[14 Jan 2005|12:45pm] Guess it's time for the annual update, hehe. Just started the second semester of classes last week. This time I have Office Systems Management (another waste of my time), Income Tax Accounting (because I am a complete idiot and chose to take this as an elective), Text Entry (Keyboarding 2), and Desktop Publishing. Despite having two less classes this time, I already have twice the amount of work. Mostly from Deskstop Publishing. That class has a lot of stuff to do, and it takes a while. I had a birthday recently. Yay for me. I am 26 years ancient now. *cries* I have also taken up bowling again. So not only do I have geek hobbies, I have... well, whatever bowling would be considered. I used to be on a lot of leagues when I was young, but gave it up when I became a teenager and got friends, haha. I bowl on a Thursday Doubles league. Average was 166.. Not sure exactly what it is now, cause it went up this week since I bowled 289. BOO-YA! Considering I have the flu, was doped up on medication, was so nervous that I was shaking and felt like I was gonna faint, the full effect didn't really hit me last night. Now that it is the next day, I am sort of pissed that I missed my chance to get 300. But I get a watch, some pins, and maybe a ring for something or other. So I will have a lot of tacky bling to show off to all my friends who don't give a shit about bowling. Woo! The only other thing I have been doing is working and playing video games. I lead such a hectic life. -_- These are the games I've got since I last updated in August: Star Ocean 3 [ps2] -- finished Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced [gba]-- 75% done... maybe will beat game someday Yu Yu Hakusho Spirit Detectives [gba) -- not sure how far. This game sucks balls. Not even my love of Hiei could get me though it. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas [ps2]-- finished Skies of Arcadia: Legends [gamecube]-- finished Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories [gba]-- finished S game. Halfway through R game. Animal Crossing [gamecube] -- Um.. well, I have upgraded my house a couple times. Baten Kaitos [gamecube] -- finished Tales of Symphonia [gamecube] -- currently playing. 30+ hours into. Lord of the Rings: The Third Age [gamecube] -- Haven't played yet X-men Legends [ps2] -- Haven't played yet. I am such a geek. Damn GameStop for moving into my county! Well?!

[26 Aug 2004|05:24pm] [ mood | Focused ] Hmm, it's been quite a while since I wrote anything on this journal. I've been blogging mostly on MySpace since lots of people I know irl are there. That means I haven't said a lot of whiny, bitchy, gossipy, mean things though. So I decided to post here again for a bit. :) A lot of nothing has happened in the past 5-6 months. Work is slightly different as my boss and I get along OK now. Some of the people that I was friends with at work have stopped having much to do with me. Various reasons why, I suppose, but they are all stupid, heh. Hanging out with really old friends again, on occasion. I have started college again. W00t!! I was bored so I decided to go get another degree, heh. This time it is in Office Systems Technology. That is just secretarial and office administration classes. Mostly easy and boring stuff. I am having to take Keyboarding. That is hilarious. Granted, I never actually had a learn-to-type class, but after taking Word Processing and practically everything else for my Computer Programming degree, needless to say, I know how to type. Fast. So after I did 3 lessons, and my teacher discovered that I type 60 - 90 wpm, she skipped me ahead to the later lessons. Too bad I couldn't just skip the class altogether. My other classes are Text Editing (proofreading), Records Management (filing shit), Professional Development (learning how to act professional), Business Math (my favorite class), and Business Law (law shit, duh. My only semi-difficult class.) A lot of people I know are taking classes so at least I have people to talk to there this time around. Too bad none of them are actually in my classes. My classmates mostly consist of 35+ y/o, overweight, laid off woman who are missing way too many teeth. I also bought a car, which is nice, but makes me have more bills. I am waiting on a couple video games. Star Ocean 3 comes out in a couple days. FINALLY. It seems like this game was supposed to come out last year. I dunno. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas looks kickass. Really, that's it, except for stuff like FFXII and Kingdom Hearts 2 which don't come out till forever from now. Fable sounds interesting, but I don't have an X-Box. Everyone else I know does, so maybe I will get to play it. Well?!

