got a digital cable box today: I am now watching Movies and New Subbed/Dubbed animes on TV now.
Otherwise,nothing much happened today XD
Post how your day was
-
-
I think I'm about to give up trying to remix Folder 5's Believe… this song is just too damn annoying.... after spending half the day on it =P phooey.
-
Working on finding a job. Applied for work at Costco, BestBuy, and Petco.
-
Well, today was my last day working at this Linens-n-Things… I really am gonna miss working there! I hope the store I get transferred to is not lame....
It was cool though, I was finishing up some seasonal freight and my sister came to the store, wanting to buy some things for her new apartment... I was still clocked in, so I went and helped her pick out things... After my employee discount, and my mad suggestive selling skillz, she wound up spending like $230, saved like $95 or something like that. I made sure she got some good deals though. wants the 450 thread duvet cover that she bought XD
But yeah... I won't start at the other store until Nov. 26, which means I have a week to do NOOOOTHING! Except moving.... And I laugh because I get to miss working on Black Friday. Haha! Just the thought of waking up to be at work at 5am is just scary... I feel sorry for anyone in retail on that day.....
-
I WON! I won a contest on nintendo.com!
Even though the prize is a tree seedling, I still am shocked i won on thier site! O.o -
I made one decision in my first period and it ruined my whole day. Never thought one tiny thing could have such a negative affect.
-
When I got home I pretty much immediatly fell asleep for like almost 6 hours… Which sucks cause I was gonna use the rest of the day to finish those gameing chores... Meh I still have Saturday and Sunday.
-
what's black friday. I've been in a rather grumpy mood this week. didn't feel like being online. and i'm always online. work was just bleah. really bleah. everything just blends together. I can't even think of anything that happended from day to day anymore. we had cases of pop onsale this week, so my back got really sore. freaking people. 4 cases of pop on the belt might not seem much to lift, but when you have say 150 customers a day, and they all buy a bunch of pop, and they are all stupid and put it up on the belt, plus all the other stuff you move and lift..your back really hurts! leave the dam pop in the cart. That's why I got a scanning gun! (well they're not all stupid, but the stupid ones do frustrate you)
hey Iron Law, did you get a promotional shirt. I didn't get one this time. I came in at 7am on monday, and they were all gone already. I did go to the insiders report taste testing though. The noodle wrapped shrimp is AWSOME! and I got a recipie for shrimp soup. I ate it all, and felt queezy the next morning. (too much of a good thing)
I went out for sushi monday after work with a friend. She might drag me out to the gym today. we'll see what happens. :) and I'm almost done all my main christmas shopping. Just gotta get for that darn dad. he's impossible to shop for. I have to get off my ass and mail them all today. uhg. wrap them for presents, then wrap them for mail, then address them, all, then lug them all to the post office. then spend money. poo. good thing I love christmas.
oh and my Degu is loosing hair off the tip of his tail. anyone got any suggestions.
hey Neko. congradulations. good luck with your fresh start. Hope all works out well for you.
-
I'm bored today. I'm caught up in my college class, I'm a part-time flagger and there's no work available, and I have other obligations to attend to. Thus I've been enjoying the "wonders" of the Internet.
I think tomorrow I'll go downtown and enjoy the city for what it's worth.
-
I think it might be all Japanese teachers that are patient, there are like 4 at my school one old woman, 2 hot japanese chicks, and one short american dude with long hair. All extremely patient.
I just have to reply to this:
My Japanese teacher (an old Japanese woman) was probably the most impatient teacher I've ever had. She also liked to brag about herself a lot.
Even though I got an A in the class and the material was pretty easy, I decided not to take Japanese II because I wasn't sure if I could handle another semester with the teacher.
-
The day was pretty sweet. I met my anime-loving friends and we hit the mall. We went straight to the arcades where we abused the Para-Para dance machine for several hours! XD It was fun! Now I'm hooked on Para-Para!
