Covent Garden Flowers; Tuesday [06/12].

And so it would seem that Astrid managed to get herself a job. And while she sort of enjoyed the whole barter system she'd developed, primitive and forcing her to weigh the importance of materialistic things, she had to admit that this would be much better. To have an actual flow of a little bit of money so she didn't have to eat in the cafeteria every day and depend on the kindness of her roommate for art supplies. It wasn't even that hard of a job, either, all she pretty much had to do was make sure all the plants were tended to, orders taken care of, stuff she kind of enjoyed anyway. Not only that, but it reminded her more of home, which she liked, and she could pretend for a little while that her reality wasn't exactly what it currently was. And if she got everything taken care of and out of the way, maybe it wouldn't even be an issue if she filled the down time with sketching.

Yeah, she could definitely handle this. And if all that wasn't enough, the pure fact that it gave her another reason to not be in her Zoology class was good enough for her.

Covent Garden is open!
