Cutie, Cutie, make sure you move that booty

So, lately, I have been feeling a little bit depressed. All last week I just came home from work and went in my room for the entire night. And while I was spending hours on end in my room I got to thinking about how I wanted to switch rooms. There is a lot of memories that I have in that room that I just want to forget about. ( All you people with sick minds that probably sounded.. dirty? Or something..) Anyway.. So I wanted to switch rooms. But then I got to thinking that the only other room downstairs where I want to be is a room that I didn't want to be in at all. Why you ask? Becuase when a certain someone lived with my family that is where his room was and well.. I want no memories of him. So I knew that if I was going to change rooms then I was going to have to make it a BRAND NEW ROOM! So.. I woke up on Saturday morning and decided to get the H out of my old room and make my new room litteraly.. a brand new room. I painted. Thats right. I got " Artsy ." So this is the room befor I started painting. I got everything out and taped it all and then got the paint ready.







Isnt the paint PRETTY? Actually.. There it looks like poo but when I got it all done it is really pretty.

So While I was taping the room down my mom was cleaning out my window well. Aparently there has been this HUGE ASS TREE growing in it? I know.. Who knew? So my mom and my cousin and my dad tried to get this huge tree out of my window well..





While they were working so hard getting that tree out of my window I was....Uhm... Painting? Some of you might have recieved that picture in a text message =)



Haha. I know pretty huh? Anyway, So here is the room after it is all painted and I just barley started bringing my stuff in.



And now... for the final room... I don't know why but some of the pictures are blury... =( and it makes me sad but.. you can see them still. Here is the final pictures.... drum roll please....

The closet area


My Picture wall..I Love me some marilyn and James =)
My window area...that is now tree free =)

My bed is a little bit messed up but you can still see how pretty it is =)
So there it is friends and blog stalkers. My new room. I L.O.V.E it! And I love that it has its own little private area in the basement that closes off from everything else and that my bathroom is in the same area! Its Uh-mazing! And there is no more memories of anyone or anything! Yay!


On a different note. I have been really struggling with my new position at work. Not with the position its self just with one part of it... Training a new employee. I won't go in to detail becuase I don't want to hurt anyones feelings or anything like that but I have just been having a hard time with it.. anyway but I walked into work today and I saw THIS




I know you can't see it really well but I have my own little managers box by all the other managers! Yay for me! Its all official and full of awesomeness. Haha actually its not that big of a deal I just thought it was kind of cool. Now people can leave me love notes =) Haha Jk. Anyways. So there is whats new with me. Pretty boring huh?

Jem Doll?

I have a friend named Jacqueline. She use to work as a Breakfast hostess with me at the hotel, and that is where we met. Sadly I have not seen her in forever and I miss her. We became so close and would have SO much fun while at work and away from work. We use to get ourselvs into trouble by doing things such as : Going as slutty disney






Also we would use all of the Rice crispy cereal that was for the breakfast bar to make Rice Crispy Treats for everyone =)
Also making the kitchen's oven mit look like the Arbys mit!


One time we snuck into this guests room ( He was so hot and we totally had a crush on him) and found out what kind of Underwear he wears.... I mean. What? No..? We didn't do that.........Remove Formatting from selection..It was Calvins.

We would get yelled at when we would draw pictures of creepy guests on the dry erase board and gave them nicknames such as "Insest child" and " Pedifile Arthur" <--- He looked like the cartoon charachter Author

Or the time when we put the condoms we found in the parking lot on the bulletin board ... they didn't like that..

Or the time when we turned the company Christmas party into the UGLY SWEATER CHRISTMAS PARTY...



Then we turned the "gag gift" into a...fashion show...?


