I know I said I wouldn't post anymore....
Well, I've given into temptation, especially after this exciting news I've just recieved. More on that later...
Whats been new for the Rob. Well, for most of my good friends, they already know bout Jennie. Rob is actually sort of dating someone. Shocking to say the least because I'm not known for dating...ever. In fact, to be quite honest, I believe this is my first time really "dating" someone. I don't think anything I've ever done before could constitute as dating. Jennie is this cool ass chick I met in my English 1102 class that I was in for roughly 2 months. I stopped going because I couldn't handle reading all the garbage I was reading and trying to grasp the information and write about it. I had too much on my plate at the time, atleast for my feeble mind. Anyway, she sat next to me for the most part, but we only talked once or twice. So I found her on here one day, and we've been talking and hanging out since. Its been really cool. I really dig her : -p Though, (and again, as most of my good friends already know) I'm trying not to rush into things because my track record when trying to do things quickly, things never really work out. So, taking things nice and slow, and seeing where they go.
School could be alot better. This is my first time juggling a real job besides soccer refereeing and work. Soccer refereeing was never bad because it would only be a few nights a week, for about 3 to 4 hours I'd be busy. Blockbuster, on the other hand, is ALOT more hours than anything I've ever been used to. I think I'm handling it alright, because to be honest I'm doing the same amount of work and just about the same effort as without a job. But yeah, school is going alright. I always seem to be more outgoing at the end of the semester...which sucks, because I'd like to answer more questions and pose more questions, but my fear of being wrong tends to draw me to stay quiet; until I'm comfortable.
Karate is going well. I'm on my way to my 3rd strip on the white belt. I'll feel very good when I reach green belt status. I'm tired of the beginner belt that I've had for over a year now.
So, to the main point of the post...Theres been talks about me becoming a manager at my store. Mainly because the girl that we just hired before Wilma was supposed to be in line for the job, being that she was experienced, although had been out of the Blockbuster world for a few years. Well, unfortunately (for her I guess) shes not very reliable, among other things. Therefore, considering that I'm very reliable, I do a very good job, and I'm very good with customer relations, I've been offered the job as shiftleader/manager. There was nothing concrete before today. Sort of talks from one of the other manager (Stan) saying he's pushing for me because he thinks I'm such a good employee and such, and also hearing it from Becca kind of confirmed to me that I might really be considered. Today when I came in, Janelle, the store manager, offered me the job. And I turned it down....

no, duh. I took it of course. I'm a little nervous because of such a responsibility, but I'm like...feeling so proud that I've actually got this job I got on my own after working really hard to find one, and within 7 months of working there I'm going to be a manager. It's a great feeling. Some great things actually happening for once...which scares me, because when something great is happening, something bad is bound to turn up...
so yeah : -)
