The Northern.

Alexisonfire came out with a new album June 23. I think I'm in love. 

So this week has been surprisingly eventful. Usually, summer school prevents me from going out as much as I'd like to. Well, that and the fact that I was literally broke for 2-3 weeks. 

I had a 3-day week for summer school. Thank God. Right when I finished school, I hung out with a friend who I haven't seen in 3-4 months. We had a major catch-up session. 8 hours at the mall. All we bought was food. It was quite epic. Aaaand, he's gonna teach me guitar. :D

The day after that, I hung out with 2 of my friends to see the new Transformers movie. I personally didn't really enjoy it. It dragged on too long and the story line was kind of... obvious. Oh well. 

Yesterday, I had an accidental "me" day. I went downtown at around 12-1 to get a haircut. The stylist was such a perfectionist that it took about an hour to get my hair cut. I really like it. It's all thin and layered and such. Just like how I had it in Japan.  I had to make an appointment at the mac store to get my ipod fixed. Since my hair cut took a little long and I was late by 20 minutes. So I had to wait another hour for the next appointment. In that time, I got a bunch of shopping done. It was awesome. So I went to the mac store and it took... about an hour for the genius guy to figure out that the battery was defective and I had to get a new one. Oh well, I got a new ipod touch. So... overall, I spent 7-8 hours by myself. It was pretty awesome. I had some time to relax. 

And... that's about it for events. I'm planning to tell my boss today that I'm quitting. As in... 2 weeks notice. I haven't gotten a new job but.. I just can't stand working there anymore. Too much unnecessary stress. I think I need some relaxation time anyway. So maybe a jobless period wouldn't be so bad. I just don't know what I'm going to say.. or when to say it. I think I'll mention to her before my shift starts that I have something to tell her... or something like that. I still want to be on good terms with my boss... she's a nice person. That's probably why I'm a little scared of how she'll react when I tell her. Maybe I'll aim for a sympathy approach. haha.

Anyways... I think I'm gonna get ready to hang out with my friend. 

The End.

Wordkill.

It's a Saturday afternoon and I'm so very bored, while at the same time way too lazy to do work. 

I was awakened by IKEA calling me at 10:30 in the morning. They asked if I could work an 8 hour shift... I have one tomorrow. So I refused.

I haven't had my coffee yet and I have a slight headache (resulting from lack of caffeine). I figured I'd just write a blog entry because I haven't been really doing that lately (with exception to the short one I wrote prior to this one).. and it wastes time. 

Plans were ruined yesterday so I just stayed at home, bored. I've been reading a few chapters of Just Listen. And I've watched a combination of movies and dramas. I've been avoiding actual work so my room is still a mess. I'm sure a nice cup of coffee will hopefully give me more energy to do something worthwhile. 

So I have started the search for a new job. I have so far only applied to two places. I think I'll do another search this week. I had to remake my resume since indesign kinda... can't open my old one. My new resume is basically an improvement of my old one. Same alignment, heading. Just changed the fonts and heading. Take a look!

Resume 1.

New & Improved resume 2. 

I got an email from my school about working for a newspaper at my school. Maybe I'll look into that. I have some experience with print (yearbook) so maybe I can be of some help. Oh, I forgot to mention, I kind of have a design job. Well, basically my friend's uncle works for a design firm and he's asking for our help in doing some package design. It's more of an experience/reference thing so I'm not doing enough. I wish I was.. then I could quit my job. Oh well. 

Well... my life has been quite uneventful so there really isn't much to write about. I'll be broke for the next couple weeks so I can't go out as much as I'd like to.. and Summer school eats up a lot of your time. 

Back to laziness.

The End.

Gravity.

Haven't posted in a while. Just been really busy with things, I guess. 

So the regular school year is finally over. Took long enough. I had a good week of vacation before starting up summer school. The first half of which I did absolutely nothing. It got interesting by the end; hung out with friends and such. I'm taking an introductory social anthropology course during the summer. It's pretty interesting so far and the work load isn't too much, which is great. Plus, I'll be done July 17. So. Very. Close.

Right now, I'm taking a break from online job hunting. I'm planning to fix up my resume, pdf it and then sending it to as many online applications as possible. I'm currently... unhappy with my current part-time employment at IKEA. I mean, the pay's good and the people with whom I work are generally nice but the job itself is just so unappealing to me. It's a combination of frustrating and boring. And some customers just make me want to chuck my wireless scanner at them with full force. I'm planning to apply at some retail stores at the mall near my house. One of which is a receptionist position at a photo studio. I can use my "work voice" to it's full potential there.

Other then that I've been feeling unnecessarily stressed for some reason. Well, the reason may be my confusion to what I'm currently doing in life. That of course includes my job. It also includes just a bunch of other things I've been thinking alot about lately. I think I'm too indecisive and passive when I approach things. Things never turn out the way I'd like them to be. 

So back to possible productivity. 

The End.
