La Dia De Mi Coche

Today started off alright... I really didn't want to be at work, but things were going well. I had two major sales that almost made me wish that I worked on commission. Later however, the weather got way too hot... which slowed me down soooo much... I barely did anything, yet when it started to rain 30 mins before the end of my shift, I did more than I had done in the few hours before. lol.
Anyways, last night I had decided that today I was going to look after my car, so I sat down with my parents and asked them what I needed to have done when I went to get it serviced. They gave me a list, and when I got there today I handed the receptionist the list and told her "I want those done". She probably thought I was retarted or something. meh. Then I said "like, how long would that take?" and she said an hour and that I could just sit here and wait... but I said "ummm, actually I'm gonna go shopping"... I knew that sounded bad, because everytime I go there, I look like a complete idiot. Anyways, shopping didn't go well either as I was looked like a stupid person once again trying to buy new wipers. lol. Then on the walk back to the car place it started to rain heavily again, so I returned as a socked idiot with a shopping bag. meh. Hopefully I will not have another dia por mi coche anytime soon.

Finally, A True Night Out

After work yesterday Alice called me up and we decided to go out for dinner when she finishes her work. I did some light window shopping before picking her up... lol, then we went to visit Robin. The three of us hung out in his kitchen while I was analyzing his parents' flower placement... but that is what happens when flowers are all you can think about. ha ha. So yea, we had some of Robin's birthday cake... and I was enlightened about ice cream cakes. Then Tacky and I went out for dinner and ran into a girl from high school that I didn't really get along with. Thankfully she wasn't our waitress, who knows what would have happened... but then again, that was ages ago... on the other hand, I wouldn't doubt that our server talked to her after we left about us. meh... oh the drama. Anyways, then we went out for bubble tea... I loved mine so much, and would probably say it was one of the best ones I have ever had. By that time it was way past my normal summer bedtime, so I dropped Tacky off and headed home. Driving home was the creepiest thing, because it was just after 11 o'clock yet my town was pretty much a ghost town. There was nobody to see for miles! Typical.

It's a Charmed Life

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBIN!!
Enjoy this special 20/20 birthday!


Today I went shopping at my favorite mall... and had mommy buy me a couple of nice shirts. She rarely spoils me so, but this has put me in such a good mood I'm not thinking into it too much. I've been bitter with work so much lately, or simple just too tired to care about anything, so I guess today was really necessary to lift my spirits. Hopefully days like today will get me through the rest of the working part of the summer. Okay, now it's starting to seem like I'm a clothing obsessed little girl who is easily pleased.... meh, that could be true after all.

What Happened To Those Thunderstorms?

The double picture is from yesterday, I didn't know which one to use, or what to write. In fact I didn't do much yesterday... except a lot of cooking. My family has a new rule (lol, another, I know~), that I have to cook one night per week (this is full of restrictions and sub-rules). I chose Monday (to get it over with - I don't procrastinate)... so I made this casserole from a recipe Craig gave me (the one we made at maggie's xmas party)... only I had double the amount of meat... so I ended up having to double most of the other ingredients. In the end, it turned out really well... I would actually make it again to eat. My family enjoyed it too. However, now they have this idea that I can actually cook and expect good meals in the future. This cannot be good... since I actually can't really cook. meh. That sounds like such a pathetic Monday off, but that's pretty much what happened. Anyways, I'm super tired from work right now, I was expecting a nice rainy cool day, but it turned out hot and sticky... not cool!

Dress For Summer And It Will Come

Summer has been a little lousy, just waiting to see my friends. Hopefully this week it will turn around. I haven't been anywhere or done anything yet, but really, who's fault is that? On my days off I just relax... which is pretty sweet! I so badly want to go get my haircut... but I'm unsure of what I want them to do. Side bangs? Just a trim? Cut shorter? Dunno. I hate being undecided. Enough hair talk... I do that way too often. Ummm, right now I'm just hoping that the next 8 weeks go by really fast and that I make lots of money so I can spend the rest of the summer being studious while still having fun (which is much more my forte than this hard manual labor). Anyways, adios.

Working

Haven't posted in a long time. If you lived here you would know why. Anyways, I had my first day back at work aujourd'hui. It was more painful than I expected... even with my scary supervisor off for the day! Grrr... I had to deal with newbs. Patience being seriously tested.... especially when one barely speaks English. When I talk to him, he gets all scared and has no idea what I am saying. This might be because lots of people think that I talk fast. I don't really think that I do, but I certainly do to someone who's first language is not English. Also, I tend to want to make things look perfect, but when my manager tells me to move things over and over again, I start to get a little frustrated. When I put something on a shelf, I make it look nice, but then I am told (sometimes less than an hour later) that it has to be moved. OMG! So then I go and move it... but by the third time, I really lack the will power to make it look as nice as it did the first time.
I am so tired. I hope your summers are going well.
