This morning, not looking forward to walking to work, I called a cab at 8am, thinking it would take about 15min for it to get here. Nope, it arrived about 5min later. Not thinking, I jumped in, to avoid the cold. I got there at about 8:07am, no one was there!! So, I stood outside (in the cold) waiting for someone to arrive for about 20mins. A HUGE bust in my plans to avoid the cold, that costed me $4.50. Shane, the old guy who tips me, gave me $5, so that paid for my cab in a way. They didn't have the evening buffet, so I got to come home early. I had gotten myself all bundled up for my walk, but then Dave offered to drive me. So I got a drive in a nice warm truck instead. I guess Wayne called me this morning, Sam answered. I gave them a call when I got home, Sam had written down their number. Neither Wayne nor Jeananne were home, but I talked to Deanna for a little while. She wished me a happy birthday. I guess she's not at UNB anymore. She didn't really like it, and they didn't have the law program she was looking for. She's working at the Sholtens in Grand Bay. I'm going to call back at about 7pm or 8pm. They should be home by then. Since he actually took the time to call. I guess he tried last night a couple of times, but we were out, and our caller id sucks, so I never check to see who called. I'm really hoping classes will be cancelled tomorrow. I really don't feel like walking in this, and it would be nice to have a day off, I could get some stuff done for my classes. Anyway I'm gonna go work on some stuff now, write later.....

Hey!! Today is my birthday!!
Jackie and Shannon called me this morning and sang happy birthday to me over the phone, it was great! (thanks guys!). Anyway mom and Richard are coming up to see me, they said they would be here between 1pm-2pm. It is now 3:26pm, a little late. They better have a good excuse. Like they were out buying me lots of presents, or something like that.:)
Thursday Jackie and I had noodles, and a very successful homemade alfredo sauce. It was very nice. There was also cake, it was chocolate cloud cake, very good. Sam rented the movie "Forgotten" that evening, it was a good movie. I've decided not to do any work today, I know I'm going to regret this tomorrow, but I'll worry about it then. Anyway gotta go, write later...

Hey, I wrote my proff the other day to tell him that I didn't really understand what he wanted for the essay. He wrote me back and I got the email today, He's going to extend the deadline by a whole week!! Score for Krista!! I was not looking forward to handing that in. He said bring it up on friday and we'll talk about it.Woohoo for me!! I work tomorrow from 5pm-10pm. It's nice working the evening on fridays, it's busy enough to keep me occupied, but not to busy. It's nice.Then on saturday Mom, and Rich are coming up. We're going to go to the hilltop for supper. I think they are going to bring the puppy for me to see also, which would be great. I think they're going to stay up here for the night to. I have a philosophy paper due the day before the new deadline for sociology, but I think I know what he wants in that essay. Anywho I'm going over to Jackie's, we're going to go to the mall or something. Write later....

Hey, the professors at our stupid school still haven't decided if they are going on strike or not. It's really frustrating, not knowing about this. Just go on strike or shut up! I asked my proff to review my essay that I had re-wrote, with all of his recommendations, I got a B the first time, and a B the second. What was the point of re-writing it? Hopefully he'll knock me up a grade or two. i just called mom a little while ago and she said that she wasnt feeling all that great, which means they might not come up to visit this Saturday, I hope they can though. I think they're going to bring the puppy up to come visit also (if they come). I'm writing this essay for my Sociology proff , and he gave us barely any guidelines on what this essay should be about. It's really just a review of the text book that he's been bad mouthing all year! Jerk! I will never take another class with him. He's horrible. I don't think the averages in that class are very good for anyone. He has a strange idea that if you know everything you need to know in his class and can understand it well, it's a C.Most other proffs would give B+'s for the work that he grades as C's. He's weird. Anyway going to go read some stuff for other classes.Write later

Work was good last night, the morning flew by. Then at the evening buffet, instead of standing around doing nothing, and being bored, I just went and sat down with my co-workers and talked. It was much more enjoyable. And the guy that tipped me $5 last week for helping him get his food, tipped me $10 this week. I found out later that he's a rich old guy whose just trying to get laid, and hires prostitutes all the time, but I'll take his money no problem. I'm just going to mention that my boyfriend was the one who got me the job. That made my day getting a nice tip like that. Today I got my research paper back and I got an A on it. So, that made me pretty happy today. The professors took their strike vote today and quite possibly could go on strike by Wednesday. I have no sympathy for them, they are bitching about working 9 hours a week, 45 thousand or more a year and only work 8 months out of the year. And they have benefits. They are a bunch of whiners!! I work more than 9 hours in one day!! Cry me a river!! Anyway I gotta go work on some stuff that's due maybe in a week and a half. Write later....:)