Why do I still have a job here? Why have I not been fired?
Haha we are so funny! Anyway the point of this post.. Well.. really there is no point. I just wore a shirt the other day that Jacqueline gave me. Its a JEM DOLL shirt. I have never heard of these JEM DOLLS apparently they were a big deal. They were dolls that had this show or something... they had a band and they were total rock stars ( Big deal right?) Anyway she gave me this shirt becuase she would always tell me that I looked like one of the girls. The Pink one!! THIS ONE!
She would call me her Little Jem Doll she swore I was like a clone of this doll. She said becuase I had the feathered bangs and the blonde hair and chubby cheeks I could go as the Jem Doll for Halloween every year. a Haha I don't see it but Whateva!
I miss Jacqueline. I miss eating bottle caps with you! Getting out two bowls seperating them .. you get the rotten ass brown ones and I get the delicious red and orange ones =)


I miss us being Uhhh Sausage Girls!! ( Straight out of the mouth of Insest Child!)

Remember..

When I was PREGNANT! That was a ball full of FUN!

Picture Tagged

I was tagged. I was told go to my pictures and post the 4th picture that comes up. I have exactly 4 pictures on my computer at work.
This was when I was in Disneyland with Johanna in May. I was holding up our tickets to get on the magical shuttle to take us to the magic kingdom. We were pretty set on everything being *MAGICAL* That was the best week Ever!
You can read ALL about our trip by clicking right HERE!! come on you know you want to! You love reading about my life =) The rules are that I am suppose to tag 4 people. But I am not going to because I don't really care about the 4th picture that you have on your computer. Love you all though hehe

Poo on Holli

Somewhere today I must have worn a shirt or a sign or something that says " Hi! I am Holli and I would love it if you treated me like shit today." Today has seroiusly been " Be rude to Holli day" Seriously. Let me go into detail as of to why I think that.

5 minutes after waking up today the first contact I had with someone was rude. I won't mention who it was or what they said becuase then I will never head the end of it but what was said to me was R-U-D-E.


So yes. Day started off really good.


Then at work. Ya know... My favorite place to be. This guest comes to check in. He was upset becuase his room was not ready yet. ( Well thats what your going to hear when show up to check in 4 hours befor check in time!!) Anyway so he kept making rude comments about the hotel and about how his room was not ready. Whatever. I tried to be nice ( I know.. Usually if someone is rude to me I am like wicked bitch of the west..but I was nice) and tell him we could go ahead and do the paperwork for his room. I simply asked for his credit card. He litteraly throws it at me so it falls to the floor behind the computer, and the guest goes " Ooopsie."


ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Ooopsie!?


So I had to get on the floor and look for his credit card. RUDE. Then he asked me to look up his Hilton Honors profile. Not a big deal but I saw his card in his wallet and he simply could have given me the number. So I look it up and I tell him and he goes " I don't believe that you found it I want someone else to come and look at it."


ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Dill hole


So he was a real nice guy. Liked him alot! Then these 2 guys come up to the desk and ask me to ring this guests room. We have this bowl of gum sitting out on the desk for our Halloween Candy. ( Right I know.. What the fu? GUM!? We couldn't even fork out 3 bucks and buy a bag of that rotten ass orange and black pumpkin taffy. Oh No.. only the best for Hampton Guests. Have a piece of trident ) So I ring the guests room and they take a few pieces of Halloween Gum. And one of them throws the wrapper down on the front desk. His friend goes " Don't just leave that wrapper there" and the other guy goes " Front desk girl will throw it away." Yes. I would LOVE to throw away your garbage becuase that is what myself " Front desk girl" is here for. Or maybe I am here to point out the garbage can that is 2 feet away from you.



