Current Mood: Depressed

With this crappy economy, I’m sitting here just surfing the net, fixing my many websites, occasionally checking out the university’s career website and may be working on my part -time web development job. Please Mr. Prime Minister and Mr. Obama fix this economy asap. Many recent graduates are struggling for new jobs. If you are a corporate company, dont just hire “senior” type folks. We “entry-level” folks need jobs too. Thank you for reading.

This is probably a bad way to start the July but I’m really having a shit day so far… Had a bad day at work with a shitty boss. Also found out some horrible news from a guy I know. Ex-friend I could call him. It’s like… As if the day couldnt get any worse. My coworker had a meeting today with 3 other coworkers and my boss. After the meeting, he said that the boss talked alot about me. He said something that the boss will be giving me more work… :banghead: Great.. As if I could handle more pile of work right now. I dont know if I’m being slow with these forms but it’s really annoying how she would talk about me without me being there. I have to know the exact details of what she said which is partly the reason why I am not looking forward to working tomorrow even though it’s a Friday. But I am expecting the worst. So then this friend had to tell me that I’m not the person he’s looking for. I guess he wants a dumbass because he should like me since I’m smart and also good at computers. I really could careless anymore… I just wanna start going back to the routine of working for the Jays. I may be tired when I work there but I at least dont have these stupid problems…

:jump: I finally found a job for the summer! A full – time job! I’m so psyched. Reading that subject line ‘Congratulations’ in the email totally made my day and week! Anything that could possibly ruin my mood, I am totally going to avoid. Even the constant snow storms that we’re always having is not changing my cheery mood. It’s a web programmer job which is something I was looking for. This was the job interview that I was talking about in my last post. I guess the online test did do me some justice because it earned me a job. It doesnt pay as much as the job I had last year but I wasnt even looking for a job that paid high. I just wanted a job that uses the ’stuff’ that I learned in school and I found that and got it! :embarass: Here I was planning my summer doing summer courses and now I guess I can’t do that anymore. As much as I still want to go to summer school to get rid of some courses, I think I can’t do that anymore. I just dont have the time… :slant:

Current Mood: Okay

Ah just when I thought this year’s V day could be better, I was mistaken. It was just like my any other V day. Boring and depressing. Ah well… I did buy some chocolates that went on sale the day after the V day. I promised myself that I would not over eat them because I’ve been trying to lose weight ever since the New Year. That’s so typical.. I know.. But I dont want to get all depressed because I gained so much weight already.

So next week, I have a week off from school. I dont have much planned. It’s probably going to be mostly snowing since the snow never seems to end in Toronto. We have snow for a day or two then it stops then a week later theres a new batch of snow. Frankly, I hate the winter. The snow just ruins my day and it’s too depressing. I’m definitely ready for the spring and baseball season. :D

Current Mood: Okay

As expected I did horrible on AI. I really wanted to at least get a C on this but I didnt. Ugh. I did pass though so that’s good.. I suppose.. But on a lighter note, I got an A on my introduction to database. I was surprised about that. I didnt expect to get a good mark since I did poorly on the midterm. But I guess the main project and final boosted up the mark hence an A. :jump: I’m satisfied with my mark despite the AI mark. It’s my lowest thus far. I dont think I will be posting it when I send out my resumes when I apply for the upcoming internship in the summer.

I still havent finished my Xmas shopping. I have my sister, mother and friend that I got for Secret santa left. I already know what to get her so it should be okay. Anywho, I was watching this tv show and it was about hating Toronto. In fact the title of the show was ‘Let’s hate Toronto’. I honestly did not know the rest of Canada hated us. I know that we’re not that nice. Believe me, I know how rude Torontonians are… Every person that’s not from Toronto that I’ve asked what they think of us. Rude is one of them. The first time I heard that I was offended but since I hear it more now, I dont mind it. I agree. We are rude. It’s not something to be proud of but it’s the truth. It doesnt really surprise me… :slant:

So I went salsa dancing for the first time last night. It was my friends 23rd birthday and she took us to a salsa club. I dont know how to salsa so I felt completely out of place. Like I didnt belong in here. It was really hot and tight since everyone was dancing. Guys in these clubs would just ask you to dance and they would not care if you dont know how to dance. 2 guys had asked me and each I told them that I dont know how to dance but they didnt mind and wanted to dance anyway. I guess all I had to do was shake my ass then that would be considered as salsa dancing! lol The first guy was an energizer bunny and didnt seem to be tired after 5 songs. I got tired quick and didnt know how to tell him that I needed to rest. Then after that my friend and I sat down and rested since it was too tight. We both ended up chatting with a guy.
So that was my Saturday. The good news is I bought Sex and the City dvd’s for $20 each. I got seasons 3, 4, and 6 part 2. I already have 5 and 6 part 1. I have only season 2 left to get. ;P

Ugh I’m probably gonna get some lecture tomorrow from work or something. Just because today I was feeling lazy.. Just because I (kinda) didnt do my job properly today.. I wont get fired though. I havent actually heard them fire anyone for what I did. So I didnt check the fans if they were ok from the foul ball. So I didnt clear the people out and told them to stay behind the yellow line. Go ahead and complain. Bleh. We went an extra inning. I was getting tired ok? :slant: Horrible excuse I know. But really what is 1 out of 81 games of NOT doing your job going to do. It’s worse if it becomes a habit which I wont let it happen. I just hope that I wont be in the same section tomorrow as the people will be giving me a dirty look coz I wont be doing a good job just like today.

It’s funny how some guys just keep coming back to me (except for one). They dump me for someone better then a few weeks/months later, they always end up coming back. I dont want to sound cocky and all but it’s true. This particular guy ditched me coz I lived far away from him as oppose to the girl he met who lived in his area. Now it turns out he dumped her coz she got all paranoid. Now he’s come crawling back to me asking me if we can talk in msn again. :irked: Ha! He wishes. There was a reason I deleted him off there because he ditched me and thank God I havent added him since. I dont want to be anyone’s second prize. Nor do I want to be anyone’s rebound girl. I dont need that bullshit. :mad:

Thank goodness I’m off tomorrow from work. This whole DST is making me so tired this past week. Im still not used to going back to my routine at sleeping 11 pm but rather sleeping at 12 am. So I end up so tired the next day that I have to drink something that’ll wake me up (coffee ugh). I dont drink coffee. It makes my teeth yellow so I should force myself to sleep as early as I can starting next week so I dont have to drink that stuff anymore.

Finally I signed up to Flickr and uploaded my photos. I had to remove my gallery in here as they were taking up alot of space plus the spam was going overbearing. You can view my photos there. I’m not a professional photographer but I do like taking pics of objects & places. But I hate taking photos of myself. Flickr has this really cool thing where the thumbnails that is generated from your photograph is so clear and sharp but when you see the actual photo, it’s not so clear… I honestly do not have the time to ‘photoshop’ every single photo that I’ve taken so you’ll see that while the thumbnail is so sharp and clear, the actual image is not so sharp and clear.

So the trip to the zoo this Saturday is cancelled. I’m disappointed as I have never been to the Toronto Zoo. A bit pricey for just 1 day but it’s not like I go to the zoo ever.

Also just a little fyi, if I ever had to pick one food to eat in a year, it would be sushi. Any type of sushi minus the wasabi.

Finally took my citizenship test today at 10 45… Before the actual test, the instructors had to talk about procedures and what not. It took so long.. After long hours of studying, I wished I did the test as soon as I sat down but no they had to chit chat and inform us about instructions. It was really annoying. My friend told me that when he took his citizenship test, they told him whether he passed/failed as soon as he handed in the test. But in this case, they didnt. As soon as we finished the test, we handed it in without knowing whether we failed or passed. It doesnt matter really because I dont think I failed.. I’m just glad that I finally got this citizenship thing done and over with. On the other hand, my mom does not think she did so well. We will have to see I guess..

The one thing that I hate about this holiday is the fact that I lose so much money. The spending and buying presents is getting to me. I’m so running low on cash it’s getting so ridiculous.. I wish I dont have to buy anything but I dunno…. I hate shopping for someone else because I dont know what they really want. I dont know if they’ll like it… :slant:

Alright so I just recently found out how to set the timer in the vcr. We’ve had this vcr for maybe 4 years or more and I just found out how to set the timer. Sad I know. But yeah so I have become this crazy 90210 addict since I use to watch it during the summer. Since I have to work, I just set the timer and watch it when I get home. I am too obsessed with that show. If Mr. Spelling had released the dvds, I never would have to work this hard to tape the show every day. Think of how much $$ he would gain if he had released Melrose Place and 90210 in DVD. Too bad… Yes I know the first season is out on Amazon but really, I dont wanna have to buy each season separately. I want the Box set.

Speaking of which I’m still waiting for my Sex and the City Season 6 part 1 dvd through ebay. I also a webcam with a mic since I was all depressed a few days ago. All and all, it was because someone had recently betrayed me. If there’s one thing I hate the most, it’s lying. I hate being lied to. I consider myself a very outspoken person to some people. I’m also being honest. So I say what’s on my mind. If I dont want to date a guy, I’ll tell him. But this guy was just a jerk. He lied to me and I was not happy with it. Thats basically the jist of what the entry below is about. :slant:

Last night was the first that I’ve had to stop a fight at work. I’ve never had to do that last year so this time was a first. As much as I tried to be tough and pretend that I knew what I was doing, clearly I was thinking (and hoping) that none of them punch me out. They didnt physically touch each other but they were arguing and cussing at each other that they wouldve started fighting in seconds. Then some guy (not a part of either party) stood up and tried to stop one of the guys. That didnt help since I wanted him to sit down. There’s a game going on and people are trying to watch but there’s a stupid fight about to happen. The security came and their own solution was to sit the guy down 2 rows back but I didnt want that since they can still argue at each other. I wanted him ejected. Luckily the cop who was there sitting got up from her seat and took the guy away. I dont know if he was ejected or not. Either way I dont want a fight, not in my section anyway. The whole situation was clearly ridiculous so I wont even blog about it here. I was just thankful that the lady cop came to the rescue. At the same time, I did feel sorry for the guy because he didnt seem like the a**hole type of guy. Sure he had his piercings but he seemed pretty nice compared to the people he was arguing against. Both parties were drunk so I guess alcohol played a role in the situation.

