its the first day of school. not exactly mine first first - a first for the fall term. i was pretty impressed by myself for surviving the summer term (2 months of "crash" courses), after i had like ..... stopped school for about 3 yrs? whao.. that makes me sounds so old. anyway, first day of class is not too bad especially when i had only an hour half of a class for the day. haha.. pretty much i am still relaxed.
as for my one month vacation that ended yesterday *sob sob.. (i wish it can be longer) i dont seem to be doing much fun. most time spending workin at kino, catching on the olympic fever and watching jap dramas (i hv nt watch gokusen 3 although i keep saying that i wanna watch it, instead i end up watching puzzle, nobuta wo produce, kurosagi and etc.) however i still had my fair share of fun at kino, if i can exclude the days where i start feeling a drag going to work and had couple of lateness and some near miss of been late. and how can i forget that the need to pay the shortages. damn. i was praying not to make any mistakes cos i do not wish to be like my colleague who works on weekdays too during vacations and ended up paying back close to 3 figures sum of shortages. too bad i was cursed too. fortunately, (still crossing my fingers - think will continue to cross it till the day i hand in the white envelope - that i should probably take a leaf from the whimpy kid's diary and tape my fingers together) my wasnt that bad, only one red note. that was what i thought that day when i signed the acknowledgement form. i will definitely not forget that day where i argue about paying the 2 cents. its not that i cant afford it, it is a matter of principles.
despite all the slight unfairness system, i managed to go about it and remain happy. and yes, in any case anyone asking me will i quit anytime soon. no! i will not and i do not regret the day when i reject my sis's kind offer of working as a temp admin at the company she was working for that time. it was a great offer with an extra dollar per hr compared to mine current job. plus i will have the weekend off without making sacrifices my relaxing weekdays. plus working at a bookstore has it advantages too. the discount aside, i get to know what are the bestseller and take a peek or more into it as well. if anyone is looking for a light hearted good read, should try the whimpy kid's diary (the first book - red). it is fantastic!
back to school. during summer i decided to join the floorball team. guess what during the first open house, it was a failure. pathetic sight. only 3 new members (including me) came for the try-outs. 2 other members are the person-in-charge (-pic-) and the ex-member. but i still keep my hopes high. on that day i kind of talk too much and said yes i know how to use photoshop and i can help with the recruitment poster. didnt knew i will regret a little after that. (i dont like many attention, u know =P) yes, i really do enjoy being able to do what i'm pretty good at and that i do hv high expectation that almost everyone will be impressed by the poster i designed. however, as soon as the holiday started and my horrible work schedule starts. and not to mention the -pic-. i know some of my actions is like escaping from responsibility but i just couldnt stand some the action she did. it bothers me. maybe i am also a person who dont like to be push around.
to be contd...
