yesterday was tuesday, which is the day where i only have one class, my Biology Lecture class with Prof. Michael Lentz.. basically it was nice ^^ .. he seems to be a really nice professor.. ung tipong very patient and passionate about what he's doing.. ^^ .. i think it's gna be a great class ^^ ..umm i met Kristina and Dave.. they're nice naman ^^ .. la nmn maxado ginawa.. since 1st meeting namin un, just like the other classes, we discussed the syllabus, etc etc.. at the end though, we had a pretest thing.. which we used to call 'diagnostic tests' in high school.. (ah yes.. the good ol' days.. XD ..)
interlude... =D .. i meet a lot of people as i kinda said before.. lyk today i met Danielle at my stat class for example.. ^^ .. tpos other people ive met (some i have mentioned before, some i havent =D ..) Bobby, Kenneth, Mel, Amanda, Kristina, Dave, etc etc.. either from work or from one of my classes.. there's a lot.. i can name more.. but basically my point is that my social life is not as bad as you guys may think XD .. in fact it's actually pretty good, especially sa work =D .. i love workin with the people i work with.. ^^ .. i've kinda become part of their family in a way which is nice.. ^^ .. so agen.. back to the point.. my social life is doing fine ^^ .. it's just that the other day i just kinda spoke too soon (read the last 4-5 paragraphs of my last post =D ..) cuz i just really miss having a friend i can hang out with freely and go to anytym =D .. today kc i kinda realized how im doing fairly well compared to the other people i see who are on their own and just on the same road as i am.. today, wen i realized how i do not have any class where i don't have anyone to talk to, and wen i realized how awesome the people are at work, i realized how i shouldnt have ever complained about it.. it's going good now and i can only expect it to become better =D
nyweiz.. XD .. that was pretty much my day yesterday =D .. today, the sked was the same as nung monday.. sa english class ku, we had a writing assessment test where we were made to write an essay about the story that was written on the paper.. after dis, 1 hour break so i went to the library.. after this, i went to the bookstore and yay! free pizza XD .. after the break, it was my stat class which was ok naman.. un nga i met danielle and sat with her and bobby.. the only bummer was ung prof nga as i talked about before.. pero today i learned that it's not just her difficulty in speaking english that's a bummer, but even how she explains stuf.. i mean yeah na gets ku naman (buti na lng) pero un nga.. the way she discussed the lessons just wasn't so great.. =|
after the class, break ulit.. basically library lng.. tpos kain ulit.. XD .. i explored the 3rd and 4th floors of the library.. GRABE ANDAMING BOOKS... nakaka-lula.. parang feeling mu mawawala ka if u go thru the shelves.. andami kc XD

Mr. Chamblin's good ^^ .. actually lahat naman cla (mr. lentz, mr. chamblin, and mr. francis) is good except nga c dr. sen sa stat class ku =D .. the discussion was good and the lessons were ok pero un lng.. u really have to focus for you to get everything.. if your mind flies away even just for a while, medyo nkaka-wala.. so aun.. pero ok nmn ^^

my 1st day of skul.. ^-^
alrighty! XD .. let's start XD
i left the house at 10 am and stopped by at the Christian store (Life Way) where i bought 2 shirts.. 1 red one that says: "Born to Worhip The Rock" and then the verse Psalm 95:1 saying, "Let us make a joyful noise to The Rock of our salvation, tpos may guitar sa background.. ^^ .. jangasness XD .. and then 1 white one that says : "I am called" and then a smaller text listing: .. 'to be empowered, to fight, to praise, ..." etc, and then may abstract design na parang ung penshoppe-ish type just to give u an idea =D .. ^^ .. jangasness XD .. i also bought a rubber bracelet (parang baller) na may WWJD? (What Would Jesus Do?) na nakalagay ^^ .. jangasness ulit XD .. all this totalled $36 which is not bad for two shirts and a rubber bracelet ^^
after that, Tito Joel brought me to skul na..
