I got a promotion!
I started at the bar/restaurant I work in exactly two years ago on Superbowl Sunday.
I came to this country on my own and I didn't (and still don't really..) know the language.
It is an English speaking bar and all the staff are immigrants from all over the world so very quickly my colleagues became my family, people who have been through what I was going through and we became very close.
I waitressed there for a year and a half, then for the last six months I have been bartending and finally now I got a promotion to full time manager.
My new job is in a neighboring city so it means much more travel and much more responsibility.
Considering my next birthday will be my *cough* 30th (yes, I said it) I guess it's time for me to once again become serious.
Here is a journey in pictures back in time to our crazy monthly theme parties we have at the bar.

70's party



Decorating for halloween



Riding the bus to the toga party (lots of strange looks on the way)



Purim (Israel's halloween)



Cowboys and Indians (with a very unflattering waitress pouch)



Christmas



Coconut Jam, lots of Reggae and Mai Tai's!



St. Patrick's Day



Pirate Party Aaaaaarrrrrrrrr ho ho ho and a bottle of rummmmm



Another Halloween, my brother and I came as dead Wayne and Garth (his make up had all rubbed off by the time this picture was taken)



Another Cowboys and Indians (this time I was a cowgirl)





Parties aside, this bar has a very serious history. This is a big reason why we are all so close there.

Even with so much going on with my work and it feels like it is all I do lately I managed to find time to do this last week





Cupid's Victim, coming soon



Much love <3
