Holy crap man the store is sooo empty. I'm constantly amazed by the crap our customers find to purchase for themselves. What would we do without these bargain shoppers? Loose our jobs probably. Wait, we're already loosing our jobs. If I'm lucky we'll have enough customers to prolong our demise until my next paycheck. I'm really enjoying the lack of lab activities on account of the lab machines being packed up in what appears to be saran wrap... not sure about that. I also take joy in telling our customers our lab is packed up/closed and we're not able to develope their film. It may sound synical but I'm just not a big fan of developing film. We have these nice chairs previously used for our customers at the print bar (which isn't there anymore) currently behind the counter, I like to set my computer up on a shelf under the counter and watch a movie or two while taking advantage of our new seating. Good fun. Oh! and we finally got a sign that says "only 10 days left!" we haven't hung it yet. I take this as a good sign because it atleast tells me we're not closing before 10 days lol. I was about to forget the most hilarious part about working at a store going through liquidation. Signs all over the place (Big red signs 3' x 12' that read Store closing sale.) explaining how we're closing our store. Customer comes in, spends about 15 mins looking around and says, "are you guys closing?" me, "yeah... see the big red sign that says 'closing sale'?" him/her, "ohhh so are you guys moving or closing?" me, "no we're closing." him/her, " oh that's too bad I wish you guys were staying open." "yeah me too...". Good times though. Lots of interesting stories. Our clock is missing... it's really bothering me.
It's about 24 days till I go to Japan. That is sooo soon... I'm pretty nervous about going back but at the same time so excited about it. It feels really surreal to think I'm going back since it's been almost exactly 4 years. I'm going to miss my friends, dogs, cats and family quite a bit when I go. I feel like I have this sugar coated dillusion of what Japan will be like and I'm afraid I'm going to be let down.
I have made some really cool friends this semester and I'm kind of sad that I have to leave them for the whole summer. My best friend is graduating from high school right after I leave and his birthday is the day after that, what horrible timing on my part. I'm hoping I can still hang out with people after I get back before school starts for the fall semester.

Sooo here I am leaving a comment.
Dude, I would be super excited to work at Ritz camera, even if it is going out of business. I mean, you get to play with cool cameras. I just write articles on "baconnaise".
Ritz is cool to work at but we don't have any cameras to sell... lol. We literally have nothing. We're closing on Friday! yays.
