ok so spanish class was fucking retarded. we did a lot, but she confused me so much and i'm so pissed right now. she was writing on the board, then gave an in class assignment, erased the part of the board i needed, so i'm scrambling to get the notes and work on the assignment, run out of time and then she starts doing an oral activity. she calls on me! i have no clue where we are or what the fuck she wants. She asked me if I had something and I was like ' Si, tengo.' :) I felt like all time had stopped and she was angry at me. How fucking rude, there are other people who have no clue what the hell is going on and she's so patient to them, why the hell is she rude to me? I told her in front of the whole class I was copying from the board and had no clue. Then once I knew where we were, I answered incorrectly, of course, so fuck it, I quit. I'm so mad I walked out of class and whipped my sprite bottle at the tree. Ppl jumped out of the way. It was great. I'm leaving now, hopefully I don't assasinate bff and drive the car at 90 mph into a ditch or something.
Enraged and irrationally pissed,

Oh what a beautiful mornin'...
Well, I'm supposed to be in class. It was cancelled. This morning I was going to be late. I just decided to be late, there was no way around it anyway. I think I will go home and back. For those of you who couldn't read my light pink entry, my birthday is Oct 1st and tonight through Sunday I will be in Kentucky with bff.
This morning I spilled a whole blue vat (one full liter with a few sipz taken) onto the floor of my school building right in front of the elevator. I better go home now before someone makes me clean it up. I don't think we are taking a computer to KY, so if you send me mail or something, I may not get to it till Sunday.

Yesterday's post
Sorry yesterday was so crazy. I'm very pink today, hard to read I know. I will now tell you what I meant about all that stuff I wrote last time.
Friday bff and I went up to Chicago. First we went to the museum of Science and Industry. I haven't been there since I was in elementary school, so I was totally excited and thrilled. I have no clue why, because it now sucks. It's a big building, but there is hardly anything in it. One thing bff and I looked at was the exhibit on the brain. There was a section that talked about learning disorders and one guy was saying how he has a deficit attention disorder. I really couldn't tell ya what he said cuz I was half listening and half more interested in playing with the strings that were keeping him in place, lmao. I guess I have an attention disorder :) I bet a lot of you could figure that out on your own just by reading my blog once in a while.
After a few boring hours at the museum, we headed off to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory!!!! bff had been dying for sweets and suggested that we don't eat much all day and then just eat crap for dinner. She just wanted cheesecake! Goofball :) I was being rational and made us eat food lol. Nutzness!!! We went slightly overboard I would say, seeeee I'm an idiot. While driving to dinner I got hungry and ate cheese and crackers that I kept in the car. When we ordered appetizers, we ordered the macaroni and cheese baked balls...wait that didn't sound so good, the baked macaroni and cheese balls, there that's better. ..not really :) AT ANY RATE, the food I ordered was 4 cheese angel hair pasta. I was sooooo full of cheese and stuff by the time I got my food, I ate 4 bites and I was done. It was delicious, but I'm a moron. Ok so I told bff to get me a box if the waitress came back , and she did. I went to go make room for desert. I have to say I was most impressed with the bathrooms!!! *note* I do not have an eating disorder. *end note* OK, the bathrooms were awesome. Dark, like the rest of the place, but you walk in and you see a bench and 3 doors. You go into a door and you have your own private bathroom suite lol. A toliet, a fancy sink, there is a mosiac on the walls...its groovy!!! There was good music playing as well. I wanna sign up for a job being a towel girl there or something lol.
Upon leaving full of an insane amount of cheese, pasta, and peanut butter with fudge cheesecake, and a box for all the food I wasted, we went to the disney store. No major purchases, bff got a stitch, a cute fluffy one, but I was mean and didn't get one, so she had to pay more ha ha ha ha :) I wanted to buy a winter stitch but he looked a pissed off bunny lol.
After the Disney store, we walked around town cuz the weather was freakin gorgeous! The air smelled like horse poop though.
Went home, played mario baseball, blah blah blah lol. Saturday evening we went to see Corpse Bride....eh....ok, not my fave, not my least fave...eh...
Sunday I didnt' do anything but work.
YESTERDAY I WENT TO WORK AND THEN WHEN I GOT HOME I LOOKED UP INFORMATION ON HOW TO BUILD A STITCH BOMB AND BLOW UP JEWEL. Shit, I hope no cops read my blog :D Generally work went well, then Shirley showed up. Even at that she was in a good mood. I fixed that real quick. I didn't offer someone the fucking extreme value buy. I mean, who really gives a rats ass about power bars? I must admit 79 cents is a very extreme value, but bite me. Shirley bitched at me, but I was totally hyper and didn't care. I stayed out of her way. On my way out the door she reminded me to look upstairs at some important postings about the new things Secret Shoppers look out for.
"...blah blah blah....say hi, do you have your jewel card, have you seen the extreme value buy, how's the weather, thank you for shopping jewel...blah blah blha" HOW'S THE WEATHER???? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE???? I went upstairs to get my jacket, and I could overhear Nancy and Veronica talking. "hey, at the next meeting, can you get some sort of clairification on what exactly we lost 2 pts for regarding this 'non business conversation' thing?" "sorry, that's a closed door subject" *melissa stares blankly at them, then reads the posting* Yes apparently when secret shoppers come in now, they are expecting us to be friendly and talk to them about random things...like asking how the weather is....WHYTHEFUCKSHOULDIHAVETOTALKTOYOUIT'SBADENOUGHIDON'T
LIKEDOINGTHEEXTREMEVALUEBUYANDNOWYOUAREGOINGTOPUNISH
MEFORNOTTALKINGTOYOUWHATTHEFUCKINGHELLAREUON??????
Excuse me :) I mean can't we all just get along? Don't you just want to go to the store and do what you gotta and get out of there???? I hope Wal Mart buys Jewel.
In less annoying news:
LESS THAN 3 MONTHS TILL XMAS!!!
MY BDAY IS OCT 1ST AND I'M GOING TO KY!!!
I dreampt 2 dreams the other night

