Went out today and followed some peoples advice about getting a new charger for my cell phone. It only cost me $25 plus tax which is easier than a brand new phone. I think when I misplaced my charger the first thing that came into my mind is ‘crap I gotta buy a new phone now’ not even thinking that I can buy a new charger. Having thinking that first thing is a sign that maybe my subconscious is trying to tell me that I really want a new phone because the one I have is so damn old. :look: I’m not sure really. I also went off around the mall handing out resumes and felt so tired after all that walking. Some places like the Gap gave me a “screening” which threw me off guard. I didnt expect to have a little mini interview right after I gave them my application form and resume. I now know that that is to be expected in places like the Gap. I dont think they’ll call me. I seemed a little nervous when talking to the employee… :embarass:

Yay!! I think I should celebrate. I’ve hit my 20,000 hits!!! :jump:
:grin: I’m such a dork. Might blog later after work. We’re against Chicago White Sox. Go Jays!!!! 8-)
Alright so we lost… 5-3 oh well. Its better than having a tie and have to stay there until 12th inning. I also got a free bat. A Corey Koskie bat which might be worth something in the future. :smile: Only employees got the free bat. They were left over from the last give away. Tomorrow’s another game day except I have to be in early since there’s a meeting going on. Everybody has to come in. :sowhat: That means I have to leave the house by like 8 am or something. Thats it. Boring entry I know.

Today was a weird day. I didnt get enough sleep from last night so I was feeling really groggy when I was walking to work. Then I sneezed.
I had my mp3 player headphones in my ears but I still heard the ‘Bless you’ from behind me. It was this guy then I said ‘Thank you’. Then he started talking to me and next thing you know I’m talking to him about whatever. I’m not normally like that to strangers but I think it was the fact that I wasnt completely awake. He wasnt even cute. :no: I dont want to get into any details but lets just say that he was too old for me… like more than 5 years. Next thing I know he’s asking for my phone number. That freaked me out a bit since I’m not interested in him. He’s a nice guy but I know that he might be lying to me by saying that he just wants to be friends. I said I just want to be friends but I dont think he feels the same about me. I lied to him saying that I didnt have any minutes on my phone and stupid me, I still gave him my number. He asked if Im getting any minutes after I work but I said I dont know. I do have minutes so he’s probably left me a message in my voice mail already. :slant: Now I gotta deal with that. I wish I gave him the wrong number or didnt give him my number at all. Or just said that I had a bf. I’m too nice sometimes…. :weeping: I need advice on how to nicely tell him that I’m not interested.

Well days later and I didnt think that guy would call. Tonight I check my voice mail and next you I know, its him. Meh, Im not calling him back. :sowhat: He even stated his phone number which was different from the number that he had given me when I talked to him. :slant: Im not sure what thats about but whatever.
Tonight was another game except it was toonie tuesday. 500 seats are worth $2 which happens to be the nosebleed section. I had to kick out 5 people today and refuse seating to about 5 people. I thought I was assigned in 115 but it turns out it was 119. She (my supervisor) had scratched out the first number then put 119. I misread the 9 into a 5. I felt so silly because the supervisors were looking for me on their walkie talkie radio. :embarass: The weird thing is they had one of the ushers behind home plate, which is the best seats in the house and where they have the most sneak ins, to be all by himself. It’s a little dumb. Tomorrows another game but its a day game. I gotta wake up tomorrow at like 7 and leave at 8:30 am.
Nothing much to say except last night I met the ex-Chief of Police of Toronto, Julian Fantino. :smile:

Hehe. I just got my marks yesterday. Ive been waiting for them for so long now since I thought I did real bad in my sociology final for not studying. I was working the night before and felt really tired so I just read the chapters (the chapters which I photocopied). It turns out that I did real well , surprisingly… :grin: I got an A- in Java…. No more java for me!! Got an A in C/Unix programming, B+ in sociology and math. That A and B+ in sociology surprised me like I said didnt study for the sociology final and C programming is one hard course. I heard 1 person failed in Java though. He had straigt A’s in the other courses but F in Java. He was angry considering how he had an A before the final but the rule (somewhere in the java course notes) says that you have to pass the final to pass the course. I guess I did well on the final… which again surprises me since it was difficult. The thing that I’m curious about is… how i did on the final exams. I only know that in the C final exam I got a 15/16. My GPA for this first year is…. (drums… lol ) 3.24!!! :jump: I never thought I would achieve that in college/university considering how I was totally whining last year how it was so hard (I was in a different school then. Im glad I had transferred somewhere else now). I have to decided whether I want to take co-op for 2nd year or no. I think it will be more expensive and harder work. I just dont know whether I can take it or pay for it. So I need to talk to some guidance counsellor or something. :smile:
Anyway that is it and hope everybody has a great weekend.