If you’re the rebound guy/girl (and you know it) and you want to make the perfect rebound date so that the person ends up having a good time, here are some tips..
1. Go to dinner. Maybe some italian restaurant. But do not complain about how crappy their food. Yes you asked for medium rare but it came out rare.. Just complain once and thats it. No more than 2 times. If you do, you might as well ask them to recook it.. :slant:
2. Go to the movies. Plain and simple.
3. Stay over at the person’s house or vice versa. Does not necessarily mean you’ll get some but just sleep over.
4. Wake up early enough so that you can cook them breakfast if they stayed at your house.

Yesterday was the first time someone has ever cooked me breakfast. It was really sweet since he didnt have to do that but he did. It was the traditional eggs, bacon, toast and hot chocolate. But throughout the entire time, I realized that we were just better off as friends. There was no connection whatsoever. There was no flirting (which is why I said ‘does not necessarily mean you’ll get some’). I’m glad he felt the same way about him though. But he did go all out. He paid for dinner, movie and he made me breakfast. Not to mention the fact that he bought my favourite pie and liquor (which I didnt end up eating/drinking since I was really full). He must’ve spend over $100+ just for me… But it just wasnt a success.. I’m glad he feels the same way as me. We are just better off as friends.. It just didnt work out… :flow:

Just when I thought August would be a new month and all since July was such a bust something like this has to happen. I went out with a guy last month and I thought he didnt want anything to do with me since he was avoiding me happened to message me on msn last night. The funny thing is I was talking about him to my friend. Speak of the devil and he shall appear.. :devil: I was really caught off guard since he hasnt tried to contact me for like 2 and 1/2 weeks now.. Then he acts like he did nothing wrong. I didnt talk to him long since he didnt deserve it. I dont buy the excuse ‘I had to take off’. Whatever the hell that means I dont know… :irked: But really if he wants to be on my good side (again?) he will have to work for it. I’m not just gonna forgive him for the crap you pulled on me.

I hate alot of things in life.. Call me pessimistic but yeah.. One of them is calling people.. I dont mind talking on the phone. I talk on the hours if I feel like it but the person would have to call me. I hate calling people. I wont call people unless its for business purposes or if the person is special..

Right so to put it on the table, I decided to call this guy and everytime I do, he tells me a few seconds later that he’ll call me back. Thinking he’ll call me in a few minutes or hours, he doesnt. Then he calls me the next day (usually at a bad time) so we end up only talking for a few seconds and he says again that he’ll call me back. Then he doesnt.. So I just turned off my cell since I’m sick and tired of this so called phone games. Dont tell me that you’ll call me back when you wont. If I’ve called you at the wrong time, just say that you cant talk right now and to call back later. Dont try to be all polite and say that you’ll call back when you wont. I hate that. :mad: Drives me crazy that you’re trying to be all nice about it when before this person was complaining that I never call. So when I did, he blows me off and says that he’ll call me back which he doesnt..

This is why I dont call people…

Argh.. This homestand never ends.. I didnt think working 11 days straight would be so bad but it is… I’m exhausted everyday.. Almost everyday is a damn routine.. It’s like it never changes.. Yesterday I thought it was the weekend already.. It wasnt even Friday yet! :sad: The weather isnt helping either.. It’s so bloody hot.. Even if its 26 degrees Celsius.. It’s like I’m gonna melt any minute now.. :mad:

With the heat this weekend and my lack of energy, dealing with drunk Americans & Yankee fans will not be a treat… Some of them just complain and complain why we do this and not in the Yankee stadium.. Do I really care? Are we in NY? No.. We are in Toronto so you gotta follow the stadium rules here otherwise you’ll get clocked in the head with a ball.. :banghead:

So I finally saw Pirates of the Caribbean yesterday. It was good. Not as funny as the first one though. And I’ve come to a conclusion that Keira and Orlando are not as great a couple in the movie. Mr. Depp and Keira look so much cuter. I thought the movie was alright.. Maybe it was because I was tired and I wanted to sleep.. :ashamed: Now I gotta watch the third installment to see what happens..

I was suppose to go out yesterday with this guy but it never happened. The jerk stood me up. That’s not even the worst part. He’s done this 3 times now. :ashamed: I forgave him before because I wanted it to work. I liked him. But he didnt like me back as much as I liked him. If you like someone at least be a little considerate and not forget about the date and dont oversleep. Yes that was his reason, he overslept (again.. ). Stupid excuse! So when he phoned me, I just told him that I didnt want to go out. In the previous two experience, I just didnt return his phone calls but this time, I just talked to him and told him that I dont want to go out (ever with him). My friend said that he had asked me the wrong thing. Instead of asking me of a coffee after standing me up, he should’ve asked me to get some ice cream because all girls love ice cream. He said he’s never met any girl who did not like ice cream. :sowhat: Yes I love ice cream. I’m a firm believer of the saying ‘I scream. You scream. We all scream for ice cream.’ I dont know if I wouldve forgiven him if he did had asked me for ice cream instead of coffee… :slant: The funny thing is, I did have a small blizzard from Dairy Queen hours before he phoned me… I had the really good strawberry cheesecake one.. :grin: Yummy.. Sadly though that was the best part of my day.

I really dont feel like working tonight after what I have to endure last night. I had the chance to eject 20 people out of the stadium and it never happened… :sad: The people Im working with are just so dense I dont think they deserve to be in customer service at all. They are just plain lazy.. I tell them that there are underage teenagers drinking and they dont do anything about it. They dont even check their ID… Next time I wont even care anymore because even if I do something about it, they dont take it seriously… :irked: Just annoys me…

Right aside from that, I’ll be missing the final episode of Lost… :pissed: 2 hours of Lost!!

When you say that you’ll call someone tomorrow, do you really call them the next day? Or do you just say that for the sake for saying that? I’ve heard somewhere that whenever guys say that they’ll call you tomorrow that doesnt necessarily mean that they’ll call the next day. If they dont call, do you call them? I guess that sounds kinda desperate huh? Well the same thing happened to me yesterday. He said he’d call tomorrow which is tonight and he hasnt. I’m not much of a phone-talker. I dont call people just because I’m bored. Thats why God invented the internet for those sort of scenarios. But yeah I dont know. He hasnt called. I’m not too worried I guess we did just see each other like last night. I might call him in a few days if he doesnt call me… We’ll see..

Right so today in at baseball game where I worked, I was chatting with this boy for a while. I didnt even go down for like 2 innings because I was chatting with him. He was funny and he had the nicest green eyes. We were just making conversation and what not until he asked me how old do I think he is. I said 25. He was surprised… Then I said 23? 21? Then he’s like.. I”m 19… Too bad.. I cant believe he’s 2 years younger than me.. And he was so cute.. He was funny.. I think he had a gf too since he was on the phone alot.. No guy would talk to another guy friend for a long time.. Text messaging each other.. That would be kinda weird.. Unless he’s gay which he isnt.. It was really disappointing.. I can tell he was flirting with me too but oh well. :embarass: That was basically the highlight of the day..

I bought black sandals finally! I got it for $8.00 from the local drug store. Dont ask why they were selling it there but it was cheap and luckily it was the only black size 7 sandals. The rest were blue which I didnt want to buy since I know it would not match with alot of my outfits… :smile:

Current Mood:

Right so the baseball had 3 extra innings today.. I was not happy.. We did win though! Thank God… At least it ended one way or another. Had to eject 5 guys because they had sneaked in 5 illegal drinks. Illegal means not suppose to be in the building. Sometimes people are not very smart. The 5 guys have water bottles filled with some brown fluid inside. Obviously you wanted to get ejected because if you didnt, you wouldve gotten rid of that bottle and put every liquid of that drink in your Coke drink. I never wouldve noticed… But no.. They just had to keep the bottles around. Not only were there 1 but 5 bottles of alcohol in those water bottles (one for each person). I also thought this guy brought a “mickey” inside. Mickey meaning a bottle of alcohol from outside the stadium. But it turns out that wasnt theres. It was the guys behind them who put it there… I felt bad telling on them. But I dont think they knew it was me.. I am just doing my job after all. So today there’s going to be some emergency meeting at work.. I dont know whats that about. I guess last night’s turn outs was a hectic. I didnt think it was that bad. I only had 5 ejections. I heard more stories later on like a guy having a heart attack, some guy who had to put on some oxygen mask and what not.. Im sure there are more.. :sowhat: We’ll see today..

Right so today I went to the second BJ orientation dress rehearsal. Me, being a clutz, accidentally stepped on my uniform white tshirt so I had to get a new one. The only advantage that came out of it is the fact that I got a new t shirt. A medium size one. I wore a large last season most of the time. I hope that medium lasts with me for a long time. So that was the first thing that happened. Then I noticed that most new ushers are guys. Some cute some are okay but let’s also hope that they dont quit anytime soon. So my first section is 526. The nosebleed section behind home plate. I wasnt disappointed or upset. I was okay because if I was in the 100 level, I would be too nervous thinking that people are going to jump on the field from my aisle. So with me being so high, I dont have to worry about that. I will have to worry climbing so many flight of stairs and stopping people from smoking… :irked: That will annoy me so. Alot of the people I met from last season didnt come back this season. Pretty disappointing. I think only 7 people came back out of the new staff last year. That’s pretty sad… I hope alot more will stay this year.

