I decided to drive downtown today to pick up my new suit – and it cost me. I couldn’t find a parking spot anywhere, so I had to park in a lot, which costs $4 every frigging half hour (stayed for an hour). Then of course, I had to pay for parking at school… Another $5 bucks (it’s only $2 per hour here).
The positive there is that I actually ate at home before I came to school, so that saved me the $10 I normally spend on lunch on Thursdays. But I did buy a sundae from MacDonalds, and some Tim’s before my class started. Plus, and this is really amazing, I came really relaly close to getting a parking ticket… LOL, I was 15 minutes late from buying a new ticket… and so when I finally did get out of the car to get a new ticket (leaving behind the ticket that was 15 minutes late), a parking cop (dunno exactly what they’re called) came up to my car and started writing me a ticket. Good thing I noticed that she was there while I was buying the ticket, so I booked it down, and told her I was buying a new one. So she cancelled the ticket, thankfully…
I so knew it wasn’t a good day for this… I shoulda left my car at Kennedy Station and taken the subway here. Though I probably woulda only saved like 6 bucks or so, and I would have had to carry around my new suit to everywhere I went today. So overall, it’s not so bad, but I pretty much paid for convenience…
Anyway, what else is there for me to write about.. man it’s been a while. Man I’m having a hard time figuring out what to write about – or what order I’ll do it in.. maybe a list’ll help me out.
- Bartending school is done, and I’m freaking scared for the exam… Passing is 85%. Oh my, who’d have thought it would be that hard? I need to identify all the details of 20 cocktails… Glass, garnish, ingredients, etc. Pretty freaking hard when you have over a hundred cocktails to memorize.
- On that note, I have a paper due 2 days after that test… and even though they told me I don’t have to come in right away (they give you as much time as you want to study before the test… the date they give you is just the earliest you can make an attempt), I don’t really wanna put it off, cause I’m just gonna get lazy..
- Another way for me to get lazy is this interview I had on Wednesday. It’s for an summer internship with the Ontario Liberal Party. If I get that internship, that pretty much means I won’t be bartending this summer – there’s no way I can pass this internship up.
- That would mess up my summer schooling too.. I’ve decided that there’s no way I would take summer school if I needed to work full time. This is exactly why I went for bartending school in the first place, hoping that I could work part time only, and still make enough money as if I was working full time. Anyway, this really messes up my summer plans for the next 2 or 3 years, cause I need to take summer school one of these summers (I only have 3 summers left in University), but I also planned to spend the entire summer of 2009 in the Philippines… and I was really hoping not to have to take summer school after my 4th year. I’ll be hearing if I got accepted to the program in the next two weeks.. I’m kinda really hoping I did get in. But at the same time I kinda am not… Gha, I just wanna know… needs a fastforward button for life…
- My brain is about to fry itself out trying to study. I gotta get on this frigging essay due next Wednesday, and I gotta start (re)reading all my readings for POL208 and POL203… Ghar, that’s hundreds of pages I must somehow stuff into this little brain of mine.
- Interestingly, only these two PoliSci courses are giving me issues regarding their exams… its interesting cuase they’re my favourite courses, but I am seriously hating them right now.
- Oh yah, and I have all these piano pieces to learn as well.. First, Joyce’s grandparent’s wedding (recomitment ceremony), and then the mass amount of music I need to learn for Good Friday and Easter (well.. not so much learn, but work on/master…). And I’m barely spending time on the piano. On top of that, I have a bunch of theory to mark for my students at the school of music, which I’m seriously not in the mood to do…
- Finally… that’s just really the best way to describe how I feel right now… Not in the mood… to do anything… meaning, LAZY. Gha, it always happens around this time of the year. The end is in sight! I can finally see myself sitting by the beach for hours and hours, relaxing, without a care in the world… It started today… I’m wearing shorts right now. Horay… From now on I only wear pants for church and job interviews.. LOL.
Blehh…
