It's a New Year!
Mood:  rushed
I'm just sitting here on the couch, watching the crow on cable. The cat is curled up next to me, trying to get me to pet him and suckle on my skin. My kitty wubs me ^-^

My first day back in class was this morning, or yesterday morning to be technical. Wasn't so bad, professors seem nice so far. Geology teacher still knows me, and he started lectures on the first day.. evil >.<.

I'll write more later, eventually. yeah.

The Day Before New Years Eve.
Mood:  party time!
I have no clue what to write. Lessee, my first week back at school it seems as if I will be facing a 30 hour work week. Sadly, I had the option to have that changed, or a day removed, and I was all "No, It's no problem, I can work that." I'm so nice.

Well, tomorrow is new years eve. I'm probably going to go hang out with Audra, and her boyfriend Luke and their friends. She's going to find out if its ok if I spend the night, that way I don't have to drive around late at night with all the drunkards.

Don't know what else to say, so here's a song for you.

Good Charlotte - Predictable

Something isn't right
I can feel it again feel it again
This isn't the first time
That you left me waiting
Sad excuses and false hopes high
I saw this coming still I don't know why
I let you in

I knew it all along
You're so predictable
I knew something would go wrong (something's always wrong)
So you don't have to call
Or say anything at all
So predictable (so predictable)

So take your empty words your broken promises
And all the time you stole cause I am done with this
I can give it away give it away
I'm doin everything I should've
And now I'm makin a change
I'm living the day
I'm giving back what you gave me
I don't need anything

I knew it all along
You're so predictable
I knew something would go wrong (something's always wrong)
So you don't have to call
Or say anything at all
So predictable (so predictable)

Everywhere I go
Everyone I meet
Every time I try to fall in love
They all want to know why I'm so broken
Why am I so cold
Why I'm so hard inside.
Why am I scared
What am I afraid of
I don't even know
This story's never had an end
I've been waiting
I've been searching
I've been hoping
I've been dreaming you would come back
But I know the ending of this story
You're never coming back
Never..never..never..never.....[echo].....

I knew it all along
You're so predictable
I knew something would go wrong (something's always wrong)
So you don't have to call
Or say anything at all
So predictable (so predictable)

Everywhere I go for the rest of my life (so predictable)
Everyone I love
Everyone I care about
They're all gonna wanna know what's wrong with me (so predictable)
And I know what it is
I'm ending this right now..

My kitty can be a very bad kitty.
Mood:  bright
My kitty likes to climb around in the christmas tree, and jump onto the front window ledge almost destroying the little coca-cola village on it. My mom goes ballistic whenever she sees him nearby.

..or, he'll lay on my chest and I'll pet him, then suddenly he'll start suckling on my chin. It's so... ew. Slimey. Still not as bad as what he did to my brother. *devious grin*

Oh, last journal.. saying "I love my job." Yea, that died last night. Went through the night going "I should quit, I could find something better, I've got experience." But like always, that feeling disappears when you realize you work with such wonderful people. And the managers aren't completely bad, even if they aren't completely good either. All I can say is.. people can talk alot of smack, but can't take smack about themselves.

Got a little ego boost when people think I actually do a good job in my departments. Most of the time its "You should have been in juniors, you clean that place up alot better." comments. Which, I think is weird.

Maybe I'll update again later today, just out of things to say right now.

Mood:  happy




MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I must be on crack.
Mood:  cheeky
Dude, I just worked roughly 13 hours. 13 hours, retail, last day of huge sale right before Christmas. And I still left thinking "I love my job!" Anyone else a little scared?

More quotes!

me: I'm going to take my lunch.
sean: dude! Without me?!
me: you're on a register!
sean: well then wait, sheesh.
me: ... , ok.

*later on*

cathy: you guys went to burger king? We had hot dogs, for free.
me: meh, I didn't want a hotdog.
sean: I got -two- whoppers!
sharon: Oh, guess these two are too good for hot dogs.

me: vittorio, shopping are we?
vittorio: no, I'm helping.
me: off the clock?
vittorio: it's my christmas cheer.

josie: a warning to those who work new years day: Don't show up.
us: ...
josie: seriously dont. But if you dont, dont show up for the rest of the week either.
*every one goes to check their schedule*
me: josie, I love you.
josie: *arches a brow* I gave you the day off didn't I?
me: *smiles sweetly*
josie: thats ok, just be sure to answer your phone if I call.
me: doh!

