It's been awhile since I've given a real update, yet again....whatever
Everyday I try to learn more at work. This week though just seemed to drag on...it's really nice to have a job that doesn't recquire you to work weekends though...really like that part! Everyone should come open a checking account with me though because I need the referrals! If you love me you will! ;o) I'm really starting to get along and talk with the girls, which is fun. We were supposed to go to Desperados this weekend, but someone had a family emergency so it was cancelled. Hopefully soon tho!
This weekend did have a lot of fun in it though. Friday night after the day from hell at work, I headed out with Tony and Jeff (and Derek, John and "Bitchface"?). We headed out to the Rhinestone Cowboy where we mostly sat and made fun of the.....special people that made up the place. We were ditched by Derek and crew early, but then later met up with them at Bugsys to hear the last of their kareoking. The night ended with Derek pushing home a shopping cart...congrats, you guys are officially "trash" ;o)
Saturday I slept in...kinda ;o) Came home and napped some more. I met up with Nathalie and Nichole (late, of course) and we headed out to dinner. We ate at Applebees and then headed out to High Kickers. Nichole ended up never showing up to the bar, and we called it a pretty early night. FYI, they have ac ountry line dance to an Irish Jig! Swear to god...they do little knee kick thingies and all...
Sunday was sorority day that was almost messed up because my phone forgot about daylight savings. I assumed that since phones can do so much that it would have changed itself for me, but that was not the case. Needless to say I was almost late. We had SAFE class at 12:30 where we learned how to defend ourselves. The New member meeting, EC meeting CPH meeting and general meeting...all this lasted until 630 or so...then it was Big/Little reveal!!! I guessed right :o) My big is Katie and my grand-big is Jenny....I even have my Asian twin April! I definately got the good famly tree and I'm glad that we have all already gotten to know each other more than others. There is still much more fun to be had.
I think I had more, but I'm tired, and tomorrow starts a whole new week of work, so I better get to bed. Good night all!

-Baltasar Gracian
I'm glad you're home Alorea! Sorry I punched you in the stomach (haha...not really) ;o)
I'd say more, but I'm not feeling too well and it's 3 a.m....so good night.

Well, I passed my teller's exam with a 97% so I get to keep my job! Ha....actually I don't think they would fire you. You would just have to stay in training longer. Today then, is my first day in the bank. I'm nervous, but also excited. I hope I don't mess anything up!
I can't wait for Sunday...I get pinned and then I start to become part of the AST's :o) Yay!
My dreams are like long soap operas and it's so weird...like one ended last week and then the "saga" continued last night...hopefully it doesn't come back again :o/
All I want is for you to stop ignoring me and to call me. Even if you call and tell me you're just figuring things out...whatever...just don't leave me hanging like this. It hurts...a lot. I'm not off just picking another guy up...I don't want that and it won't happen...just call...
I'm off to get ready for the bank now. Later kids.

Distance makes the heart grow fonder...I wish I knew if this was true or not :o/
The new job has been treating me well so far. Training is kind of slow but I've met a few people in the class who help it go by kinda quick. I am just looking forward to getting to my branch. I want to start interacting with the customers instead of a computer screen all day; start building up my referrals so that I can start building up my bonus! Show them what I can do so that hopefully in nine months when I am able to be promoted, I will be!
The only issue about my new job though is that fact that everything they are teaching me in training, when I "shadowed" at my branch, they didn't do any of it. You are supposed to run a calculator tape for your whole shift. If you don't, it is an audit violation...you could lose your bonus at the end of the quarter. While at my branch, not one girl did it. They didn't count their money in front of the vault custodian, hand out referrals, place holds on any checks, keep their drawers locked...I'm sure I could go on. I feel like I'm being placed in the "Oakland Mall" of Charter One banks (My C.R. people will know what this means) and I can't do anything to change it or control it. I can only control what I do. I don't know how to react to this situation since I have always worked in the "Lakeside Mall" of Charter One. We'll see...
My class is going okay. I wish it would end already though. I've been good and have been attending almost every class, so I know what's going on for the most part. Right now I am trying to decide what I am going to take in the spring and summer sesions. I will most likely be taking MTH 122 in the spring and IS in one of the two. I just need to pick out another class. I wish I didn't have so much to make up, but oh well. I want to be out of college sometime in the next 10 years! :o) I want to be that person all dressed in their business clothes, waiting in line at the Starbucks like I saw this morning. One day...
On a side note, I am in LOVE with those little townhouses behind the Einstein Bagels and Starbucks in Downtown Dearborn. I want one so badly!
Another thing I want badly is for you to get over whatever issue you have right now. I wish you would stop telling me to go find someone with a college degree, as if money means the world to me. I don't care that you don't have a college degree; I don't care that you want to work in retail...I DO care that you are happy, and if that is what you want to do, that that is what I want you to do. I don't plan on not having a job...I'd go crazy without something to do so I don't need someone to "take care of me". You enjoy being with me. You KNOW I enjoy being with you. Stop trying to push me away because it isn't going to work. I WANT to be with you. I want to take care of you...I will wait as long as it takes...
Finally, Katie from AST called me today. She said that the sisters decided they want me to join them, so in a few weeks I am going to be a sorority girl! :o) I am pretty excited about that. I am looking forward to making some awesome friends and having some great times in the near (and far) future!
That's all I got. I'm sleepy so I'm off to bed. 6:30 AM comes way too early...
G'night

