AA

Current Mood:

Alright so is today Canada day? Hmm I think it is. I wont be doing anything special except for the fact that I’m working. :weeping: I guess it’s my fault since I signed up for it. It’s not for a baseball game though it’s for this Alcoholics Anonymous convention that they are having in Rogers Center. :lol: I hope they’re not serving beer! Oh well at least (I hope) there wont be any drunks to deal with. I’m working as a security not an usher. They would probably put me in a crappy place where there’s nobody since I’m not really trained as a security. Oh well anything for a little extra $ for school. :shy: You know what I dont like, when people tell time in military hours. Who says 17:00 hours?! Like really? That just confuses me. At first I thought that was 4 pm then when I counted, it’s actually 5 pm. :irked: It’s like everytime I see something like that I’m forced to use my math skills.. Hmm.. 17:00 hours… Subtract 17 from 12 so thats 5.. Yes 5 pm… :embarass: Stupid time.

I just wanted to plug a friend. Jean finally has her domain up and running so please click here.

No Break

Current Mood:

Alright so last night was so damn boring. They had assigned me in floor seats so I thought I would be where people sit but no. The supervisor placed me backstage right next to the washroom and garbage. I had to make sure that nobody goes past the washroom. :slant: I saw the long line ups and had to deal with people getting lost and what not. So I stood there bored. I was backstage like I said so I couldnt watch the event. Nothing! I did watch a few times when there was nobody in the area. The good thing about yesterday is that I get paid extra since it was a holiday. I was suppose to come today to work again but I didnt want to after last night. I was so damn tired. When the event finished, I wasnt allowed to leave right away. :mad: I was tired of standing and doing nothing. This is why I could never be a security. The worst part is the fact that I didnt get a damn break! Nobody in the area got a break! Stupid mofos. :irked: So yeah, thats why I didnt go back today. I’ll start working in Tuesday when baseball comes back in town.

Anyway today since I skipped work, I went to Woodbine Horse Race Track place with the family. Got to see the horses race their life away. Then after that I went to the slots place but guess what happened?! The guy asked for my ID before I entered the damn place. :slant: I told him ‘I guess I’ll take that as a compliment’ and he says ‘Alot of people dont take it like that’. He was even comparing my face to the ID. Do I look like a person who would have a fake ID? I gave him a driver’s license so the ID is legit. Plus I look really bad on it so I felt uneasy him comparing my face to the ID. Then he swipes it and the machine said ‘Valid’. So yeah whatever. I got in but I’m not really a slot person so I didnt do much but look around the place. Most of gamblers are like old folks like 40+. Then I just exited the place. Not much of a gambler.

Had to Lie

Current Mood:

Getting back at work, I was asked what happened to me on Saturday because I didnt show up at work without calling or anything. So I lied straight out and said that I had a stomach flu. I’ve never had a stomach flu in my life or any flu. :no: I’m sorry that I didnt call. I didnt even know the phone number to call. My supervisor (not the same one on Saturday) didnt even know the phone number to call if you want day off. I know that it’s not the same phone number when calling if I was working for Blue Jays. Oh well. I felt real bad lying since I hate dishonesty but thats all I can do. She didnt seem upset though after all it wasnt for a baseball game but a convention.

The game went up to 11th inning and yet we lost. :slant: I was not at all happy when they tied to 7 and when Oakland scored we lost. Bleh. I didnt care as long as I get to go home. I did not want to stay until 2 am there or later. I also got 2 free tickets for next week which I might give off to my friends. :smile:

Poker

Current Mood:

So I played Poker for the first time tonight during my friends birthday party. I usually watch the game in tv (World Poker Tournament) and it is really interesting. Anyway knowing how I’ve never played with people, I knew I would suck and yes I did. :???: Then it came down to 3 people including me and when everyone got tired of playing they all decided to bet everything in. And guess who won?! ME!!!!! :excited: I didnt know even know that I won but they showed me that I got a flush so yay!!!! I beat those who had more chips than me. Now I want to play some more. I’m really bad at bluffing though. I cant bluff for crap plus I’m scared to bid too high. Whenever I have good cards, I dont bid too high. :irked: There goes my strategy. Thats all my blog right now. I guess. :smile:

Blah.

For fanlisting owners, have you ever asked an owner to another fanlisting and thought that they were somehow related but actually they dont? It happened to me a few minutes ago… :embarass: Oh well…

Tomorrow’s my sister 2nd birthday but we’re celebrating it today. I do plan on uploading all photos soon including the past photos that I had to remove. I’ve been too lazy to put them up but since I now know how to do a batch upload in 4images, it should be in no time.

Nothing much is going on except for work. Something tells me I’m suppose to get a letter from school in regards to tuition and stuff. I havent gotten any at all. Not that I’m looking forward to school but I dont want to be charged extra late fees for not paying the damn tuition early. :no:

Anyway that is it.. I might post the photos tomorrow or something.

James Marsters in TO

Current Mood:

You know what sucks. James Marsters of Buffy will be coming in Toronto for the SFC in the Metro Toronto Convention center which happens to be like less than a minute away from my work. Being a Buffy fan, I really wanted to go and see him and maybe get his autograph and maybe take his photos or something. Then I check Ticketmaster and see the bloody price is $200. :yikes: I cant afford that. The event starts at 10 am and I have to be at work at 2 pm but how do I know that there wont be a long ass line up if I leave my house at 8 am. I know that there will be loads of Spike fans who will be coming. Plus $200! I dont know. I can only cry and hope that he’ll be there to watch the Baseball game but I highly doubt that. The Sunday event with him is cheaper though but not as much events. Then again, I have work. :weeping:

Another runner

Current Mood:

Alright so some dumbass managed to jumped to the field during the baseball game tonight. It was shocking at first since I havent seen it for such a long time (since the first ever Blue Jays game versus the Boston Red Sox). The runner seems pretty happy that he ran off. I was pretty angry since it just takes them so long to catch the dude and we already had an extra inning. Run on the field, $1000 off your account! Yep! Thats the fine for running in the field. :yikes: Anyway the fact that we wont was a total fluke! I’m just glad we wont 3-2. Close game indeed.

I think that I’ve managed to scare off another guy. :weeping: Embarassing I know. I smile to this real cute beer guy and next thing I know, he wont even look at me in the eye. :embarass: Meh I tend to do that with my lack of “beauty”.

The Unfortunate.

Current Mood:

I just heard that one of my previous Professors from my university committed suicide in June. I didnt even know of this until tonight when a friend told me. This is a total shock since he didnt seem like the suicidal type. He taught Physics and you can even read my rant about that class when I took it in here (Scroll down to Sept. 30). I guess something must have happened that had made him snap and be all depressed.

That’s it.. for now..
