sweet, no? But here comes the weekend and it's the highlight of the season so yeah, I'm expecting to be falling off my feet in about 24 hours from now. Yay. On the bright side, more work means more money so yay for reals now.

I missed Torchwood last night. *sadface* I was here at 11.30pm when it was on and then I fell asleep and missed the rerun at 2am. All that not working exhausts a girl, y'know? LOL But anyway, have I told you about the wonder that is Torchwood? Yeah, yeah, you Americans know already but bear with me, OK? I've only just discovered it. Oh and when I say "Torchwood", I totally mean Cpt. Jack Harkness. OMG HOT! John Barrowman, a Glaswegian that plays an American and is classic-Hollywood-hot. Awesomesauce, I'm telling you. And the best part? Wait for it... HE'S GAY! In REAL LIFE! And MARRIED! There are PICTURES! Of him KISSING his partner/husband! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! So there, my reasons to love Torchwood. TV men are so much better than real men. They don't disappoint and they make much better fapping material (for those unfamiliar with the term, look it up at Urban Dictionary, don't make me blush all over my own blog over it).

Huh. I rambled a lot for someone who had nothing to say. It's just one of my many talents, I guess. Think about the wonder that I am now. And with that, I say good night.

Heat, Work, Coffee, Smoke, Sleep

It pretty much sums up my days. You might notice the lack of sea and food in the equation. That's cuz I don't really do sea and food. I didn't get that much tan (or any, really), but man, did I lose weight! You know that awesome feeling when you put your clothes on and it hangs loose? Oh yeah, I've been feeling it lately. And it feels awesome! God knows I'll be gaining it back as soon as I return home but at least I feel good while I'm half naked all the time. Hee.

Things are fine, more or less. Jelena is back, thank God. And NO, not just cuz of her laptop but because I really like having a familiar face around.

Still no cute guys. OK, that's not technically the truth. There's a guy... Now, before you get all excited, you shoul know that I only mean that there he is. I see him but he doesn't see me. *sadface* Don't you just hate girlfriends? Yeah, me too.

Have I told you about my new roommate? I don't know. Anyway, CR has been fired adn on her last day here she got shitfaced drunk. She even threw up in the middle of the Neptun, I kid you not. Bloody idiot. So then I got a new roommate and a colleague. Jelena's BF's sister. Who apparently happens to be somewhat of an alcoholic herself. It's like my boss is scrtching the bottom of the barrel and coming up with the worst shit. Poor guy, can't get a break with the staff this year. Or any year, really. So this chick, while not completely insane as the previous one, is not much better. For one, I think she's incredibly boring. I barely even talk to her. I know, I know, not very nice of Krissie (oh my God, talking about her makes me talk about me in the third person! Do you see now??!), but I just can't stand her "stories". Also, she drinks. A lot. And she has this obnoxious laugh. And she snores. She snores like a really tired man after a day's work would snore. Luckily, she's sleeping in the kitchen so I shut the door, stick my audio porn in my ears and lull myself to sleep. It's working out. She's also really lazy and would rather light a ciggie than do actual work. And then she gets all offended when I point stuff that needs to be done out. It creates an awesome working atmosphere, I'm sure you can imagine. But I don't give a shit. Three more weeks. THREE. MORE. WEEKS. I'm hanging in there.

A NOTE to fellow bloggers that I still read when I get the chance: If you don't reply to your comments, like, ever, I won't comment. That is all.