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses? You've been out riding fences for so long now. You're hard one but I know that you got your reasons. These things that are pleasing you will hurt you somehow. Don't you try the queen of diamonds boy, she'll beat you if she's able. You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet. Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table, but you only want the ones that you can't get.
Deperado oh you ain't getting no younger. Your pain and your hunger are driving you home. And freedom, oh freedom. Well that's just SOME PEOPLE TALKING. Your prison is walking thru this world all alone. Don't your feet get cold in the winter time; the sky won't snow and the sun won't shine. It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day. And you're losing all your high's and lows, ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?
Depreado, why don't you come to your sense. Come down from your fences, open the gate. It might be raining, but there's a rainbow above you. You better let somebody love you, let somebody love you; you better let somebody love you before it's too late...

It's been awhile since I've done an update, but it's my day off, so I finally have some time...
I know who all reads this journal, but you all pretty much know the theme of life already so whatever. If prying eyes read this, that's their perogative.
Work is going better, mainly because, as Sherry told Sarah, I've been very "compliant" the past two weeks. I guess that is what happens when you threaten me with my job. Rosanne was in the store a few days ago. I didn't make the first move, nor did I plan to...I walked by, shook hands with Jim, etc. etc. I waited for her to talk first and then I laid on the charm...but I don't want to do that...I'm not an ass-kisser, nor do I plan on ever turning into one. That may be the "way" to get ahed in life, but I'd rather take the other road called talent and skill. I'm not into talking shit about other people to get ahead of them and screw those that do.
Anywho, I have applied at pretty much every bank, and at Gadzooks. The banks keep calling me, but it is for parttime only, and I can't really live off of a guaranteed 10-15 hours a week. The most promising one seems to be Charter One, aks Citizens Financial...I had two interviews with them adn they should be calling me within the next couple days.
I had a phone interview with the DM of Gadzooks this morning...he seems like a relaly cool guy, but I am kind of scared to go for this one. Basically as long as Tony and Alorea say nice things about me (why wouldn't they?? *wink*) I've got the job. He did tell me though that they are going up for auction, which is scary. There are a couple of companies that want to buy them, plus a private investor group. He said that more than likely the private investor group will get to buy them becaues they want to leave the company as is and just sort of feed off the profits...he asked me to give him until at least Wednesday to get me hired.
This leaves me in a dilema. I don't really want to work at Gadzooks...I want out of retail...the whole shitty ordeal at the Russe has just made me hate it so much. Sure, you get politics wherever you go, but they aren't going to demote you and take away your raise just becase you can't work for 2 hours on a Saturday in the real world. They aren't going to think of bullshit excuses and threaten you and say "In 2 weeks your job is mine" in the real world...I mean it COULD happen, but you'd have to really suck I would think.
I want a grown up job and live a grown up life. I want to get my degree and live independantly. Maybe here...maybe someplace warmer...I just want to be out on my own....maybe with someone else. Who knows...
In other news, the ONE class that I'm taking seems to be going pretty well. I am understanding it and keeping up on the homework...I'm actually pretty proud of myself...if only i could have figured out 4 years ago that I wanted to major in bsiness...such is life though I guess. I'll be done in another 4 years..ha. Then I can be a sugar mama...lol.
Well, it's 5 pm and I'm still in my PJ's, so I think I'll go and shower up and put on some real clothes for awhile. Wish me luck on my job(s)!
Later kids.

