Wednesday, August 28, 2002
Friday was here, went away, lets skip to Wednesday.
Well, those forms that I mentioned about in the last entry were okay. That put me at ease. I know why I was stressing over it, because my co-worker, Andrea is really good at formatting visual things. Well, she should be, she is a graphic design major, which is cool. She's done a few forms for the Admin office this summer, and they came out really neat, really clean. I like art, but I just get all anxious when I am intimidated I guess. Anyway, as for my weekend, I didn't freak out like I did the previous weekend when I didn't hear from David when we were supposed to hang out at the Black Family Reunion. I knew this time around he was packing to get ready to move down to Cincy on Sunday, in which he did. He invited me over later that evening, he picked me up from my house at like 9:30. My Mom was (extremely) worried that I was leaving out the house "late" on Sunday night. I didn't really tell her where I was going though- she didn't like that I was with David the first time around, she'll probably be pissed that I'm back with him again. Who knows, I really don't care (to an extent), this is my life you know. I think sometimes my Mom doesn't realize that I am 20 years old now. Well, I got back home at 3:30 in the morning. Luckily I only went to work from 8-noon on Monday, or otherwise I would have been a mess trying to sit at my desk for 8 hours. And Monday would have been my Dad's 54th birthday. I miss you Dad, I know that you are watching over me, and I hope that you love me unconditionally, although I may make some mistakes; all I ask of you is to love me anyway.
As for Tuesday, nothing much happened. Tried to study for that Marketing final exam that I had this afternoon, but not that much. I hate studying sometimes. As for today, I went to work from 8-12:45, tried to cram some more before 1:30 to only be distracted by a combination of major hunger pangs/pains and information overload (from cramming). I tried to sell back my Marketing book too, but I'm holding off on that. I can't believe that I paid over 100 bucks for the new edition of the textbook, and I will only recieve 34 bucks max when I sell the book back. Well, that's college for ya, they just take your money in all sorts of ways. One more thing, my friend Desarae sent me a wedding invitation! I'm the maid of honor, and the ceremony is less than two months away! It's on October 12th! Time to get crackin!
Well, that's all the news I have...for now at least.

Friday is here!
And boy, am I glad! I have the entire weekend to look forward to. And so far, it has been a good, but busy day at work. I was trying to reformat some supply forms for Becky, but I don't feel like I have the knack for formatting forms I guess. I've printed out the two forms that I'm reformatting like 15 times a piece! I've asked like 4 people in the office to look at what I had so far. I hope that its okay. Maybe I'm just stressing over it a bit too much. Besides, they are just forms. Then, there was a power outtage around 11 this morning. Deja vu man- we had one about a month ago arpund the same time. Freaky. To top it all off, the power outage on campus occurred right before we were to have a group lunch with all of the people in the office for one of our fellow co-workers. Her name is Emily, and today is her last day in the Admin office before heading back to college to finish up her degree this year. Best of luck to you Emily, its been nice working with you (again during the summer). The gathering was kinda fun at first, because we all sat in the dark eating pizza and having salad; the blackout made things more memorable.
Anywho, its about 3:30 in the afternoon. I've been speding quite a bit of my time outside the office, on account of scanning some docs for my other/regular boss, Joanne. Hey, at least I got to learn how to use Adobe Acrobat! Just only 1.5 hours to go before work ends!
I'm pretty excited about this evening too, because I'm hanging out with some classmates from high school. We're going to dinner around 6, and then to a movie. It should be a lot of fun.
And as for Saturday, I have no plans as of yet. Maybe I should take that day to study for my final exam next Wednesday. I might come back up to campus with my laptop to see how it works. I want to find out if there are any ethernet hookups around campus. Maybe I won't have to purchase that wireless network card. But then again, I would like to because that would add to my options on where I can use my laptop around campus.
Last but not least, Sunday will be a pretty good day in my opinion. That will be the day that David will move down here so that he can get settled in before classes begin on the 25th. I'm quite glad that the day (for him to move) is finally here. I wonder if I should get him a "welcome to Cincy" gift? Well, I will wonder more about that later, I have more scanning to do for now!

Note to self: don't look at blackplanet.com member pages while at work! I got a new note from this dude, and to be nosey, I checked out his member page. I wish that I hadn't cuz he had this one gif file of a girl giving head to a guy in a chair that looks like a wheel chair. The caption said something like "blow job accessable" or some trife mess like that! I hurried and logged off bp at the risk of getting caught by a co-worker viewing that! The last thing I want to do is look like a pervert! That is one thing that I am not- a pervert!
I'm going to get back to work now!