so there i went.. XD
you may not realize it, but a whole new chapter in my life just started as soon as i stepped out of the car.. nkaka-wow kng icpn XD =D .. nuff said.. XD
i got there mga 10:30 with an ample amount of time to make it to my 1st class.. i made my way to the bookstore to drop off my lunch and check the shelf for my ENC class in case the books just got recieved last minute.. as i expected...... it wasn't there XD .. so after i left my lunch there, i went to Ms.Darla to ask here if i can get a locker =S
i was kinda worried kc i was told that you have to be a NON-TEMP employee to get a locker.. =S .. pero xmpre, because Ms. Darla is SOOOOOOOOOOOO nice to me (=D ..) pumayag xa.. at hindi lng un... she gave me HER locker!!! THANKS AGAIN MS. DARLA!!! ^^ .. she rocks!!! XD =D .. awesomeness! XD .. that makes me feel sooooo great btw cuz that kinda tells me that they intend to keep me there =) .. im not sure if ive explained this before but ill explain anyhow.. XD
at RUSH kc (which is the period of time encompassing the first few weeks before and after the 1st few days of skul), the bookstore hires 40 TEMPS .. TEMPS ha.. not PERMANENT employees.. in other words, they hire so many temps pag RUSH cuz they neeed the help..
working for the past couple of weeks, i'd sometimes overhear cla john, pam, jamie, danielle, brad, ms. courtney, etc (the people who've been at the bookstore for a long time lrdy) talk about who of the temps they'd want to "keep" working @ d bookstore.. so wen i overheard this, i found out that it's actually possible that they 'let me go' (aka fire me =S ..) after RUSH .. but thanks to God's favor, my hard work has definitely paid off.. ^^ .. let's just say i think they'll keep me.. ^^ .. which would be TOTALLY AWESOME esp. for this 1st year cuz being that i can't drive yet and it would be easier not just for me but for cla tito joel and tita jinky too since they dont have to pick me up after skul to bring me to work in a different place... (noting that my job @ d bookstore is on-campus) =D
nyweiz... XD .. after that whole episode at the bookstore, i made my way to find where my 1st class was gonna be.. ENC 1101 .. it was @ building 39, rm. 2039 .. wen i got there there were already a couple of students there waiting.. the classroom is small.. cguro mga 20-25 lng kmi dun sa class.. it turns out that we did have a prof lrdy (i explained kc in the last post na i felt that nothing would happen sa class na 2 kc la pang announced na prof XD .. abviously i thought wrong XD ..) .. his name is Wayne Francis.. ..
wen class started, he handed out a course syllabus.. we discussed it a bit and ung mga requirements for the class (a few of which was 4-1000 word essays, 2-1000 word in-class essays XD .. beat that XD ..,) tpos may quiz na kaagad sa wednesday (topic is ung syllabus XD ..).. we did an activity where we got a\ partner and asked each other's name and then u hav to introduce him/her to the class, (not the usual introduce urself to the class thing..) .. tpos later in the class, Mr. Francis showed us a video on Youtube XD about how the Ms. Teen USA South Carolina contestant answered the question that was asked to her in the pageant.. we discussed this.. etc etc.. mainly the point is that the class' purpose is to develop critical thinking.. the whole writing part about it is just the application and expression of that critical thinking..
this class looks like it's gna be an OK class ;) ^^ .. it has its seriousness to it, but it has its intimacy to it (kc small class) and u can kinda feel its potential to be a fun class ^^
after this, 1 hour break.. i went to d bookstore, got my lunch, prepared my lunch, and ate my lunch XD .. i was having trouble finding a table XD .. so i just ended up asking someone if i can sit where he was.. his name was kenneth.. ^^ .. nyweiz, after that, i got my books from my brand new locker ( ^^ ) and went to the library to explore and see what's there ^^ .. the library has 4 floors (bengga XD ..) .. it has books of course, a lot of computers, a media library, cd players, solitary desks (aka a desk with walls so you can't be disturbed XD ..), a starbucks! , etc.. XD .. in short, THE WORKS .. niceness XD ^^ (forgive all the "ness" words 2day btw XD ..)
so during this break, i used one of the computer there a bit (w/ SUPER BILIS internet btw :> ..) .. i even made a post on my multiply guestbook and blog cbox while i was there XD .. it just felt so freedom-ish XD .. so aun.. it's cool ^^ .. i can do my internet stuff ther wen im bored.. XD
after this, i went on to my STA class.. here i sat with Bobby, who also goes to my ENC class as well.. the instructor's an Indian (not to be racist but just to note her difficulty in speaking english =S .. which myt be a bit of a prob come lecture tym =S ..) .. her name is Pali Sen.. the room is a huge place (i think it can seat about 100 students.. @_@ ..).. so un.. =D
2 bummers was 1. ung her being not so well an english speaker, and 2. the bummer that we all bought ung package sa bookstore na sobrang kapal na may study guide and lecture cd asyd from the book tpos un pala, ung book lng required nya.. wamp.. XD
ung sa english speaking nya, nkaka-awang nakakatawa nga nun e XD cuz there were just some times where she'd say something that wouldn't make much sense pero gets p rin namin XD .. bsta.. XD .. di ku ma-explain .. XD .. even the simplest and normalest (forgive the coined word XD ..) phrases would become funny XD .. ewan q ba.. XD .. bsta comedy XD .. pero i think it's gna be an ok class.. ^^ .. we actually tackled some stuf today that we tackled sa stat natin nung 4th yr.. ung mga population, sample, qualitative, quantitative, discrete, continuous, etc..