Yawn....I'm so tired. I had the day off today...I planned on doing all my laundry and getting my room cleaned since we're having Christmas this year, but nope! I slept until 2, went to Quizno's for lunch, then came home and slept/watched TV some more. It's now 7:30ish and I just started laundry.
I hate, Hate, HATE when people throw my wet laundry on top of the dryer and don't tell me about it. Their excuse? They don't know whether it can be dried or not so they leave it for me...well then TELL ME ABOUT IT!!! Don't just let it sit there for a week! You have no ruined some of my shirts because the red dye bled on to my pink shirts, leaving them spotted...thanks! Then they wonder why I'm in a bad mood when I'm home...
I finished my shopping yesterday....finished it off with getting someone special something really nice...I hope they like it...
I was watching the news today and they reported a story and I knew the person! Too bad it wasn't a good story (are there ever good stories on the news anymore?) I used to play the bells at church and our director was a Patty Dutch...well, this past week she was missing from work, and papers were piling up on her porch so the neigbors called the police. Turns out she killed her mom by hitting her with a hatchet 7 or so times, then killed herself with exhaust fumes in the garage...maybe God told her to do it..ha...anyways, that's bad and maybe that's why I don't go to church...crazy people with crazy thoughts :o/
Life has been just plain stressful lately and I hate it. If I have to hear "because that's company policy" one more time, I'm going to scream. Company policy sucks, because they apparently don't believe in things like recycling or allowing their managers to further their education. I just want to get to that place where life moves smoothly...school, work and relationships just work like they're supposed to...there's no drama; fighting; or tears...I just want happiness, is that so hard?
Well, laundry is buzzing, and Alorea should be calling me soon, so I gots to go. So much to do!

You Are the Loyalist |
6
You have strong relationships and are intensely loyal.
People find you easy to love and care for.
You like your world to be stable and secure, no surprises.
You're cautious. You prefer your inner circle to the outside world.

So it's been a stressful couple of weeks...Tony left work, Mary left work (not so stressful, but news none the less), Alorea left work, and now I'm left with Don and Sarah. Don't get me wrong, Sarah and I are getting along very well as of late, it's just the other one we're having issues with. Hopefully Roseanne will come thru for us and actually help us out...isn't that what a DM is for.
We've had a couple of parties so far and I had a ton of fun at the first one. I love partyingw ith my CR girls. The second...well...we won't get into that one. I'm done dissecting it and I'm halfway over it, so I won't drudge up the shitty details.
Classes are almost over thank god. I have finals next week. I hope I do well. I just want to be out of school and making good money...be someones sugar mama *wink*
Went to Somerset yesterday with Alorea and saw the new Polo...I'm sorry..."Ralph Lauren" store...what a ghost town. The decorating is beautiful but the were like 2 customers? Granted it was a Monday, but I still expected more customers...I was afraid to touch anything in the store for fear they would be on me in a second. After the mall we went to Cantina for dinner and then to JoAnn fabrics. We got back to her house and watched a lil TV and then I went and hung out with the boy. I dunno...
This entry is so jumpy but that is how I feel right now. I can't stay focused on one thing. My mind is working overtime.
I never asked anything more than your loyalty and love...is that so much?
It's my day off but I might head up to work and see what's going on up there...get some shit done...It seems they (at least Sandy ;o]) are going crazy without me...
later.