I am such a lazy bum.
It's been almost a week since I've posted any new entries to this blog, but then again, I had nothing (much) to write about. Currently, I am still at work, I have a little less than two hours to go. I'm glad of that because I have been deprived of sleep overnight. If I didn't wake up at 4 this morning, maybe, just maybe, I would have had enough sleep to get me though today. I should have went to sleep earlier Sunday night, but instead, I was up watching The Anna Nicole Show and The Osbournes. Maybe I was in need of some reality tv last night. Reality Tv, doesn't that sound like an oxymoron? It does to me for some reason. As for my reality, a special someone told me that he loved me about two weeks ago. *smiles* Life is good. Dang, well that was two weeks ago, nothing else exciting has happened to me since then. I've been living a pretty boring life during this summer I guess. Can't hardly catch up with any of my friends (and vice versa), I stay tired all the time on account of working 36 hours plus going to class 4 hours a week. The last week of my Marketing class is here. I'm still debating on whether to take the final exam next Wednesday or not. Decisions, decisions. If I can make it through this last regular exam this Thursday, that will be helpful. Now, if I can just sit down and study for the exam, then I'll be back in business. Gotta go, there's more work to do here in the office.

No time to really write anything right now, since I actually have some work to do. While I was distracted, I saw this on the Sony website. It's an expensive little dog, but at least you don't have to keep your floor covered in newspaper.

Yes, the trip is over. It was okay, but the shopping was great! We missed the actual reunion, but still sported our shirts anyways. My Mom, Grandmom, my cousins, and myself were going around looking like a navy blue army of sorts. I'm glad that I got to meet my Grandma's Aunt Maddie (however it's spelled)! She's 90 years old and funny as hell! I was shocked and confused when she started talking about the songs "My Neck, My Back" and "Hot in Herre". In her unique, silly way, she somehow meshed the lyrics together- I don't even recall what she said cuz I was laughing that hard.
In my opinion, the trip was poorly planned, but I enjoyed meeting Aunt Maddie, plus buying some cute clothes. I even found a Coach-like purse! Just having a materialistic moment there.
We didn't get back until Monday morning. Oddly enough, I got into my house at 7:58, just enough time to call the office to tell them that I wasn't going to be in that day. Too bad that my boss didn't get the message until I asked her about it Tuesday. Oh well, they weren't upset about it or anything. Lesson learned: make sure to call back if I am leaving a message when taking a day off.
Having that day off has made the week go by a little faster. Tomorrow is Thursday, already! That's cool cuz my Marketing class is cancelled! I'm planning to go into work early that day, after dropping off some verification papers at the financial aid office, then going to the bookstore to exchange a shirt that I bought for my cousin AJ. The shirt was a bit too small unfortunately. I'll just have to remember to ship the shirt to his home all the way in Kansas. I feel bad that I didn't get the opportunity to hang out with him, his little sister Alexuxs, and their parents (my Aunt Sherry and Uncle Arnold) while they were here. But there is always next summer when I can make up that lost time with them.

My Mom, Grandma and cousins should have been on out way down to Alabama as of now, but I'm currently at home waiting for them to stop by and get us so that we can hit the road already! I will be glad when this weekend is over- hate to sound like a sore looser, but I wish that next weekend would get here cuz I would rather be out with David right about now, that (cute) bum! Enough of the griping, I just wanted to post a link to
Aeropostale.com They've completely revamped their site. All the old site could do is create wish lists that you could email to your friends, or print out for yourself to take to their store. Now you can create a profile and a personality (might sound strange, but you will understand what I mean when you visit the site). The site is cool as hell-be sure to check it out!

I just found out that my site/storage space(the location that I link my pics for this blog) isn't working properly due to a data transfer error. Something like that. I'll deal with it when I get home today, then again, maybe not. I would move it over to my other site that I haven't transfered any files to as of yet, and then again I can be lazy and do nothing.
Yes! This is my last day of work before the weekend begins! We had a blackout today around 11:15 this morning throughout the entire main campus from what I heard from my co-workers. It lasted like 45 minutes- we basically sat in the dark. But it was cool to have a spontaneous break like that!
My co-op boss is already gone for the day, and all next week to go on her vacation. I just won't be here on Friday. It's cool though- I have a few projects to work on next week, but things should be easy going for the week. I'm glad that I get to sleep in tomorrow- but not for long- I have to return to campus at 1pm to participate in my last marketing experiment for my Intro to Marketing course that I am enrolled in this summer. It's cool because I wanted to go to the bookstore and get some t-shirts for my Uncle Arnold, Aunt Sherry and my little cousins A.J. and Alexsus. My Aunt and cousin Alexsus are supposed to come in town this evening, hopefully by the time that I get home from work. I feel like going shopping today though- just in the mood to do so, plus I wanna pick up some things to take with me on the long car ride to Alabama tomorrow evening. I need to continue to save my money so that I can get that laptop paid off!
It's amazing how it seems like a few people that I know are taking trips right now. There's me, my co-op boss Becky, my Aunt, Uncle and cousins, and David. Right now he's on a trip with one of his high school buddies- I think they went white-water rafting or something like that. I hope that he's having fun- cuz I miss talking to that bum. I'm guessing that we won't probably hang out until around this time next weekend. But that is only my guess though. Did I already mention that I missed that bum?! :P
Plans for the rest of the day:
Shop for stuff (yea, real specific, huh!)
Go Home
Relax!
Eat something
Spend time with out-of-town guests
