SICK
Holy shit, I have suck a horrible cold. Barry sent me home early today because I just couldn’t. I was supposed to work till 12, but at 10 he told me I could just split.
I’ve been working pretty much everyday, and with my free time I’ve been laying in bed, because I feel like such shit.
I just have a typical cold, sore throat stuffed nose… but X3.
"IT'S A GUY THING"
Translation: What I did is going to piss you off/upset you, and so I’m not telling you.
You know what, fuck off. There isn’t one thing that I keep from you, so whatever stupid shit you were doing last night, I deserve to know. And also, don’t expect me to forget this.

HAD MY FIRST OPEN TODAY
When I left my house, and had to put my headlights on because it was just THAT early… I suddenly got very depressed. Haha. Waking up at 4:30 for work = not fun. I’m used to night shifts only.
Also, apparently it doesn’t get light outside now till sometime after 7:00AM. Hum, I had no idea.
FIRST SHIFT
I can tell you right now training is going to be boring as hell. Reading from manuals and learning recipes. Only incentive: I’m getting paid.
I’m getting trained (today anyways) with another guy who just got hired, named Jason. He’s pretty chill… we get along.
I work an open tomorrow, Thursday @5:00PM - 11:30, and Saturday open. Not too bad for my first week. I better...
WENT TO A STAFF MEETING TONIGHT
It was pretty pointless in that I don’t really have any idea about half the stuff they were talking about, since I haven’t even been trained yet (first shift is today [since it’s technically after 12] at 11:30).
I did get a feel for everyone who works there though, and a bit about the store.
I got home just before 10, and then watched Dexter, and some other Tivo’d shows.

I GOT THE JOB
Barry just called and said I’m hired! He’s gonna try and get me in the schedule for the following week, but he says things are pretty crazy there so he doesn’t know if he’ll be able to (and honestly, I don’t care. Cause with Halloween and every one’s birthdays in the next few weeks I’m gonna be almost perma-smashed… so it’s really no big if I...

GOOD SIGN
I had my second interview at Starbucks today with Barry, and everything went really well.
At the end of it, he told me “Assuming your references check out, everything looks great”.
And Katie worked later that day, and called me saying that Barry pretty much said I had the job unless my references screwed me over.
Gah, that makes me so happy. I would REALLY like to start working (I...
SAUNDERS RIP-OFF
Well, last night was… interesting.
Rosa asked me to go to Saunder’s farm with her cause Rico had gotten her passes, then we were gonna go drinking after. She picked me up just after 7, and we drove around for a bit. We got some gas, a bite to eat, and a quick stop at Macs.
After this is when things started to go downhill. We got to Saunders and the little guys with the wands showed...

STARBUCKS
This is what I wrote yesterday at 1:30, after I had gotten home from my interview at starbucks:
I dressed classy, yet with a subtle view of cleavage, just like everyone suggested :).
I think it went pretty good. Well, I’m more than sure, because after we were done he said: “Well, that’s all for the first interview. I can tell you that it went well” Haha.
Apparently they are hiring 2 people out...

INEVITABLE
Christopher is probably gonna get his own place now that he’s pretty much got the job. That upsets me so much. I love having him stay here with me. I love seeing him everyday and knowing that he’s always here for me. I’m sure (/I know) that he’s fucking sick of me already, but I guess I was just too ignorant to realise that he wouldn’t stay here with me forever.

EVERYONE IS SUPER LAME
Don’t return my texts, don’t answer my calls, bail on things, ditch on things, don’t wanna hang out, have better things to do and better people to do it with.

HALLOWEEN PREP
So Christopher and I went to a few Halloween stores the apst few days, cause I was gonna try on the Robin costume that everyone voted was the best of the options. I grabbed one, and went to try it on. …it was the biggest piece of shit ever. Firstly, in the picture it shows that it’s so form fitting… which it is not. It fit so stupidly, and I was trying on an XS and it was still loose and really...

SUNDAY NIGHT
I have tons of bad sleeps, but I think last nights was just tops.
I kept waking up every half hour or so. I mean I woke up A LOT. The last time I remember was around 12:3PM, when I just finally gave up. The first time I woke up was around 5:30 (I fell asleep at 5ish). I always shut my closet doors at night because I can’t sleep with them open at all for some reason. So, the first time I...

STOKED
Looking at flight fares last night with Dom and Christopher got me so excited to go to Florida. We had planned to go after Christmas, but Carleton goes back to classes January 2nd, so that leaves us barely any time down there.
The 5th - 15th of December would be PERFECT for us to go if everyone’s exam schedual’s allowed it, becuase flights are so cheap. $114 to be exact.
I really...

TATTOO
Katie and I went downtown for her 10:30 appointment at Living Colour for her consultation. Her meeting took like a grand total of 30 seconds, haha. We were talking to the girl who is tattooing Katie after, and she said I SHOULD go for a consultation, even though the first chick I talked to said I didn’t need one. So she booked me the consultation at the same time that Katie is going in for...

