13/04/25 my life feels like a romcom

i love updating my silly little blog on here and honestly a lot has happened in the past 2 weeks so of course, i'm gonna share with strangers on the internet. if you're reading this, good for you. maybe you can laugh with me because if we don't laugh, we'll cry.

so where i left off 2 weeks ago, i had hooked up with one of my friends back home. we hooked up literally everyday before i flew back to the uk. like to the point where we were in my room sunday night/monday morning and afterwards, he helped me pack my suitcase and i left for the airport at 4am with no sleep. it was quite bittersweet really.

we had a conversation before i left though, that i didn't want to do long distance or commit to anything that new while we were both in different countries. however, next time i was home, we both would be down to pick things back up again. so all was fine.

i got back to the uk and started my new job and honestly it's great. it's a good restaurant, the whole team has been so welcoming and i'm getting on with everyone. it feels like i've been there for months. and i really started to get on with one of the chefs.

she started flirting with me as soon as i started and at first i wasn't sure because of my friend back home but, to make a long story short, i've been hooking up with her for the past week. we haven't told anyone in work, we're acting casual and sneaking in kisses where we can, it's honestly like a movie.

now, i've been honest with both of them. i told my friend back home about the chef and vice versa. the chef is chill, she also has other people right now. but my friend back home is getting a bit jealous so it's getting a little sticky. however, he's been completely clear with me, if nothing happens between us then yes, he'll be sad but we were friends first so i'm not gonna lose him from my life. the absolute relief.

so yeah, my life the last couple weeks has been filled with working, sleeping, and hooking up with this chef. other funny things have happened too. like i had a guest at a table give me a little book called "daily strength" and it's filled with bible passages. i sat beside a little old lady on the bus yesterday and she started preaching to me about god. one of the other chefs, he's like a 50 year old man, he's been really inappropriate and he complained yesterday that i was wearing baggy cargos instead of my flared jeans (which make me ass look great btw).

i swear it feel like i'm in a sitcom sometimes, like my life is like the truman show or some shit and pretending that there's little cameras everywhere is what is keeping me sane right now.