Blah. It's my day off and I feel like poo. I've just been kind of relaxing and watching TV...I'd rather be at work. I hate being hourly. I hate not being able to help out more. We have a HUGE visit next week, yet for the most part all I can do is sit back and watch while Alorea and Tony do most of the work and it makes me feel sooo bad. They tell me I just have to make the most of the time I am at work, but it never feels like I do enough. I know though, that if I go up there now, I won't be allowed to do anything because I can't clock in...ARRRGHHHH the frusteration :o(
School i sstressing me out lately too...I went to drop my statistics class Tuesday, only to find out that I have a hold on my account. I knew I had one, and I thought it was $1,600, the amount of my tuition I have left to owe....boy was I wrong! I actually owe $3,600!!!! From what you might ask? They cancelled my financial aid because they say they never got a form I was supposed to turn into them, which I actually did turn in. In fact, I sat there while the lady explained to me what it meant and she watched while I signed it and then she took it and siadshe would take care of it for me! After yelling on the phone for 45 minutes, they said they found my form, but "aren't sure what they can do about it now, because their books are closed". I say they better fix it, becuase it wasn't MY fault THEY messed up! I have to register for classes on Tuesday! I don't have 3,600 dollars to give to them right now. That's why I ACCEPTED my financial aid. DUH! My mom told me to go in there and demand they lift my hold so that I can register on Tuesday..I had mentioned it to the lady on the phone, and she said they might be able to do it...well they better!!!
If those aren't enough....nevermind...I won't go into that.
Bottom line is that there are a million thoughts and feelings and everything else going thru my head. The past couple nights I haven't slept very well and it's left me with a horrible neck and back ache. Doubtful that tings are going to get any better anytime soon...Next week starts the "blackout season" in retail, so no room for a vacation until after January...then I won't have time because I'll be taking 4-5 classes and still working full time. Which classes might you ask? Spanish 114, Managerial Accounting, Macro Economics, Group Dynamics and Linear Programming. Fun fun fun!
I dunno.
All I want is for you to be happy, and whatever that is, is fine with me.
I've been listening to Jamie Cullom nonstop. I love that mean and he is so freakin cute. I'd marry him if he knew I was alive ;o)
These are the day that I've been missing Give me the taste, give me the joy of summer wine These are the days that bring new meaning I feel the stillness of the sun and I feel fine
Sometimes when the nights are closing ugly I remember you and I start to smile Even though now you don't want to know me I get on by; and I go the extra mile
These are the times of love and meaning Eyes of the heart melted away and found the light These are the days of endless dreaming Troubles of life floating away like a bird in flight
These are the days These are the days These are the day!
I thought you said our love would last forever Even that the tears would end for good I told ya that we'd get thru any weather Maybe that didn't work out, but we did the best we could
These are the day that I've been missing Give me the taste, give me the joy of summer wine These are the days that bring new meaning I feel the stillness of the sun and I feel fine

So I've finished the application and I am sitting at the screen that asks me for credit card information for the application fee and I am trying to decide whether to put it in or not....if I get in, it's a big move...a good one for sure, but a BIG one...
So here I sit...debating in my head..click continue and maybe start an awesome life in a better state? Or hit cancel and wonder what might have been?
Decisions...

What alcohol? It tastes like lemons :o)
Tonite I experienced Waves $1.00 beer night. I had a pretty good time...a black cover band of all the R&B artists and a bunch of drunk people. What more could I ask for?
Whendid I NOT have a good time? When someone's friend J decided to continuously hit on me, and offer to drive me to the Boatworks bar, only to try to convince me to go to his house instead. The hitting on me part I don't mind...I like when guys think I'm hot or cute or whatever, but No, I will not go to your house with you and "get to know you". I don't care if at the moment I don't have a boyfriend and you dont have a girlfriend...it isn't happening. You can buy me all the shots and beer you want, you still aren't going to get me to your house. Byt thanks for the drinks!
So it was Waves, then Boatworks (where J ran away) and then Coney Island where it was apparently goth night. Had a good dinner though...thanks Al!
So minus the big blond haired guy kissing me and trying to get me to his house, I had a great time. We need to go out more often! :o)
Now off to bed I go...long day of work tomorrow...night!

Well I had big plans today...it's my day off so I wanted to get all my errands done so I could have a worry free week. Yeah...that idea left the minute I woke up and went outside. Looks are definitely deceiving...all sunny and beautiful with no clouds in the sky; then you walk out and BAM! 50 some degree weather. So back in the house and I went and back into bed under my warm covers where I proceeded to watch TV all morning/afternoon.
I finally ventured out to get some lunch and now here I sit staring at some homework I need to do for my class tonight, but I really don't have the motivation to do it. I know I need to get thru classes and get a degree and whatnot, but it's so hard! I chose my classes for next semester also...Managerial and Cost Accounting, Group Dynamics and Communication, Linear Programming, Principles of Macroeconomics, and Intro to Spanish. Yes...five classes. It's going to be crazy, but I need to get thru school and get it over with....I still have about 5 classes after these ones that I need to complete before I can even think of applying to the Business School at OU or UA. Blah.
So tomorrow before work I am meeting with my ex (ex-, ex-) boyfriend at Starbucks. He texted me this morning and asked if I wanted to meet him. I figure why not? I'm kind of nervous though...I haven't talked/seen him in...a year I think? I doubt it's anything like THAT...he has a girlfriend and all. We'll see how it goes...
This isn't even the worst of the weather yet and I am already hating it...it's going to be one looooong winter...maybe I'll get to some warm weather soon...
I guess I better go finish up that homework now. No more delaying...