nyweiz after this class, break ulit.. i hanged out ulit sa library, re-wrote the notes i made kc super messy nd pangit sulat (4 na buwan ba namang ndi nagsusulat XD ..), tpos used the computer agen =D
aftr that, i passed by the bookstore to load off my heavy heavy stat stuf XD, got my psych book, then went to my PSY class.. i sat next to a filipino guy hehe.. ^^ so aun we talked a bit.. ^^ .. he's a sophie.. a member of the Pre-Med Society (which i myt join if the Lord convicts me to going into med skul ^^ ..) .. his name is Mel ^^ .. hehe pinoy-ness XD ..
nyweiz, the instructor of the class is Minor Chamblin .. he discussed the course syllabus, grading system etc, (i wont explain that anymore since sobrang haba na XD .. maybe next tym ;) ..), etc etc .. he had a power point presentation and evrything.. which was nice ^^ .. it seems like he's very serious bout his teaching.. so yeah.. i think it's gna be an OK class too ^^ ..
at some point in the class, Mr. Chamblin was talking about this guy who cursed his prof saying "No you stupid s** o* a b***h" cuz he thought differently than the prof.. pero the thing is, ung prof liked him so much cuz he thought critically and had his own views and perspectives (though he was too 'in your face' about it XD ..) .. again (like sa ENC class ku) the point was critical thinking which is going to be a focus of the class.. la lng.. XD .. i just cant forget how he said the word b***h like he did.. XD .. solid e XD
nyweiz, this class ended early, mga 3:50 instead of 4:15 .. so i made my way to the bookstore to drop off my stuf and maybe just hang out a library till 4:30 for work.. pero wen i got there, i askd if i can clock in early, and since they were being so smothered with people XD, pumayag cla hehe ^^ .. kht 30 mins early aq mag clock-in XD
so aun.. then basically, it was just work till 7:30 .. =D
and THAT was MY 1st day of school .. the 1st page of this new chapter in my life.. College.
XD
hmm lemme make some views on some stuf..
it is SO different here.. iba lng tlga ung feel sobra.. ung feeling of independecy, and ung feeling of kanya-kanya ness.. you see people in pairs, only a few in groups of 3 or more, tpos so many just on their own which makes me feel that im not alone being alone.. which is y i was hardly nervous going into today despite feeling a bit excited and nervous in the past days of anticipation (na ndi din naman maxado ganun ka-major cuz thanks to work, i was there evryday anyway)..
college here is not like high school or even college sa pinas where may mga block at least whom you have the same sked w/ @ least for the sem.. d2 iba e.. kanya kanyang sked.. there would only be a handful or even less of people who goes to more than 1 same class as you.. you get the feeling din na evrybody has their own business.. may kanya-kanya clang lakad besides class..
the whole friends thing, it seems like it's not gonna be as automatic finding friends whom i could be as close with as im close to you guys. i mean, yeah sure i socialize w/ people nd all that, sa class, sa work, i talk to whoever etc etc, i sat w/ some1 at lunch, was with @ least one person in each class i had today, pero i haven't gotten anybody whom i can hang out with freely u knw wat i mean..? i mean dyan kc, i knw u guys have blocks nd all which is why you can easily make a few friends quick and after just a few weeks or less, may grupo k na b4 u knw it..d2 kc parang there's that feeling na ndi kcng linaw mangyari un because of what i just explained above.. xenxa na i cant really explain it too well.. bsta ganun nga..
on the other hand of this whole friend situation, im at peace about it cuz i know that God will assign friends to me.. ^^ .. pero till then, i just gotta wait.. know im kinda expecting things too fast.. i knw my friends will come.. pero that's just how it kinda feels ryt now.. then agen, we'll see.. ;)
dont wori bout it ya'll.. specially mom n dad.. cguro nga i just miss having the companionship and security of having a friend i can just go to anytym, u knw wat i mean..? i mean, it's been 2 months nd it kinda kicks in once in a while .. =| .. but im fine ^^
i know it's all gna be good ^^ .. i know im in God's favor =)
nyweiz ya'll i gotta go.. super haba na n2 amp XD .. 2 hours na aqng nagcocompose amp XD .. i gotta rest na.. till next tym guys..
miss you all..