I will never make fun of people who wear socks with their sandals or slippers. I had to do wear socks with sandals today for work. I went to work wearing sandals and a skirt today. I got my uniform and before I put them on, I realized that I totally forgot my black running shoes at home and black socks. :eek: I was panicking a bit and asked my supervisor if there’s a place where I could buy black shoes anywhere in the building. She said no. She said to ask around the locker room if anybody has extra shoes. I tried but who would bring extra shoes? Nobody had any. So I bought black socks and had to wear my sandals with it. Luckily my sandals was black. phew.. But I still looked silly through out. Most of my coworkers didnt even notice it until I told them that I had sandals on. Me with my large size top and black sandals. Talk about incomplete uniform. :embarass: I made it the whole entire baseball game without getting caught. Only 1 supervisor knew and I’m sure she didnt tell the rest or she probably thought that I got an extra pair of shoes from somebody. Thats what happens when all of a sudden I wear sandals and a skirt, I just forget the entire uniform. Tomorrow I wont forget…

Tonight was just plain weird. Too many weird and unusual things happened tonight which I will rant on about. I work on a baseball game as an usher my job is to give the fans a fun and friendly game. I’ve never had to deal with drunks or any big trouble like that until tonight. A couple was complaining to me stating that 3 guys were constantly banging on the seats next to them and everytime they did that, it would startle them especially the gf. They had asked them to not do it again but they didnt listen so they asked me if I could do something about it. So yeah. :look: I was pretty nervous on going there since I’ve never had to handle any of these situations. I told the 3 guys that a fan was complaining about their rowdy behaviour and I asked them to not bang on the seats. One of them asked ‘Why? Its just fun. Whats wrong with having fun?’ I said ‘Nothing but that doesnt mean you could ruin everyone elses fun.’ Obviously being rude asses as they are they didnt listen. One of them even said that they knew one of the supervisors but I didnt really believe him. So security was called. The fans complained to them. Then the supervisor and then 1 cop. I had to ask those same 3 guys to get off their seats and to see the supervisor at the top of the stairs. They didnt want to leave so the supervisor had to go down and ask them to go up the stairs so not to create a scene (too late! People were already being nosey and not minding their own business). So I left feeling all weird since I had to confront these guys who were basically bigger and probably older than me.
I dont know what happened to the 2 people who were complaining but the 3 guys went back to their seats a few minutes later. I guess they sorted things out. I dont ever want to have to experience that again. I wouldnt say that the 3 guys are wrong. But it was a definite avoidable situation. The 2 people didnt have to complain to me. If the 3 guys were being rowdy, how come no one else was complaining? If the 2 fans were being disturbed, they couldve asked me if they can sit somewhere else. Im just looking at the 2 sides, thats all. It was totally an unnecessary situation. Okay so thats situation #1.
Situation #2 & 3, my coworker and I were going up the stairs in the subway to go home. As we were walking, we saw this drunk guy yelling at everyone who passed by him so yeah we ran since we’ve dealt with enough drunks tonight during the game. So we continue walking and walking then we get to outside, we see this woman lying on the ground. I said to my coworker ‘Theres alot of drunks tonight’. She was just lying there. :???:
Then this man asked her, ‘Are you okay?’ She yells, ‘No! Everybody thinks Im drunk. I was running then I fell down.’ We just laughed at the situation. Yes, it’s cruel but really. Why wouldnt you try to get yourself up? Do you need someone to ask you if youre okay? Unfortunately theres not alot of kind people in the world nice enough to help you get up. I understand she was a little big but still.
Situation #4, so we were finally on the bus. Then all of a sudden the woman standing in front of me was punched by this old man. :eek: She didnt even do anything. Then he punches the woman on his other side. I was so shocked
and everyone else who saw that was shocked. Apparently, this isnt the first time he’s done this. My coworker has seen him before punching people who touches him. So everyone on the bus stayed away from him. He was also drunk and constantly talking to himself. I was so scared because he gets off at the same bus stop as me. If he punches me out, I’d kick his friggin balls. :devil:
So yeah in conclusion, alot of freaks were howling tonight. Unfortunately I had to witness them tonight. :sowhat:

I swear I thought the weirdos was just yesterday but tonight after work there was another incident. :???: Anyway my coworker and I were sitting on the subway to go home then all of a sudden this man got on the train. He had the biggest snot hanging from his nose. EW!
He was obviously crazy since he was talking to my friend, yelling at her then throwing a piece of newspaper at her which missed. Then my friend wanted to move so when she got up, he got up to leave the train but before he left, he picked up the same piece of paper he threw and threw it to me! Lol!
I was so disgusted
then after I was just laughing because of the amount of freaks we experienced tonight and last night (read previous entry). So yeah for some weird reasons these things just happen to us. It’s like theres an invisible tape saying ‘Harass all Blue Jays employees’.
Anyway something tells me the weirdos wont leave us alone tomorrow night. If I dont blog tomorrow that means there’s no incident. lol. :smile:
