I haven't done all that much this week besides work. Yesterday I had my first short training day in the Floral department, which I'll be working in today and tomorrow to help with the Mother's Day rush. I spent most of the day filling up mylar balloons, which is incredibly more fun than it sounds. I seriously enjoyed myself XD I like picking out which color ribbons to put on them and stuff. Yes, I am that much of a faggot. I have a feeling that is how I'm going to spend most of my 8 hours tomorrow. And I am a-ok with that. Its probably going to be a busy weekend.

On Sunday, my stupid phone's screen broke again. The same exact way it broke the first time like 3 months after I got it. Beware Samsung phones that aren't flip phones, they don't have very much protection over the LCD screen. I had been totally careful with it too, always having it in its case and not leaving it in my pocket for extended periods of time. I don't know how in the hell it broke again. I ordered a cheap GoPhone to stick my sim card in, since I don't get a discount on a new phone apparently until May 31st. Not the nicest phone ever, but its pink and that amuses me. I'm so over the slider phones, fer srs.

My correct Cecilclub membership card came in the mail yesterday. I shall have to take a picture of it later. Now I'm off to the bank to get change to do the laundry.

I had a short day today, which consisted of me doing some odd jobs since there were way too many people there. I did lot duty for an hour and then swept the entire store (considering this is the biggest store of its kind in the world, it took awhile) and then I bagged while having amusing conversations with my co-workers, including one of my managers noticing my necklace and saying "What's with all the snowflakes?" Once I said Japanese theatre group (I didn't even mention they were all girls), that was enough of an explanation for him XDDDD

I had never had to sweep the store before, so I didn't know where the big broom of doom (lols that rhymed) was kept, so the one guy took me to the back to show me. There was one of the meat department guys I'm friendly with there, and since I was holding a broom, he made the terrible joke that I should "sweep him off his feet." Then this conversation ensued:

Me: Sorry, you're not my type.
Meat guy: Ah, is it money you're into?
Me: ..... no.
Other guy: Is it cuz he's not Jackie Chan?
Me: .....
.........
........
well, you're halfway there.

All the while one of the produce dept guys is laughing at how dumb the other two are looking.

I like work when it amuses me.

I also like Free Cone Day at Ben and Jerry's. It was a happy day.

Today was incredibly tiring. I was on register for an hour, and then Candace (one of my fave managers) told me kinda apologetically that I had lot duty for 2 hours since none of the other baggers there were capable of it. Lot duty means chasing after shopping carts. Sometimes literally. It was a beautiful day out, so I didn't really object to having to do it, just for two solid hours can be very very tiring. It wasn't so bad until the last half hour when I started to get extremely hungry and ran over my toe like 3 times XD After that I bagged, which is much more physically demanding than just cashiering, especially when we need to bring the stuff out to people's cars. I'm a very very tired Vicky indeed.

I would just go to sleep now... but we're watching Twilight. LOLz. Lots of LOLz.

Butts.

Oh hay, I just realized I hadn't posted all week. Let's see... where to begin....

Work. Work sucks. Not so much to the point where I am hating the very idea of having to go to it, but it sucks in the way that I only have 14 hours this week. What the hell. They're hiring way too many people and cutting the hours of the people already there. I think I'm one of the part-timers with more hours, judging by who I've talked to. So I guess that's okay. Must keep telling myself that I'm lucky to have a job at all. Baren (the British guy who used to work for my mom and one of her best friends) can't even find a part time job. Any hours are good ones, I suppose.

Also work sucks cuz they got rid of my nice expensive water bottle when I left it there. I bought a new one, I smaller one so I can put it in my purse and not leave it anywhere again. I've also fagged it up with stickers so there will be no question its mine. My Little Ponys, Sailor Moon (and Luna), Cinderella, Hello Kitty, Vanessa and Ashley from HSM, and siennes (Tom, Komu, Rika, Wataru, Kiriyan and Fuu-chan)? Yeah, that's Vicky's. XDDDD

On the not suckage front, I got my Kageki from [livejournal.com profile] ajmeow a few days ago, and have promptly bought the others she was selling. Somehow, we never got any Kagekis before, and damn they're love. Love how nicely they fit into my purse too :D Looooove the portrait of Susshii in the one that I got.... speaking of Susshii....

Susshii is a gigantic purple stuffed Peep.

I'm going to go run my errands now :D

Today blew for the most part. It decided to rain just long enough for me to be stuck in it at the bus stop. I got my schedule for the next week and it totally sucks. I don't have a day off till Sunday, but its still only 17 hours, and almost all those days are retarded 3 or 3 and a half hour days. What the hell. Almost everyone at work had a stick up their ass today too. Suuuuuckage.