Right so my domain was down for too long last week… Maybe around 5 days or so. But now its up and running and I’m happy to say a part of me is no longer lost… lol. Work is going okay. I have no weekend this weekend since I’m working Friday through Sunday. That will suck for sure. But I do need the $ indeed. It’s been dead which makes the day so much longer. The good news is I’ve been able to make the goals that are set for us everytime we work. Last night my goal was to make $350 in sales and I made about $360-ish. Like I said, it was pretty dead.. The store had a bad start in the morning.. More returns than sales… I met a new girl at work. She came in to drop by her void check. I’m not sure what this means on my part on whether they are keeping me or going to let me go since I am a seasonal sales person there. We will have to see.. They havent talked to me about it or any of the other seasonal sales person.. :???:

So tomorrow I’m going back to school. It’s going to be interesting since I havent seen the boys in so long. I have yet to submit that resume for co-op though. I’ve finished it I just have to do that reference resume… Which I dont know how to do… :sad:

Right so The Blue Jays wants to work for them again this summer. I cant wait to see the fellow ushers that I used to work with. I get to see some new people and I hope some cute guys. ;P If I do get into co-op, I might as well quit my retail job since co-op will be in the day and Blue Jays at night. If I dont get into co-op, I’m stuck in retail…. :weeping: That is if I’m still there. I am after all a seasonal worker.

Current Mood:

Right so it turns out that my coworker who I get along with the most just gave her 2 weeks notice. She’s quitting.. :weeping: Pretty sad.. I might not see her again.. My boss was not too happy about it. I heard they had a little argument. My boss didnt even ask her to stay. Anyway so yeah thats it. I also heard a few other people who plan on leaving. Then again those might just be rumors but if they are true, my boss will be forced to ask the “seasonal” part-timers to stay.. like me.. I dont like working there but I wouldnt know what to say if she did asked me to stay.. I dont know whether I should say yes or ask to be transferred to a closer location. Basically people are quitting because of this one person.. She’s such a kiss ass.. I wont talk about her in detail but yeah. Nobody really likes her except for the manager and the assistant manager because she loves to kiss their ass…

So yeah tonight, there were these 2 guys who were harassing one of the ladies that I work with. She asked me to call security but I didnt know the phone number… :embarass: So then the guy was like ‘haha you dont know the number’. Basically they were swearing and harrassing her in front of the customer. Finally they left and now she’s afraid that they might come back. They were her ex-roommates who stole her shit. So yeah that might be reason on why she’s thinking of leaving… :look:

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

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:

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.

Current Mood:

So I thought I was going to work tonight. They had schedule me “on call” but I call them not the other way around. I was really hoping that they dont need me at the store and thankfully when I called, its pretty dead there. So the weather helped a bit. When it rains, people tend to stay at home and not go anywhere else. Tonight is all about that proposal that I have to redo because of my stupid Prof who thought I plagiarized the first one. I dont want to go into detail about that since I cried last week and this week about that situation. :slant:

Tonight my grandma and cousin is going to the Philippines for Xmas holidays. I’m so jealous indeed. :embarass: I havent been back home since I left when I was 10.. That’s 11 years ago.. Xmas there is so much better because they have fireworks. Yes they have presents here and in the Philippines, people are too poor to afford gifts. I didnt really care about those things when I was small. To me, the fireworks and food was good enough. :smile:

Interesting riddle for the day: Are YOU a Psychopath?

Tonight was my 2nd night at work. I am so damn tired! I didnt even know that I have to come in on Sunday because theres a damn work meeting for Xmas. :mad: I dont want to go since I have a proposal due on Monday which I havent started on.. Must start doing this tonight.. Anyway tomorrow I have a funeral to attend so I cant even do that. It is my grandma’s sisters funeral. I basically have no weekend. My feet are aching since I havent stood up so long since my last day from baseball. Thats it for the night. I’m too exhausted.

Alot has happened over these past few days… First of, Monday was my first day at work… I was in training and there was another girl also in training so I didnt feel so weird about that. I did screw up on my first ever refund though. Totally embarassing… :embarass: Instead of refunding the sweater the guy bought, I ended up charging him another sweater. I thought I knew what I was doing but I guess not.. Just doing a refund is so complicating… :slant: But my boss said it was okay. It is after all my first ever transaction – a refund. Then a few hours later, I sold my first sweater to a lady. I didnt make a mistake on that one. :wink: So that was good. My working this Friday so I’m glad I have Tuesday through Thursday off.

Then Tuesday was the math test which I was dreading. The night before I didnt sleep until 1: 30 am… and I had decided to skip my C class so that I could prepare myself for math… I thought the test was okay.. Then if I say that I know I did worse than okay.. I’ll just have to wait and see when I get my marks back…

Then today I was in the subway walking to my seat and I had accidentally touched this womans foot. I had said sorry then sat down. Then she barks at me saying ‘Maybe next time you should watch where youre walking’. :sowhat: I said to her, “I said sorry”. She said, “Thats not the point.” I said, “It wasnt on purpose.” She said, “Again thats not the point”. I didnt want to say anything after that since the subway was filled with people. But since I’m a nice person and all, I just left it at that. That really put me in a shitty mood to school. This woman was fairly large.. If she wasnt so large and 10 times my size, I wouldve said something more to her. :mad: Maybe if she wasnt so fucking fat and taking up all the damn space, I wouldnt have touched her fucking foot. Like I said, it wasnt done on purpose thus an accident. I’m not perfect so its not like I can see everything and do everything right. She most likely woke up on the wrong side of the bed, that fatass… :rude: I dont need to take this shit from anybody. Again if it wasnt the fucking subway I wouldve said that to her… I dont know whether shes so fucking bitter about being so fucking fat that she had to take it up on me… So yeah.. Any large people reading this should realize to take it easy and not bitch to those who ACCIDENTALLY touched your fucking foot. :devil:

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :jump: I just have to add that since today is definitely one of the best days ever! To some people it may not be a big deal but it definitely is for me….. It started off as me getting a 94% in my assignment for CPS311 (which is a difficult course) and then finding out later on that I got 22.95 out of 30 in the midterm test for that same class. The test was out of 50 so that wouldve meant that I failed but the Prof was nice enough to make it out of 30 since it was a difficult midterm test. And I know that most people failed. The average was 19 and the lowest mark was 9.9… So I’m definitely relieved that I was over the class average and that I didnt fail like I thought I did.

Then last night, I had heard from one of the stores that I went to have an interview for on Tuesday & Wednesday. She had left a message saying to call her back. I wasnt sure whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. I did give her my reference and I didnt think that was good enough for her but if she needed a second reference she wouldve stated that in the voice mail which she didnt.. So I was pretty nervous on calling her today since I didnt want that to ruin my day if I didnt the job… So after math… After not understanding -26 mod 17.. :freak: I finally called her and expected the worst news that she had wanted a second reference. All I know is that if she decided to not hire me, she wouldnt call me at all. So I called her and she told me that I’m a part of the Smart Set team!!!!! :jump: I’m so damn excited that I’m no longer jobless starting at Monday. I’m finally working in retail. It is only a seasonal job but I do hope to stay a little longer. She had stated that if I do well, I might stay longer. ;P The only bad thing about starting on Monday is the fact that I have a test on Tuesday but I couldnt say to the opportunity. I definitely couldnt… I dont know what to expect since I’ve never worked in retail except for selling food. But yeah.. I’m so lucky that I got this and we’ll see on Monday how this turns out.. :grin:

Alright so I havent blogged in ages.. School and work has been keeping me so damn tired and busy that my online life has been to the minimum… I dont even know if that statement made any sense at all. It turns out that I was on tv 2 days ago on sports highlights. I didnt see it myself but my coworker did. All I remember during the baseball game was that when I was sitting down, a foul ball came and I thought it was going to hit me.. It did land 2 rows behind me though and I had to talk to the guy who was hurt by that ball. That mightve been the clip that was shown on tv. I dont know for sure… Either way I didnt want to be on tv but there is a possibility of that when you work for a baseball team. 4 more games left and that will be it for me on baseball. I’ll be out of a job.. I hope to get another one soon before it’s too late.

That’s all I can blog right now.. Yeah short entry..

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. 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”.

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:

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.

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. 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. 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.

I havent blogged in a while. Thats because nothing much is going on with my so-called social life and what not. Anyway today was again one of those weird days at work. The gossip going around has been a little crazy. The rumor is that one of the ushers slept with 2 baseball players: 1 from Tampa Bay & 1 from Boston Red Sox. For baseball fans out there, sorry but I dont know which ones. We finally found out who it was though and we were surprised since she doesnt look like the type. She doesnt look like the groupie type, I mean. :???: My coworker really wanted to ask her if she did that but she didnt. I just feel bad for her since gossips spread like fire at work. Nobody can keep their mouth shut even me. I’m blabbing it in here already. :slant:

So yeah, I think I’m going to hell. These fans were talking to me about God and the life after death. They were hardcore Christians who preach people about God. They were asking me whether I’m ready about the judgement day and how everybody will be judged after they die. :hot: One of them were saying how even though a person hasnt physically killed a person, if they thought of some hate towards their brothers or sisters, thats just like killing their heart. Anyway I told them that I do believe in God and that I’m Catholic and went to an all girls highschool but I dont have the time to worry about the future. They ask why and all I said is how can I think about the future when I cant even handle the present? They really made me uncomfortable just standing their listening to them. One of them told me to read the bible- the book of James to be exact. :look: I dont know. I probably might go to hell now since I shrugged them off.

