busy week this week. in fact been heaps busy recently. bard started. Ilana is doing it but hates it.
we went to lilith fair on thursday... it was reeeeeeeally a good day out... but we did line up an hour for drinks and also an hour and a half for food.... now, some may say.. get out of the line numbskull.. well, thing catch of these line ups was that you pay for your food ticket first.. i know. stupid.
went to ikea. was a bad trip as we were harrassed by some eeejots on the way. dont really wanna talk about it anymore, so i wont . not here anyway. but will probably need to address again as it will happen again cos people are retarded.
anyway i have a new desk (ilana built it) and new patio furniture (ilana unpacked it.) :)
camping was good. ho ho drove us to join the wong family over at cultus lake. we slept in the car as a tent was provided but it was incomplete... anyway, we lucked out as it rained friday night and the car was long, spacious and cozy. not even cold.
sat by the fire, went lake, toasted marshmallows, ate, chatted, drank. very relaxing. back to work tomorow. 4 days off is awesome.
still filling in my forms. will get them photocopied now. i guess. before log gets back from work.
i feel hectic a little. you know. like loads to do. and its not even work related. ) i guess thats a good thing.
my little sister is behaving. we've now had 4 visits. and she is doing as i say as she may have her allowance cut if she misbehaves. will need to do more research into teaching her age group... as feel a little incompetent just reading and completing worksheets.
went to habitat build orientation on tuesday. it was boring.
its a nice evening tonight.
homesick frequently. been thinking about friends and stuff. and how out the loop i am with everything and how bad I am at staying in touch with people... wtf happened there. i gues ive changed. Im pretty crap now. and i know it. so anyway, daisy had her baby. and another baby=mcboob feeling left out.
:(
its cool though. I have a life here now and friends. and things are beginning really. but i guess the tough thing mentally is letting go of some things... I cant have 2 lives right... one there and one here.
or i can but in a different way... and it relies on me getting better at communication...... does that mean i need a new phone and better package? yes. thats the answer. and more skype interactions.
i think i want the iphone. im stil on my budget but it really is about dead.
my wrists still bad huh. waiting on wsbc to get back to me which is long ting. hope it all works out really, as need to get them better. im pretty useless in my life without my hands. |

ilana is opening ice cream. but it is cherry garcia and i dont like it. she wants me to go on mac book pics or something gay like that. now shes looking for a spoon.
she probably squeezed the toothpaste wrong. thats ok though. now shes reading what im writing and laughing. she has a funny laugh. i told her once it annoyed me but actually i like it.
now shes up again. and going in the drawer and asked me why i dont like the ice cream she likes. she gave me choc. she took half an hour to pick that ice cream. fucksake long ting,
now shes just sitting there laughing. like a laughing log. end of entry.
she thinks her name is spelt with 2 Ls but i studied english lit and lang and i know better. she's laughing again like its funny but really i know that she thinks its rude when people spell other peoples names wrong on purpose. she also thinks its rude when people turn up late for things.... in VANCOUVER. get it right moron. its not rude. its the way things are here. its rude everywhere else. but not in the philipines. fili time is like vancouver time. turn up late. or its embarrassing, one time my aunt turned up early.. by accident to a party. none of us were ready. then we had to take it in turns to shoot the shit with her while we each got showered and ready. anyway. nanite. |

the last couple fo months have been pretty cool.see bird lady e'ry day for 6 weeks.. i think apart from a 3 day trip she had to calgary... but its been really nice. apart from when i make her upset. but its not my fault. yeh, im still childish.
anyway. helen was here. for 2 weeks. had a long catchup... as weve hardly spoken for 2 years. but it was the same. so thats goooood. im glad that things just pick up from where they left off.. although its weird as shes a close friend, so not speaking for 2 years was odd... but we havent spoken since she got back to uk either. |

so it happened last monday after dinner and lots of drinks with sunny and weve been togehter everyday since (much like before) but like e'ryday and last night was the first night in 10 days we've been apart. and it is good and nice and great. im trying to be nice. this is the only problem.. alongside the obvious reasons as to why i wouldnt be nice that are not as obvious to her.. and also she goes in sept so sometimes i think whats the point.
today she said she missed me. :) shes in calgary visiting her friends and family.
i like when she nods to herself.
im going to starbucks to plan flow now. pissed. off. really. when will this gap thing end? |