sweeeeeeet..! (my 1st American paycheck) Ü
haaaaaa-llelujah! haaaaaa-llelujah! (*ray of light from the sky and the sound of angels singing*) hahaha XD
whooopeee! i got my 1st paycheck today! ^^
but b4 i begin blabbing XD, just wanna make a greeting =D
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA! ^^
it's her bday this 24th of august.. hehe =D .. nyweiz.. .. .. =P
this paycheck was just for last week's work which totalled 34.39 clocked-in hours out of the 36 hours i supposedly worked since they subtract pala the time you take on your breaks and if you clock out early and stuff lyk that.. so in short, talagang strict cla w/ the time you put in.. =D .. if your shift is 9 to 7 but you clock out at 6:30 instead of 7, bawasado ung 30 mins na un sa oras mu.. i guess that was the case with this.. i was expecting 36 hours worth of work pero i gues it just turned out to be 34.39 pero minus na ung breaks and ung early clock-outs.. bale, i get paid for every minute i work and don't get paid for every minute i don't work.. =D
here's the math =D ...
minimum wage [$6.67] / hour times [34.39] hours minus mga [30] dollars of tax = :> ;) :> ;) :>
6.67 x 34.39 - 30 = ***.** .. =)
and that's just one week of work.. *nudge nudge* .. ^^
ima budget this one into a couple of expenses.. a couple of em is:
maybe a little more clothes for me to wear =D , pabango (dhl naubusan aq =D ..), money to have my guitar checked out and to buy new strings and a bottle of polish, tapos shmpre, 10% tithe to the Lord ^^
other stuf that's been going on...
i bought my books yesterday and today ^^ .. hinihintay ku n lng na maka-recieve ng information ung bookstore from my prof for my ENC 1101 college writing class para mabili ku na ung books for that class ^^
nabili ku na lahat ng books ku for my biology class, my psych class, nd my stat class, (which totalled about $400 bucks by the way!) .. tpos un..
i also got to see today my regular work sked for wen skul starts.. ill post it na lng wen it;s final.. kakausapin ku pa c ms. darla.. ima ask and see if i can cancel one shift on tuesday.. i gave her 2 avaiable slots kc, one in the morning, and one in the afternun.. 1 b4 and aftr class, not thinking that they really myt actually give me BOTH those slots.. kala ku isa lng.. i wanna cancel one of them para naman medyo mas matimbang ku ung school work-load ku.. i dont wanna have too much of a hard tym.. kng macancel ku nga ung shift na un, ill be working 25 hours a week pero kng ndi ku macancel, it'll be 29 hours. either way, the pay is ok (watta rhyme XD..), pero i just wanna free up my tuesdays a bit para ndi naman aq maxado mahirapan.. tska para 1 work shift lng aq per day =D
also today, (like other days), i met a lot of people.. helpin em out with their books and all.. but today, there was this one guy who looked pinoy (there are other pinoys i see too, but not all of em i get to talk to about our being pinoy-ness.. XD..) .. pero what made me talk to him more was that i noticed he had a pool cue with him.. hehe which was awesome ^^ .. so yeah i guess we kinda clicked there.. we talked a bit etc etc.. bout billiards, our being pinoy, other pinoys on campus, the game room in UNF (where there are a couple of billiard tables) etc etc.. hehe so that was cool ^^ to have been able to connect w/ some1 n ganun ^^
continuing work, i went to the back room and had to do some prepping for some books.. that's number 15. btw on the list of stuf i do @ work =D .. i also did another new thing besides that today.. =D
15. book prep - all i do here is tag them w/ a 99999 sticker, a used book sticker, and a security tag.. tpos what's next done with these books is just locating them and shelfing them..
