three days worth of blogging:

found out that the interview place DID call me back for the second interview, but no one told me this b/c my dad, after pressing the answering machine button, only listened to the first message on the tape and not the second! if it weren't for my mom over-rewinding to hear a different message the next day, i wouldn't have even found out about it. anyway, it's been a really busy few days... sorry i haven't been able to really update - it seems we're back to dial-up for the next while or so.... UGH.

anyhow, on thursday i went with adrienne's school (good ol' broadacres... so many good memories in that ugly little building...) to the boyd conservation area as a "parent". yay for supervising fourth graders! nah, it was pretty cool hanging out with my cousin and her friends. plus i got to see a turkey vulture, great horned owl, barn owl, and red-tailed hawk, so that was pretty cool. but it was sorta weird seeing all these little kids (who think they are SO cool and all) and realising that i was once like them...

friday. went to the second interview, which was really more of an observation day actually. found out that the job would pretty much be me standing on the streets of downtown, getting people to sign-up and donate to the humane society... not exactly ideal, but the pay is way, waaaay good... so i'm not sure if i should go for it or not... we'll see... have to decide by tommorrow night.

went out with ju and justin in the evening for jack astors. let me just say this: yum. after dinner, we hung out at chapters for a bit, then headed to a blockbuster to rent a movie. half-an-hour or so later (after entering, then exiting, then entering, then exiting...) and several little "disagreements" later, we decided not to see a movie. sheesh. have you noticed that, no matter who you're with these days, you can never decide on a movie to watch if it's not in theatres? if you haven't already decided on a movie you want to rent (or download) beforehand, there's no point b/c someone will either have seen it already, is not in the mood to watch the genre, doesn't like that certain actor, or just plain doesn't want to see it... GAH! it happened in queen's, and it still happens here... anyhow, after that, we just decided to head out to my place to hang out and talk. had a nice little chat with justin... we must continue it some other time... tuesday maybe? talk/hulk? and it was just so good to see the both of them again. i hadn't seen justin at all for the past year or so, and even though i see ju occasionally at church, we don't really get a chance to talk often. yeah, so things were good. it's always an entertaining time when the both of them are around (because they both squabble and argue so much)! like an old married couple...

today! went to centre island with queens people (vic, jess, marco, simon, xin, vic's little sister) for the dragonboat thing... my mission: to scope out cute chinese guys... was pretty unsuccessful last time i went (with grace), and today wasn't too different... but had a really good time hanging out and seeing them again. hadn't seen them (except simon) since april! yeah, so we went to celebrate jess' birthday (19th!) and enjoy the festivities. yeah, so i picked up a LOT of free samples and stuff (man, one of my favourite parts) and we just chilled out a lot. i made myself some newspaper pirate hats and stuff (but they didn't turn out too well). oh! so guess what, my life became EVEN MORE soap opera-y than normal... here's the latest news: ok, so vic and i are sisters, but i never really liked her when we were younger because she used to always steal my stuff and tell on me, etc. because of this, i have no qualms of being a homewrecker and having an affair with her own husband (my brother-in-law!) xin! he even gave me a ring even though he had no money to buy victoria a wedding ring! curiously enough, if you look at some photos, grace seems to have a ring that is almost identical to my own... am i being played? oh, and vic's trying to keep her marriage alive, despite the fact that she's had her own little "indiscretions" with a certain nick, for the sake of her eleven year old daughter teresa (er, not her little sister)... oh, what a tangled web we weave....

oh, scratch that last paragraph... i was at a "softball practice" and then a "softball bbq" in the evening. in the morning i went "shopping" somewhere in the "east end" and i also had lunch there as well... ;)
