i think it's tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime for an updatey!
hi y'all. i'm sitting here on my living room couch, listening to the traffic along bathurst and the ticking clock on the wall. the day has started and i'm waking up to it.
today i'm working a mall. and that is fantastic. see, when you're in a mall, 3 or 4 things are awesome. one, you're not cold (generally speaking.) two, you get to sit down all day. three, we need to look professional which means i get to dress up like a grown-up lady and that is always so fun. also, my ass looks fantastic in my grown-up pants. and finally, the day passes faster than anything i've ever seen, until that last hour rolls around, of course.
but it's all good fun. it also means i get to NOT wake up at 9 or whatever. which is always good. and i still get up early-ish (i don't sleep till the absolute latest i could, which is 1.30) so i feel very awake and satisfied and like i have a hold on the day when i get to work. except last time when i woke up at the time i was supposed to be at the mall. but that's another story altogether.
in other news, we've decided to take the train to BC for christmas and i am so gleeful. for three days i'm going to be chillin out with my toddly guy on train that traverses the entire country. i'm extremely excited for the mountain parts. and for the whole thing in general, really. yay! train!
so i woke up on saturday morning to check my bank account. i thought i had something of 30$ in there. i wanted to make my boy some eggies for breakfast. however, when i check my account, i did NOT have $30 i had -$250!! apparently when you switch to part-time studies you enter into repayment status, which i didn't know, and you're supposed to start paying them $230 a month. there's a big but here. i never signed a form, nor did i give any other sort of authorization for them to take money out of my account. which means they stole from me. illegally. so, tomorrow (when i don't have to worry about working and i have all the day to be on the phone) i'ma phone them and not get off the phone until this is resolved. and by resolved, i mean i need to hear the words "yes, we'll give you your money back." assholes. it really makes no sense. i mean, for the kids who need to be working to be paying for school and everything, and so they need to be in part-time, they have to also be paying over 200$ a month to loans. that all around just doesn't make sense and makes me realise that poor kids just can't go to school.
i have to decide if i'm going back or not. i want to. i want to finish my degree. but now i don't know if i can. the jerks.
hmmmmmmmmm what else.. todd is fantastic. i don't know how it's possible but every morning i wake up feeling his warmth beside me and i look at his adorable sleeping face and i realise i'm more in love with him than i was the day before. it's just.. every little thing he does (from the way he plays with his hair, to the way he shakes a silly thought out of his head before he kisses me) just makes me want to squeal (which i usually do) and to search out all the beautiful little things in the world and give them all to him. cuz he deserves so much more than that. he's perfect. without question, he's the most beautiful person in the world to me and i am the luckiest girl on this planet.
so, life in general is awesome. money sucks, but it always does and after crying about it on saturday i think i'm back to being in love with love and life. i have some big decisions to make about school but i'm sure whatever i end up doing, i'll be happy. i can't not be when every nite i sleep in the arms of a man who fits perfectly beside me like a puzzle piece. and when the sun rises each morning and the world keeps turning. it's just.. nothing bad lasts for long. life is too good for all the bad there can be.
that's it. morning ramblings from a pyjama'd girl. *grin*
love, hugs and tick-tocks, kiddos.
