I don't want to hear it

Stop crying wolf. Don't bother telling me the next time something bad happens to you if you don't try to learn from it. If you can't move on... it's your problem. I listen and to comprehend and make things better for people going thru hard times but if they are just going to go back to the way they were previously after my many consolations, hours of commitment to them as a friend ... this is me, saying no more.

I'm speaking... but it's as if nobody can hear me...

My week is so longggg... I had a break from work Wed, but that means I actually have to work Sat so... blah! lol. didn't really have anything in particular to write about. Just bored out of my mind. I really haven't studied much-- actually finished off a book today (Interview w/ the Vampire). Such an old book, but it was an easy read. I haven't read a book in ages, so this is awesome!

Sis is coming home this weekend, bro is out to London and Jules is out partying Friday nite. Going to Flirt Lounge- if any of you are interested, give my cell a call!

March MaDDness!

HOLA!!!

Long time no blog. Sorry friends :) I'm here though, still alive and kicking. Just work a lot (it seems). My brain is working functionally now and it's a lot more active these days w/ the new job. I like it. Frankly it's fun sometimes. It's always a challenge, you have to learn how to talk to people and handle situations right away. Lots of on the spot improv-ing going on. Everytime clients ask me something, my brain draws a big fat blank. I keep calling my support departments to find out what's going on. haha... Lots of people I trained with don't like this job... but I'm looking at it in a positive light. At least I'm not facebooking every 2 minutes and sitting there with no way of knowing/measuring how I'm doing. I'm sure if I wasn't performing well at my job/enjoying it I wouldn't want them to measure my productivity and my effectiveness on the phone, but I think what I'm doing is valuable and is going to take me where I want to go... but now that I'm on the phone all the time..... I try to avoid talking on the phone at home now. My love for phones have come and gone. haha.

Life outside work: still busy as hell. As per usual. Nothing new to report really. Last weekend I worked on Sunday, so that was an experience. Felt a lot more productive than being at home and doing laundry and lounging. Though I miss the ability to shop (I am not supposed to... but still). I see my fam less too... but maybe that can change in the next week. Trying to get back to the gym- I've also neglected that in the past 2 weeks. My room still looks like a bomb exploded in it... and poor Speckle (my turtle) is floating in some dirttyyy water. Lots of fun things have happened though! It was Jess' and my surprise party the other week-- first of all, I thought it was only for Jess, but turns out it was mine too ! It was wicked. Had LOTS of chocolate cake and FONDU. LOVED it. Lots of finger foods too. I have to say, Eric/Lali/Dani did a great job!!! lol What else, last week I went and played vball at York. It was the 12th Annual RAGE vball tourney- started at 7pm and went till 6am since we were in Tier 3, semi finals. I WAS exhausted. By the end of the night (morning?) my arms were really really bruised and swollen and my palms were purple (Matthew said it was b/c blood wasn't flowing from my arms to my palms cuz they were soooo swollen). I also had a nice leg cramp that Ajda & Matt tried fixing for me. It's great playing w/ a bunch of Kin students. They were fixing me as I was falling apart! lol Went home and crashed that Sat morning and woke up at 4:30pm, got ready for the basketball tournament for work. I was one of 2 girls on the teams... guess what, we were runners up in the whole tourney! Wicked, EH? I'm finally starting to feel okay after my weekend marathon. arms are back to the right size and I can WALK :D The other day I had wings with Morris/Walid/Matt & Amy. It was a good nite. Not sure what's up this weekend... I have it off :D whoooo ! Dragonboating season is starting up :D I'm on Wildcards w/ B's fam... but I might be joining TD's too. Wonder if that would be a smart move considering how busy I am already :S We shall see, we shall see. Got a couple more courses to take- my next exam is in... 3.5 weeks. Whooooo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