There was alot of other more hilarious crap, I just can't remember them. Alot of acting out family guy, arnold sw..governor of california, napoleon dynamite, and etc. Seans great. We're going to miss him and die of boredom when he goes back to his university. >.<

Oh, oh! Josie informed me an ulterior motive for the big boss wanting to see my photography final photos. They want to send them in the the Corporate Newsletter. I'm going to be a Kohl's Celebrity. Maybe >>.

Update later, when I feel wittier..

Boredom makes you do crazy things.
Mood:  spacey
Gaah, work it so throwing me way off schedule. I woke up and was late for work by like an hour. Except, the manager told me last night I didn't start until 3, so.. I was misinformed. *slurps some coca-cola* Ah.. carbonated deliciousness.

Lately I've been pondering how my life would be if I did indeed join the Navy like I had planned last year. I would have been enlisted for about a year and some odd months if I would have actually followed through with it. I wonder how buff I would have been, hehe. Some times I think deciding not to go wasn't the best idea, but actually considering going wasn't the greatest either. It would have seriously developed my character, and made me more able to not be pushed around by ignorant people. Buut, I would have missed out on my roadtrip, missed out on meeting my new friends, and re-newing old friendships, missed out on my car, my laptop, my photography class.

Speaking of classes. I did good! Two B's and a C! And I only got the C because I BS'd the big research paper at the end of the class, and missed a test because of a doctors visit. And I doubt I got higher than a C on the final test, since I didn't study for shit. Heh.

Random quotes:

"You guys don't get paid enough for the shit you gotta clean up."

"If you drink too much, you get some wierd disease. If you smoke too much, you get some wierd disease. If you have too much sex, you get some wierd disease. Do you think this is nature's way of saying 'Hey, you're an idiot.'?"

"Stupidity is not a crime, so I guess you're free to go."

Girl 1: If your boyfriend can go a whole week without trying to get into your pants, it means he really likes you. If he can't, it means he really likes sex. Oh yea, It has to be a week where he sees you nearly every day, you cheaters.
Girl 2: But all guys really like sex.
Girl 1: Yes, but there's a big difference between "girlfriend" and "fucktoy".
Girl 3: How do you know you're a fucktoy?
Girl 1: When you realize the only good thing in the relationship is the sex.
Girl 3: Fuck! I need a new boyfriend.

"Sadie, you have to be one of the craziest people I know. But then again, thats a big reason why I like you."

"Joo're ebil >.<"

"I'm too lazy to finish this sen"

me: Hi, did you need help?
customer: Oh, no. You're the one who needs help.
me: heh, thanks.
customer: try not to get lost in that pile of clothes now.

me: I slept until 2pm somehow.
stacey: That was my fault, I drugged you.
me: I thought I saw you in my yard, I just thought I was tired.
stacey: nope, that was me.
me: you're a trouble maker.
stacey: yea, I try.
me: stay out of my yard!

me: Beth, I cherish these moments when you're zoning the juniors tables, and insulting me.
Beth: Aw, you're so sweet.
me: yea, it makes me feel all tingly inside.
Beth: *laughs*

"We should just gather up all the crap on the floor into a big bag, and put it on hold."

"I'm -so- going to name my kid foxhound dynamite."

"I don't know how I got pregnant. I mean, I used both the condoms and pregnancy tests I got from the dollar store."

peggy: Uhm, I don't know if I should seriously put this item on hold for the customer who called.
anne: Why not?
peggy: When I asked what name to hold it under they said *spelling it out* h-i-s-c-o-c-k. I asked her to repeate it, and she spelled it out again.
anne: *laughs* ask Ms. Boss lady.
peggy: Hey Ms. Boss lady, should I put this item on hold for the customer? *explains the call again*
josie: ...*gasp* Oh, my. Uh, go ahead and put it on hold. If you don't it could be just my luck that this person comes in and complains that their item wasn't held for them.
*anne and peggy go off, josie looks to me*
josie: heh, did you see the lightbulb go off on top my head when she spelled it out?
me: hehe, yea.
josie: lets just hope that it really was a prank call though.

me: so, what time do you get to go home today?
jeff: five
me: you suck. What time did you start?
jeff: 9:45
me: oh, ok you can go home at five then.
jeff: oh wow, thank you. I'm going to be sore though, I'm not used to standing up for so long.
me: oh?
jeff: yea, I'm used to sitting down and not doing anything.

