First off, I have that bloody "Umbrella" song by Rihanna and Chris Brown stuck in my head. It's annoying.
Second~~I have just finished my little adventure in retail. Thank goodness. I actually felt kind of guilty the last couple of days because they were REALLY short on workers and are practically working everyone to death...that and they were REALLY nice to me the last week, which is odd to say the least.
*they remembered my breaks/lunch
*didn't really care if I was late or not. I came an hour late once ><;;
*gave me complements and encouragement (which they only do if I get a Gap card)
*actually tried to have a decent conversation with me
this was was pretty surprising, but I guess it was mostly due to me being nicer as well (because i want a good exit man!). I helped them cover shifts and generally did really well (I sold Gap cards...several in a week, which is a feat in itself that I haven't done since my first week there wtf)
I was pretty happy the last week there, I might have actually considered staying if the rest of my time there was that nice...I will miss the discounts... :( I wrote a thank you card and one of my managers got teary and sentimental over it. It was pretty cute, she was raving over the walkie how much she liked my card. lol Jenny, I <3 you too. XD
But yeah, some guy actually hit on me on my last day. He was emo and depressed about his girlfriend of several years breaking up with him right before he planned his big trip up to Washington (he's from Fresno Cali) and he thought I was a 16 year old and called me cute. D:
On a different note, I believe I have just entered my first LJ drama thingy. XD I'm more amused about it than anything else. But firstly what is with these really immature, almost hysterically territorial people out there? One critique and they get huffy. That and what is with reaaallyy crappy fanart getting a lot of complements and praise? I'm not trying to be rude myself, but I wonder how some people are even able to post up their stuff when it is only marginally better than a six year old drawing. Is it me? :x Anyways, the drama:
I joined the super_junior community on a whim some weeks ago and while browsing the locked posts, I found some fanart people were raving over. Naturally, I curious to see how good these are. If my face was an emoticon it would have been =/ Her drawings aren't bad...it's just that they weren't anything special. All her chibi drawings of the boys had the same face, expression, pose etc. I can't even tell which one is supposed to be who because they were so similar. The only thing different about the drawiings was the hair and the clothing. The actual style she has is okay (they look like Strawberry Shortcake characters!) but with all the doodles looking the same....I was in the middle of commenting about it when LJ froze up, killed most of my comment and logged me out....but my point was still there with "they all look the same..." She called me a troll. Sigh.
I was going to log in and explain myself, but looking through the rest of the posts, the gal looks like a jerk. She talks mostly about how she has her own opinions and nobody can say anything against her because it's HER journal and how she doesn't particularly work well with fluff comments (omg so cute!) and pure critique (meee 8D). She also mentions several times that she's naturally talented. So yes, I'm probably not even going to bother resonding, but my snarky side reeeaallyyy wants to say "Aw, did my criticism hurt your feelings?" I'm horrible. sigh.
So yes, I have accounting class tomorrow. EW. I don't wanna goooo.