I wouldve blogged this last night but I was real tired from work so here I am retelling the story in here. Last night I went to work but not for a baseball game but for a soccer game. It was Italy vs Serbia and Montenegro in Rogers Center. I signed up since they needed more ushers for the game since soccer fans are more crazier than baseball fans. Indeed they were right. But I came there as a security since they had alot of ushers already. So the plan was me a security in 100 level. But there was too many securities in 100 so they had 7 extra people there and I was one of them. So they sent the 5 of us in 00 level that is the field level where you walk on the field and what not. I got to walk on the soccer field, the same field they use for baseball games except for one main difference. The grass was real. In baseball games, the grass is fake. So I was pretty lucky since I got to walk for the first time on the field with real grass on a soccer event. When we were walking, all the other ushers were so jealous of us! lol Suckers! My supervisor was walking with us trying to find for us a spot to be in. Then finally he ended up putting me in the spot behind the stage where the Serbian rock band is planning on playing during half time and behind the goal post and the photographers. My job as a security is to make sure that only people with a field pass and green bracelets get in the area. That was pretty easy since most of them were cooperating. :grin: Yeah all the other ushes were so jealous of me since I got to do that. Haha. I even got to kick the ball when it was out of bounds. ;P Haha Im such a loser then apparently when the band was playing, they showed me on the jumbotron (that big screen) but I didnt even know it until after the game. The only thing I didnt like is the fact that the guy in charge of the breaks forgot to tell me to go to my break. I will have to talk to him on Monday and maybe give him a little yelling or 2. Grr…

I have this horrible soar throat right now and Im slowly getting sick. Im not sure where it came from but I want it to go away now. I have to attend this birthday party this Saturday and if I’m sick, I will have the most horrible time. :headache: I bought 2 outfits which I know will not match with the whole motif of the birthday. I cant do much I guess since it wasnt easy looking for a dress to match with the motif (motif is gold). I cant return the outfits so yeah at least I can wear it for other occasions. :smile:

Speaking of work, next week I have a schedule for work but not baseball. Soccer. Im an usher for this soccer game thats going to be held in Rogers Center. The thing which sucks is the pay. $8 per hour instead of my regular wage $10 per hour. At least there’s more hours though. The teams are Italy vs Serbia and Montenegro. Granted there will be cute guys around there.

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:

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 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…

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:

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.

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:

I finally finished finals today… Im so happy and relieved that I dont have to deal with school for a few months. Suppose to work today but had a day off because of that sociology final. I didnt really study… :embarass: I kinda read through the chapters and sorta tried to remember the bold words and definitions.. I dont think I did too well on it. On the other hand, I got my essay back from that which I did with a partner. We got a 77% which isnt too bad. I didnt expect an A+ or anything since I know that Im not very good at writing essays (bad grammar… read the entries to see more bad grammar lol ).

Nothing much is going on besides all that crap. I have work next week which I believe is against White Sox. Oh yeah and at last nights game, I was booed. This stupid guy was cussing at the Tampa Bay players who was practicing in front of us. He was yelling and standing up so I ran down to get him and to tell him to sit. Then all of a sudden, I hear boos. I thought it was for the game but apparently it was for me since I told the guy to sit right before he was about to ‘moon’ them. :butthead: :irked: I could care less whether they boo me when I get home but if he had the chance to pull down his pants, he would get kicked out and I dont want that to happen. People pay to watch these games and I wouldnt want them to leave feeling all angry because they had been kicked out of the baseball game. Its okay to be angry because your team lost but any other reasons besides that is not a good reason to be kicked out. I want fans to have fun and you can boo and heckle to players telling them that they suck but pulling down your pants to moon isnt okay. :snooty:

I have a final this Thursday and I should be studying…. Why? Tuesday and Wednesday is baseball game (again :sowhat: ) and I dont get home until 12 am during those days.. So yeah today is my only day off until that horribly boring final on sociology. It’s all multiple choice though which I hope isnt too hard…

Oh yeah after work yesterday I saw my first Blue Jay player walking in the stadium to go home. :smile: I did the ‘double take’ look since I wasnt sure whether it was really Orlando Hudson. He was dressed in all white, baggy pants and sweater. As a person who works there, Im not allowed to talk to any Baseball players. If they say ‘hi’, I can say hi back not I cant have a full on conversation with them. I would if I was allowed but supervisors are always there so… I cant really do much.

Alright so today I finished another exam. I also did another one yesterday which I totally screwed up over. :sad: Im just here sitting on the labs in school because I have a job interview with Levis. ;P Haha another job for me if I get this job. I gave in my resume last friday and didnt expect them to call. They had left a message in my cell which is never on…. Then when I turned it on, I was surprised that they had called me. I didnt know when they left the message so I was nervous on whether I should call them back. Thankfully the message wasnt there for a very long time. :embarass: So I have an interview at 1:30 pm today… If I get this job, it would be awesome. The usher thing is only temporary which means after Baseball season is done, I no longer work there. This Levis job, if I get it, is obviously permanent. I dont think it pays as much as Blue Jays but oh well.

Anyway that is it for now. I will let you know about the interview by the end of the day.

Went horrible. I wouldnt want anybody to work there… :snooty:

I just got back from tonights work. It was my first baseball game ushering and all. I was pretty nervous coming to work since I have the power to kick people out and cut people off from alcohol if they get too rowdy and drunk. :???: I had to get used to it and stuff I may have sent one person on the wrong seat.. The supervisors placed me in the 114 section which is pretty close to the actual field (it is right next to the first base). I think they placed all newbie ushers in the 100 section to see if they can handle the home opener which is the busiest game in the Blue Jays season. If they can handle it then they can handle any game. I expected worse like bottles being broken and people hitting each other with it but tonight wasnt that bad. My section wasnt that bad either. There were instances where 2 group of people were sitting on the wrong seat so people had to ask us that there’s people in our seats can you kick them out? But other than those times its alright.

Some section were pretty crazy like people fighting, people were getting hit by items that people in the upper section were throwing. There was even a guy who ran across the field but the security caught him and the cops ended up arresting the guy. I think they may fine him $1000. Right at the end my coworker told me that in normal nights , its not this crazy. It was only crazy because the Blue jays were against the Red Sox (Bosox). Some BJ fans were even making fun of them saying ‘Go back to Massachussets!!!”. Lol some fans are just plain hilarious.

Right at the end, a supervisor asked me ‘Are you coming back?’ I gave him a funny look like ‘why are you asking me that?’ Then I got what he was trying to say. Like am i coming back tomorrow or am i quitting because of this hectic crazy day? I said I was coming back and that it wasnt so bad. I heard from my coworkers that their section was crazier. I think I just got lucky.. For tonight.. They are still playing Bosox tomorrow and Sunday so the craziness might not end after all. Another crazy game is whenever NY Yankees comes to town. That should be interesting….

Today is officially my last day in LS the ice cream store. :jump: Then next week I am off to a brand new environment which means brand new ramblings in here. I hope not to complain about stupid dumb ass customers who cant speak english and who bitch how the ice cream are too expensive. The French Crisp lady came by today and I told her that the store is closing and how today is my last day. She was so sad about it that she even wanted to give me a going-away card. I told her its alright and that she didnt have to. I remember her promising to give me a slice of her homemade French Crisp ice cream cake… :-P But she never did. She probably forgot…

Three more weeks of school left then exams!!!! :weeping: Still have assignments due which arent done yet… I dont think one of them will be done… Unless some miracle happens.. *coughjavacough* :sowhat:

Alright from now on, I will stop calling other women bitches. lol. And I laugh… But I am serious about stopping it though. Why do we even call each other bitches? Some its for jokes. Hell I do it to my buddies when I was in highschool. In fact Im sure everyone in the whole entire school called each other bitches.

Today in Sociology, we were talking about gender inequality. Not just gender inequality for women but men too but I wont talk about the men’s side. The women’s side definitely sticks out in my head. My prof stated that it took women many years to finally gain some respect in society. We fought the right to vote, the right to be our own persons and the right to wear pants dammit. Yet once we gain all that… we throw it all away and call each other bitches.. :irked: Women are 10 times more likely to call women bitches than men calling women bitches… Interesting isnt it? What is a bitch? Female dog… What is man’s best friend? A dog…. Thus a bitch is a property of men… I didnt even realize that until my prof said that in todays lecture.

Another thing that’s interesting is why do women have to pay taxes for feminine products like tampons and pads? We have no choice when it comes to buying those things. We kinda have to…. Why is it that women have to pay more for the same pants that men buy? Why do I have to get charged more for a trim for my hair while men dont have to pay as much?

Here’s an article I read based on that

Toronto is divided into sub-cities. The GTA, North York, Scarborough etc. I wont say where I live except I do live in Toronto (T.O for short). The GTA (stands for the Greater Toronto Area) which is where all the shops, tourists attractions are. Basically its like the NY city of USA. Thus it is prone to homeless people. The non-GTA area is obviously like the Buffalo of NY. I wouldnt say its rural but urban but not as busy as GTA. It has the occasional traffic but not has hardcore as GTA. Thus no homeless people. Until now…

As I was walking home, I saw a homeless sitting on the snow leaning against a bench made of cement. A “normal” person would sit on the bench but this homeless person sat on the snow. But thats not what I was thinking about when I saw him/her. I was thinking, Why is a homeless in this part of Toronto? There’s not alot of people in here and they dont really give away $ to strangers. Maybe it was a slap in the face that homelessness is not going away or maybe it’s increasing or maybe they just decided to scatter around in the country. Even though I was going home from a test which I totally screwed over and I just want to burn my hair because of it, this person’s problem is way bigger than mine. It’s not just his problem, it’s our problem. I definitely felt sorry for him. I wish I had given him some change but I’m not sure whether my change is enough. Normally whenever I’m in the GTA, I dont give any change because I know that instead of spending it on something productive like food, clothes etc they’ll spend it on cigarettes. Now whats the point of giving them $ when they’re just going to slowly kill themselves by smoking? Maybe if I’m in a real good mood, I’ll give them change but usually no.

