BIGGEST PET PEEVE...

...at the moment.

When people, aka school friends, who live at home, and the extent of  their "grocery shopping" extends to which place their will eat out at for the day.... Ask you almost every single day to go out to eat even when you've told them that you can't afford it.
THEN they joke and make fun of you saying that you can afford it and blah blah blah, which makes you feel super embarrassed because you actually can't afford it.

 "It's just ten dollars!" they say.
YEAH, ten dollars.
Ten dollars can  buy a week and in my world two weeks worth of food when you have a budget of 50 bucks per month for food.

I DON`T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MY LIFEEEEE. AAAHHHHH.

Homeee, in good ol' Bolton where there are no jobsss. aahhh!! I've applied to over 15 jobs, I've had three interviews and have been to one job fair. I still don't have a joobbb. Plus, my phone decided to hate me one day and completely die. I actually believe it is a living thing and must have decided it didn't like me anymore and just pooped out.  Now I get to enjoy other things liiikee... tinker toy and longboarding.   Even though its sucks not to have a job and to figure out what to do about a phone, I cannot complain. I am just happy it is summer, it's warm and sunny and I already have a bit of a tan and that just makes me happy.  While I continue to look for a job a family from my parents church run their own Lego business. Basically they sell individual mini Lego figures and other specialized items. They buy their Lego in bulk and package it themselves individually. So they asked me to help package the individual figures. Since I'm not doing anything else productive or earning money I figured this was better than nothing.

The figures come in these packages that you can't tell which one they are, and they are all collectible. There are 16 different figures from a number of series. David tells me there are over 10 series, I've packaged figures from series 10, 3, 5 and 7. So now I have acquired the skill of knowing which mini figure belongs to each series. Fantastic skill right?!  Of course I'm going to provide a detailed description of the process of doing this because I obviously have nothing better to dooo. :)

The figures come in packages like this, so that you can't tell what they are.

They either come in a strip that can be hung in stores or in boxes.

I take the packages and cut them open and line them up.

 Then I dump the contents into my hand and then into a zip lock baggie. Suupeerr fuunn. 

 Soooo much legooo.

And more.

 anndd moooreee. 

Thousands of Lego figures. I feel like I'm in my own sweat shop. I've been sitting in this room for days doing this. I may go crazy soon, if I haven't already, but I'm still grateful to at least earn some money.   That's about all I've been up to, but, Medieval Times for the first time this saturday with the Momma! Hurray!! haha I'm a child, but I'm okay with that. 

Counting my blessings.

Today...well yesterday technically has been a great day. No, I did'nt finish exams, I didn't get a job, and I ate spaghetti for dinner...again. This morning brightand early and I mean early 8:00am early, I headed off to leddy library pondering why I hadn't just slept there...then I remembered it was because I think the desks are disgusting and how many germs there are. The day before (the 18th) hadn't been the best day, I was pretty sure I had failed my 8:30AM exam...actually.Why? Because half way through I realized I had been guessing... not because I hadn't studied but because I didn't even have the information in my notes or read it in the texbook...good ol' Roman Art & Archeology. Anyways, today (19th) I checked my mark and found I got a 79.5... my jaw dropped and I know that's not an amazing mark but I swear there has to be a mistake. But that is blessing number 1! Happyy dancing occured. Blessing number two, a wonderful Candace Muller brought me an amazing exam kit, complete with cookies,puzzles, stress ball, tattoos, and verses. Dropped off to me right there at Leddy. *smile*
Numero three!- first take home, super broad question, and for some reason even though it's just another essay I was panicking over my writing style because this prof doesn't seem to like it. I went to the GA who my friends and I have actually become friends with, he took a quick look and said he would take it right then and there if I had a title page..yeessss.
Number 4: last month I lost my ipod, it was in my backpack and then it wasn't. I gave up lookimg for it when I realized it looked like a tornadowent through my room. Today one of my roommates found it in a boot near the front door.. no idea how that happened but I am glad.
Numberr fivee: Realizing how many wonderful,amazing,funny, encouraging people I know and love. For some reason today I was just so happy to have so many Godly friends :).
Things learned today/reminded of.
1.check boots for ipods
2.try to have a better attitude for studying.
3.God is magnificently awesome.
Bring on the summer, let's see what's in store.  :)

Perfect pick me up for a night like tonight. 

Disgusted

I just love having to sort through other people's dirty dishes to find something to eat on, and the fact that they take the dishes I've set aside. I love living in filthiness. 

FALSE.

I've been listening to this band for over a year now, just thought I'd share again.

This is pretty much my favourite song, but I love them all.