SAW THE WORST MOVIE POSSIBLY EVER MADE TONIGHT
Christopher, Peter, Andres and I hung out today. Peter had to leave at 9 because he had early class the next day, and his mom would flip shit if he were out too late. So when he left the three of us decided to do something. Since it was Tuesday we figured we’d see a movie, and Christoper really wanted to see Jennifer’s Body. I told him it would be a super shitty movie, and Andres...

KENNY VS SPENNY
Christopher and I have been watching it non-stop for the past few days. I had Sesons 1 and 2. We got through those pretty quickly, and so we headed over to Best Buy and bought seasons 3 and 4.
We should be done those soon, then we watch season 5 on the Showcase website, and sit and wait for Season 6 to start in November.
Even though we’ve seen all the episodes and have been following the...

PVR
I got one today, and I can already see myself going record crazy.
I only got one because my mom wanted an HD one, and my grandma wanted one in general (you see, in my house everyone hibernates in their rooms and watches their own shit. Now, every one’s bedroom actually has one. Kinda sad). But anyways, my mom took mine, my grandma took my moms, my dad kept his own, and I got a PVR....

(500) DAYS OF SUMMER
Christopher and I went to see it today.
I saw it already with Liz around a month or so ago, but Christopher decided he wanted to see it finally and so had a nice Sunday date day :)

IT WAS SO AMAZING
to hang out with everyone again. I really truly missed it. I had more fun in that few hours with all of is than I have in a while. Not that we did anything special, but just all being together again was so familiar and comfortable. Peter, Andres, Christopher, and I were pretty much attached at the hip for years, and somehow went most of the past year without all 4 of us hanging out at the same...

SERIOUSLY, YOU NEED TO GET OFF MY ASS
I have my mom on one end bitching me out about finding a job, and my dad at the other end freaking out about school.
Trust that I have my own fucking life under control, and don’t need lectures three times a day about how I need to get my shit together. You know what, I am 19, and don’t know what I want to do with my life at this point, but you know what… that’s not a...

MAKING $100 AT THE GARAGE SALE TODAY
And knowing that I need to use it to pay bills and can’t even do anything fun with it makes me realise just how badly I need a job.
In a way I kinda wished I was going back to school this year, cause then my parents would pay more stuff for me. That sounds AWEFUL, I know. But I’d rather be writing papers, something I am really good at, than faking nice to people trying to make money...

FUCK SLEEP
I had such an awful sleep last night.
I was SO exhausted, and I told Christopher that. And for the first time since I can remember, I actually fell asleep at a decent hour (1:30). Then, he woke me up at 2:30 to tell me he couldn’t sleep. I didn’t actually mind that at all, it was cute. I told him to close his eyes and think happy thoughts; Haha. Then, I get woken back up at 3 to him...

You get pissed at me because YOU THINK that I am mad at you? (When, I might ad, I’m not).

SCARIEST CONVERSATION
So today I had to tell me dad that I’m getting a tattoo in a few days. I was almost shaking. My dad is so old school. And I know I have the whole “I’m 19 and there’s really nothing you can say” card… but I didn’t wanna pull that. I’m daddy’s little girl; only child. And even though I’d really end up doing it either way, I’d want his...

HONESTLY, THEY FUCKING PISS ME OFF
My parents.
They’re on my case to get a job. I found one with the exact hours I want (Monday - Friday days), at A&W. Then they come in with the whole “Gah we don’t want you working at a fast food place, blah blah”. Like, what the hell. What fucking difference does it make? I really don’t understand their logic. No where in this town is fucking hiring. I told them...

OH YEAH...
There’s something I’ve been meaning to put down into writing, but haven’t had the chance to (okay… haven’t remembered to) do until now.
I had a dream about the hotel we stayed at in Montreal, months before we actually stayed there. When I saw it the day we went, I was so freaked out, but of course kept it to myself.
You have to walk up a long set of stairs to get to...

CURRENTLY UNEMPLOYED
Is it bad that the main reason I want a job is so that with the first paycheck I can buy the Columbia costume? Not pay my visa bill or save for next years tuition. No, no. Buy a costume.
I mean, I’ve been going as Magenta for the past, what, 5 years? And don’t get me wrong, I love that costume and am proud to say that I made it from scatch and it cost me a total of $10 to make (and...

IT WAS RAINING
Pretty hard. I went upstairs and checked not long after I posted about my night, and there was no way I could have the garage sale.
So, at 7:45 I hopped into bed.
Katie had to wake up at 11:30ish for work, and so I woke up with her and stayed up till around 12 when her mom picked her up. And what did I do after? Went immediately back to sleep of course. And I am just finally getting up now, at...