So yeah if I see this homeless person tomorrow I might give change. Whatever change I got…

I was working yesterday and this woman came in the store and started complaining to me how one of our signs is half false advertising. The sign says something like Free* (the star information can be found below the sign stating “Buy $25+ and get a egg cup for free”) or buy the cup for $3.50. I do agree that it is false advertising that a regular person will think its free without knowing that you have to purchase something from the store. So she was bitching and complaining to me how the company is putting such false advertising. That her former friend was supposedly dyslexic and she might not have understood that sign since she cant read and all. Then I ask her if she cant read, how does she know its free without reading the word FREE. Well a simple word can be read by a dyslexic person, so she says. Basically she was complaining to me for 5-10 minutes about it while other customers are waiting to be served. There were times when I had to interrupt her and serve the other customers but this woman just didnt give up… :slant: Then she changes the subject about how she had bought a LS cookbook and asked me whether I have it and if I do, have I tried to cook something from it. Blah blah. Basically trying to make convo with me. Then after talking about stupid garbage things, she says “Oh yeah by the way, I’m a lesbian and I was just hitting on you.” :mad: That totally ticked me off. Not because she was gay but the fact that she was hitting on me right after she insults the company that I work. First of, you would think that a gay person would have some kind of a gay-dar or in this case, straight-dar to tell if a person is straight or gay but I guess not after all straight folks have been wrong about people being straight/gay right? Then second, if you want to flirt with me and want me to like you, insulting the company that I work aint going to cut it. You’re just making me mad thus your so-called flirtations just failed. Great way to flirt is NOT to insult their workplace. :sowhat: Thats why she had a beard….(But she had shaved it but I can still see the little hairs and stuff… EW!??

I spent 5 years of my life in an all girls and I’ve never been hit on by a gay person (at least not that I know of) until now…

Alright so I had called my partner and told him that somebody supposedly begged me to be their partner and he said its fine for me to be with this new partner. Partner for the assignment not anything else! lol. :-P Anyway, I just finished watching The Notebook. It’s such a sad/romantic movie. I havent cried so much while watching a movie since The Passion of the Christ which made me cry about 98% of the time. The Notebook only made me cry aout 70%. When I first saw Ryan Gosling from Breaker High, I thought he was the biggest dork ever but in this movie, he impressed me. He’s not such a bad actor. Rachel McAdams is great as Allie. I love that girl. She’s awesome and a great actress. She was great in Mean Girls. I thought her acting was so much better than Lindsay Lohan’s acting skills. :slant:

That’s it right now.

I had a dentist appointment today. I didnt like it. That flouride crap that they make you gargle(sp?) for one minute tastes so bad I couldnt handle it. So that was my day… Nothing new except for this guy that I’ve been hanging around with for quite some time. This is the same person who I thought liked me that wasnt even close to my type. Well he has a gf so thats good. But the flirting doesnt seem to stop. We continually flirt with each other. Sometimes I think that he likes me then sometimes I dont think so since he has a gf and all. I dont really know. Maybe I am sorta liking him a bit because I havent had so much fun flirting with a guy for a while now. Sad how going to an all girls highschool can do that.. :slant: He asks me for help on homeworks and stuff. I’m even meeting him on a study session this monday. Just me and him… I dont want to think about it too much since I dont want them to break up and all. I dont want to be one of those girls who breaks up couples… :no:

Today and tomorrow I am working. Why? Because I have no life.. Lol 8-) . Not really. I have a little life but since Monday is Valentines day and I do work in a chocolate store therefore they need me to work (not alone.. thank God). So the scoop with the store closing is that its not the company wanting to close us, it’s the mall management. Since our lease is up, we only pay then around $500-ish for the rent so in order for the mall to profit they have the power to kick us out and sell our space to other retailers like KFC, Taco Bell etc. They would be charging the rent of $800-ish. Thats why the mall wants us outta here. The company (us) is trying to keep us in here and they are trying to make a deal with the mall management.

At the same time, the mall has this raffle going on and they want certain stores to send out the ballots. We were suppose to sign up for it but we didnt because we’re pretty bitter about the whole kicking out thing. So when they realized that we didnt sign up, the mall management went to us and just gave us the ballots to give out to people. Apparently they signed up for us…. :sowhat: That is pure hypocrisy. Why would they want us to promote some stupid ass contest yet at the same time try to get us out of here?! Does anybody else see this picture?!!!:irked:

Another thing is they want to fix the mall so that it doesnt look like a “flea market” yet they want to remove a chocolate store who has a great reputation as one of the best chocolate sellers in Canada and replace it with KFC? The thing is if they have KFC as our replacement, the clothing stores next door will smell like chicken. Wouldnt you rather smell like chocolate than chicken?

Basically after Easter we should be outta here if the deal doesnt cut through. Otherwise, I’ll be looking for another job. :sowhat:

As I was going home today, some dude just started talking to me. He asked me what country I’m from, my age then he asks me “Are you free?”. Me being an idiot and all said “What do you mean?”. Then he told me that he wanted to go out with me. I politely said no, stating that I dont want to date anyone right now since I’m busy with school. That is the truth. Plus it turns out he lived one house away from me so dating the neighbour wouldnt be a good idea.

I dont get asked out alot and if it does happen, it’s usually the guys that arent my type… Why is that even before valentines day, I get asked out by the wrong people??? :irked:

Okay I think I didnt get the job as an usher of Blue Jays. The interview sucked like hell. Okay it wasnt that bad but I still dont think that I’ll get the job because of the screw ups right there during the interview. First thing is I didnt bring a reference. She forgot to ask me to bring them during the phone call. So I didnt bring them but she asked for them before the interview. Second mistake, my answers to my questions sucked. I was practically stuttering because I was so damn nervous. My answers were basically half bullsh*t and half truth. Then the third mistake was when she asked “So why Blue Jays?” That literally threw me off! I didnt think that question was going to be asked so I just told the truth that I dont watch baseball and that I picked BJ because I wanted to see why people like watching baseball…. :weeping: Such a bad answer. Then she was telling me about the stuff that they do how employees get free baseball tickets, they have lunches , games etc. I didnt care for those since they never entered my mind in a least bit. I asked her for the wage at the end of the interview and it is $10!!!:yikes: That’s like so much higher than what I’m getting in my current job. Makes me pray that I really got it but at the same time, I know that they’re not going to mail me a letter say ‘Congratulations You are now a part of Blue Jays employees’. :sowhat: She even said that you get your own locker, uniform and they even dry-clean those uniforms. Talk about pampering while on the job. They were only on their 2nd day of interviewing people so they have alot more to go. My guess is by the end of the month they’re going to be done then they’re going to send off their letters whether I got it or not.

I do hope I get this job. I hope my manager gives me some great reviews because when I called her so I could use her as my reference, she said ‘You’re not leaving me. I’m warning you, you cant leave me’. Jokingly I hope.

Is it wrong to flirt with someone who you dont like? I noticed this guy in my class who comes up to me every lab to ask for help. He didnt use to do that until this semester. We’re both in the same classes except for one so that means we see each other all the time. He’s not cute and all and he’s not really my type but I just noticed him coming up to me all the time for help even though one of his friends are real smart that he doesnt have to try. I think he asks for help as an excuse to talk to me.

Today we had a test on one of our computer classes. We studied (or tried to study) together during the whole afternoon before the exam. It wasnt easy since there was alot of flirting going on. It was really hard to concentrate. He could have studied with his friends but he sat next to me the whole time. I dont like the guy but it’s just fun flirting with him. I do think that he likes me but I hope he doesnt ask me out since I’m not really attracted to him. :no: But we’ll have to see. I seem to attract the non-cute/hot guys.. Why is that? :look:

Omg!! Guess who just called?! Blue Jays!!! That is Toronto’s Baseball Team. I sent in my resume and cover letter to them a week or 2 weeks ago and they want me for an interview! At first the lady asked me a few questions on the phone on why I want this job and an example of great service to the customers. I just gave her an example on the bat and I guess she liked it for next thing I know I’m having a little job interview this Saturday. I’m so nervous though I hate job interviews. I get all nervous and I turn all red. I also tend to stutter when I’m nervous. I hope everything goes well and I really need this job because I want to quit selling ice cream for a change.

I cant wait. I’m so excited I dont think I’ll be able to focus on studying for Friday’s test.

P.s. If I get this job, I may be able to get free baseball tickets. Not that I like watching baseball and all. :???:

Why is it that the WP control panel looks wonky in Opera???

I doubt anybody can answer that. So today I worked.. Nothing new on that except for the fact that indeed the store is closing. There were rumours going around the mall/store that our store (Laura Secord”) is closing somewhere around April. Random people have been asking us about it and my boss had asked her boss about it but she said no. Either she’s lying to us or she doesnt know or the store isnt really closing. But I think she’s lying to us. She isnt exactly the nicest person in the world. I’ve heard that she threatened another manager saying that if she doesnt work, she’ll be fired. The manager was sick… She had to work because of the threat then now she doesnt work anymore.

So yes, I might need to find another job. It is also possible that Vanessa will be relocated to another LS. If that’s the case, I want it to be somewhere close. If it’s far then I’m off to job searching which I’ve been wanting to do for awhile now but dont have the time to do it. :smile:

Today’s another week of school. Sociology was my first class today. This time the prof actually showed up unlike on Thursday. Thursday was a total waste of my bloody time.:irked: Anyway the class wasnt all that bad at all. The midterm and exam will be all multiple choice which is bad/good. Bad because I know that there will be some tricky questions. Good because I dont have to write an essay. The other stuff that we have to do are in-class group assignments and a group research assignment. Mostly group shit which make sense since it is a sociology course thus socializing with others. The pro about the in-class assignment is the fact that it is 7 groups of 6. There’s 2 girls in my group which includes me. 4 guys. I didnt mind that since my program (Comp Sci) is mostly guys. But 2/4 guys are good-lookin’ :grin:. Hehehe. I might just have fun in this course getting to know them and stuff. But I fear that they are younger than me. I hope not. Most of the first-years are either 17-19. I’m 20. I dont want to be dating some younger dude. But we’ll see.

