Alright so unlike regular cellphone users out there, I dont turn on my cellphone all the time. It could be off for weeks (unintentionally) and there would be messages there waiting for me. I would check them like weeks later. Yes, I’m a bad cellphone user. I’m probably one of those people who shouldnt have a cellphone. So the same thing happened this time. I just turned on my cellphone after a long time of being off. Theres 4 voice mail! :eek: I check the first one and its from work. The voicemail was sent on Friday November 25 and today is December 2.. It’s a message stating they need me to work at another location if I can on November 25.. Of course since I didnt listen to the message until now, I couldnt call them back in regards to whether I can work or no… This is where I worry a bit.. Because I worry too easily. Am I going to get into trouble when I come in to work tomorow? Hmm I dont even know..

On the happier note, I got 44 out of 50 on my Algebra test. I’m so damn happy about that. That’s 88% :grin: . I’m so proud of myself since the class average was 44%. Then on the other side of the spectrum… Today is the last day of school before exams.. Monday is my first exam.. I’m so scared since there’s so many definitions that I have to study. I really hope my boss doesnt schedule me this Sunday. I will not be a happy camper.. :irked:

Went to work today and was doing stock work. I’m pretty happy about that. I didnt feel like selling at all. :irked: Then later on during cleaning, one of the seasonal people said that she wants to quit badly. I feel the same way but I figured I wanna stay for Christmas since I really really need the money. I figured the manager wont want to keep me anyway since selling is not exactly my expertise… :no: The seasonal girl feels that there’s so much pressure put upon us. I definitely agree with her. All they care about at work is sell, sell, sell. That’s it. She also made a point that she’d rather work in a grocery store since they get more hours than us. Plus you dont really have to sell in that kind of environment. Another point that she stated is the fact that other people steal your customers which doesnt help you achieve your quota for the day… So retail is not my thing.. I hope I can get another job by next year.

Right I didnt think I would have to go to school tomorrow since I wanted to study for algebra.. :read: But since there’s a chapter that I totally do not get.. I have no choice because I know for a fact that he will put a lot of questions based on that chapter. The exact same thing happened in the second midterm, he gave us a hint that there will be alot of chapter 3 section 5 and that chapter wasnt covered in the lab so obviously people wouldnt study it. So I studied it like theres no tomorrow and as expected 80% of the questions in the midterm was from 3.5.. Thus the class average was 44%… That’s a fail.. And because I studied like there’s no tomorrow, I got 88%. ;P I’m so happy about that.. Now this final.. Will be the worst of all since the chapter that he did during the last week of school is so damn confusing and useless.. Example in Finite Field = 2, 1+1 = 0 therefore 1 = -1.. Dont ask. I just wanted to show why this last bit he taught may screwup my belief system that 1+1 =2 not 0… :???: But whatever, I’ll try my damndest dammit!!! I can’t wait for this Thursday since thats my last exam for this semester then I get to rest..

So my mom put up the Xmas tree in the living room. The theme was going to be blue but blue and dark green (color of the tree) doesnt really match. I think if the tree was white then blue would go with it. So she returned it and bought a gold version. She already had silver decorations and now she has gold to go with it. So the theme this year is silver and gold. I was sitting in front of the tree just admiring the colorful lights and the shiny balls then I look closer and what do I see.. Paperclips! She used paperclips to attach the silver and gold balls in the tree. It is so ghetto! I had to laugh.. It’s like everytime I look at the tree all I see is the paperclips! I havent had a chance to take photos of it. Maybe when no ones around I will… One more exam to go which I know I’m going to fail it.. I hate digital circuits… :banghead:

So there’s a friendly neighbor guy thats been snow blowing people’s driveways. It snowed heavily last night and today he just took his snow blower and noticed that the house in front of us hasnt shovelled so he went over and started snow blowing the house. It’s not even his house yet he was so nice and did it anyway. :grin: Right next door was a person shovelling.. After the friendly neighbour guy did the house, he went right over to help the person shovelling.. That is pretty awesome. I dont know if he does this every winter since we just moved in the neighbourhood this year but if we were still living in our old neighbourhood, nobody would snow blow/shover your snow.. Ever! :rude: That was very nice of him though. I thought that maybe he just liked using his snow blower. It wasnt cold outside so people couldve just shovelled easily. The first house he did, the engine of the car on the driveway was constantly running since 8:30 am up to around 12 pm. Again since he’s a nice guy and everything, he knocked on the door and checked if the owner of the car knew that his car engine was running. No answer. The second time he did, he noticed that the car was open. A normal person wouldve stolen the car right there but he didnt. He just turned it off. Imagine a car engine on that entire time.. Thats like endagering the environment!!! :no: Then he knocked again and noticed that the door wasnt locked, he went in and saw that the guy was lying down and he was piss ass drunk!! Crazy.. Again very nice gentleman.. My parents even joked how they should talk to him and ask him to shovel the snow on our driveway next time theres a snow storm.