| what does it mean when u lose something |
[Mar. 18th, 2010|12:09 am] |
| [ | Current Mood |
| |  disappointed | ] |
so i went gym today. first i want to make it clear, i am fat now. actually. theres no 2 ways about it.
anyway, more to the point...
i wore both my rings (the third one i used to wear is proper bent out of shape and lives on my dresser permanently), and one of the 2 i used to wear on a chain.. well the chain broke....
so back to my point again, i wore my rings to the gym again today. i wore them the other day too and thought 'what if they fall off when im running and i dont notice... also they are agitating me and distracting...'
so anyway, today i forgot to put them in my locker and luckily i had zip pockets to put them in.
so, obviously i zip them up. i even make a point of zipping my pocket up.
for whatever queer reason, i unzip that pocket at some point during my crap workout.
i get to the locker, go to unzip my pocket, realise its unzipped and hope that my rings are in there.
fuck no. well, one of them is.
im ok though. im going with, maybe its ok. it cant mean too much if i allow myself to lose it...
although it reminds me when i lost them when i 1st got to the country and at oakridge, and derrick drove to the bustop and by something short of a miracle... no wait, it was a miracle, he found them... both of them... one in the dirt on the ground, the other someone picked up, and by chance he asked if the person had seen it. yes, i made my staff drive back 20blocks at the start of his shift to find them.
i nearly cried. and we hugged. that was a nice moment.
will i feel the same way again if its found at the gym... i spose but to a lesser degree. im kindve optimistic it will be found... but if not, im not devastated like i was then. although, its sentimental value you know. or maybe im saying i wont be devastated cos i have it in my head itll be found.
anyway, it seemed worthy to write about. fucksake.
other than that... id like to add. when one has tuesday and thursday off, it does not feel like a full work week.
i would also like to add, i have too much going on and it happened too quickly, now im falling behind. but with nothing in particular. its funny, you go from a few people and a bff and some good acquaintances/friends as they like to call themselves...to a few good friends and things to go to with people within 3 months..... kindve caught me off guard.
in fact i got so much to say, but i have no patience... much like when im on the running machine.
back still bad.. shouldnt go gym... but im not payin $55 per physio session.. it just doesnt make financial sense to go and do exercises in front of someone when i can do them at my gym then ice my back.. yes, thats what im doing now. i guess dr handry was kind enough to massage my back and hook me up with those electrode pad things that feel sooooo good on my back. where does one get one? perhaps people leave them by dumpsters. doubt.
anyway, gonna try and see shutter island again on fri with pureheart, batman, and maybe stephen... me and stephen tried yesterday,. sold out. annoying. hes been nice to me since i told him noone i introduce him to likes him and sometimes even i cant stand to be near him. feedback taken well.
if i could get paid to just type my day to day i would, in this random stream of thought fashion. kerouac - me. we are one and the same. ok, slight claim.
my spelling is worse. i nearly spelt 'claim' just then, 'clame' and had to check myself. i dunno what thats about.
so lets just go back to the intial point... im ok i lost that ring. i reeeeeally am. but obviously not really. but mostly i am. just keep saying it. lol.
big sisters training session tomorow. yay! and low and behold.... my background check came back clear. phew. kidding. |

pureheart was over last night watched hurtlocker.
she left around 3.30am... but i could not sleep.
been restless ALL week.
not looking forward to work, but am looking forward to being tired to sleep.
i do wonder if its something to do with my back, i wake up wanting to move and i agitate it. fuck, i dunno,
other than that, another week off to do abso-fuckin-lutely nothing would be nice.
heart bed.... even if there is no/minimal sleep involved there. |

knew i shouldnt have waited for him. i could be in london or san fran. argh. makes me mad. anyway, suitcase is packed. kinda just wana go explore and chiiiiillax for a few days.
been eating 2 avocados a day with mushrooms... i really dont know what thats about.. but its ongoing. is that bad for you?
have spent last couple of days resting my back, doin errands, and organising my mess of a life... or my cupboards/wardrobe. makes a huge difference to how you feel when u clear shit up.
had brunch with helen and uncle jenko at the diner. highly not recommended... scary english place. that smells like scary old english place. well, not highly not recommended... cos the lady was nice to us and the food was good, just dont bring me with you. although, whys it called the diner? english would be 'mr patels cafe.' no?
see what i did there? i made a joke.
train to chiliwack leaves at 10a.
trying to be nice to ilana. but i cant help myself. i dunno why shes putting up with it. and yet im stil being testy. im retarded.
wanna go chalking tonight? anyone?
now, i know i shouldnt, but im gonna try the gym now.... ok?! dr handry will be angry if he finds out so no telling. later. |

