Well today I again went to work.. No surprise on that one but something different happened today. It’s not big difference but you know something to blog about I suppose. I start at 10 am and as I was going to work, I notice that the store is still close. I wasnt suppose to open the store today because someone else was suppose to come in earlier and do that at 9 am. The mall opens at 10 and I get in at 10 so basically all the stores except for our store was closed. So instead of opening it, I get my breakfast. I didnt care whether I came in 5 minutes late or opened the store 5 minutes late because I feel that I really deserve breakfast, dammit! :snooty (thats my snobby look lol). Anyway this girl that was suppose to come in to open is usually late when but she was suppose to come in at 9 and its now 10.. So I knew that something is up. Then 11 am came and I had to call her. I called but no one was answering. I thought that maybe she forgot that she’s working and her and her bf went out somewhere. Then I called her again then after 5 or 6 rings she answers. She said that she’s coming soon. So 11:20 came and she arrives. I look at her and notice that she’s been crying. She didnt tell me what happened and clearly she didnt want to tell me but you know what I was a little angry. I thought that the reason is probably personal like a death of a family or something but seriously, if youre going to be over 2 hours late, call me so that I know when youre coming. She told me that she didnt get any sleep until early in the morning then hr alarm clock broke or some shit like that but I didnt buy that. The worse thing is she’s still getting paid 8 hours instead of 6!!!:angryfire That is so unfair that I wanted to tell her that you cant do that and its unfair. Remember today is a holiday for us so she gets paid even more that shes working on a holiday. I just found it so unfair thats all. Whatever her issues are I suggest forgetting about it when going to work. I was so glad of leaving that place once i was done. It’s the holiday, who works on a holiday??? Apparently, I do. :slant

Guess who’s sick for today???
uch Yours truly…:sad I dont know how I got this but I’m guessing its the weird chilly weather that we’re having here in Toronto. :slant I was basically sniffling and sneezing in class today more than usual and it was not a good thing. We ended up watching 4 short movies that were basically about Black Gays. The last one wasnt that bad for they were showing their butts and what not. :winktongue Also I had to go to the library and borrow a video for the last essay which is this foreign movie called Jules et Jim. It’s another black and white and found out that its about this love triangle. It even has the word menage a trois in the back cover so I hope this video is interesting…:hyper
Nothing much is going on except for the fact that I look forward to Thursdays, Saturdays and Tuesdays. Why? Thats when they show Big Brother!!! I’m a dork I know but there’s nothing else to watch alright? :rosiecheeks I do hope that Scott gets the boot tonight. :smile

Well anyway, theres this guy at the same mall that i work in.. No he’s not hot! :lol2 But whenever I look up, I always catch him staring at me…:irked At first I didnt really notice it then I didnt mind it but tonight was the night where I realized that this guy has a thing for me. I think. I find this very creepy also but whatever. He talks to me about work and how its so dead around the mall. Just tonight when I was leaving to lock up the store he comes up to me and says where I’m going. I said, “home.” He looks up at his watch and says its too early. I didnt really say anything back then he continues his little small talks which I didnt really pay any attention to. Thankfully he’s not working tomorrow. :look
Other than that creepy dude, I have uploaded some new photos of my flowers in the photos section. I also posted some black and white ones. If you do want to view them, your computer has to be fast because these photos are fairly huge!! Here’s a few below:

Thanks for all the comments about the guy who had a crush on me… It’s nice to be looked at once in a while but i dont like it when guys over do it. Anyway, he’s not my type and I dont really want a bf right now. :rude So nothing much is going on except for this week is the last week of summer school then next week is the exams.. :irked I’m not looking forward for that one but I am looking forward through Thursday. I think i might bring my digital cam for there are loads of flowers that I have been wanting to take pictures of… :sly Thank you also for the comments on the photos and for those who would want to use them for internet purposes, please ask first and let me know which ones you want to use and what youre going to do with it. If its just for wallpaper on you computer then feel free. I dont know why you would want to use them theyre not great anyway. :rosiecheeks
Thats all to blog right now. Nothing interesting at all. :smile

I just finished my essay on the comparison between classical Hollywood cinema vs the art cinema. Art cinema meaning movies that are made in Europe. The one I saw was fairly good yet depressing. 2 of the main characters die… :confused Anyway I am fairly happy because I had started at 2 pm instead of 1 for I was interrupted with babysitting my little sister. It did went up to 8 pages unlike last time when it was only 7 1/4 pages instead of 8. I dont think I will do well in this last essay. I’m guessing around 60 percent for I am not very good with writing essays.. Hence the horrible grammar that you see in my entries. :rosiecheeks So tomorrow is that last day of summer school then off to exams on Thursday of next week. I have yet to write down and read all the articles that are in the course reader… Blah.. These articles are so long and boring though…. makes me wanna fall asleep…:sleep lol Anyway tomorrow I also plan on bringing my camera and taking pics of the flowers in school. I hope it doesnt rain…. Then this weekend another fun time at work. :bored Not only do I NOT get a weekend I also work 4 day straight!!! :angryfire I’m going to be so tired then I wont be able to do any studying. :headache Please pray for me. :innocent

