I'm pretty happy, getting back in the swing of things with work and all, got a busy day tomorrow (technically today since it's 2am :D) working a double oh the fun it's gonna be :)
Can't wait to get all my stuff straight again, it's taking a while but I'm getting there. I haven't played WoW in a while, noone on to play with atm and I miss some friends who play with me, I won't name any: Zoomy, but I think they'll know anyways. Holidays are about and I had two parties I attened this past Sunday. The first one I went to was a huge family get together. Was great the whole family got together and everyone brought presents for all the kids...it was amazing I got to hold my 1 year old niece while she opened her present, it was so cute :) (I'm not gay, but it was cute!) when she held the Winnie the Pooh Doll out with her outstretched hand away from her so she could see it, she giggled with joy and immediately wrapped her arm around it like a doll. I then let her down to see what she'd do and for the longest time she was going around giggling while holding the doll :P don't see that everyday. I got pretty attached to them when I was living with my Mom, but I never knew how much till this past Sunday :')
After that party, I went to my boss' party at his house. Holy crap there was a ton of people there, but for the first time ever I knew everyone at the party O.o how odd is that. My old boss is my new boss' wife. I already knew that of course. So when she invited all her store people, of course I knew them I worked with them, but then also the people at my new store I knew as well haha, good times....Ironically enough we played dirty santa with my store ppl, and I ended up winning a board game called "pass out" the irony is I have never drank before and they all knew that haha. I just had bad present choice, I should of stolen someone's gift!
Anyways I had a blast we finished the night up by finishing watching the football game between Carolina Panthers and NY Giants....I was mad that Carolina had a comback loss :( seemed like everyone wanted the Panthers to lose. I'm not a huge football fan, but I do watch it from time-to-time and the Panthers is my favorite football team, ever since I could remember which was about since 6th grade.

zomg :/
Though I hate Blockbuster, I now currently got rehired at a new location back in SC. They didn't screw me over here like they did in Augusta, but still took forever! I get free movies/games again :D kinda nice and I'm slowly working on getting my own place :)
Once I have my own place and I've saved enough money, come this next summer I'll be getting ready to hit the books, back in school! I'm pretty excited seeing how it's been a while and I'm gonna get my degree in education so I can become a Math teacher, and you'd know that if you read one of my previous blogs :D
I'll keep more up-to-date now that I have the time :P
Btw, anyone notice I do a lot of "smiley/face" icons lol
Just got back from a B-day party today, was my niece's B-day party :D she got all kinds of things, namely Dora to be exact :P. She's completely in love with Dora and my Mother calls her 'princess' so she had gotten all kinds of Dora/princess things. Was a great party, free food/drinks with a bunch of kids running around haha.

Waiting...
I'm now waiting on a phone call for an interview with Pizza Hut, and finally got in contact with the Bank. Now comes the waiting game...getting an interview later this week with Pizza Hut as a driver...and not quite sure about the Bank yet.
Now, Friday, I'll be going to my friend's wedding. It's about an hour and a half from where I am currently staying...so not too bad. I'm getting him and his Wife-to-be a gift card for their wedding. Now it's all about waiting either way I look at it...waiting for Friday and waiting on my phone call, but luckily I gotta talk to the Pizza Hut Manager about Friday so even if she does call me she knows Friday won't work for me for an interview. All the anticipation of the wedding and getting a phone call for an interview is killing me slowly :P. I'm excited about my friend's wedding and about getting a job again, DAMN BLOCKBUSTER!

The hunt!!!
Well, today I went to Pizza Hut about doing an application...check this--no extra pens to fill it out. So, I decided to bring back the application and take it back the following morning. Since I saw a sign outside of Krispy Kreme the other day while going to the bank to see about a job, I think I'll stop by there tomorrow. Gonna go ahead and fill out an application for UPS to see if I can get a job there. To be continued tomorrow....

F***ing Blockbuster
Well, I was working at Blockbuster in South Carolina so I could make money, and get free movies/games, and when I was told I had to move out I looked into getting a transfer to the Blockbuster down in Augusta. Well, I had everything planned out and went and talked to the SM(store manager) to where I wanted to move to, and she said she would have me go in front of a panel of people to see if I should move higher up in the company as a four-star CSR (Manager abilities given to a Customer Service Representative). In other words I can open and close the store. My transfer was being put in, according to Peaches(SM); coincidentally the place I would supposedly be working at was off Peach Orchard Road :D.
So, that next Wednesday, I went in front of the panel for my interview. Hah...who would of guessed that the panel consisted of a lady who used to own the store in Lexington, S.C. that I worked at...and boy did she have it in for me.
I'll cut to the chase, I thought it went OK for her being there, but I was not in the least bit excited. I never got along with her before. I was told to call back on Friday..so I did, SHE WASN'T THERE, WTF?!!? I thought to myself, why would she want me to call Friday, the day she's off. They said she'd call me Sat. so I left my number with them again(third time leaving it).
She didn't call, but I was playing WoW(world of warcraft) and a friend was telling me I got terminated at the Blockbuster in Lexington and no transfer was put in. I immediately called her on Saturday evening once I found that out and she was there. She sounded like she didn't even care anymore, and said I should try another Blockbuster. I worked at Blockbuster for 1 year and 1 month before deciding to transfer and now there isn't a spot open; but last week there was. Blockbuster can go F*** itself for all I care. I worked hard everyday. Some ppl might say that working and putting up movies is an easy job and I had air conditioning etc. Well, part of that is true, but if my feet didn't hurt by the end of the night I felt I didn't do my job properly. I always went out of my way to help people and those who were just tired 'cause it was late...were lazy bastards who didn't do their job, imo.
Job hunting begins...

Let ppl who read this blog know.
I'm gonna write at least once a week..even If I have the most boring week ever, I'll write something :)
What I wanna do..and for a friend I wish I knew more.
Well first off, let me say this: I moved out from my house 'cause I was made to. My parents told me it was time to grow up, yet I still wanted to stay 'cause I wanted to finish College.
They said they gave me enough time so they gave me a month to move out. I moved out on the 21st of September. This probably looks like a bunch of words thrown together because it really is...I never take the time to think what I'm writing out unless it's an essay :D.
Moving on, I've decided that I want to become a Math teacher. Not some Math teacher that goes to work and does what he's suppose to do, but I want to go abroad and, like my friend, and teach in Japan. My friend told me about this program, JET (The Japan Exchange and Teaching). I've love watching anime and reading about Japan's culture and one day would like to experience it firsthand. I want to go to Japan and teach Mathematics and speak with the Japanese and learn from them even if I'm a teacher. Here's why I say that: "To teach is to be taught, but what one learns is not necessarily who you are or what you'll become, but in the end you'll use it, good or bad, whether you know it or not."

Claudia, You've been a real help with everything you've done for me. It may not seem much, but to me it means everything in the world to have someone who cares, wholeheartedly. Never once took back anything you've said...and you may not know but you say it with such conviction it makes me want to be a great person like you. Though I don't know a ton about you except for what you've told me, one day I'd like us to hang out like real friends do and hope to have a good laugh :)
You're friend,
Sassypants :)