| 2010 - a whole other kind of stupid PART 2 |

| [ | Current Mood |
| | tired | ] |
as i ventured in to downtown, they were in the process of replacing the part of the flag that was vandalised.
finally.
good call.
i own tooooooo many logo t shirts now... by tooooooo many i mean, i own 2. which is def 1 too many, if not 2.
working 4 shifts 3-0000 this week... which weirdly enough is tiring me out depsite knowing im capable of stupid hours all day and night... it kinda sucks but is cos of the physio in the morning.. which was actually worth going to this morning, as the doc seems to know what hes doing. and he's handsome too.... even though i dont really dig the asian boys. yet, it was still a bit too much like a lesson when he asks me questions and wants answers like when im on my back im told the following...
'imagine theres sstring attached to your belly button and someone below you is pulling at it... what happens to your stomach.'
well, i give the smart ass answer of 'the string gives me rope burn on one side of my stomach and my stomach flattens...'
he didnt like this very much, and insisted that my stomach would just flatten. 30 reps of this. booooooring.
anyway, day 2, $120 out. im doing my sitting excerises as i sit here. evn though i was partyl commited to the gym, the more im told i mustnt go, the more i want to go. theres a psycology breakthrough if ever i heard of one.
this month has not been cost effective.
and i need a new phone. mine is just about kapooot.
iphone?! tempting..... |

| physio |
[Feb. 24th, 2010|09:42 am] |
i dont waaaaaanna go again.
i think if its not a quick fix, then its not right.
i went yesterday and this dude says see you tomorow to me... like people dont have work or commitments. well, i fucking guess not, cos im about to see him again... not only that, hed 'prefer' if i didnt go to work.' and reckons i mustnt stand for more than 30 mins at a time... really?! lets be serious for a minute. \
then i told him i went gym the night before... and im trying to get ready for the diva run in march... well, he didnt like that.
it was a funny experience through all this bitching... even more so, when i think this guy lectured me about the spinal cord, and talked me through the names of the bones like i cared. i was paying to learn the exercises and get better, not for a biology class. i think he thought i was interested even though im the worst customer/patient in the world. horrible horrible horrible... still feel bad about the telemarteter call yesterday
and the worst thing about it... the whole place is...dun dun dun.... asian. just like oakridge... ok, ok. it aint a bad thing. just.... when i walked in, i thought my doc had sent me here for my sins.
clenched my teeth pretty bad last night. dreams... why did i get on a bus naked with just a safeway plastic bag with something in it to cover a full frontal shot... and i sat down (and got on) normally.. and was then annoyed the old man i sat next to moved seats! lol.
... jst to clarify, this was a dream. amongst many. having about 3 or 4 dreams a night at the moment. i wake up regularly. so that explains that. but at least i get back to sleep.
did something dumb. my horoscopes.. yes plural.. all said tO!. so i did. bollucks to you haters. |

sober sleep.gonna see how that turns out. gonna try to sleep without the aid of ANYTHING! i think il be fine tonight.
it took exactly 2 hours and 20 mins to get home tonight. door to door. dt.
totally still feelin grossed out and like the biggest bitch in the whole world for pulling a chris on rod yesterday.... oops i did it again. - just like britney...and uncle jenko said it well i think... lonely. but nice wouldnt be a word id use. i wish spastrid was here. i need one of her hugs and cuddles.
so, that inspired me to tell jeff about you know what, and the bugger still wants to hang out. balls. i really dont get boys. adam admitted he still liked me a lot in a drunk state the other day at karaoke.. we all went to some random bar after. it was good times... but man... i reeeeeeeeeally wish i connected with one of these boys. life would be simple. christ. but as i was saying to rod yest morn - 2 dimensional, lack of levels to interact, and just.. well nothing... prob exactly what he wanted to hear. apart from a base attraction.. nothing. head fuck. i hate things i dont understand. i need to stop hanging with guys. i never did it at home. i miss having girlfriends... and girlfriend. :(
made assoc cry today... 'oops i did it again'... i already made someone cry last week! must be what heather says. lol. um...
8 day inca trail anyone? its 1000 bucks on the flight centre.... im gonna investigate.
kinda considering it even though its a tour. sounds like a trip away from here and what is fast becoming normal. i think here is for now. and def where il end up. but i def see me living in nyc in the future. the more and more i think about it, the more im setting my mind and sights in that direction. i dont know why i dont just pick somewhere warm.
im totally pepped out... ive been fake to all my colleagues and superiors today and they loved it.. all gapped out! what a fuckin puppet i am. why the game? why not just call it what it is. although lloyd did refer to oakridge as the beast today.. and thats the truth. his exact words were 'the more and more we delve into oakridge, the more apparent what a beast it truly is.' i had to stop my self from saying my exact thoughts, which went a little like 'well, there's a newsflash detective. good luck to anyone who enters and succeeds. - i doubt one person alone can do it, but u didnt listne to me last time, or the time before that, or the time before that.' - but i didnt say this. cos i like that guy and he's just doin his job.i know he has an actual personality somewhere and he's just teaching me to be my job too. and im totally being QUIET as a mouse this month, answering questions and not asking.
anyway, that is all. couldnt chalk tonight. had urges to do it in kits tonight. even took a tub of chalk with me to coq so could jst do it on way home... but alas, there is rain. boooooo. |