"Sorry doesn't make my department pretty."

Brian: You want some ice cream?
Stewie: No.
Brian: You want some McDonalds?
Stewie: No.
Brian: You want to take a dump in Mother Maggie's shoes?
Stewie: Yeah.
Brian: Okay, let's go and take a dump in Mother Maggie's shoes.

Mood:  caffeinated
Need more caffeine! I worked friday night till 2am, saturday night till 2am, and today at 7:30am. Waking up was hard! My boss kept going "Sadie, wake up!! You act like you closed last ni... oh, you did.. didn't you?" hehe. Not exactly her exact words but pretty close to it.

I'm bored and I don't know what else to type out. So.. going to torment the kitty. Update later.

Mood:  silly
Went to Gurnee Mills with Ashley. The guy at sbarro gave me this massive slice of pizza, and I was like "How the hell am I supposed to eat this thing?!" Needless to say, I didn't finish it.

Awaiting the new year.
Mood:  chillin'
I cannot wait for the start of the new year. Begining anew with a new life, and better judgement.

Speaking of new things, my brother has a new girlfriend.. or something along those lines. I dunno how long its been going on, or even how close they are, but apparently they've been hanging out for over a month if I had to guess. I've seen them together, and I can tell he likes her. My mom even said he told her (my mom) that he liked this girl. Even seen his car in her driveway. He can't deny that, you could tell it was his car from a mile away. Custom Mini. I like this girl, she's very nice and very pretty. She has a great sense of humor and she's alot closer to his age. She has to at least be 21. I'm hoping this one goes well, I think she's great.

Whoo, I am a busy person lately. I work nearly everyday, and when I am not working my schedule is filled with people who want to hang out. I'm totally psyched!

Monday I got out of work at like 7ish, and bumped into a friends girlfriend Heather. We went out to dinner and a few stores, and got coffee. Chatted and just had a ton of fun, and we are definately going to hang out again. We found out we had so much in common, its actually scary. On Tuesday I went with Audra and her cousin to winterfest down at Navy Pier. After getting hit by what we believed to be a drunk driver. He was driving a nice, shiney BMW and not a scratch on it! Unfortunately, Audra's cousins car now has wings on its bumper. heh. We were more interested in seeing santa and taking our picture with him. We believe santa was a cop underneath all that red and white. He told us specifically what to do after finding out we were hit just recently. Santa-Cop, hehehe.

Yesterday I was invited to go bowling with some girls from work, but by the time Danielle called me the place would have closed by 12, and she didnt have time to get her boyfriend and meet me there. So we figured it wouldnt be worth it to try. Definately will find time to go and hang out with her though. Me and lily need to hang out again since our plans for Tuesday afternoon fell through because she had to go help her sister, or something. I still need to give her the pictures I made for her in my photography class. And tonight, unless plans change, me and Ashley are going to hang out. Probably do the usual: Mall, driving, Oh OH! Crazy nickles is re-opened!! We are so totally going there!!!

Speaking of, she just called. I'm still bumming in my pj's so I'm going to go get dressed. I'll update again later tonight. :)

Mood:  flirty
Weeee! It's going to be a good day. Song for you, cause I'm lazy.

Nazi Halo - Jack off Jill
Take a souvenir and stop your staring
Just cause I'm screaming
Don't mean I'm sharing
Can't keep my mouth shut
if you keep that dress on
You can't negotiate
Not with me this time

you go so low
your fagg*t rainbow
your Nazi Halo
won't save you this time

Bring your IQ and try to understand
Just cause I'm listening
Don't mean we're still friends
Can't fix my problem
You crossed a thin line
You can't just work it out
not with me this time

you go so low
your fagg*t rainbow
your junkie ego
won't save you this time
(x2)

You're so predictable no shadow of doubt
when you are suffering know who sold you out
fuck your opinions
fuck your lack of spine
When you are miserable
Know that I'm just fine

you go so low
your fagg*t rainbow
your junkie ego
won't save you this time
(x3)