So this tsunami thing is unfortunate. I just wish people would stop counting the toll of how many people are dead but rather start memorizing those phone numbers to Unicef or Red Cross. Those are the only numbers that we should remember. @– Another beef that I have is this whole donation thing, I’m not saying that I donated alot of money to charity (I only donated $1.50.. I am a student so I’m broke :rude: ). But why does a natural disaster have to occur in a country in order for people to donate? I think we should donate everyday regardless of whether there’s a hurricane, tsunami or a damn flood. Canada does have enough money to donate everyday it’s just the whole way of sending the money that’s causing a problem. But all of a sudden we can donate because of that tsunami thing? That’s just my rant for tonight. :look:

So it turns out I’m working tomorrow. :angryfire I wasnt suppose to but my manager has to work in another location because they dont have enough staff. So I have to fill in for her. :sowhat That’s not good since I was going to use tomorrow as a day to do my Xmas shopping. Yes it is last minute but I’m not too worried. I am a little worried at the fact that I need a gift for a friend since we’re doing this whole Kris Kringle thing. Then at 7 pm, its time for dinner with my highschool buddies whom I havent seen more a while now. So basically I’ve been working every damn day…. I dont have a day off except Xmas day.. I’m working on Xmas Eve, Boxing Day, and New Years Eve. That should be fun..:yuck But its all worth it once that fat paycheck comes along. Not to mention the fact that I have to start owing the government cash due to student loans… I work hard to pay hard… Bleh that was gay… Oh well..

I just got my flu shot tonight during work and right now, my left shoulder hurts like hell. It’s swollen basically. So if someone punched that shoulder, I’d probably cry. That’s how much it kills. :weeping

I’m still waiting for my mp3 player from ebay. The dude hasnt picked up my payment so I guess he hasnt sent out the player either. I really want it badly though. I’m sick and tired of burning songs into cd’s every damn day. I just get sick of listening to the same cd all the time. :irked I do have alot of cds (burned ones) but when you listen to them alot, it gets a little old.

Oh yeah, I had meant to post this after the US election but forgot. I just thought it’s a little interesting and see other people’s pics. Havent seen a cute guy anywhere though. :sly

Sorry Everybody

It’s funny how one person could just ruin your appetite and day even though this person didnt even say anything to you. So today after a long day of school with the physics lab and all, I decided to buy a chocolate chip muffin before I get on the bus. As soon as I sat down on the bus guess who’s sitting right in front of me? This girl from my elementary school and right next to her is my worst enemy, Daniela. That bitch. :angryfire Daniela and I arent on speaking terms so Claudia was the only one that said hi. I said hi back, politely of course. I also dont like her but I dont hate her as much as the other cunt. :devil When we did say ‘hi’ I saw that Daniela was looking down hoping that I wouldnt see her. The fact that she “tried” hiding didnt work because I still saw her. :irked So instead of eating my muffin in the bus, I didnt. I lost appetite. She just ruined my day also. We just have this long history back when we were 12 years old. I know it probably sounds so dumb how kids could continue having this grudge with each other but oh well. Not everyone can live in peace. I havent seen her too since highschool then out of all the places and time, I had to see her. Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time. Also I find Claudia to be fake. I know that she doesnt like me so why pretend to like me by saying ‘hi’. Really? Whatever. I hope I dont see her ever again.

Again my blog is being neglected by me. I would apologize but who would I be apologizing to? :confused Anyway, I just paid for my very expensive camera… and now I’m broke..:weeping. Aside from me being depressed due to money problems I have to start repaying the govt for the $ that I owe them from student loan. So I’m going to be broke….. but alot more…. :sad

Tomorrow I’m working early in the morning from opening to closing and same in Sunday. Normally I would hate working on the weekend especially with that long of hours but considering my money issues, I wouldnt mind that. I do want to work alot during the holidays and maybe earn as much as I did earn last year but I dont know anymore. My boss decided to hire 2 extra people. I’m not sure if they are permanent or just for the holidays. But that means less hours for me. That’s good if i have lots of homework but I do have to pay my bills… :slant

Alright so tonight is all Hallow’s Eve. I was working today and the store decided to give out some lollipops. They said to start giving them out at 3:30 pm. By 2 pm kids were already coming in the store and asking if we’re giving out candies. I kept telling them to wait until 3:30pm. It’s mall policy. 3:30 until 4:30 is Halloween time in the mall. So yeah. There were alot of them. Some even formed a line whenever I served customers. I was again working by myself. We were busy not because of customers but rather of trick-or-treaters. Some kids didnt even wear costume and didnt say ‘Trick or Treat’. All they wanted was candy. Others went in twice and maybe more to grab more lollipops. Kids these days. I think they should wear their costume & not leave it at home. Halloween is one of the days when kids gain weight and be fatter than they already are. :irked lol I’m so bitter. :bigmouth So thats my day at work. Then once I got home more kids were ringing the doorbell. We didnt have any candy for the first time for Halloween but oh well. My mom even blamed me because I didnt by any candies. Well excuse me? I’m the one that had to work by myself in the mall. Do you think I would have time to buy candies? :sowhat The doorbell kept on ringing which eventually got my brother all bothered so he decided to put up a sign on the door that says ‘Sorry no candy!’. Lol how creative. :slant

Speaking of school, I’ve decided not to go to class tomorrow. It’s waste of time plus I need a weekend since I spent mine working. Plus I also need to say in here that I passed my Physics test by 50%!!!!:jump I’m very happy about that considering how the class average was 48%!!!!:yikes I was definitely shocked with that. I guess I just got lucky with that 50%. People in my class were so angry that they were complaining that the questions in the tests were so much harder than the questions assigned in the book. They are right but you know… What can we do about it? It is a first year university course. And they also make your life a living hell when youre in first year…. Then last friday I had my math test. It was way easier than physics and I felt confident doing the test…. I think I did pretty well but I dont want to jinx it. :winktongue

It’s funny how life seems to put you in this twists and turns that you never would have expected…. Like today the physics lab wasnt so bad… At first it started in shaky because one of our partners decided to go with another group..:look I’m guess because she doesnt like my other partner. (There’s only 3 people in the group). So considering how the lab was about circuits we chicks didnt really know how to do this…. So we decided to go to another lab that consisted of 2 guys. They said yes for they also didnt know what was going on. But 4 brains are better than 2, right? The lab went by smoothly and I even got to talk to the cute guy in class. I did want to be in his group but you know.. I got shy on joining..:rosiecheeks So thats lab for the day.

Then tonight as I was checking out someones profile on MSN, I was shocked at the fact that this person changed it. This is the same person that I thought was missing or have died literally because he stopped talking to me and just disappeared without any warnings or reasons. I tried to keep in contact with him by emailing (I only know him through the net) but he never replied. So I had thought that he died or something for we havent talked since July of 2004. So knowing that he had changed his profile just proves that he is alive. The worst part is he doesnt want anything to do with me. I’m still in his msn list but I cant see his online presence thus proves that he has also blocked me off his list. Great… Just ignore me why dont you. If you didnt want anything to do with me, the least a person can do is let me know and at least have a little argument with me so I can hate you. :snooty I guess his way is the cowardly way out. So I blocked him back… Just because I, too, dont want anything to do with him…. :angryfire

I think I failed my physics test…:weeping The test wasnt that difficult but if only I looked over at some questions in my notes that were similar to the ones in the test then maybe I wouldve gotten a better mark. Hmmmm…. Thats about it for that… I dont want to talk about it. I got another test to go next week Friday. It’s going to be even harder though..:nervous

Tomorrow is my Dad’s birthday. He’s turning 50. Wow thats old. :rosiecheeks. I’m a little excited for there’s going to be Pumpkin Pie… Yummm… My favourite desert besides cheesecake. :winktongue I’m probably going to have some since it’s just there sitting in the fridge…..

A few days ago, I got a phone from Rogers Communications. When I answered, a machine (sorta like an answering machine) told me to hold on for the person will be with me. Hmmm..:sowhat Now I’m thinking.. This person is calling me and I HAVE to wait?! What is that about?! I think it should be the way around. I think he should wait for me to respond. That’s why you call someone because you need them for something therefore you should wait. That’s why they invented ‘Call Waiting’ so the caller waits until you’re ready not me waiting for the caller. Thats bloody ridiculous. :irked So I waited for a few seconds and each time I talked, the machine told me to wait…. That really irked me. :snooty Then it turns out the call was for another telemarketing recruiting my mom to buy internet. :slant Worthless.

Gosh ’til again Friday… I got free 4 pieces of Sushi today! :jump After physics a guy was giving them out to students and I happened to be walking around. So after math, I went to the sushi place and grabbed it. 8 pieces is pretty cheap compared to ones I’ve had before. I have eaten cheaper ones but oh well. I might stop by there sometime during the school if I have the $ to buy some. :sly

Hmmm so have you ever met someone and got to know them then they just disappear from you? The exact same thing happened to me this year. A few months ago probably around June. I had talked to a friend who I hadnt talked to a for a few weeks maybe. We were suppose to meet at the end of June but he just disappeared from my life. From July and now, I havent heard from them. I have no contact with this person except by email. That’s basically the main reason why I want to learn how to hack in someones hotmail account. :rude Evil I know….. This isnt the first time he has disappeared like this but it was never this long… My mind just keeps spinning for I keep coming up of possible reasons why he had gone so long. Did he decide to stay away from me? Did he get into some accident? He has gone into accidents… Car accidents mostly…. or worst comes to worst, did he die? It’s killing me that I dont know whats going with him. He’s not online anymore and I am still in his msn list. :sad There was even a time when I was looking for obituaries on the net for Ontario but no luck in that….:paperbag This is always going to haunt me unless somebody or something gives me a clue… I think it’s better off that someone tell me that he died so that I could live with my life…..:banghead

Read your email, Jean. The one with the efflux.org domain. :D

So work today was a-ok despite the fact that it was busier than a regular Sunday. I made 4 times as much as a regular Sunday. It’s not alot.. Trust me on that. It wasnt busy but people just bought expensive stuff because it’s Thanksgiving and all. Not alot of weirdos except for 2 people who had a real bad attitude. :slant Tomorrow I’m going to really study for Philosophy. I had planned/wanted to study today and yesterday but I get really tired after work that i just want to relax as soon as I get home. :rosiecheeks. Since tomorrow is a holiday, it’s studying time. Then check my Winter schedule on Tuesday and after the test, working again… :irked Oh well.. Maybe I can do my math if it’s not busy… :read I’m such a geek.