-
My aunt and my two-year-old cousin came into town last night. My uncle didn't come cuz he had to work.
Today, my aunt ordered out from a local restaurant. I got a bacon-double chee with onions. I always get that when they order from there. Lemmie tell you, it was awesome!
I'm still full from it.EDIT: I also got fries with it.
-
That's awesome Tommy! Has anyone here tried Jack-in-the-Box's new BBQ Bacon Burger? It's so fucking delicious! It's topped with BBQ sauce, three different cheeses, onion rings, bacon, all the usual condiments on a buttermilk bun. Now I'm hungry.
-
I think my sister just sprained her ankle …
-
Went and rode my horse, got offered a potential job by my trainer, and came home to discover that my little sister's neglect had finally killed one of our two bettas. (It was the one that I liked the most as well…)
-
what's black friday. QUOTE]
The busiest day in retail, for the most part….
hey Neko. congradulations. good luck with your fresh start. Hope all works out well for you.
thanks ^^ I still miss working at the old store lol
-
Woke up and did a bit of my homework, then raked leaves. Played video games for the rest of the morning, and then slept and did more homework. Followed by getting really pissed at seeing One Piece doesn't air tonight (favorite episode tonight). Very boring day. But, thanksgiving will be nice. Get to see my cousins and uncles and aunts. And my grandma of course. :)
-
Pretty much a good day. Went to the mall with my friend and got a manga volume + saw Beowulf at the movies
-
Sigh… I just saw the date on the calendar and tomorrow is when it will be a full year that I started watching One piece.
Nothing much today.. tried fixing my computer with no Luck,watched videos of Parappa 1 and Cooking Mama 2.. Tired figuring out what one of my one piece items is and then now i am drawing on MS paint -
While not today, mild hilarity ensued on Thursday.
For this to be funny, you have to remember that where I live, wintertime lows are still 10-15C. Nobody wears heavy clothes.
So for lunch, the boss decides to take us out to a Japanese restaurant. At the next table, a bunch of teenagers sit down. One is wearing a big white fur-lined jacket.
On the way out, I have to walk around him to see if he has the Justice kanji on the jacket.
Of course, ANYONE wearing that outfit in a Japanese restaurant must be an otaku cosplaying Smoker.
-
Well, later today I shall be going down Nottingham for training, hopefully I will have the good ol Internet, but if not, this will be goodbye for a week, well….untill Friday. Anyways, have fun and try not to miss me much (tho I never post anymore XD)
Edit: Going now, farewell! waves hanky

@pirateneko:
The busiest day in retail, for the most part….
ah. I asked Solar last night. we don't have that in canada, cause our thanksgiving is in october. our buisiest time is the few days before christmas, and boxing day, of coarse. but I'm sure you all know about that. :) Good luck with that then. I feel for ya.
uhg, well my day. I still have the presents sitting on my couch waiting to be wrapped and mailed! I'm so bad. I spent the afternoon at the gym with my friend. That was actually kind of fun, cept I felt totally aquard since I am a couch potatoe and never been to a real gym. XD good thing I had her there. I do feel good today though. This could help with my cashier aches and pains.
Then, in the evening. first I make a nice big hot bowl of soup. I go to sit down with it at the computer to chat with cricket…and I spill it. all over! on the keyboard. on the desktop. all over me. all over the carpet. on the computer chair. on the little garbage can under my desk. everywhere. T_T. what a mess. spent half an hour cleaning that up. go to chat with cricket online, finally...and my internet screws up. this just happened last weekend. damn I hate wireless internet. it sucks. Good thing I do not pay an extra charge for the internet here. damn thing. |:\
at least I had a good lunch today. yummy stir fry with noodles. and I didn't spill it all over myself. now maybe if I can just get off my ass and wrap those gifts to send off.
-
this place is a shithole >.< I hate it, can I go home now????