soooooo excited about getting drunk and not having to commute. thats really sad.
been stoned every night for the last few weeks... turns out i perform in my job better as an addict as opposed to a drunk...reliving 2006-7. good times.

lilith fair 2010- sooooo excited.
heather here in less than 2 weeks. planning what we will do! tubing yay!
here is the man situation... and if we're all honest.. its becoming a situation.
meeting adam for karaoke and driiiiiiiiiinking madness tomorow. considering meeting up with browns bar man ray (went with sarah pc and had fun last week!- someone else who likes counry music and horror movies!)
and having coffee with accidental date rod in afternoon.
have to work out if im actually gonna go on a date with a coquitlam customer jeff...drama.
should meet up with the only one who doesnt fancy me, but is a douchebag... stephen.
fact - tooooooooo many boys.
coquitlam. fuckin wish it wasnt so far, cos having a good time there. although, im couunting down the minutres to hometime like i did when i was a sales assoc... which means i could probably be doin more.. but im doin a good job and i know it. and just my job. :) no one elses.
should i swing by oakridge.... man that cord still aint cut.
but its like family u know, 2 years. majority of time i have been here. very safe place. and consistent.. consistently bad... but consistent.. lol .

my fave song today. this shall be another repeat subject matter in blog. even though i hate people that post lyrics. HATE them. i like me though. i am awesome.
Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue,
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see,
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
Well the room is crowded, there's people everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it,
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
I can see that you are lonesome just like me, and it being late,
You'd like some some company,
Well I've had two, I look at you, and you look back at me,
The guy you're with has up and split, the chair next to you's free,
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout.
Turn around to look at you, you're nowhere to be found,
I search the place for your lost face, guess I'll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you.
first time i heard this was on ally mcbeal.. the bon jovi version. :) xmas time soon. ally season. |

london metro - fact and honesty - i still always read gem and lib. so im posting both till i stop. hopefully one day.
Libra September 24 - October 23
Work’s on your mind. You want answers. You want to know what a certain person is going to do. Focus on what you need to do, it’s sure to be a far more constructive course of action.
Gemini May 22 - June 21
Resist the temptation to tell more lies to cover those already told. It’s only by taking a step back, that you will be able to see the correct path to take with your life.
i was on a bit of a downer yesterday.. i think i snapped out of it. mostly. i always always always forget the impact one person has on me and my being, i really had to focus all my energy away from what felt like a hollow in my gut. thats all i can describe it as. the initial impact of hearing something, anything about this person never fails to create that hollow. i always think im ok, and it takes a simple sentence, image, dream.. etc to take me back to the gut thing. i just have to not think about it.
hell no on tears though. yesterday i just refocused. and although i went out with lani and her friends last night in g island, drank somewhat a lot, i still woke up at 5.30am today. cleaned bathroom. made coffee at leisure... unrushed.
considered going to work. i have to value my time more. there is a price on everyones time. someone said that to me recently. im gonna TRY to start applying it.
I applied for a lot of volunteer thigns today. i reeeeeeeeeeally need to be more outgoing and not coccoon myself at home. i also should be nicer to the people i wanna hang out with more. i cant help myself. im predictable. i know. but i never used to stay at home. if not for lani last night, i may have gone out on my own. but i like people. and i only like afew people here, and lifestyles are different here. so in order to meet new people i like to hang around with, i HAVE to make myself go out more, on my own or with people i dont want to spend my time with... not in a rude way, but in a tolerant way. im selfish that way, im used to only giving my time to people i really want to be around. and seeing friends and others in between or with. i dunno how that sounds. frankly i couldnt give 2 shits. thats me. i dont expect everyone to understand.
anyway, i ramble.
im quite looking forward to prospect of volunteering. ive been quite specific and looking at music, sports, coaching, mentoring mostly with young people. I HOPE someone gets back to me. sent about 10 emails. was on a roll this morning.
today, i plan on not going to work now, but visiting a gap. i plan on buying a new camera and converse and writing in starbucks and walking around. maybe new trainers. will badger people to meet me in btw for coffee but dont think anyone wil come through. very dif here.i just have to get used to it. be more accepting. but the comparisons come first ... and bitching... before accepting.
tonight i meet uncle jenko and we go to trannys house. i havent seen her since she got back from the op! this will be fun fo sho.
k, bye |