Nothing much to say really. Boring entry. :confused

Gah, MT is being a bitch again. :irked It decides to remove the blogs that are too long. Not everyone blogs every damn day you know! :confused Anyway aside from that, the weather is getting colder in here and I am getting ready for the change in weather. That means that I may get sick soon. Yes, I get sick everytime there’s a change from winter to summer, summer to fall to winter. I’m prepared for it. Bring it on, cold! :devil I got my pills handy! :lol2

Nothing much is going except for school stuff. Test next week on Philosophy but before that its Thanksgiving. I think I might skip it and study. I’m evil I know but I’m working on the weekend so I cant exactly study on those days. I have yet to send my resume and cover letter to the web design folks. I’m a little nervous for they may end up reading this. :rosiecheeks If I dont get the job, then its a disappointment… But I’ll live. :bigmouth

Is it possible to be depressed even though you are almost over your monthly cramps? It is possible to be depressed during it but I dont know about after… I was just thinking about my bills that are upcoming due especially that $500+ bill that I owe Futureshop. :paperbag I calculate how much left over after paying that bill that there isnt a whole lot. Not to mention the other bills that need paying. God I need another job with higher pay. I decided to look at Ryerson’s career center website. They had these links to places where I could find a job and found a section where professors in the University are looking for help like webdesigners, assistants and what not. Obviously I was interested on the openings as webdesigners. There were at least 10 positions that I found but I was only interested in at least 3. Most of the positions required a portfolio. And I thought portfolios are only for art students. :slant I guess not. I dont have a portfolio. I guess I’m going to have to start on that. Maybe build up as I get older and have more experience in computers. 2 out of the 3 positions that I found need not show portfolios but they did want 2 references. I dont have references when it comes to my computer skills but I do have reference from my current job. Anyway I created a second resume which I do hope to send in to those 2 positions. It would be awesome to have that job and make $10/hour. I know I’m not professional but I do have experience.

So today at work it was pretty dry except for the fact that the people are extra ruder.. If that’s even a word. :snooty Anyway, there was this bitch who said that she wanted a scoop for her kid. She didnt say single or kids size just a scoop so I assumed that she wanted a single size (which is bigger & much expensive than a kids size). When she saw the scoop she said, “That’s a kids size?”. I said, “No.” She said, “Well I want a kids size.” She said it with attitude mind you. My boss was next to me and mumbled, “I guess we’re suppose to guess what size they want.” So I put the scoop back in the ice cream without realizing that I had put it in the wrong tub. The woman then said, “Well I want Pralines and Cream not that one.” I said, “It is pralines. I just put it back in the wrong tub.” Then I served her the right flavour and the right size. I wanted to knock her face out that bitch.:angryfire

Before that, my boss was serving this 2 girls and their mom. The mom got what she wanted and my boss was just waiting for the 2 girls. One of the girls wanted a cup instead of a cone but since we ran out of cups, my boss said we can only give you cones. This girl started complaining how she wanted it in a cup and shit like that. Then she started talking how Baskin Robbins are best and that they have cups and shit like that. Seriously we dont give a fuck if you like another ice cream store but for crying out loud, get the fuck out and let us serve other customers. I didnt say that but I wanted to. :irked

Hopefully by tomorrow, the people will have stopped pms-ing by then and get a fucking life. Just because we stand on the other side of the counter that doesnt give you a right to bitch at us and start treating us like crap. We are human too and guess what?! Humans make mistakes. So if we screw up, dont fucking bitch! :devil

Alright so today was pretty dull at work except for some weird moments. For one there’s this guy who comes to get his waffle code french crisp ice cream. He works in the mall so I know him and what not. This time he asked for 2 instead of 1. He said that it was for his son.. I thought his son was young so I asked him for his age. He said 21….:winktongue I was shocked and I asked him if he was cute. Normally I wouldnt ask a father if his son is cute if its around my age because I just find that plain weird and uncomfortable. He replied saying ‘Well maybe you should see for yourself. Come down later on’. I said ‘I cant because I’m working by myself.’ When I finish work, they are probably all gone to go home. So he said ‘Well he looks like me. Am I cute? No. So.. I guess hes not cute’. I said, ‘Ok, i guess he’s not cute.’ I didnt mean that as an insult to him. I didnt really care whether he was cute or not. All I know is that I was interested in probably getting to know his son. :sly I never did got to see how he looked but we’ll see. You never know. Maybe next time he will be the one to buy ice cream for him and his dad instead of his dad all the time. :rosiecheeks

So I ended up going to my friends birthday dinner after all. I however didnt go clubbing. :bigmouth We had dinner at Montana’s and boy am I so damn full! :winktongue I ended up getting the shrimp pasta with garlic bread and ice tea. I didnt even bother getting dessert for I was hella full. Then everything was all good for they all took pics and stuff. I didnt really want to be in it but I couldnt really avoid that. :sowhat Bleh then tomorrow is work day. I know that that girl is going to ask me if I want to work on Sunday. I really dont want to but I know that I’ll feel guilty inside and out. I dont really want to feel all yucky during Saturday night thinking about it. I do need to help my dad out on Sunday for my brother wont be home to help him babysit. He’s leaving tomorrow night for the cottage. Anyway thats all for now. Nothing else to say. :smile

Okay so today I had to go to the bank to withdraw a large amount of $ to pay for the rest of the minimum payment for my tuition. Needless to say, I didnt like the whole trip for I am now in debt… :weeping I hate owing people money. It just makes me vulnerable…:no So anyway, today I also had to work and I found out that I got a raise so now I am getting paid $7.40. Yes thats not alot to some people but before I was getting paid $7.15 (thats minimum wage in Ontario). Aside from that this girl that I work with asked me if I could work this Sunday. She had plans already made on Sunday and didnt know that she was going to be booked on Sunday. I wouldve said yes right away for i didnt really mind working on Sunday (I work practically EVERY sunday) but this sunday was different. I had asked my boss if I could have a weekend off because im always working every weekend ever since summer school started. So before school starts, I wanted a weekend off. My boss didnt offer me a Sat off but instead offered me Fri and Sun off. I was happy with that as long as its 2 days. Then this girl calls me to ask if i could work on a Sun for she had places to go on Sun. I didnt say yes (i didnt say no either ) but instead I would rather not work on Sunday considering how when school starts i’m going to be working EVERY weekend for i cannot work on a weekday. I wont even have a day off when school starts. :tired Hence I’ll be hella tired… I will have to talk to her soon to deal with this but knowing how much of a softie I am, I’ll probably end up saying yes… :sowhat. It’s like I have this total guilt trip if I say no…. She had a chance to tell my boss that she had plans but she never said anything.. Bleh.. I hate her for this.. I hate my job for this…:yuck

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.

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

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

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

Nothing much is going on except for today I am working again. My boss decided to change the schedule without letting me know before hand. :slant I dont mind the extra hours considering how I need it to pay off my debts which has increased significantly since the incident but still it is plain rude. :yuck She shouldve called me first before changing anything. She decided to have a 4 day weekend and have me work for those 4 days. I am working on Monday even though its a damn holiday. So I do hope that i get extra $$ for that. Then its inventory soon which means more working hours. :sowhat Bleh and this means that i would have to finish my final essay before hand.

I received the pics of mostly my sis from futureshop. They turned out alright except for 1 where it was all blurry. I didnt know they were going to be blurry but oh well.. I also ordered a wallet size so I’m excited about that as well.

I think I will blog later for i have nothing else to say. :smile

So here’s the ordeal that happened on Friday night. Note that this incident still hurts and I do hope that this never happens to anyone.

So Friday night was clubbing night. My parents didnt know that I was going clubbing but I did tell them that I was going to sleep over at my friend’s house which was the truth. I packed up my stuff and when my friend picked me up from my house, she told me that we were going straight to the club. This happened at around 10 pm. I was surprised by this because I thought that we would stop by at her house so I could change to the club and drop off my things. So we decided to stop by at her friend’s house so I could change in her bathroom. After the changing, we went to the club. The club was in an area where…. Shootings happen… I didnt know this until we got there. The club was ladies free before 11:15 pm. We stopped at the parking lot first while my friend called a few people who were also coming to the club. Then after that at 11 pm we decided to go in because we didnt want to pay… I asked my friend if I could put my backpack in her car trunk because I didnt want anyone seeing it from her car. I took out my driver’s license and my cellphone. The license was for ID’s which was needed for the club because it was a 19+ club. And that was the beginning…. At 2:30 pm we decided to go home. I thought it was pretty early considering how the club wasnt really that bad… Except for the music because all they played was reggae. So we were driving to my friend’s house and once we got to her house, everything went downhill from there. As soon as she opened her trunk, my backpack was missing. My friend’s stuff from work was also missing. So basically all my shit was stolen from her trunk. Let me tell you this, I left the club semi-drunk and when I saw that my shit was stolen, my “drunkness” went away and I started bawling in her front yard. Remember this is around 3 am in the morning. We went inside her house and my other friend was calling the police while I continue to bawl my eyes out. So many things were stolen from me including my wallet, cd walkman, backpack, skirt, pajamas, jeans, 2 tshirts, see-through dress shirt, health card, social insurance card, 3 credit cards, bank card and my student card. It still feels raw for a bit now. I got home at 4 am and my parents were yelling at me while i call the credit card company. It really wasnt easy considering how I slept at 5 am and woke up at 9 am.. Not enough of sleep.