Assbag



Am I right or what? POO ON HOLLI DAY! Maybe its becuase I am ugly betty today. For reals. No make up. Hair up with a pen. Look and feel like I have not slept in like a month... Yeah ugly betty.
Ugly people get no love. =(

The Door Finally Opened


I have been working at the Orem Hampton Inn since I was 16 years old. I am now 21 it has been exactly 5 years this month since I have worked there. I started out working every other Saturday as a breakfast hostess and then over a 2 year period I started working a little more every week.In my spare time I would come in and work on training for the front desk. Learning the computer system and how to answer phones things like that. After a sitatuion that came up leaving me well.. screwed over as a breakfast hostess I started working on the Front Desk. I learned it very quickly and I like to think that I started doing an awesome job on the desk. Also I started training in other departments so that I would know what to do if they needed help. Anyway... so a few more years had gone by and there had been a lot of situations that came up and things that happened that left me thinking and feeling that it was very un fair and that I was putting in a lot of hard work and it was getting me no where. Not that I think you should always have a motive for working hard my parents taught my sisters and I to have a very strong work ethic and that you should work hard no matter what. But it just started to feel that I was getting walked on and used and it became very frustrating. After many talks with my managers all I was getting told time after time was " Doors will open for you Holli you just have to be patient, and continue to work hard." Well I have always tried to keep that in mind but I know that there are no doors that will ever open for me becuase my mom is a manager and becuase of thatI can't be. I continued to keep working hard but my attitude and my moral just keep getting worse and worse becuase my hard work was getting me no where but treated badly and getting walked on. I have a new front desk manager who worked at the hotel last year and ended up leaving but has now come back. To make a long story last week he told me he was working on an idea to get me the Front Desk Supervisor position. Of coure I was thankful for that but I did not think anything will come of it becuase I have been told myself numerous times that the position is not needed... ( Example of my frustration and hard work getting me no where) Other managers have pitched the idea for me to get me promoted but agian nothing ever came of it. But yesterday I was told that I got the promotion! Dennis ( My manager) typed up an entire letter for the General Manager of what my responsibilites would be and why I should get the promotion!! I am so excited! It came with a raise which I will not write on here becuase this raise that I am so greatful and in need of is not something that most people would get excited about but I am!!! A door has finally opened for me and I could not be happier. I know I bitch about the hotel all the time but its becuase I have felt that I just get walked on but my hard work has paid off. In my opinion its a little over due haha but whatever! I could not be more happy and proud of myself. I know that sounds dumb and probably selfish but I don't care!! I can't wait!! I start my new position on Monday and I am so excited. I have been praying so hard that I will find a new job or that the Hotel will get better until I find one. I made the decision that I should stay at the hotel until I get my financial situation taken care of ( That I will spare you guys and not get into) But I am so happy that my hard work has finally paid off and I am now officially The Front Desk Supervisor! Go Me Go! Wish me luck!

RAHsTY

Hi. Hi to all my blog stalkers. I am kind of bored with blogging. Nope. Wait. Rewind. I am kind of bored with life.. there for I have nothing to blog about. Yeah that sounds more like it. I am in such a boring routine. Go to work...Die of bordem... Come home...Die of bordem some more... Go to bed... Lay in bed for hours and hours becuase apparently my body without discussing it with me first decided to become an insomniac. I have not slept in like hmmm a week now. Pretty awesome. And for the first time in a week that I am actually tired enough to sleep I have to work the Night Audit shift 11pm until 7am.. Thats just spit in your face kick you in your crotch fantastic isnt it? So I worked the audit last night and it went by pretty fast. I love working the audit I don't have to deal with anyone... and by anyone I mean not only the guest but managers and co workers as well. And they probably like it to becuase they don't have to deal with me. Hehe. I spread only Sunshine here at the Hampton =) Oh by the way. I have a toothache. I went and saw Crentist the Dentist and he said I need a Root Canal. Its 900.00...up front. DENTIST YOU CRAZY? I dont have that to spend on one little tooth. So stayed tuned for more posts with me complaining about how badly my tooth hurts. So here I am agian. Its 1:16 in the Am and I am at work blogging. Yes. Breaking all the NO INTERNET rules. I walked into work today I walk past the front desk to clock in and I see this picture hanging up at the front desk. I see it. I stopped. Walked backwards thinking to myself " What The FU" I go look at it and its THIS:

Ok What the RASTY ( <-- Rot Ass Nasty ) picture of me? And one of my managers comes up and looks at me staring at the random picture of me that I have NO IDEA about and goes " HAHA! That was taken of you last fall by a camera phone!!! And look you were happy then!!" Ok first of all. Uhm CREEPO. Second of all WHAT THE FU? And finally why is there a huge rasty picture of me hanging up at the front desk? Oh to surpirse me. Uhm ok. WHATEVER. And apparently I am suppose to keep it hung up all week. Random....