16. phone voice mails - basically these are the voice messages on all of the phones in the store.. i just had to listen to each message and note the name of the person who called and their number for someone to call them the next day..
so nyweiz, doing #15 right after talkng to that ryan guy, i mentioned it to john/johnathan since he's half pinoy (tpos 1/4 welsh [from wales] and the 1/4 swiss ata un XD [from switzerland]) .. so i told him that i got to talk to that ryan guy tpos that's wat made me and john start talkin about billiards kc he plays pala! hehe niceeee ^^ .. we eventually also talked about guitar cuz he playes that as well too! ^^ .. so aun, click na click tuloy kmi.. XD .. he's the closest friend ive made so far i gues ^^ .. aun.. la lng.. ^^ share ku lng.. just something nice i thought i'd mention ^^ =D =)
nyweiz that's pretty much it.. i gotta rest lrdy.. ima do my chores tomorow morning so i wont go OL.. =D
take care lagi kau dyan ^^ .. miss you guys =) .. just haven't been saying it, but i really REALLY do.. =| .. .. haay.. ..
anyway, bye for now ya'll.. ;)

another 1 bites the dust.. 2 actually.. >_<
there goes another string.. XD
just broke another string today.. actually.... i broke one yesterday too.. haha XD .. that's 2 strings in 2 days.. 1 per day XD .. galing galing XD .. 2day, i was trying to tighten the truss rod a bit.. in the process of doing so, you have to loosen the strings 1st.. then after tightening it, you tune the strings back to pitch.. so after a couple times of doing so, boing! XD .. there goes the 3rd string..! XD .. thus, by also counting the one i broke the last time (in another post), my guitar now only has 3 strings.. wonderful (sarcastic).......... XD
ima try a different type of strings next tym i get to buy.. screw the EXP's.. "lasts longer" my butt XD .. yeah sure.. lasts long...... IF IT MANAGES NOT TO GET BROKEN.. XD.. ima try the D'Addario EJ17's which are the regular phosphor bronze strings.. mas mura pa .. it's only $5.50 compared to the "longer lasting" EXP's priced at 13 bucks XD
nyweiz, since my last post, basically ang nagyari lang was that it was my day off nung thursday, i worked friday 9-7, tpos kahapon (saturday), i worked more or less from 10-4.. today, we just went to church this morning.. tpos mamaya uli..
my sked for this week @ work is way different than that of last week.. monday 3:00 - 8:30, tuesday 2:00 - 8:30, wednesday to friday 2:00 - 9:30, then saturday 11:00 - 8:30.. a total of 39 and 1/2 hours..
that's pretty much it for now.. ^^

2nd day at d UNF bookstore. *
ok wait before i start, i just wanna make some greetings .. =D
HAPY BIRTHDAY LUIJ! =)
.. it's his bday 2day =D
and also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIKKI! ^^
yesterday was her bday.. =D .. nyweiz.. XD ..
yesterday was pretty much the same as today..
i do feel significantly more comfortable w/ the people im working with though, which is cool ^^ .. also, i'm more familiar with the work too.. there were some stuff that i did today though that i didn't do though.. =D
so to continue yesterday's list of sub-jobs / duties .. :
8. floorstacks - in the morning this is what i did.. there were SOOOO MANY (like mga 200 or so) copies of the Biology book for BSC 1010C (w/c is one of the classes im goin to, thus im gna need one of these..) that just came in.. so since ndi na malagay sa shelf ung mga ibang copy nung book na 2, i made floorstacks of em..
9. online orders / pulling books - what i do here is that i have a bunch of papers w/ lists of books on em and all i have to do is get them, check em off the list, put em all together, and put w/ it the paper where it was listed..
10. SODA - i forgot what this stands for XD .. but this is more of a back-room computer job.. this is the next step after doing online orders... the online orders / pulled books get put in te back room where it is packed for picking up.. what i had to do was look up the orders in the computer system, make sure the books are right, make adjustments if needed (like if there are only new books when what was requested was a used book), then confirm it, something will print up, then while the comp does that, i pack the books, put em in a plastic, get the printed papers, staple em together, and put em in the bag together w/ the books.. then lastly, i label the packages w/ the last 5 nmber's of its web order number then shred the paper list that was used for pullin the books (wee i get to use the shredder.. what a thrill.. XD ..)