I just got done writing my essay for Research Methods. That class is alot easier than I was expecting. I like my proff too. I really have to go buy some more onk. I'm pretty well completely out of all of my colors, and I don't have that much left on my black ink either. I'll just wait until my black runs out and get then all refilled at once. It's only $11 for black ink, I don't think it'll be any more for color ones. I get paid on Friday. I have to work on Friday too, I picked up some more hours. I start at 3:30pm instead of 5pm. I hope it's not to cold on Friday. I walk home at 10pm, Sam doesn't get off until 11pm. I stay on the brigtly lit sidewalks, don't worry, except when I cut through the Tim Hortons parking lot to the street beside my house. It's bright there too. My stomach has been upset today, I don't know why, I didn't eat anything out of the ordinary. I slept horribly last night.....I tossed and turned all night, and then my alarm went off at 7:50am, I hit the snooze button a couple times. It's really not a great idea to have a 9am class only twice a week, I'll remember that for when I make my schedule for next year. The other three days, I don't have class until 11:30am. So, I get to sleep in until 9am. Alright, sometimes 10am. Everyday in philososphy we have a quiz on the previous nights readings. So, I was writing my quiz and the proff told everyone to pass them to the front, well I was only on #3 out of 5. So I huirried and got another one done, and the proff pretty well took it right out from under me. I told him I needed to finish a word and he let me, but I didn't think that was very nice. Anywhoo I think I'm going to go do some reading for tomorrow. Write Later.....COMMENT!!

Work was horribly boring on Sunday!! It was ok in the morning, because people came to the buffet after church, so the morning one went by fast, cause I was constantly filling stuff back up. At about 2pm I started packing up the salad bar and streamers. I then refilled everything and put it in the fridge. I got done doing all that at about 3:45pm. At 4pm I started taking everything back out again for the supper buffet, which was brand new for Sunday, so nobody knew about it. I had nothing to do, I just walked around and stirred stuff. That went on until abou 7:30. The buffet is finished at 8pm. THEN a woman and her son came in at 7:45pm, and bought the buffet. So I couldn't start packing anything up until they were completely finished. They finished about 8:20pm. So then I packed everything up and came home. I was so frustrated. At least at a call centre, when it's not busy they can send you home. I hope more people know about it on this Sunday, otherwise I'll ask my boss to switch me to the Saturday shift, which is less hours. Anyway got lots of stuff to do for school. Write Later..........

Work was good. It was alot to learn, but it was good. I was taught what to do in about half an hour and then I was left to do it myself. Ted, the manager, helped me do close. The other guy who works buffet is a little slow and I can't understand a word that he says, so that made the night a little hard, but it was alright. Other than not understanding him, he seems nice. Everyone else there was really nice and helpful. I have to get to work on some essays, I've been procrastinating today. I think I'll start on that after I write this, it's pretty quiet right now. Anyway gotta go. Write later....

Today is my first day of work!! I'm pretty excited. All the people that work there seemed nice at the christmas party. I only work 5 hours tonight, so it won't be to overwhelming I'm sure. I'll just learn what to do and when to do it tonight. I get off at 10pm, so it's not to late either. I wouldn't want to work any later than that, working nights is hellish. I suppose I was working at a call centre so that didn't make it any better, it might be easier to work nights in another job. But I'm glad I don't have to do it now. Anyway I'm going to go make some tea and watch a little TV before work, write later........:)

Today was great!! I have four classes today, I thought that might be to much, but it's great. I have one class at 9-10:20am, a break, one from 11:30-12:20pm, one from 12:30-1:20pm, and my last one from 1:30-2:20pm. I love 50minute classes. Not to long, just right in fact. My first class is only Wednesday and Friday, so that is 1 hour and 20 minutes, but then I get a break. This is a great schedule. I only have one class on Tuesday and Thursday, and that doesn't start until 11:30am. AND the professor is only part time which means he has a day job and may come to class a little late most days. He seems pretty laid back, nice first impression. I have a shit load of work to do, but my text still isn't in for my research methods class, so she can't assign us any readings. Anyway I'm going to go make a tea and take a break until 4pm, then I'll work for a couple hours and then I'll make some supper. Write later.......

I went to my literature class and all the proff did was hand back a quiz, I got 75%, and an essay that we rewrote. I think I did better the first time I wrote it though, I got a B this time and the first time I think I got a B+. I'll check it when I get home. I don't have another class until 1:30pm. It's called Research Methods. I think I have a decent professor though, cause Shannon said that her two roommates has this proff last year and they loved her. I think Meghan also had her last year, I think she liked her. I hope I don't have to buy alot of books for this Research class. Books are stupidly expensive. The gouge students in their tuition, residence, even apartments in this area. oh well at least I don't have any major homework to do, other than read a handout my lit proff gave us. I think I'll go read that now, since I have some free time. Write later.....:)

Hey!! Sam called me at about 2:30pm and asked me if I wanted a job at the hilltop. I asked him how many hours a week, he didn't know...just told me to come in for an "interview". It wasn't an interview really, I had already met everyone at the christmas party, so I just filled out some paper work and I start Friday. I'm just doing buffet, and apparently it's not that hard. Sam and the head chef said so. I only work Friday and Sundays. I get about 16hrs in total. Sunday is a long day, but they both said it wasn't very hard, so I don't care. I'll just find things to do. Sam is getting more hours, a guy quit and he and another guy are taking the hours. He's going to be scheduled for 46hrs a week. I hope he doesn't burn out, thats ALOT of hours. I'll get to see him more though, cause I'll see him at work. Anyway I gotta go find my English sillibus, I think I'm supposed to read something for tomorrow. Write later....