Sooooo coooollllddddd :o(
I've decided I need to start reading more. In the most recent years, I have spent a ton of money buying books only for them to sit on my bookshelf unread. It has sort of gotten to the point where I don't know what to start with. It's not a big worry...I'm sure I'll figure it out somehow.
In other news, I worked yesterday (like pretty much every other day) and an old friend of mine came shopping in the store today. Now, I had "run into" this person while driving one night also, so I was updated a little on her life, but to see it in real life was weird. Lindsay was...one year younger than me in school. We were both in the Key Club..went to Chicago, Florida, various places in Michigan, and she always seemed like a "good girl" to me. After I graduated, we kept in touch a bit but not enough because we stopped talking eventually. So now, 3 years later about, we run into each other again and I find out she has a baby, is married and lives in Germany. I'm not jealous; not disgusted; not upset...I don't know..it's just weird to think of her with a baby and married...it makes me wonder if I am behind in the times, or if she is ahead...and I haven't even found a guy yet (well...nevermind)...blah.
I want a vacation. I want to go someplace warm annnnnd maybe not come back. Just live life day to day. Drive around, explore....yeah...

Make up your mind take me or leave me I'll be doing fine with or without you I'm wasting my time letting you deceive me The truth is in your eyes but I deny what I see Time and time again
I let you get back under my skin I let you break me down again I let you get close way too close But i see through it
You give me that smile and I gave in And you knew that I would Time and time again you pulled me in Just to give me up, give me up again
What is a dream if it doesn't come true I believe I'll find love but will it be with you I never would have thought that such a pretty little face could Offer me so much and take all that I had Well I want it back
Emo what? Not me. Heh. Next thing you know TBS will be playing in my car nonstop replacing the Jonny Lang CD that has been doing that.
Off to get ready for work I go...

Try every single day, I know you're worth the wait Am I getting closer or further away Somewhere behind your eyes, I know my answer lies But you won't release it, I wish you would try To open up and let me see inside ------------------- No, there's nothing you can say That's ever gonna make me change I'll always feel this way
Jonny Lang is an awesome artist...I can't wait to see him on Saturday!
Let's see....in other news, I am still taking my statistics class...the teacher sucks. I never seem to wake up on time, so I am always like 15 minutes late, and he likes to hand out homework assignments first thing in class. Well, I emailed him a couple of times to get the assignments, and ti find out if there is a SI class for this one, beacuse I'd like to pass the class, and this past time he told me to stop bothering him with this...I'm sorry I am trying to pass your class...geeze...and he STILL didn't answer my question on if there is a SI for the class, but whatever...I'm not going to "bother" him anymore...sheesh...
I went tanning tonight. It was so warm and nice. Everyone seems to be happy that fall is here, but I'm dreading it...I can't stand the cold weather...I just want to move far away from winter and snow. I just can't seem to save the money for it! We'll see what happens in the next year or so...
Do you ever look at people and wonder what brought them together? Girls drag their guys into our store all the time and sometimes I just look at them and ask "why are you with her/him?" Not outloud of course, but if some of these girls can find guys, then what's my problem? I wish I knew so I could fix it...blah.
Well, unfortunately I got hooked on the Real World and some show that is on after it, and they are replaying it from yesterday, so I am going to go see what I missed. Then it's off to statistics I go...wish me luck!

I'm so close to giving up on my statistics class. I can't understand the teacher one bit and when I ask a question he can't seem to understand me either, so it's a lose/lose situation...Yesterday I just sat there in class and stared at him, hoping that if I stared hard enough, the words would come out clearer, but they didn't..the only thing that is going to save me is the book I think...hopefully...I've always given up on the hard things though, I just don't want to do that this time...so I guess I'll keep ontruckin thru the class and see what I get on the first exam...
What's with the weather? It's so cold...it makes me so sad :o( I want summer back...
Well I guess I'll go find something to eat...I think I have some chinese left, though Mexican (REAL Mexican, not taco bell!!!) sounds delightful right now...maybe when I get some free time I'll learn how to cook...
Adios.