11. mopping the floors - haha XD .. since i stayed all the way till closing agen, i mopped the floors this tym, instead of vacuuming.. XD
that's pretty much most of wat i did 2day i guess XD .. tomorrow im off work, so ill just rest, do my chores, and whatever else i need to do / want to do, if time allows me to.. XD
ingatz lagi ya'll ^^ =)

my 1st day of work... ;) ..this is really it.. XD
whoo! what a day! XD
lemme see.. let's start off with last night..
last night i was trying to do this online training course thing that courtney (my manager) instructed me to do.. so i went to the site, created an account, and wen i get to the page aftr i log in where it says "Please click here for the list of available courses", wen i click on the link.. nothing happens.. i was guessing that something was wrong wth d site or sum'n.. i was kinda worried cuz i didn't really know how important it was to be able to do this course before i can actualyl work.. i tried calling courtney but the number on her business card is not a personal number.. and since bookstore hours were over, i couldnt contact her.. after trying different things, and trying over and OVER to get goin w/ d online training course, and yet it still wouldnt work, i decided that i wake up early in the morning to see if it'll work..
zzzzz...
next morning, gues what! ....... it still didnt work.. hahaha XD .. so as soon as the clock ticked 8 o clock w/c was the time that the store opened, i called the bookstore to ask about it.. the person hu answered said that i can just come in anyway and i can get set-up there..
bale by this tym, mga 8:10 na.. tpos i gotta leave in about 20-30 mins! so... SUPER RUSH! .. plantsa damit, ligo, bihis. ayos gamit, all in record time XD ..
i got to work on time and what 1st happened was that i spoke to ms. darla, who is anothe rmanager at the bookstore.. i askd her about the training course thing but she said that's something courtney can help me out with.. un nga lng, courtney was skeduled to come in at 10:30 pa! .. so she set me up na so i can just start workin kc sayang nga nmn ung oras.. so she made me a name tag, i got myself an apron, she taught me how to punch my work card in, sowed me where 'the cage' was so i can put my bag in it, and off i went!
these were the different stuff i had to do.. sub-jobs, if u will, kc nobody is really assigned to do only one thing.. evrybody does everything XD ..
1. overstock - this was the 1st thing i did.. overstock is as what the word says: "over-stock" .. ito ung mga sobra na books which are put on shelves arramged alphabetically according to 1st letter of 1st author's name.. these are excess books, being that the regular shelves are full already so ung sobra goes here.. what i had to do was get the list of authors, go thru each of the excess books, match em up w/ what's on the list, find where it is on the regular shelves, and put a yellow sticker on the shelf tag of that book, which meant na kapag ubos na ung from the regular shelves, someone can re-stock em by getting the books from the overstock shelves..
2. running the books - basically what this is is stocking up the shelves with books from the "back room" .. this room is the employees only room where the shipments of the books are recieved.. people working in the back room would get the books out of the boxes, count them up, and label them with its correct course number (e.g. ENC 1101 80000) so it can be put up on the shelves.. so my job was to get these books from the room and put em on the shelves.. another simple job..
3. filling the gaps - this is a more general job which also involves restocking the shelves but the purpose of this is mostly to exhaust the books on 'floor stacks' .. these are stacks of books na there are SO MANY of em, na it has to be stacked up on the floor.. so para naman mabawasan ung mga books from d floor stacks, u gotta get them and put it on the shelf where it's supposed to be if there is space for it..
4. loading the pallette - what this is is basically stacking boxes of books that are to be returned (i think) on a wooden platform called a pallette, and wraping the WHOLE thing with plastic wrap so as to make sure that the boxes won't move..
5. buybacks - buybacks are the books that the store buys back from the students for re-selling as used books.. what i had to do was separate the wholesale books from the retail books.. then i had to put the wholesale books on the shelves in the back room.. ung mga retail naman, these are the more ready ones for stocking the shelves up as used books.. there were only 5 retail books from the whole stack of books that i did.. what i had to do with this was basically just put some stickers on em and poof! it became koko krunch! ..... ok it didnt but it was ready for stocking XD ..
6. vacuuming - hahaha XD .. since i was staying all the way till closing, wen it was near closing time, i just vacuumed the merchandise / gift stuff area of the store.. .. .. and ON TOP of all this was...
7. helping customers - this i had to do while doing all these other things.. wen somebody looks like they're lost and they can't find their book, i just help em out to look for it.. this was cool kc i got to meet some people who needed the same books i need, thus not only making me know what books i need for my classes, but also letting me know of some people who myt go to the same class i will.. ^^
sub-jobs i haven't gotten a taste of:
- customer service counter, back room duty, and cashier..
co-workers i got to know the names of today: deryk, brad, vickie, john/jonathan, megan, nicole 1, nicole 2, kaci, danielle, ms. cathy, ms. darla, ms. courtney..
my lunch break was a 30 minute lunch break from 12:30 - 1:00.. but actually, ms darla let me do it earlier, so i did it from 12:15 - 12:45..