I made sugar cookies with my sister Meagen today. Sugar cookies and special popcorn. We delivered them to friends. We went reverse trick or treating. It was fun. And by I made sugar cookies I mean Meagen made them and I sat and watched. Thats all. By friends. Maybe I'll try to go find a life so that I can have something to post about. Haha.. I kid kid

Cafe Junkie


Hey there. Its me. HOLLI...

There is a picture for you in case you forgot what I look like. I know I have not posted in like For-Ev-Uh! Want to know why? Oh please let me tell you. No big deal really.. Its just because my INTERNET privalages have been TAKEN AWAY at work! Want to know why? Oh please let me tell you. Becuase a certain someone who shall remain nameless *..Cough... my manger...cough* was looking at some Sleezey Mcsleeze websites and getting his chat on with some Slutty McSlut girls. So becuase of that the Internet has been taken away at work for all front desk employees. Yes my job is awesome. My day from 7am until 3pm is the happiest time of my life. What do I do all day at work you ask....I slowly die a little bit inside each day of Bordem. No more blogging at work, no more MSN messenger to talk to Meagen on, no more police reports, no more Perez Hilton every morning, no more blog surfing.. its.. all...gone. Boo. I know this " policy" will not last long.. nothing ever does there but while it is in effect... I am dying of bordem at work. Friends..Call me at work just to give me something to do..but don't ask any hotel related questions or I will hang up on you. Well, I hope the MANAGER who is to blame for this atleast got Slutty Mcsluts number or Email or something so that he can atleast keep chatting it up with her on his discusting websites while he is at home. Way to go man! Your the best boss ever!
Reasoning for my Cafe Junkie title. Well... would you like to know where I have been hanging out?
Its been here.







Thats right. I know you probably just thought to your self " Holli .. in a BOOK store. Uh what the FU?" But its true. ( Ok side note. Why would I take a picutre in the maternity book section. Weird..) Anyways. I love book stores. I love reading in book stores. I have been for the past 3 days. Twice to borders and tonight at Barnes and Noble. Now let me just say that I am not one of those girls who hides in the corner of an isle and if anyone sees me I yell " Go away! This is my section! I don't like people! I only like books! Go away! MY ISLE" No no.. I am one of those girls who sits all curled up in a ball in the big chairs that have all around the store or somtimes in the Cafes that they have there. I love it. I love the smell of coffee and paper haha. It is relaxing and is stress reducing for me. It gets me out of the house but does not cost anything. I can go into another world and get my mind off of how I hate my job. How I am in debt. How I miss Alex. How I am beggining to feel like a failure in life. I can just be in the world that is in my book. It is a quiet place that I can get away from Tv's and phones ringing and the barking dog.
It is kind of weird. I actually hate reading. Really I do. I think its ridiculously boring. I have always hated reading. But I think I like it becuase of those reasons I just listed above. Maybe its just the quiet enviroment that I like. I could spend hours in a book store and not even read. Just looking through books and looking at all of the covers and grabbing the ones that catch my attention to see what they are about. I don't know what it is about book stores but it just gives me a feeling of relief if only for the I spend in there. I can forget about everything else going on in my life. Even if I just read what the book is about I feel like I can get away from my world for a minute. But I will admit that I do love the feeling I get when I have finished a book. I feel like I have accomplished something.
I know that sounds really cheesy and retarted but whatever. I don't care. I love book stores, but I will always hate reading. Weird.
So that is what I have been up to. Hanging out at books stores after I leave work where I am internetless. Still waiting to hear about the job that I interviewed for on Monday. I got a call for 2 more interviews yesterday and today. We will so how those go.
