This morning I woke up at 6:00 to ride my younger brother to the school bus stop. Even though the cold morning air was trying to cheer my body up, I was not fully awake. While riding my motorcycle, I thought I was still dreaming. In actuality, I did not really wake up until I washed my face with a cold towel. My pet bunny, Bubu, acted excitedly while I was approaching it. After giving several pats on its head, I freed it from its small cage, and he was running fast as if it were chased by a dog.
Afterward, I went to work. Actually, today is the first day of my part-time job. I was consistently troubled by the lady sitting next to me this morning. She often lost and forgot things. More often than not (=Often), when she lost something, she turned to me. WHY? Did I look like the kind of person who’d take others’ belongings as my own?
Since I had already spent 60 dollars on my lunch, I gave up the idea of going to a 7-11 to buy myself a cup of coffee, as I did yesterday. It’s 12:41 p.m. now, but I feel like it’s been a whole day.

During the working hours in the bank where I work part time today, I started reading the Discovery Magazine. One of the articles I read was about an iceberg photographer—Camille Seaman, a half native American, who was born in Berkley, California in 1969. The photos that she had taken were amazingly beautiful, making me well-motivated to see a real iceberg with my own eyes.



A lady working in the bank brought me a whole lots of envelops and documents. Then, she told me to put each of the documents into the envelops. I believed this would be my main assignment today because there has not been many applicants coming in to apply for school loans so far (and it was 3:16 in the afternoon). I’ve got only 21 applicants approaching me for school loans today. Unlike yesterday when I had only 17 applicants, I am today faced with all these endless-like documents and envelopes. It’s a day of hustle and bustle to me.