my sked for this week is 9-7 everyday till friday except thursday (im off on thursday / no work on thursday.. yay XD ..) tpos on saturday, 9:45 - 4:30..
and basically.. that's work.. XD
lemme see.. let's start off with last night..
last night i was trying to do this online training course thing that courtney (my manager) instructed me to do.. so i went to the site, created an account, and wen i get to the page aftr i log in where it says "Please click here for the list of available courses", wen i click on the link.. nothing happens.. i was guessing that something was wrong wth d site or sum'n.. i was kinda worried cuz i didn't really know how important it was to be able to do this course before i can actualyl work.. i tried calling courtney but the number on her business card is not a personal number.. and since bookstore hours were over, i couldnt contact her.. after trying different things, and trying over and OVER to get goin w/ d online training course, and yet it still wouldnt work, i decided that i wake up early in the morning to see if it'll work..
zzzzz...
next morning, gues what! ....... it still didnt work.. hahaha XD .. so as soon as the clock ticked 8 o clock w/c was the time that the store opened, i called the bookstore to ask about it.. the person hu answered said that i can just come in anyway and i can get set-up there..

my 1st day of work.... is tomorrow XD
XD .. it turns out it wasn't going to be my 1st day today .. XD
it was mostly just filling out some paperwork, orientation, and a tour around the store and to the inside rooms that are for employees only..
when i got there, there was only one other person there with me.. her name is stephanie.. courtney, the manager of the bookstore (who is actually filipino XD ..), had us start doing our paperwork lrdy.. 1st was to fill a form giving the hours we're available to work, w/ consideration already of class schedule.. then next was a paper that was just to make a written agreement on the proper dress code (bad trip bawal maong XD ..) .. and last was a tax form.. while all this was happening, 2 more people came, brandy and blaire, tpos they did the same thing.. then the tour, being introduced to the different people already employed at the bookstore.. then lastly, we were just made to write on a piece of paper (a post-it-note nga lng actually XD..) the hours we can work for the next two weeks which are the last 2 weeks before school starts.. so 4 d next 2 weeks ima be workin 9am-7pm mon-fri tpos this saturday, 10am - 4pm, then next saturday, 9am - 4pm.. XD .. that's just how it is XD .. wen skul starts it'll be all different nmn e.. my shifts on most of my skul days is just 3-4 hours, except on saturday where i work opening till closing..
basically guys, what i need from you is prayer.. pray that the work wont be too difficult, stressful, or tiring, and that it won't be too hard to juggle with school.. also, pray that i will still have time have 'me' time, where i can still be able to rest, relax, do things i want to do, and also, TIME FOR ME TO STILL BE ABLE TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH YOU GUYS ..
tomorrow is gonna be my first day and the completion of training.. i hope and pray it'll be smooth.. =) ^^

Binyag ni Diego. ^-^
hehehehey guys =P XD ^^
it was Diego's Christening yesterday (Christening = binyag / baptism) .. Diego is the son of Tito Yancy who is the cousin of my mom and anak of Tito Boy who is the brother of my grandma.. =D
bale yesterday (saturday), the morning was pretty much like any morning.. after lunch, around 1, tita jinky brought me to Target in the Towncenter (Target is like a grocery and department store in one kind of a place XD ..) .. i bought some stuff for skul, more specifically, a backpack, and a lunch-carrier thingy, tpos some khaki pants and a belt for me to wear to work.. i paid for the pants and the belt (w/ my own money) while tita jinky paid for the rest (thanks tita jinky ^^ ..) .. the pants and belt stotalled $48.97 so i paid it with the 50 bucks i earned from babysitting Jon-jon (Tito Jeric and Tita Maricel's son) .. hehe it was totally worth it ^^ :> *smug* .. (50 bucks is a PRETTY HIGH paycheck for one day of babysitting) XD .. so that was awesome ^^ thanks tito jeric and tita maricel! =)
nyweiz after the shopping at target, we stopped by quickly at the Christian store in the Towncenter to get a gift for Diego.. (this is my 1st tym to go to this store) .. we got a Bible w/ his name lettered into it and a pillow to go with it.. ^^ .. while waiting for Diego's name to be written into the Bible, i looked around and saw that they sold some TOTALLY SWEET stuff XD .. they sell lots of cool cd's, most of the stuff ive been posting on my multiply and been listening to recently =D , they sell cool T-shirts w/ Christian statements on it and such, they sell baller-type bands (i plan to buy 1 =D ..) that r cool, (ima buy the one w/ the WWJD on it =D ..), different types of bibles, cards, stationaries, toys, stuffed toys, and stuf u can decorate ur house with.. hehe ^^
after the trip to Life Way (d Christian store), me nd tita jinky went home.. wen i got home, i fixed my newly bought stuf (=D ..) and packed some clothes to stay over at tita norie's .. then tita norie picked me up and we all went to d binyag (except cla tita jinky and tito joel cuz they were gonna go somewhere)..