-
no. you were bad, local. this is your punishment for being bad. (i kid)
what's wrong with the place? you in a hotel right? can't be that bad, can it? O.O
(never been in a hotel in england) -
I bought 2 dvds of Desert Punk,D.Gray Man Vol.5,and Guilty Gear Jugement
-
Woke up at 11:15 AM
Finished homework for my online class that wasn't due until next month.
Played Wild Arms 3 for a few hours, did line art for a drawing, watched TV, and am about to take a shower. -
Not much, but got a lot of homework done, practiced basketball, slept, played more basketball in rain, and finally changed my avatar and sig.
-
This morning I passed my driver's test FUCK YEAH!
Now all I need to do is find a way to write a 2000-3500 word essay on Scientific Management…. -
Rebuilt the PC my brother uses (4x the memory, 3x the CPU performance, newer video card not held together with cold-weld) and all he can do is whine because I dared to give him a fresh install of the OS.
-
Drew, inked, colored a bit, listened to music, had some lulz, and listened to music. =/ Pretty boring day. Hoping tomorrow will be more eventful.
…shit I just realized it's exactly 12 AM
-
Fucking PC is dying on me. I just need it to last til Christmas… something tells me I'm getting a laptop. Excellent.
Other news, work is reducing our hours... like I only work 8h oppose to 20h >___I don't know if its the whole store, ALL stores (C_U, same deal with you?) or just our department.Also, this 'ex' good friend of mine broke up with his loser girlfriend. Thing is, when something a miss is going on with him (or like this, a break up) he starts bringing me back into his life. Thing is, a few years ago he had the MAJOR hots for me, yet me being the sweet-innocent and thick as a brick girl (the poster of all girls vomits ) every lil come on (piff my ass) went right through me. Lend to some problems, yet the main one being when we actually did get alil somewhere I asked how many girlfriends hes had before (I like to be safe, knowlegedable and so on...) he says he wouldn't tell me... so I keep my 'innocence'. My fucking ass. Yadda yadda, now hes single- and calling on me to hang out and have coffee, I have many opions I can take...
I dunno, but I'm leaning towards the lead him on and fuck him over side. Just cuz I feel like being really mean right now (cuz of the two above) that and I don't really fancey him.
:/
Course, can all blow up in my face, yet anyone could of told me that. sigh choices 9___9 -
still not having fun ;-; although college is ok thus far, its all just notes and stuff, then a break, and same old, same old.
Now I'm hungry due to lack of food though hahaha

@Iron:

well yes and no. see it will get busier for christmas, and then slow down in january, but around here we are so understaffed. espacially my store in particular. It is so hard to get workers in my area. all the buisnesses are feeling it. all our departments are short staffed. We reall feel it in the front end though. I've been getting 40h per week, and front end isn't allowed full time employees. (i don't know why) Acording to contract, I can only work 40hrs for 12 weeks. the 13th week, they gotta give me part time, otherwise by law, they gotta make me a full time employee. so, my department still needing me. ( we would so die without me) I got part time hours on the official schedual, and a couple of shifts under the table.
I pray we have enough people in january when I'm suposed to leave for subway. I don't wanna leave them stuck.
today we had one person not show up during the day time, and we could have really used that person. the second break person had to cover a lane, and it got real busy a fwe times. for half an hour we had 3 people from other departments come over and help. At one point, my assistant manager was working self scan, talking on 2 phones, dealing with a fix it guy, and listening to a customer yell at her. I told her later, she gets a gold star.
(this is why i am so tired at the end of the day)
-
My computer is back to normal :)
-
The druggies down the street. As I type this, one of 'em's gettin' hauled out on a stretcher…again.
-
Well, I colored A LOT. Yay for accomplishments. :) I went to Game Stop too and got Rune Factory, which is a pretty good game as far as entertainment goes. I just know it'll be a good time killer for the break.
I wonder if I should start working on my school project…I mean, I can get this one section done, and that'll be just one less section to do of the many others and all their faggotry. -_- Thank god this thing is due in 2 months. We've barely had any of these projects compared to how many we had last year.