Has any domain owners ever experience this with their websites? I was uploading the 404.shtml to my hostees tonight and when i get to this one hostee, i refreshed after uploading then I noticed that all her files just deleted. :yikes I was so shocked for i never tried deleting anything just uploading a single file. Then I tried refreshing again then a folder was deleted. Then I went to check everything in my cpanel and her files and folder was deleted. Grant you I dont have any backups on my files. I only backup the mysql data. Grr…:irked Now after this situation I’m going to back up everything!!! Another thing is I logged in again and went to her account then I saw another folder was deleted! Now I’m too scared to log in for more of her stuff might be deleted again. The weird thing is its just her account…. It didnt happen to my files or my other hostees.. Not that I know of anyway…:slant
Besides that today was the last day of class. I was happy and thank god.. No more watching boring movies. I also forgot to bring my camera to school. Dumbass..:sowhat So i didnt get a chance to take pics of the flowers… I do hope that on Thursday I’ll get to do that… And I’ll even write a note on bringing it…:winktongue

Right so it turns out that my appeal to get more $$ from the govt for my school tuition has been denied…:nervous I just got the documents that I sent them on Thursday. The school replied stating that the reasons that I have provided for wanting more $$ is not suitable for the ones that they wanted… Right so if I wanted to get more dough I would have to send reasonable reasons such as loss of employment, death etc. So basically the fact that my mom wasnt working half of the 2004 year (she just had a baby last year) is not a valid reason?!:angryfire Stupid moron of a government. With that in mind there is a maybe 80% chance that I wont be able to go to college in around 3 weeks that school is staring. Oh yeah, I already paid the school $1000 (from my own bank account) as a part of the minimum payment so my place in school is secured. If I dont pay the rest by the end of the month, they kick me out. I cant refund the 1 grand even if I wanted to..:weeping
There are 3 options to this:
1) Use my student line of credit.
Consequences: I would be in debt of 8 grand to the bank and get charge of a massive amount of interest, which is way more if I had to use the govt $$ that I need
2) Use my parents line of credit.
Consequence: I dont want to do that for I did that last year and I havent owed them the full payment. I have owed them a few somes of $$ but not enough to have it fully covered.
3) Get a fucking full time job or 2 part time jobs. Then go back to school.
Consequence: College drop out…. How nice is that. :irked
Thats about it. Life sucks ass… :pissed

So today was my last day of summer school. Today was my exam and I am sure that I failed it. I would be surprised if I ended up getting over 50% as my final grade. I didnt really study last night because I had alot of things in my mind including my college situation… Anyway, I am glad that today is over then I can go on my 2 week vacation!!! lol :lol2 I did bring my digital camera though and decided to take some pictures of the school buildings which is definitely a must-see. I had wanted to talk some pictures of the flowers in the campus but I wasnt in the mood of taking pics of pretty things. I did take a few only. Most of the pics are the colleges in my school.
That’s about it right now. Maybe I will blog in the weekend.. Most likely I will. :smile

Guess what?! :jump I just got a raise from work today. I dont know how much it is and I should find out by tomorrow how much it is. All I know is that its more than 0.16 cents lol. :lol2 Well it might not be alot to others but right now its good enough considering how I am in a huge debt to the govt, bank and my parents. And yes, I am going to school for my parents have contribute to some of my tuition. I did pay most of it thanks to my credit line. I didnt want to have to come to that but I didnt have any choice for I have already made a down payment of $1000. :sowhat The raise will be effective by the beginning of September which I cannot wait to see. I wont be working as much also since school is starting on the 7th… which I’m not looking forward to…
Another good news also, the school granted my transfer credits so that means less subjects to take this year. :sly
Thats it and I am off to bed. :sleep

Today I was suppose to go to Rye and pay the rest of my minimum payment so that I could get my schedule for Sept. 7. My mom suggested that I go tomorrow instead. :smile Thats cool with me then after I pay, I go to UT to sell 2 of my books from first year. I do hope that I get over $50 for both books. I know that I’ll probably get ripped off but oh well. Right now I’ll do anything for cash. :sly
Hmm.. I just read an email that I received from a friend of mine concerning her 20th birthday.. She’s having it downtown in this club… Ermm.. I politely declined.. I think it’ll be a while for me to go clubbing these days.. Maybe in a year people can invite me again and I’ll say yes. :look I did have a bad experience concerning clubbing and I’m sort of not over it…. Yes, I should have fun and what not but thats what I thought before “that” incident happened and look where it got me??? Anyway, if youre curious on what really happened, feel free to look at the archives.. I wont tell you the date though… :rude
Did I tell you that Resident Evil 2 is coming out at the same day as my birthday??? I wont tell you my bday…:rosiecheeks I think you should find out when RE 2 is coming out instead! lol :winktongue So yeah, even though its a damn school day, I would love to spend my birthday watching that movie. It’s shot in Toronto which is where I’m from and my favourite model is practically the main character. I also remember getting scared watching my brother play the first game, which was so freaking hard…:sowhat He never did beat the game…:no.
