I had a quiz in history. 8/10 biotches lol. I forgot what A.D. stood for and meant(anno Dimini “In the Year of Our Lord) Stupid me didn’t even write it down. I should have known better, my teacher, Mr. Sanderberg is subliminally trying to teach us Latin, among other things. I’m convinced he is a conservative democrat, but I’m not entirely sure. I enjoy deciphering the political stance of my teachers. At DC it wasn’t even a question, here its much more fun. In first aid we worked with the mannequins, also known as “Annie”. They are quite possibly the creepiest wanna be humans out there. We each got this latex face for our dummies so we’d have a clean surface to practice mouth to mouth. I almost got paired up with the tall creepy guy again. I still don’t understand why he doesn’t go with his g/f. The actual “Rescue breathing” practice part of it was embarrassing; having to practically make out with a mannequin, in front of the class no less. After class I found Rachael sitting under some tree (tree hugger lol). We sat there and made fun of random people. We saw Justin Gott. He is always wearing sandals/flip flops with blue jeans. Thats like one of my ultimate pet peaves with guys. On my way to the car I ran into Brittany Clarke. She is soo annoyng, she treated me like some long lost best friend when I walked past here. Then there I was, stuck talking with her about lame things like her hair color and who’d she had seen from DC on campus. I don’t mind hearing that from friends, its fine. But to hear her ramble on about who she has in every class and who she has seen and who she hasn’t was brain numbing. What was the point of it? Did I need to congratulate her for seeing the most DC people? Or for being smart enough to remember names and faces and reciting them to someone who doesn’t even ask? Finally I told her I needed to go. If I see her again, I’m running in the other direction.
I went to Panera Bread for lunch. When I asked for a cheese danish the lady acted like I was mentally incompetent and informed me that they were in fact a “pastry” and they don’t carry cheese danishes. Well sorrieeee for not being acquainted with every pastry known to man. I wanted to say, “Just give me the damn danish looking one there on the end.” Bah...people need to learn something called “customer service.” How the heck do these people find jobs and I can’t? When I go to interviews I’m like sweeter than Jasara and Erin combined and always emphasize the importance of the customers to me. Yet they always hire idiots like those. How the heck do these people get their jobs, let alone keep them?
Around 2 that afternoon, my mom called and said that she had just spoken with the owner of Country Lane and that she would be calling me to ask if I’d like to come in for a job interview. Apparently one of their girls just quit. Sure enough, the owner called like an hour later and asked if I’d like to come in for a job interview. You got to remember I turned this application in back in early June, if not late May. I never expected to get a call back. She asked if I could come in at 2:15 the next day, and I said sure.
I had a dentist appointment that afternoon too. I ended up getting along with the dental hygienist quite well. Usually I’m bored to pieces, but this lady was a huge movie buff like me. So when she wasn’t cleaning my teeth we talked about movies. I wanted to hug her when she agreed that War of the Worlds pretty much sucked. Epper from “Epper and Ropert” had the same opinion for the movie I have, when he discussed the major summer movies on the show the other day. Yay I’m not the only one. She also channeled my hate for Steven Spielberg. So overrated in my opinion. She suggested a bunch of movies I needed to see, and vice versa. It was funny because at first she thought I had veneers on my teeth. Ha! The one thing I am proud of my looks is my teeth, it’s the one thing I’ve got going for me. But just when I thought everything was hunky dorry, she told me I was beginning to get a cavity in one of my teeth. Then the dentist confirmed it. First cavity ever. Its in the same tooth that has been bothering me for years. Almost every time I go to the dentist, I asked the lady if I there was a problem there, and every time she told me it was fine. Well they have a bunch of new employees, and the lady I got actually knew what she was doing. Bah, I bet they could have stopped this with more sealant along time ago. Also they’re harping on me about getting my wisdom teeth out O_O. Maybe I’ll wait until Christmas Break or summer or something. And if that wasn’t enough, they said I have been “scrubbing” while I brush, so much so that my tooth enamel in the back is starting to erode. They said they usually see this sort of thing in people much older. Hmm.. For having such perfect looking teeth I sure do have a lot of problems :-\. When the hygienist was done, she gave me an odd look and said “Omg you look like Natalie Portman!” Ha, I wish. I’d kill to look like her.
After I got home I helped my dad clean house and then I washed my car. While I was drying it off in the garage, this strange car pulls up in front of our house. I was scared at first because I was alone and my dad was inside taking a shower. After a few seconds I realized that it was Kevin and Becky. Kevin and my dad were like best friends back in the day. We thought they were coming like on Thursday so it took me quite by surprise. That night we ate at Don Cucos b/c its cheap, easy and fast. Then we went to coldstones and I actually got ice cream. We didn’t get home until 10 and I was freaking out because I still needed to take a shower and practice my speech again. I didn’t want to wake anyone up, so I went to the garage to practice my speech. I changed some things around a bit to make it better, and in doing so it took me that much longer to re-learn the new version. So I was out in the hot garage until 1:30 in the morning.
