Talkin' Bout My Generation!

Work work work. That's all I do these days.

I work for a video game store and that's probley the least thing I do. Play video games. I find time to play MW2 maybe once or twice a week after work or between school breaks from work. Meh, life isn't about video games. It's about cake. Delicious cake. Too bad the cakes a lie, and it REALLY actually about Pie. We all know Pie is greater than cake.

Communication presentation today... Totally winging it. I love just going up there and bullshitting my way to get a good mark. Thank god I have golden street smarts. Without em I don't think I'd get anywhere in this world. Remember kids, it's not "What you know" it's "Who you know" that counts. All that "if you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything" is a load of garbage. "if you know somebody upstairs, your set."

Know what I hate? People who meddle in my affairs!! Arrrggh!!

What the hell. Hopefully this works out. [Are you happy now Krista-Lee? Lawls]

Semester 1 is wrapping up. Here's to hoping all goes well.

Socially Unproductive

Oh man. So much has happened since my last post!

Work has been going in the right direction for once. Everyone is doing their part and the store is rising in rankings, eventually we'll be a high-volume store. We would already be one if previous managers weren't clinically retarded.


So Modern Warfare 2 is out. DID YOU BUY IT? Game did $310 Million in 24 hours. That's more than any movie, music, or game ever released. Gotta hand it to Infinity Ward, they set the bar with Call of Duty 4. Then met and raised it with Modern Warfare 2. The story line continues pretty much right where you left off. Multiplayer is for the most part the same with some fine tuning, I really like how they made Perks this time around so versitile. It's actually a hard decsion when you have to choose your perks, where in COD4 it was pretty much: Claymores/Stopping Power(or UAV Jammer)/Last Stand. Each perk is very useful and unique!

Pretty boring weekend just passed. Everybody bails! Friday I was supposed go to a Friend's birthday party in Hamilton. Didn't pan out because I got called into doing some extra work stuff. Kinda sucks because I haven't seen Hope since high school. I need to make it up to her, go there and see her, maybe when Christmas break hits. Saturday I was supposed to take Amber out for drinks and some other fun stuff. Her story changed within a day, kinda sketchy. I mean how do you get "last minute" birthday plans. Birthday plans are usually made well in advance! Oh well, too bad so sad. Went out for a beer with Cort yesterday, got caught up in a lot of stuff, personal and work stuff. Funny guy, really need to hang out with him more often.

So here's something crazy. Krista-Lee, the girl I really liked and hung out with frequently during the Summer, who started to like me back but was in a relationship so decided to shut me out. Decided to give me a shout the other night. Yes, she broke up with her boyfriend. Honestly though, those feelings aren't really there like they used to be. Although I want to be her friend again, we definitely had some good times.

Vinny and Dayla are having relationship issues, and I'm stuck in the middle. It's so frustrating to be in the middle, seriously. I hear the same damn story twice. I just really wish they would patch things up. They're meant for each other but if it's going to work, they're both going to have to make some changes if they want it to last.

Here's to hoping I win the lottery or Jingle Bell rock tickets!

Been so confused lately...

Midterms are over this week. (thank god) I did horrible on Economics. Inventory and Computers shouldn't be an issue and I have yet to do Purchasing (tomorrow) and Communications (Friday). Seeing how Purchasing is all true/false and multiple choice guess and our proff gave us all the answers to study with!

Last week we're the Casby awards and I want to upload pictures but I'm still waiting on a few from the digital camera I used, as soon as I get those pictures I'll upload everything, promise!

As for the awards, they we're really fun. Good sound by the Arkells, ill Scarlet, Metic, Mother Mother, and The Stills. All my style of music so I really enjoyed myself. The Koolhaus was a pretty neat place too, however I really regret predrinking somewhere earlier, the drinks we're very overpriced. Almost $8 for a CAN of Molsen Canadian, crazy. Overall, really good turn out.

On a side note, I'm getting really good at sniping in Call of Duty, just getting more and more stoked for the sequel next month. Apparently everyone's going to a club tonight with a 80s & 90s theme. I'm still not sure if I'm going.

Audible Sigh.

So much going on in November. People's Birthdays, Modern Warfare 2, New Weezer Album, New Foo Fighters Album. Looking forward to all of it!

Yes. Weddings.

Stephanie and Adrian are officially hitched!! As of right now they are in Hawaii enjoying they're honeymoon together.

I has a really great time, I'd have to say the most fun was the receiving line at the beginning, doing shots with everyone that was attending left me a little woozy afterward, but I pulled through, didn't even get sick or anything.

Video attached is the dove release they did after the ceremony. Pretty neat, never seen one of those up close.



Watched Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2 yesterday, and seriously, if you haven't seen those movies, you must watch them back to back. I never had that luxury when I watched them in theater's... I really need to go see Zombie Land, and I want to take Marita to see Where the Wild Things are, apparently it's a really good redux of the original book, which is shocking because most remakes are absolute shit these days.

Casbys this week. Thursday!!! So stoked. Gonna try and get there as early as possible, need to get some sweet seats.

Really don't got much else to report. That's it for now.

Oh one more thing, don't give people your folded/crumpled money, it's so damn rude. So annoying...

Wedding Bells

Rehearsal dinner tonight.

Went to the church first, and I gotta say, whatever happened to just getting married in a Catholic church? Seriously, there's so many stupid rules and regulations. For example, one of Adrian's relatives was going to say a passage from the bible, but one of the church...staff? Found out that they weren't baptized in a Catholic church and dis-allowed her to read the passage. That's some bullshit right there, I mean, come on really? I got really annoyed when the staff kept saying it was sacred, and it would ruin the sanctity of the church. Get real lady, you know what destroys the sanctity of the church? Suggesting what people should donate.

Anyway, we went to "Fish House" after for dinner with the bride and grooms parents, and the bridle party. Really cool place if your into seafood, it was a set menu, I was tempted to get ribs, but I figured, when do I really get the opportunity to have Halibut anyway?

The bridle party was given gifts after dinner, every Groomsman got the same thing. A tie, and cuff-links, however the cuffs had our initials engraved in them. Pretty sweet deal.


Anywho, Stats test tomorrow, gotta get some rest!

Here's the video I took when Bookie got the call from Dave Grohl. Look forward to them being back!

I love Queens of the Stone Age.

Title self-explanatory.

Yesterday was interesting. Went to BP with Marita. We got "pizza bread" for an appetizer, now really? Why don't they just call that shit "Cheese Pizza" because that's what it was. $6.99 for a personal cheese pizza for an appetizer, don't get me wrong, it we amazing. Just stupid that they have to beef up the title like that.

We had to park in one of the handy Green P parking garages, however on the way out instead of having to put my ticket in the pay terminal, there was a ticket there already in the slot, and when I grabbed it the intercom turned on and a guy had asked if we had gone to see a movie.

After a LONG pause I responded "...............uh.....yes." and he let us go for free! Which is awesome because that parking can add up quick.

After helping Dayla with her homework we headed back to Marita's... she doesn't have a lobby key, nobody was showing up and about 20 minutes passed by. I was contemplating just dialing a random number as saying "Hey, it's me" and naturally the door will just open. At the 30 minute mark I just looked at the door and thought to myself "eh what the heck" pulled on the handle, and it was OPEN. It was open the WHOLE DAMN TIME.
