Uuhhhhh !

Hello everyone.........................

Tonite was great in many ways. Almost all of my customers were nice and tipped me fat. I even had some friends pay me a visit. I made over a hundred dollars tonite, and I didn't really even break a sweat. I can't complain about that.

So why am I so pissed? My boss is anal.

Today before I started my shift, he decided to tell me that someone from the corporate office complained about me because they had a poor dining experience. Basically, they didn't have enough cheese sauce for the fondue and at the time I was told I had to charge them 5 bucks extra for it, and they didn't wanna pay the $5 charge. Plus when I was trying to ring it up, I couldn't find the button to ring it up. While this was going on, I remember asking this manager to help me and he told me to ask someone else because he was busy, and no one else could help me. I was doing everything in my power at the time to help the customers.

I explained this to him, but he still insisted that I need to "take ownership" of this issue, which was his way of telling me that I need to admit that this was ALL my fault. He's the one that was too busy to help me at the time. He coulda just helped me and this woulda never happened.I can't believe that he was actually  gonna write me up over this. ALL over fondue sauce. C'mon now..... its not like I cussed at the customers. Everything else was fine. Their food came out on time and I was very nice to them. I came SOOOO close to taking off my apron and walking out the door. I am amazed that I was able to make so much money tonite, because I started my shift in a bad mood.

Okay, I feel better now. Sigh........

My little love update

Hello Everyone,

I am so glad I have this journal. I kinda feel like shit right now and the weather is SOOOO not helping either. Remember that entry about my little love dilemma on Feb 18th? Well I am here to update.

I told Alex( the guy I was seeing) that it would be better if we didn't see each other anymore. I've been out with him four times, and I just ultimately don't feel that strong spark. Plus, I am moving to Europe in a few months and don't have the time to start getting involved with anyone. I am sad because I like him. I wonder if I did the right thing.

And the guy who I have liked for a while and wish I could hang out with again? I decided to lose his number and just get over it. I mean, he used to call me but that was a while ago. He has no idea what I think about him, and I am gonna keep it that way.

Today the weather was horrible and I had to deal with AO HELL. (AOL) Basically, when I bought my Dell laptop I was given 6 months of free AOL service. But I am still getting charged because I am not a new customer. They make me soooo mad !!!! I have been with them for over 4 years and can't wait to disconnect them !!!

Okay, I've vented enough. Hopefully I'll be more chipper tommorow.

I just wanna get this over with !!!

Hello everyone,

Well, I am relaxed right now cuz I slept in till noon, and then proceeded to watch my fave tv shows. I only had one class at 6pm so I had the whole day to be lazy :)

The weather sucked, but I knew it was gonna be rainy and cold. Nasty weather kinda makes me feel down. I really miss the sunshine and warmth. I am tired of having to wear my big coat all the time. AAAARRRGG !!!

I have a lot of homework to do tonite since I put it off all day. I am just frustrated with the fact that I still have to go to school. That is how tired and worn out I am. What's sad is that someday I'll be wishing I was a college student again. As they say, the grass is always greener on the other side. While I was in the business tutoring center, the advisor gave me an invitation to the Fairmont Hotel for a dinner for all business students. At that dinner, we bring our resumes and talk to representatives from various corporations that are hiring. That seems like a good opportunity, ESPECIALLY since I need a job. I plan on traveling in the summer, so I hope that they consider hiring me in the fall or next year.

Speaking of graduating, I can't wait to have a place to myself. Don't get me wrong, I like my roommate. She's nice, condsiderate and she's someone I'd hang out and be friends with. BUT,  I'd rather live alone so I don't have to worry about being so polite and considerate. I can't wait to have my own queen sized bed AND my own bathroom.

What else? Some guy in the business center started talking to me and while we were having a conversation some girl he was talking to earlier looked me up and down. Okay, WTF?? All I was doing was having a conversation. OMG. Nothing wrong with talking, last time I checked.

Okay, that pretty much is all I have to say for today. Remember: People may forget what you say or do, but people always remember how you made them feel.(Eleanor Roosevelt)

Pretty Nice Day

Hello my lovelies.............

The weather man predicted rain for today, and thankfully it didn't !!!! I practiced for my bellydance routine and I hope that it goes well on Tuesday.

I also went to the library and got a little extra studying done, cuz I forgot that my first marketing midterm is NEXT THURSDAY !! On my way there, I ran into one of the guys that works at the Telecommunications office and helped us with our phone problems when I lived in the dorms. His wife is a graduating senior in Marketing like me and they come and visit me at Red Lobster all the time. It was nice catching up.

At the library I sat outside and ate some hot soup. It was nice because it wasn't too cold and I got some time to think. I've had a lot on my mind lately and it was nice to just have some thinking time.

On my way to my bellydance class I went to the cafe and got a browniepie. I just couldn't resist that urge for chocolate. I've been eating a lot of chocolate lately.

Well, thats it for now. I know it wasn't anything drastic, but it was these little things put together that made my day turn out nice. Hope y'all had a nice day :)

Not As Bad as I thought

Hello everyone :)

Remember how I told you that I hate working Sundays? Well, I worked last night and though I had a couple of ghetto tables, people were really nice for the most part and tipped well. I was shocked!! In addition to that, I got taken off the floor early. Plus, 2 different tables that had a birthday party left some birthday cake for us. I was in the kitchen stuffing my face. Hey, I don't get free cake everyday you know.

I went to the library today and did some studying, and I ran into Alex so we talked for a while.

I also have a rehearsal tommorow for my performance for Foreign Language Week. A bunch of us will be doing different cultural performances and I will be doing Egyptian Bellydance again. This time I will do the doubleveil.

Anywho, I better type up my Spanish paper. Bye Bye for now :)