The math that *should* be taught!
What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:If:A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as:1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.
Then:H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
And K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
But,
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
And,
B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T2+21+12+12! +19+8+9+20 = 103%
AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.
A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%
So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the BullshiT and Ass kissing that will put you over the top.

Indian Day
Today's theme is India apparently. Today on Regis and Kelly they kept showing a promo for their 3rd annual Relly awards that are tomorrow and they kept playing the music from Moulin Rouge at the end where the high pitched singing thing goes on. Then I went to my soc class where we got yelled at for havin bad test results, and came out of there and discovered it was Indian culture day on campus, and my neighbor Surehka was in charge of it. Quite a crowd paid attention. They really outdid themselves for the 5 minutes I caught of it. There was dancing, music, costumes, food LOTS OF FOOD AND SO MANY PPL IN LINE YOU WOULD THINK A HURRICANE HIT US, no joke, it was free. Now I want to listen to Moulin Rouge and Tarzan, dunno why :) Had Lion King on earlier.
Tomorrow bff and I are going to Musuem of Science and Industry :) So freakin' happy!!!!! Lots to see, I have to get up at 7am lol but kt doesn't wanna leave till noon and they are only open till 4 so grrrr.

Maggie and Jason D.
So last night was nutz, waaaay too much reality tv on, my head almost exploded ;D Probably won't be buying LaToya's CD right away like I was planning. Just doesn't fit into my schedule. Maybe on pure faith that it will be great I'll run to Circuit City to get it. Anyway, CBS was a huge winner last night. Maggie won Big Brother 6, bleh, I wanted Ivette. Jason won the right to be the new member on INXS. Jason is JD Fortune, btw. I was really hoping MiG and JD would be the final 2 but holy crap, he sang badly. I feel bad for that whole performance. I wanted Marty to sing Trees, but oh well. I figured JD would win. Not a bad thing. I might show a little interest. See, this is where the reality tv show should start - the story of how JD will work with the band lol. Oh well.
I had a lot to say, but I think I will sign off. I am finally preparing to update the damn story blogg, relax. This seems like an appropriate time, now that BB6 has ended....

THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT!!!!!
People, this is a huuuuge day :) First off I have a spanish test in less than an hour, and upon doing some homework for it last night, I have decided I know nothing :) I swear our teacher should just make this class an independant study, cuz I swear I know nothing. I just said that twice, see, that is how stupid I am. I am also starving, so I'm just going to fail and die. BUT IT IS ALL OK BECAUSE WE HAVE MAJOR MUSIC AND TV THINGS GOING ON TODAY!!!!
American Idol's 4th place winner from season 3, LaToya London, who was robbed, releases her album Love and Life today. I nearly forgot!!! Good thing I get email reminders huh ;) In the music tv genre we have THE FINALE OF ROCKSTAR INXS tonight as well. Good grief! I can't even get started on this. I hardly actually give a damn about INXS, but I did hear a decent song from them on the radio today. What you need? I think that was it. The one that MiG got to sing last week. He should win. JD should come in 2nd, which means nothing cuz this isn't Idol, and Marty should just come back to Chicago. They will all end up having someone interested in them. JD has a great voice, and I might be a little bit more likely to pay attention to the radio if they were to pick him, but he just sings the notes to the INXS songs, which is what he is asked to do, sing their songs for them. Marty does that as well, however, MiG put a lot of effort into singing for them. He made it energetic and danced and was awesome. They need him more than he needs them I would say. JD needs them the most lol. Marty has a successful gig with his band, they will be screwed if he is picked. They would only take him for Trees anyway, which is a great song. JD's song is great as well, but they will be scrwed if they pick JD. He's gonna act up and shit. Oh well.
Big Brother 6 finale tonight also and Biggest Loser also is on tonight. They should call it Bigger Loser, cuz I think the contestants are bigger this year so they have the potential to lose more than season one ppl. I have so much shit to do. OH AND THE REMATCH OF DANCIN WITH THE STARS IS TONIGHT. AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! :)

ken
howdy. strange day. went to school and was just generally on the wrong foot and unprepared for everything as per usual :) i kept thinking about my friend nathan gobles from isu so i did a random search and found he had been in a car crash in may. at least he's a live. i figured he'd be in ohio or something.
at any rate, tonight at dinner dude said mom and i had to be good and he'd give us a surprise. we got cake. we asked why. dad said it's uncle ken's bday. we said, but uncle ken is dead, he said i know but the date has been on my brain all day so i wanted a cake'. At least he put a blue candle on it.
I ate chocolate cake
Now I have a tummy ache
Ha aha ha ha :) I was happily watching my food intake today which I do randomly, and it was below 1,000 but that's a long story, and mom's a bitch.Then Dude brought home cake...5,000 calories today i swear lol. I'm going to be bigger than the bed when I wake up tomorrow...if i don't die in my sleep from a heart attack....

unraveling
damn, they haven't cancelled spanish class yet. she's probably here. we are so screwed, we are behind. there is supposed to be a quiz today but it got moved to thurs. i just found out there is a test on thurs in social problems.
today i found out that the only reason marijuana is technically illegal in the netherlands is that it is a public health risk. they view it the way we do smoking. wonder what would happen if they let you have marijuana, but called cigarettes illegal. could be interesting.
i'm unraveling. i need someone. how do i always manage to screw this up? yesterday i just really wanted someone to put their arms around me and hold me, so i went online and i was not spoken to. when other people did talk to me i was probably less than kind to them. major sigh. someone out there must love me.
let me know how you feel.

