From June 2018.

"I finally started my new job today. It's my first job really. Well not really actually. There's all those years in dad's consignment shop. But they don't count because I didn't get paid nor did I have to fill out a W-2. 

But anyway, yeah, new job. I now officially work at the Westwood Twin. I'm going to sell so much popcorn and nachos. I probably will have to work on my upselling skills. I never really had to do that much at the shop. I'm also not sure how comfortable I am pushing someone to take on more than what they want, but maybe after a couple of weeks it'll be better.

I'm going to see so many classic movies this summer. Gonna really expand my horizons. They're doing Akira later this month. I've never seen it before but Alicia assures me it's great. I can't wait. But what I'm really looking forward to is Casablanca. Dad loves that movie and I wanna be able to take him to see it on the big screen. 

And can I just say again how happy I am to have found a job that can work around my schedule. I do so much stuff. And yeah maybe I really should cut back a bit. But I'll keep doing it for as long as I'm able to.

I wonder if I can convince the Andersons to rent a print of the first Chance Champagne movie. I'll have to ask."