On a happy note though, I came home to a big box from http://www.davidscookies.com/, from my mama for what I'm assuming is an Easter present. A crumb cake, a rocky road brownie, pecan cookies, and chocolate covered brownies. Freaking amazing. I love my mommy!

Also Ryuu as Duke Max is bringing me extreme happiness as well. So I guess today hasn't been all bad.

Edit: Today's bento! )
sailorstarmaker: (Seshiru <3)
My 3 day off weekend starts tomorrow. I'm really hoping that I don't get called in. At least not tomorrow. I need sleepies. I thought yesterday I had been getting sick, thankfully now I think it was just allergies. I'm freaking tired right now though. I think the past few days at work just has caught up with me.

Anyhoos, my bento wasn't too interesting today, but I took a pic of it nonetheless.
Beeeeentoooooo... )

Nothing much else going on today really. As of Monday my Cecilclub dues will be paid! :DDDDD

Work wasn't bad today, not too busy since triple coupon week is finaaally over. I was really hyper all day cuz I had a big cup of coffee before work XD I think I need to have coffee before I go to work everyday, lol. Although my having coffee apparently was fuel for a crazy woman insulting me at work today cuz I'm terrible at doing math in my head. I was having some trouble figuring out her change, since she initially gave me $12 for a bill that came to $8.07... and she just kept handing me dollars and it was confusing me. I'm terrible at doing math in my head anyway, finally I understood that she wanted a $5 bill back (she couldn't say this beforehand, or give me the right amount of money the first time). She had heard me mention to my bagger how much coffee I consumed and when I gave her her receipt said to me, "Maybe you shouldn't have coffee before if you can't do math." Yeah, thanks, lady. I was told later that this was also the woman who was standing at the customer service desk screaming on her cell phone. Nice. But all in all, it wasn't a bad day.

For those who are interested:
My bento for today )

Off to make dinner and watch Bolt. Must go to bed at a decent our tonight.
sailorstarmaker: (Seshiii!!)
Reasons why today was awesome:

- Got paid. Not a big check, but not bad ;)
- Got my schedule for the next week. 3 days off in a row, and its the weekend, hells freaking yes. Although they'll probably call me in one of those days. I'm okay with that cuz I want more monies.
- Was on the express line all day. Much better than dealing with the crowds for the last triple coupon day at the regular registers. It was quiet and nice.
- Started a new letter to Seshi while I was on said register. Its on register tape right now XD
- Gaori's Gogo! Need an icon out of that pic. (I'm lookin' at you, [livejournal.com profile] kinnosuikazura ;) )
- Crab rangoon for dinner. Delish.
- Made another adorable bento! )
- Going to Paypal the money to Julie-pyon for Seshi's club in T-minus.... whenever I'm done making this post.

On a not great note...

RIP, Lorne. You were my fave character on Angel. You will be greatly missed T____T

Busy week was busy.

Long week was long.

Finally done with my 6 day in a row work stretch. My two days off in a row are quite earned, methinks. Triple coupon weeks need to die a firey death.

We got our bento supplies yesterday, and I took my first box to work today. I made tiny little square onigiri with hearts indented in them that I filled with furikake, a hard boiled egg in the shape of a bunny, a couple peanut butter crackers and mini Oreos. Adorable, delicious, and perfect for the 15 minutes I have to eat during my break. Last thing I'm waiting on in the mail is my new purse, which should be arriving Monday. Excited am I :D

Money for Cecilclub is being being sent on Tuesday :D Julie-pyon is awesome.

Now, I go to sleep before I fall over. To dream about Komu. Scarlet!Komu...

SukarettoKomu, SukarettoKomu....

Work was really busy today. Saturdays usually are, since a lot of people do their shopping on Saturdays. I was supposed to be bagging, which totally sucks but I wound up being on register for most of my shift. When we don't have anyone in our line we're supposed to go pull the next person over to our line from someone else's, and after I did so this older lady wouldn't stop saying how nice I was and what a wonderful worker I was. She even told one of my managers what a good job I was doing. That made me so happy ^_^ I didn't even work that many hours today, but I'm beat. Yays for Sunday off :D

Went to Bath and Body works after work, since my lotion decided to fart at me after my shower earlier. Buy 2 get 1 free sale? Hells yes. I got new spray and shower gel and GOLD SPARKLY MINT LIP BALM. Its amazing. Its like if you made Tom a lip balm.

Just waiting for an email from daihyou, then I send money to [livejournal.com profile] wao_wao to transfer for me and I'm finally in Seshi's club! :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD SO HAPPY.

Off to cuddle my giraffe now.
sailorstarmaker: (Seshiru <3)
Work has been tuckering me out. I forgot how physically demanding grocery cashiering can be. They asked me to stay late today, so I guess I've been doing pretty well. We had little reports today and mine said good job, but I need to smile more. LOL, I'm grumpy in the mornings. I have pretty sucky hours this week, I hope they'll extend or change them a bit. More moneys = good.