So last night I went out with my highschool girlfriends who I dont see often because of school. We are busy girls and it’s tough when you dont see them all the time like you used to. Had dinner.. We did wanted to do something after but there was nothing in the area. :slant: We’re also planning another outting before school starts but not to be pessimistic and all but I doubt it’ll happen. Planning last night was already hard enough… I will post photos maybe later on.. But you know me, it takes me months to update the gallery even though I have loads of photos lying around in my hard drive.

So apparently the school had accidentally posted the final marks before the official release date 2 nights ago. It was online for 40 minutes then took it down since it wasnt the official date. I didnt know about this but one of my friends buddies just happened to go online and saw that her marks were posted…. :weeping: Too bad I didnt know of this earlier.. Not that I wanted my marks before Xmas but I just wanted to know if I passed my communication class… I know that will hurt my GPA like there is no tomorrow

I wouldve blogged this yesterday but I didnt have the time plus I was feeling lazy. :embarass: Right so yesterday I went to work and didnt know that I was working with this girl who happens to “steal” your customers. For example, I would help a customer and go and get something for him/her and then seconds later she would end up helping them. The worst part is I know that she’s not the only one that steals customers. It’s so damn easy thats why people do it. You can just put your id number after asking them who helped them out. Nobody will know except you and the customer wouldnt care anyway. :irked: So my goal for the night was $680. The most I’ve gotten was around $1000 and didnt even come close to making that goal. Two days ago my goal was around $600 and only made $400 considering how my shift was only 4 hours (shitty I know). So yeah I didnt think I made my $680 goal last night… I dont like to be aggressive towards the customers and I really dont like sucking up to them. It was pretty busy from what I think anyway but people that have been working there longer than me obviously think otherwise. So I helped out a few people did a alot of exchanges and refunds and always asking the same girl on how to do it. But finally I got the hang of it. :smile: Then at the end of the night it turns out that I made $880!!!!!! :jump: I was so shocked because not only did I make $680 but obviously over $200!!! :eek: Because I’m so pessimistic sometimes I dont think I’ll make my goal again. I think I was just lucky… The girl didnt even make her goal. Hers was around $800 and she had only made $600…. The opposite went her way I guess… That totally made me feel better I needed to step it up to the plate and show my boss that I can do sales. I can make my goal even though its just one night. I needed this because apparently last week I had only made -40% of my goal whatever that means. Either way the negative part says it all… I didnt even come close to making it.. So yeah I hope my boss sees me as a different sales person now not somebody who cant sell anything and who just does nothing… :grin:

I just want to wish everyone a very very Merry Xmas!!! Last night was great not because of the presents but because I got to see my final marks. I didnt do as bad as I had expected but I’m a bit sad about my math marks. I know 100% that before coming to that algebra exam, I was getting around an A. Since the exam was so damn hard, it fell. So I ended up with a B+ at the end. A bit disappointing but I’m sure I’ll get over it. Then the one of the stupidiest class was my best mark, an A. I didnt expect that at all. :???: Basically my marks are in order:
Communication B-
Digital Circuits B
Algebra B+
C Programming A-
Smalltalk A

Which at the end is a 3.33 GPA for the Fall 2005 and overall since first year 3.2 -ish. Best Christmas gift ever is the fact that I still have the marks to go into co-op (and the fact that I earned those marks.. except for algebra.. :sowhat: ). I’m so excited… All I have to do now is fix this website which I plan on putting in the resume that I do own a personal webpage and the actual resume.

New layout!!!! I decided to finally create a new one for the 2006. I’ll be busy once school starts so yeah. I figured I might just make a new layout once every year since I’m always busy on creating new ones every month. Creating a layout is not easy. It takes days. Ideas.. Photos to use.. Editing of images (once you’ve found one).. Coding and making it work in various browsers (Opera, IE and Firefox only.. Sorry for the ones excluded I know there are tons out there :ashamed: ). I went with the traditional white, black and various gray tones only because I was inspired by this scan from bwgreyscale. So I had to use the scans. I didnt find others that I had wanted. This one just sticks out of the bunch of scans they post in their forums.

Right so today I got sick. Actually it started last night, I didnt want to work today since I thought I would pass out or something but I had to. At least it was a morning shift not a closing one. I wouldve died then. I didnt think the 40% off sale would continue but it did. It was also very busy. This kinda makes me think that I should buy some items for me while I am still working for the company. Since the Xmas season is almost over, I’ll be out of a job soon.. I know theyre not going to want me back… Meh.. I really want to go shopping besides the mall that I’m working in. It’s so boring. I need a change of scenery.. ;P