wow, blogger is actually letting me blog. when i'm at home it usually bitches about errors and cookies and crap. too bad i have nothing important to say. the weekend went well. Thursday nigth bff and I got together for Big Brother 6 and watched james leave i think. then we went to applebees and got daquari's and lot of appetizers that we didnt' eat lol. if you are headed to applebee's get the bacon cheese chips or whatever they are. super good! my daquari was yummmmmy. I had a grande lol. bff was jealous she only got a regualar. well dammit i'm 4ft 9in of course i'm gonna have the grande ;) went to the video store after that and they must have smelled us coming or something cuz the kewl dude who was in there was trying to get me to go into the drop box and screw with ppl. he wanted me to say "thank you for shopping hollywood video" or "OW!" or something when ppl would return a movie. i was buzzed and thought about it, but eh i didn't want to waste time. we got 3 movies for 99cents each. bff is awesome. we got Spanglish with Adam Sandler, which...eh...i will just shut up. we got The Wedding Date with Debra Messing from Will and Grace. that was kinda bad kinda ok. we did get one good movie. everyone go watch Monster In Law with J Lo and Jane Fonda. Jennifer Lopez is a great actress. One day I want to see her in The Cell. By the time we got back to bff's I didn't wanna watch movies and neither did she so we watched MTV for an hour lol. Then I went home. Shows about 'date my mom before you date me' are strange lol. mtv may have finally lot their marble.
friday, my body woke up early, grrr. not much happenned, woke up, cleaned litterboxes, went to bff's and watched 3 movies, ate pizza with her.
saturday...which version should i blog about. i told mom and dad i was going to the popcorn fest with bff in valpo. i did go to valpo, and by 7pm i was with bff, but she did not go with me to valpo. i drove out to meet a guy. great guy, very well rounded, great goals, plays guitar like its easy as breathing. also a great cook and he loves art and a strange martial art / dancing type of thing. he's a hottie, looks like Chris Martin from Coldplay. he's beautiful. i left him around 5:30? drove home and got a call from katie that she and caroline had rescheduled the Brother's Grimm for that evening and I decided to meet up with them. the movie wasn't that great. afterwards we were hungry. ended up going all the way back down 30 because stupid me wanted eggs lol. poor bff just wanted ice cream. she got pancakes lol. similar but different, right ;) we were in 2 cars and caroline offered to let us come see her apartment but because of traffic, bff and i got seperated and i just went home. no biggie. sowwy care. i'll be there at some point in the next few weeks i bet. ok me go for now.
did i mention i had nothing to say? ;)

saturday...which version should i blog about. i told mom and dad i was going to the popcorn fest with bff in valpo. i did go to valpo, and by 7pm i was with bff, but she did not go with me to valpo. i drove out to meet a guy. great guy, very well rounded, great goals, plays guitar like its easy as breathing. also a great cook and he loves art and a strange martial art / dancing type of thing. he's a hottie, looks like Chris Martin from Coldplay. he's beautiful. i left him around 5:30? drove home and got a call from katie that she and caroline had rescheduled the Brother's Grimm for that evening and I decided to meet up with them. the movie wasn't that great. afterwards we were hungry. ended up going all the way back down 30 because stupid me wanted eggs lol. poor bff just wanted ice cream. she got pancakes lol. similar but different, right ;) we were in 2 cars and caroline offered to let us come see her apartment but because of traffic, bff and i got seperated and i just went home. no biggie. sowwy care. i'll be there at some point in the next few weeks i bet. ok me go for now.
did i mention i had nothing to say? ;)

spanish
just got out of spanish class. i don't think i like it. i miss doctora elman from munster high school. she taught things well. this woman seems to be all over the board. further proof i went to a good highschool and never realized it till i went to college. i feel bad for our poor profesora. i don't know what the hell her last name is. starts with z. anyway, she got a call from her home country of peru today and her mother has had a heart attack and it looks pretty bad. she got another call as she was walking out the door and it was from peru but she refused to pick it up. we may not be having spanish class next week.