[18 Mar 2004|03:19pm] [ mood | discontent ] We got Dawn of the Dead and Taking Lives, so I will be watching both of those tonight and probably be scared as hell driving home. Wee! I signed up for Netflix yesterday so I hope everything goes well. I noticed that they are shipping 4-6 on my list instead of the first three dvds that I wanted, but then I realized that it was because the first three were a series, the first dvd had a short wait and they didn't want to send them to me out of order. That's nice of them. So by this weekend, I should have Donnie Darko, Fake (the anime movie) and Titus (Alan Cumming, woo!) to watch. I'll be renting the hell out of some anime. It's funny that I signed up for it since I just decided that I am going to FL this year with my sister and I need to save lots of money. I said I was going last year but I didn't. The same will probably happen this time. No matter how fun that week would be, I still can't see myself spending $500 in one week. It's taken almost a year to actually save that much money since I barely make any and have to spend some of it. I could be doing fun stuff all year round instead of saving up for that one thing. I need to use some of my money to go to the gym. I really need to start exercising at least a little. I got too skinny for a while, then once I went on the pill, I regained my appetite and started eating like crazy. So naturally, my body decided to pack on some flab. I suppose I am still skinny, but now I have a gut, heh. Plus, I really need something to do. I have been so bored this past month since me and my bf quit talking. I stayed pissed off most of the last month or two that we dated, but at least I was occupied. I just hate the idea of going to a gym alone. Especially the cheaper one that I would probably have to go to, since it is filled with huge muscular guys. It's not that I am scared of the guys or anything. I just need someone else there that I can bitch to about how much exercising sucks. Well?!

[10 Mar 2004|11:26am] [ mood | Vindicated ] My friend just called and informed me that she will probably be managing the rest of the week because our asshole manager is in jail. BWA HA HA HA! Apparently his wife called her and told her that he was in jail for a broken headlight. WTF? This is my guess at what happened. Manager has one headlight out on his truck. Manager drives around smoking pot all the time. Manager gets pulled over, cop finds pot in the truck. I can't imagine any other reason that Manager would be in JAIL for a broken headlight. Unless he ran his mouth a whole lot or assaulted the cop. His wife is out of town so she can't come bail him out. The most amusing thing about this is that our District Manager is apparently supposed to come up here this week at some point. He isn't going to be happy when he asks for Manager and Friend has to inform him that he is in jail. DM already dislikes him, and M was already in a bit of trouble with PassionOTC money/tickets being missing. So we may have gotten rid of Manager for good now. Yayay! On a lighter note, we are getting Secret Window, so there will be much Depp-ogling tomorrow night. Well?!

[05 Mar 2004|11:46am] [ mood | exhausted ] My picture was on the front page of our local newspaper yesterday. Wee! I really have nothing to say about it other than that. I watched Starsky and Hutch last night. It was teh funny. Despite being a goofy looking mofo, there is just something hot about Owen Wilson. I dunno what it is. We were going to watch Hidalgo, but we didn't start S&H until after midnight. So we decided to catch the movie on Saturday or something. I need to write more in my msas rpg journal but my brain just doesn't want to work lately. All I have are movie times and song lyrics floating around in there currently. I will be so happy when the Passion is gone from our theater. All I have done for a week and a half is repeat the same crap to people every minute. At least I am off today. It will be a really busy night. I have to work all day next Saturday. I am not looking forward to that. Well?!

[01 Mar 2004|10:30pm] I decided to go to eharmony.com out of boredom and do the personality test since I keep seeing those damn commercials on TechTV. Amusingly, they informed me that I do not fit any of their 'rigorously defined profiles' so they can't help me find a match at all. I guess I really am a unique person, hehe. Went to pay phone bill with brother today, then ate chinese for lunch. Apparently, they screwed up our account when we added our niece to the family plan. We have to go sort that out tomorrow. On a random note, Munchos are teh shit. I lurve. Well?!

[01 Mar 2004|11:55am] [ mood | relaxed ] My friend/asst manager finally told the manager that we all hate him. That is extremely amusing and it will be interesting to see how he acts from now on. He was being awfully nice the rest of the night. I actually have today off. Yayayay. The Mary Sue Academy of Suewarts RPG has started again, this time on Livejournal. I couldn't resist. I made a new character for this one because the others were too complicated. My current character, Gabriel Boyd is a Hellsing Stu in Caniculae house. Hopefully, this time everyone won't just disappear because of rl school or whatnot. Well?!

[28 Feb 2004|12:07pm] [ mood | Indignant ] Went to Greenville last night after work. I bought two shirts at American Eagle since they were 70% off. AE shirts for $3.50 a piece. W00t. My friends were making fun of us for even being in there though. I don't care. I have lots of "preppy" clothes, but that doesn't make me a prep. Just like the Hot Topic dress I wore last night doesn't make me a pretentious little goth bitch. I just buy whatever I like that is not over $10. I did make an exception for that dress though. I payed $20 for it. :P An interesting thing happened on the way to Greenville. I saw my boyfriend at the gas station that everyone stops at. My friend pointed him out to me. He was walking out of the store and getting in his brother's truck. My friend and I got out and went inside to make sure that he saw me. It was a silly thing to do, but I was all dressed and made up and looked nice and wanted to make him feel bad. He didn't come back in to talk to me and I know he saw me because my others friends were watching him. So I am considering us officially broken up now. Now I just have to figure out how to get all my shit back without having to call him. I hope seeing me ruined his whole weekend. We were supposed to have our employee meeting this morning at work. The manager never mentioned it and no one wanted to ask him about it since we all hate him, so we all just assumed we weren't having it and didn't show up. He apparently forgot about it anyway since no one called to see why I wasn't there. It's always a bother to have the meeting since he doesn't have anything to say that we don't already know. And we really don't want to hear him bitching. Plus, I hate having to show up there twice in one day. I beat the Quidditch World Cup finally. I still haven't unlocked Bulgaria. Oh well. I did unlock Queerditch Marsh which apparently is the two player game or something. Well?!