-
Finally can play files using quicktime on my mac! dance and I am also able to FINALLY import files to iMovie so I can start working on my AMV!
-
Today is one of the busiest days of the year(For Cub Foods)
I got the day off.
-
My day has been pretty good so far. Fort Worth is much more laid back than Dallas… My mom and I went and visited the store I am transferring to. Looks nice, I like their bedding department, I hope they keep me in that one. I spoke to the manager as well, I am starting there on Monday at 9am. I'm pretty excited about it.
We were looking around for this 22 piece set that is a freaking sweet deal for the holidays, its a set that includes a platter with a gravy boat and some salt and pepper shakers ($40 value), a turkey roaster and a knife set... after a $5 rebate it would be like $10. Naturally, they were sold out! I even called my old store in Dallas, they were sold out too! And before Black Friday... ooh boy, there's gonna be some pissed off customers.....So we went to Khol's after that, I found some cute shirts and a jacket, and I needed a push-up bra... got some pretty good deals and a $10 thing for spending over $50...
I treated my mom to lunch at Chili's, since I was disappointed for not being able to buy her that 22 piece set.
After that, she stopped by the post office and there is a Game Stop next to it, so I headed that way. I started chatting with the guys in there, they were talking about a particular hang-out spot nearby, since I had mentioned that I just moved back to this side of town. Fun times. I also found out that I'd get like $25 for trading in my Game Cube... I may trade it in when I buy Rock Band.... Though I need to get a 360 first since I want it for that system XD
That is all so far... I was watching some kid play Guitar Hero 3 at Game Stop, so when I got home, I had the urge to play a couple of songs....
Now to go draw something... or possibly clean my room =P
-
Today was so nice and relaxing for a change. Slept in (till 8:30, dogs were wanting to go outside), took a nice long hot bath. Then I baked some homemade from scratch oatmeal raisin cookies (all healthy with whole wheat flour, no sugar), but I made up for that with my perfect Hello Dollies (7 layer cookies) which are basically a heart attack in a dish.
Ran to Petco and chatted with some of my coworkers, bought some new fish for my aquarium. 3 Albino Tiger barbs (now my nice big school of tiger barbs is complete), and I bought some Cherry barbs, and a couple more zebra danios, and two more serpae tetras. I had a bunch of schooling fish that I only had one of. Also got some pretty live plants to put in there. Need to save up now and get a CO2 diffuser, and some better lights. My goal is to have a very heavily planted tank eventually.
Looking forward to being lazy the rest of tonight, and hanging out with my family tomorrow.
-
Finally snowing again. Hopefully I'll be able to go snowboarding sometime this weekend.
-
Sanctum, I don't mean this in any rude way, but your avatar always seems to go with everything you say. Just makes me laugh.
-
I suppose that's a good thing then. If my avatar was disagreeing with me, some shit would go down.
I'm talking replacement issues.
-
not bad just drawing and playing online games . and typing on forums.
I am also planning to move furniture in my room later, before it gets too dark to do anything
Finally got my christmas shopping done too.:happy: -
my day? school, eat, homework,eat go to work,chat with friends in the Internet and check out Apforums before I go to sleep… One of those days I could have skipped without a problem...huh, guess i need some snow, it makes me feel ...calm and peaceful inside..
-
Meh, it was pretty good. I decided to skip Japanese, which I slightly regret, but meh. I drew lots today, and that was fun. And I frantically practiced at this one girl in my sketchbook, and did a little drawing of Marco. Just a boring day. Listened to some music, stretched a bit, and am about to go get my DS and play some more Rune Factory.
I am thankful for no school this week.
-
I'm going to Maryland tomorrow for Thanksgiving
-
Hey, TigerLily, Let's go to Silent Hill and bust some heads open XDXD!!!
…
I guess I'll go back to studying. -
SNOW DAY
No school.
-
Thanksgiving was kinda dull… My mom went on some annoying rant. And now I've got a headache.