| its all too gay to function |
[Nov. 9th, 2009|12:35 am] |
things that annoy me, number 107...
if one is sick, it annoys me that it is expected that one make up those sick hours later on in the week. its not just expected cos of give and get, its just expected generally. i think this is gay. and it is mostly gay cos i actually have plans.
i went in, SICKYPUFF, at 6 today. left at 11.30... got stuff done, but not as much nor at speed of normal mcboob self. staff slow, cos i am slow. fact. cant talk. throat hurts. lose lose.
sooooo...there is no way flow will land well, cos im actually the only competent manager at my store who can land flow apart from cell mate and shes days. everyone else can do it but has little/no experience in merchandising. i ask you, have u ever been to a gap where a manager has never landed a flow. trust me, its not what don and doris would have wanted.
anyway, either way i lose right - sick for flow, no one there to run it. bad pass off cos of time of sickness, bad set up cos out of store last week, sick day of placemnt.
im sooooo frustrated.
hopefully the meds wont cause more crazified dreams tonight. i want to be in store for wednesday. |

so just went on the site for first time ever. actually some funny stuff. great one liners.
london metro horoscopes - 'Someone’s looking for you. They want to tell you how much they regret what went wrong. Will you listen? If you do, you’ll be pleased to know you weren’t paranoid, but spot on with your instincts.'
i actually dont know what this means. its quite specific though. straight is the worst though. |

visit week over. lights on next week. i l my team. apart from maybe 3 people and all the people i have yet to meet. obviously.
had dinner with sunshine this week at knight and day - big mistake - likened to eating a tub of lard i think. stephen came . too intense. when i introduce him to people i really like our dynamic together as 2 people, but when he starts talking about something, he needs to ease up. some people dont know how to take him! jeeez. how do u tell someone that. at least i know im rude.
drinks with hot girl and her bf who i call 'jo' even though his name is matt. she reminds me of jeannette from home and he reminds me of jo (vietnam jo aka albert - not jk) anyway, went to subeeeeeeez good drinking times AND DONT think i was toooo offensive. cept... now im sickypuff. again. think i worked alot.
coffee was had with jd.i cant make eye contact. she is still pretty awesome. it was kinda nice to see we have one thing in common. or had one thing in common. i rememember years ago just loving off the travel section in book stores. i was telling her how they deeeeeeeeeeeepress me now. i know ive attached a lot of things to it that i may as well remove. y?! so retarded. so it was kinda nice to look at it again, from another perspective. and i dont care that its cos i like her, il make more effort to reacquaint myself with my former love of the travel section. stooooopid rain. didnt get to see the upside dwon cars at robson:)
ended up doin flow then headed to help at richmond. = sick. tired sick yo. bad times weekend before lights on. and dont think il end up goin to tre and simones housewarming tomorow.
it was fun working with bunch of randoms this week and different stores. let me miss my store. oooo! im excited. i finally have a full team as of next week! wtf?! how did that fall in to place. a full leadership team and a full brand team. as in, i will never do anything again. and then they'll prob move me after xmas. no thanks. i dunno what the fuck is up with all that though. its mental. i made my team already. all i want is assistant brand. we'll see what happens. cross that bitch bridge when we come to it.
3 funny things i heard this week -
the flagship store reffered to as the pirate ship - bff
early xmas retail experience likened to premature ejaculation - jd
xmas threw up on sb. - dc b4 that there was of course the hi, how are u? me? thanks for asking, text. that made me smile also. or something like that.
o, and someone told me that site, fml...chick was running and someone stopped her and said she thought it was awesome that people her size felt comfortable enough to run in public - fml. hahaha
anyway, must to bed.
ooo, another thing... baby mama - funnier the second time. |