[26 Feb 2004|10:59pm] [ mood | *Snarl* ] Just as I thought, my manager got pissed when we made him talk on the phone. God forbid, he actually have to do something at work. He got all defensive when we told him we had been doing everything else. We had to answer the phone every minute and sell tickets at least every 10. Plus, the cleaning people didn't show up this morning because of the snow, so we had to clean the theater along with getting opened up. His ass was an hour late. He said if we couldn't handle the job (aka doing everything, plus his job, apparently) then he'd get someone else to do it. My friend/assistant manager was like 'that's fine with me'. I announced to her really loud that I wish we got manager pay since we do every goddamned thing there. I think he heard me. I hope so. We have to do the same exact thing tomorrow so I hope that the weather is better. It sucks having to give refunds/switch tickets. I finally have a day off on Monday since next week we go back to our regular scheduling. We were going to go out of town again today, despite the snow, but everything closed at 5pm. I read Pet Shop and Fake today. There is only one more volume of Fake. That makes me sad. I hope there be some sex. I already know how it ends, more or less. *points to icon* I want to start collecting this other manga that I saw an ad for. It's called Les Bijour or something. I can't really read the font, heh. It looks very pretty with a similar style to Alichino. Maybe it's the same mangaka. I dunno. The decorating guy (Curtis?) on Straight Plan for the Gay Man is kind of cute. The show wasn't as stupid as I thought it would be, but I don't think I can sit through another hour of it. I have been playing Quidditch World Cup for Gamecube. It's pretty easy and fun, but I am ready to actually finish one World Cup. I think I am almost there. I fight Bulgaria next. I haven't played against them before. I really need another game. I don't have enough room on my memory card to play the The Sims on ps2, and Harvest Moon gets frustrating. I traded FF: Crystal Chronicles in for those two games. FF:CC was horrible. I really need a gameboy player for my gamecube so I can get FFT:Advance, all the Castlevania games, and maybe even that shitty Yu Yu Hakusho game. Well?!

[25 Feb 2004|11:42pm] [ mood | sympathetic ] Today was pretty hectic at work. The whole system for selling advance tickets for Passion is just stupid and irritating. The fact that we have to sell advance tickets at all is stupid and irritating. We NEVER sell advance tickets except for later showings on that same day. Having to deal with people wanting tickets for God-knows-when, having to explain when we are sold out numerous times since everyone in our county is apparently a complete dumbass, keeping track of the people buying for later showings that day, and exchanging the advance passes for real tickets is HELL. At least I work in the mornings so I don't have to deal with as many sold out shows until Saturday. All our 7pm shows are sold out until Sunday. Damn Mel Gibson and his 2 hour long guilt trip. Plus, it is supposed to snow tonight so if it actually does, we are going to have a hundred people call us wondering if they can get refunds, and I won't be able to answer that question. I will just let each and every one of them talk to the manager, because he hates that and I hate him. I went out of town with some friends after work and bought some stuff. I swear the only thing I spend money on anymore is food, gas, and graphic novels. I bought Fake vol. 6, Pet Shop of Horrors vol. 5, and Flame of Recca vol. 4. I really wish Hellsing vol. 2 would hurry the fuck up and be out... and Angel Sanctuary. Hurry up, Viz!! We watched Mystic River the other day. It was decent but I don't think it deserves an Oscar. We are getting Twisted(?) this week so I might end up watching it tomorrow night. I don't think anyone bought a ticket for any movie other than Passion today, and probably won't tomorrow either, so we should be able to preview pretty early. I guess boyfriend and I are definitely broke up. Tomorrow, it will be exactly a week since he has called me last. I guess he thought that he wouldn't call for a while, then I'd feel bad and call to apologise. Ha ha ha. Almost four months dating and still he has learned nothing. If he thinks he is going to call after a week and everything will be fine, then he REALLY doesn't know me. Damn Sagitarius male. I missed Straight Plan for the Gay Man the other day. I wanted to see it. Hopefully, it will repeat sometime soon. Well?!