I've emailed my daihyou asking how she wants me to pay my club dues :D Oh, I am excited! Freaking finally ^_^ I decided to join her club like a year and a half ago XD *bounce bounce* Cecil!!

I've also decided that I'm going to start saving for one of those tiny little Asus Eee's. I really want a tiny little laptop, and I found a great deal on one from NewEgg. It'll only take me a few weeks to save up for it (hopefully), and it'll run the same as the laptop I have now, but have a bigger hard drive and a built in webcam and its freaking tiny. For $300. Want want want.

I'm being sucked into the world of bento making. I ordered my first few boxes and things from Ichibankan tonight, now that I actually have somewhere to take one, and it'll be easier than having to buy and scarf down food in my whole 15 minutes of a break I usually have. Plus I've been craving onigiri something fierce. They have furikake at the store I work at, so rock rock on.

Alright, I think its time to go curl up with my giraffe now and go sleepies. And dream that we'll get a freaking shinko cast list so I know what to write to BonBon in my next letter to her ^_^

First time being late to work? ... Check.

I needed to get up at 915 this morning, and I had indeed set my alarm to such. Only it was PM. *facepalm* Luckily I woke up at 1030, and with some rushing and catching the next possible bus, I was only 15 minutes late. They didn't seem all that concerned, thankfully. Actually, they even asked me if I could work on my day off tomorrow, which I agreed to since extra work = extra money, and its only a few hours.

This nice guy at work gave me a ride home at least, so I didn't have to wait for the bus. Well rather, this nice guy's dad gave me a ride home. We are a parents' basement dwelling geek methinks. Considering the balding Jewfro. Just sayin'. I got some macaroons out of the deal too, so not too shabby.

I have Komu drunkenly singing "I am Changing" in my head from Kom in Musical. With that, I think I'm just going to eat the rest of my taco.

*Yawns*

My first day of work was good. I didn't have to do much, just watch a bunch of cheesy training videos and take quizzes after them. I still have a bunch of them to do, so that's what I'll be doing tomorrow. I think I'm going to enjoy working there.

I'm sleepy and going to lie down now, I work in the morning the next 2 days, so I should actually go to bed at a normal hour XD

Woot!

I have job!

I go in on Tuesday at 3 to fill out the rest of the paperwork.

Yatta!!

I had my first ever drug test yesterday for my new job. Seriously, I have to pee every other time, yet my bladder still spited me XD That's enough TMI about that....

Anyhoos, job. Yes. As long as my drug test comes back clean (and there's no reason it shouldn't), I will be working at Harris Teeter, which I affectionately call the Teet, since teet is a great word, however you want to spell it XD I'm going to start off as just a cashier like I was at Redner's, but they told me since I have a college degree and stuff I should move up pretty quickly. Best part though, even though everyone starts out as part-time, I'll still get some health benefits. Which is freaking sweet since I need new glasses, need to go to the doctor and need to go to the dentist pretty damn badly. I call on Saturday to see when I can come in and fill out the rest of the paperwork. It has nothing to do with what I went to school for, but its a really nice store (with a freaking sushi counter with 2 adorable sushi chefs in it!) and the people are so nice, I think it'll be good. I'm just considering myself lucky I found any nice type of job in this economy. Rock the hell on. I like you, North Carolina.

I must locate my camera so I can take pics of Seshigoods. I'm not sure at all where I put the freaking camera... *thinks of something good and American-like to send her daihyou for being so sweet*

!!!!!!!!

[livejournal.com profile] ladybretagne's grandparents stopped by on their way home from church to visit us, and her grandma told me I had some mail from Japan (we changed our address to hers while we were looking for an apartment and haven't changed it to our new one yet). I was a bit confused since I'm not in Seshi's club yet, so I shouldn't be expecting any mail from them, and I wasn't expecting anything from anyone else who's there right now.

I look at the envelope and its indeed from Seshi's club... cue even more confusion. It was a note from my (soon to be) daihyou! It was so sweet, saying thank you for sending Seshi so many letters, that she can't wait to meet me when I come to Japan, and pretty much inviting me to join Seshi's club. She also sent me a club form, the latest club newsletter, two name stickers (a green and a pink one), and, best of all, a stage photo from the Mariposa shinko signed by my darling!! My daihyou is so cute! I'll take pics tomorrow of everything, since her handwriting is just too cute not to share. Lots of hearts and exclamation points too XD

Well, I know what my first $50 will be going to once I get a job. Not like it wasn't going to be going towards that anyways.

Speaking of jobs, I may have one. I find out for sure on Tuesday. I hope.

I'll do my interview questions from [livejournal.com profile] muffin_song and [livejournal.com profile] fubusan when I've come down from my Seshiru high :D