at d place of the binyag w/c was a church/school (there are quite a couple of places here like that - na church / and school xa in 1 ..), we went to this room where the dinner after the binyag was gnabe held.. we hung out there till the mass was finished then aftr the mass was Diego's binyag.. nice ^^
after the Christening itself, dinner time! XD .. kainan baybeh! XD .. palabok, kanin, lechon, ETC XD .. hehe puro filipiino food ^^ .. so yeah it was nice to eat filipino fud agen XD .. then aftr the dinner and all, we went to tito yancy's new house..
awesome new house man! :> .. we just hung out a bit.. more famil people mingling with other family people XD .. then maya2, we left na rin..
it was quite a drive goin home.. they are a bit far from us, about 45 minutes away.. wen we got home, i made one last video b4 i slept.. then slept.. XD

nung saturday, it was James' black belt test.. hehe it was cool ^^ .. there were dozens and dozens of people who were testing in total.. for different belts.. there was only 3 who were testing for black belt, including james.. there were also a few testing for 2nd degree black belt.. the rest were testing for the lower belts: yellow, green, blue, red, etc..
James had to do his forms (which is basically the term for all his moves XD..) , he had to spar 6 or 7 people including one instance where he had to fight 2 at a tym, and then he broke a couple of boards.. hehe stiigeningz XD .. i gues it's obvious he can kick my butt if he wanted to XD
nung sunday, la nmn maxado nangyari.. i ran in the morning as exercise tpos we went to church in the morning and at night.. and in between, we ate lunch at an applebees, where the food was good but the service totally SUCKED XD .. our food took forever, tpos wen Tita Jinky got her food, it wasn't as she ordered.. something happened in the kitchen pa.. tpos the people were.. ewan q.. basta.. XD
nung monday, nung umaga, me and tito joel cut the grass.. nung hapon, me, tita norie, becca, and james bought supplies for school (since it's 0% tax on school stuff this week *smug* :> ..) and bought shoes at the shoe store in the towncenter.. tita norie bought me running shoes.. YAY! XD thanks tita norie! =) ^^ .. that's great since i might run regularly now since la aqng kahit anong form of exercise.. exercise was never something i had to worry about for 6 years since i was varsity and that was my main exercise XD .. but now that i aint, and also since wala akong PE class, i have to establish my own exercise schedule.. im not sure of how my exercise sched is gna be yet.. pag lam q na work sked ku, then ill know.. ;)
yesterday, biniyagan ku kaagad ung shoes that tita norie gave XD .. hehe ^^ .. i ran again nung umaga and used my new shoes XD it's great! ^^ .. the rest of the day wla aqng ginawa.. in fact nung hapon, i even had a nap wen i ran out of things to do XD .. yesterday was a bummer, not just bcuz of that but mainly bcuz nung gabi, naputol ung 2nd string ng guitar ku.. =( .. amperz nga e.. naputol ung string while i was turning the knob PALUWAG.. huwaaaatsap widddat!?!? i was gna play a song kc where all strings were toned dones 1/2 a step.. by the time i was tuning down the 2nd string, un na.. *toing!* .. putol! XD.. bummer... tapos may naiwan na konting part nung string at the head of the guitar.. so in the process of taking it out, my finger got pricked and it bled.. XD .. it went pretty deep.. by this tym, xmpre nmn banas na aq.. XD .. so i just chilled out till i eventually slept na..

drama amp XD haha =)) .. here goes ^^
=D whatcha think? =D
drama amp XD haha =)) .. here goes ^^
Distant
By Jason Alvarez
Recurrently I wonder
Why you're away from me now
Our fates withheld asunder
We've got to hold on somehow
One choice-less separation
A fork in our binding road
Woebegone Embarkation
A future we all forebode
The dreams we dreamt together
The precious times we cherish
Flown away like a feather
Our friendship must not perish
Wait for the day I come home
Till then, I'll miss you my friend
May our spirits pool and roam
I assure you this is not...
The End