On Saturday I was suppose to work but I told my boss that I couldnt come in because I had to talk to the cops. I told them everything that I had lost and he even gave me a lecture that people shouldnt leave anything in their cars. I already felt bad enough and here he goes lecturing me. I cancelled all my credit cards and got a new bank card. My mom went with me on Saturday to replace the bank card. She’s been supporting me on this. She’s been comforting me and telling me that I just had a bad experience and now I know what not to do. Tomorrow we’re going to get my new health card and my new social insurance card.

Anyway, that’s what my weekend mainly consists of.. Yes I know it was total crap weekend. The worst weekend in my life. :weeping

I would talk about what happened friday night but I”d rather not. I might talk about it in a few days when I am feeling all better but right now I am so depressed and upset about what happened on Friday that I’d rather not spill it here. I dont know if I will ever say it online but you never know.

Yes this is a rather useless blog. Oh well… comment on the previous blog if you have to..:sowhat

I have decided to go to the club, Intercourze on Friday night. It is my friend’s birthday so.. yeah.. I’ve decided to be a good friend.. :bigmouth. Today I
received the letter from the government concerning my Student loans from them. Suprisingly enough, they only granted me $244 for the whole school year… Hmm… Thats basically the price of 2 books… :irked Obviously that isnt enough for tuition. I need around 5 grand to pay my tuition this September. I dont know if anybody remembers but last year I had the same problem. The government only granted me $500 then I asked for an appeal then they finally gave me the $5000 (ish) that I need to pay my tuition. I gotta do the same thing again and the whole process of appeal is not easy. I gotta send all these proofs that my parents cannot afford my tuition. Documents like electricity bills, phone bills, car insurance and debt from credit cards are to be sent to them. Forgot to mention that I also need to send them proof that I am working in the summer. The government expects every student who asks for Student loan to have some kind of job during the summer or else how are you going to pay for the damn thing? I’m so glad that I applied earlier this year because last year I applied in August and the whole process took forever. Bleh.. I hate the government… Damn Canada…:angryfire

I finally finished my essay tonight. I didnt get a chance to print it right away because I had to take care of my baby sister so she goes to sleep. She finally slept at 1am. For a baby, thats pretty late. Anyway, I went to work today again. I did some reading :read for school which was great because I know that i wont be able to do any reading this week. I’m practically working when I dont have a class which sucks like crap. :slant The reason for that is my manager is on vacation. Since she’s out, I gotta work like I’m full time or something. Then again it is worth it because I get paid alot more than usual considering how I’m on minimum wage :no.

Thanks to all those people who commented on my pictures. I did take more pics and they arent uploaded yet. They will be found on the ‘art’ section once they are on the net. God I’m so obsessed with taking pics of the flowers in the front yard. They grow more and more everyday!!! :smile Thus more reasons for me to take pics…. :winktongue Anyway, that is all right now. I gotta get some sleep.. Good night.. :sleep

I’m tired of studying. I just need to watch those movies all over again because I didnt get a chance to go on Saturday… I had to babysit my sis on Saturday. Anyway, I also went to work today and thank god it wasnt busy because I studied to kill my boredness and to kill time. :smile I did do alot of studying which was suprising considering how its not exactly quiet and I had the regular interruptions of customers wanting ice cream… :irked Other than that, it’s almost July. July 1st is Canada Day.. Bleh It’s not like I’m celebrating it or anything. I’m probably going to end up doing my second essay..:glasses I’m a nerd I know but I never really celebrate it. I mean im not exactly a Canadian citizen but then again you dont have to be one…

Another thing that I notice is the popularity of gmail… It’s this email account that Google is offering to people. Apparently you need an invite or something to get an account like how it was with Livejournal. I’ve never received one but then again I dont think I would use the email. The only good thing I’ve heard about it is the big ass space that you get with it. Like you could store images or something like that. But the weird thing that I’ve heard is if you delete an email, it is never really entirely deleted.. Hmm… something’s fishy going on… People will actually trade to get an invite… :slant

I dont know… It’s just not my thing.. yet…:winktongue

Today I worked… i wasnt suppose to but my boss called in last night on having me work from 3-930… Bleh.. So why not.. I really wanted to do some note taking instead of dealing with customers but I have no choice. :slant Work was fairly busy considering how I was working by myself. I also saw 3 stores that was hiring part-time. I need to give in my resume there. Speaking of which, I need to print off my new resume after this blog. I cant believe I lost my old one… That one was so much better. :smile I do hope that I get one of those jobs. I want a new job because i need to get out of the food industry. I wanna work in a clothing store or an office or just somewhere where it doesnt involve food.. :paperbag Yes I am not too proud of my job… Bleh.. :irked

Aside from the bad news that I stated yesterday, a friend of mine left australia to come to toronto to be with yours truly.. :jump This person is in NY right now and will be coming to toronto during the weekend. I was definitely excited about that considering how this person is suppose to have a whole vacation around the world but ended it because he/she wanted to be with me… :sly Ahh… I cant state the gender because some people who knows me offline might be reading this…. :shhh I will let you know if everything else goes well.

I was reading the newspaper today and saw that Holly Jones’ murderer is now going to be put in jail for life (25 years). He admitted that he killed and raped her because he has this (more than a year long) fantasy of having s-ex with kids. Holly Jones just happened to be there when he wanted to sleep with kids. He is a comp programmer to loved watching kiddie p-orn. It was pretty upsetting reading that article and its unfortunate that I had to read it and see it on tv. Nobody should be reading or seeing that article. It’s just too upsetting and shocking :no. He pleaded guilty and thank god he did. The guy also admitted to cutting up her body with a saw :confused and putting it in the fridge then getting rid of her legs by placing it in the garbage bag. The rest of her body was thrown in the lake. F-ucking perve… :angryfire There’s probably more of them in there.. I so hope he and the rest of them rots in hell. :devil.

Damn I am in some need of a new job. I saw one of my friends in the bus today and this girl is someone who I havent seen in ages for like a year and more. We were talking and she was telling me how she has this full-time job in insurance. She’s not going to school at the moment and shes getting paid like $12/hr. Damn!!! I need a job like that. She also has a second job in this pharmacy as a cashier. I am so jealous. I wish I made 12 dollars /hour. I would kill to have a non-food job. :yikes I need a job that doesnt involve food then in a few years or so get a job thats not related to customer service more like an office job. I would die for that. :drool Anyway I was looking on the net but unfortunately 99% of the jobs are for people who have loads of experience. The computer field needs about 2-3 experience if you want to work there. I would have to wait until I graduated to even apply to those. There were some that I was definitely drooling over only because they are my ultimate dream job. :drool But unfortunately some loser is going to end up taking it while I wait for another four years of school. Seriously just to be working in an office environment as a the filing girl or something to that nature would be awesome… :confused If only I could get an awesome job like that…

Today I again worked…. But during my break, I went shopping!!! :bigmouth I bought tights and a skort.. I love this skort though because its beige color and it has stripes at the bottom. The skirt is by Wilson :sly You can see it below.

Anyway thats all I wanted to say… All that is left to shop for is a pair of sandals… :smile

Went to work today.. And again tomorrow. Im exhausted. :bored As soon as I got home I went to bed and slept for 1 hour and 45 minutes. I couldve slept longer but I didnt want that. I got another day of work tomorrow and I didnt want to change my sleeping patterns. I also have an essay to finish by Tuesday. I think I’ll start that tomorrow. I already have all the information I needed so I just have to start it and I hope that my info is enough for 4 pages. :confused Nothing else to rant tonight I guess. I know my blog is boring. :look Ah well..

I just thought I add this.

Can you tell I have nothing to say???

Today working was crap!!! :eek The day started out wrong first of all. I admit I went to work late on purpose because again like last week I am working by myself for 6 hours without a break. The law states that if you work more than 5 hours, you should get a break. Since I am not getting any, I wanted to be late so that I can start later… duh.. Anyway, once I came in and counted the cash, some stupid fat woman was yelling at me saying that I am opening late. The mall opens at 12 pm and why am I opening at 12:05 pm, she says… :slant I didnt want to explain to her the reason why I was late because that is none of her business. :angryfire She kept telling me that she was waiting for the store to open but it wasnt so she kept walking around the mall until I opened the store. She also told me to change my watch because my time was wrong. Well guess what.. I could care less whether its 6 am or 8 pm. I dont care… I was only 5 minutes late in opening the damn store that isnt alot.. I wanted to punch her stupid face and start yelling at her that I do not deserve this kind of disrespect from customers like her. If she really wanted to go shopping in the store, there are other locations in the city. Im not just going to open on time just for one person. I could care less…:snooty

I dont get paid enough for this job…

I got my first tip from work today!!! :winktongue I never get any tips but this old lady gave them to me because I was so nice to the customers and her. I was so happy. That’s 50 cents for me. lol :hyper Aside from that I am no longer going to work more than 5 hours without a break. A law in Canada (except NFLD) states that if you work (full/part time) over 5 hours you should get a 1/2 break. Today and almost every Sunday I have been working 6 hour shifts. Yeah ok, Sundays arent really that busy but still. I get so busy and restless that I dont have that customer service that I should give to people. I work every weekend and I am lucky to have next Saturday off. But if I see myself working more than 5 hours and no break, I will talk to my boss and say, somebody better come for 3 hours while I get my break. The minimum hours a person can work is 3. There is no point for coming in for less than 3 hours. If they dont give me a break, I will either not work or close the store a few hours or minutes early. It’s their choice because you know what that is the law. Breaking the law is not cool :no . Thats child labour for me you know. Not giving me any breaks.. :slant

Argh.. tomorrow I gotta pay my tuition.. Blah… :bored I dont wanna because I’m gonna go broke. :weeping