interesting
last night i was very depressed. today was much better although i was awake all night and only got about 2 hours of good sleep, i woke up at 5:10 and went to jewel by 6. i only worked 4 hours today. i was amazed, i had washed my uniform and my black pants 2 days ago and somehow managed to get out of the house this morning without a single cat hair on my pants!!! minor miracle. there was probably one on my butt that i couldn't see, but...
got to jewel and opened the doors. judy opened and it wasn't bad. we don't have our radio on in the store currently because 2 days ago it was just playing the same 98 degrees song over and over and over so the radio has stayed off. that is actually kinda nice. we don't have to scream into the intercom to page someone, and since it is quiet, people can actually think and pay attention to what is going on around them. everyone seemed calm and nice so that was good. ken came in around 8:30 and that's when i got my break so i was happy. i went up stairs and jane from liquor was up there talking to greg about the hurricane situation down south. jane is a black lady who is super skinny and young looking but may be in her 60s very easily. oh well. she just kept talking about the ignorant people she saw on the news and kept saying "just shoot those bastards" she was so funny. after my break i went back downstairs and was talking to ken and he was just like "make a smaller version of the A bomb and just drop it and rebuild" I was just like "screw rebuilding, make a national park or something" it was just an intresting day at jewel. i was out of there by 10am which was strange. usually i just get my break at 10 lol.
went home, changed into cute blue top and went to school. practically fell asleep during class. i've been so tired all day. my eyes have just hurt. came home and went out to friday's with family. it was dude's birthday. 63! go dude! keep on living :D dinner was yumm. i'm very exhasted now and i have to get up at 9 so i am going to bed. i sweaqr on friday and sat the only thing i'm doing is sleepin since i don't have to work.

oh you people lol
oh you people, you goofy jewelgoers you. yesterday you bought us out of newspapers, today it was hormel bacon. a woman came at 6:15 this morning and bought all the damn bacon we had lol. it was a buy 1 get 2 free thing, but holy mother of god! "as you can see we like this kind of bacon" WELL SO DO OTHERS!!!! She must have bought about 51 of them because that would make it $17 and her total bill after tax was close to 20 bucks. insane!!!
jewel was actually good today. got to read tabloids, kenna opened, the mats had to be put down but they were put away properly so i didn't mind and didn't get too dirty. everyone was friendly. matt came in at 8 and he was kinda happy. ann came in, ken came in, yay! my break went semi well. it got very busy and we couldn't keep up and there was a massive disaster every time i had a cupon. there was a pop idiocy as well.

blog
I can't believe my bloggy is a year old and I have over 2 thousand hits!!! I can't believe I have been at Highland Jewel 2 years already. I can't believe Shirley has been there a full year and we haven't killed her yet. Things are so bad. Once again I would like to issue a statement I made in the past. STAY AWAY FROM THE HIGHLAND JEWEL PEOPLE!!!! There's really no point in you showing up. You'll just buy stuff and then have to stand in line for 30 minutes while nobody does anything....nope, no point.
Speaking of Jewel, the past 2 days have been interesting. Yesterday was the perfect example of bad management. We finally had 3 lanes open, a big improvement for us in general, and 2 managers on the floor. We were insanely busy still and Shirley was just a complete bitch. I took my break and as I was coming down the stairs I heard my name being called and I came down and she just started screaming at me 15 MINUTE BREAKS!!!! 15 MINUTES!!!!! We had really rude customers as well yesterday. You people are crazy!!! Whatever your problems are, it's not my fault, so don't get mad at me. If you are asked for your ID and phone number, shut up and do it!!! Some people rarely have to and some people always have to, bite me!!! Anyway, at one point I believe we even had 4 cashiers, oooo :) Shirley was doing nothing but standing there with her hands on her hips waiting to give someone something to do even though we were all busy enough. She was useless!!! Nancy wasn't in the best mood either because I had a very cranky customer. He was asked for his ID for the check he wanted to write and also asked to put his phone number on the pinpad. He didn't want his phone number on the pinpad so he complained. "i gave my id i gave my jewel card, whah whah whah." I called Nancy over, he was mean to her so she got real shitty and didn't want to help me at all with the problem and told me to call Shirley. Shirley wasn't happy about it either and we kept going round and round until finally she bothered to look at the check, something I should have noticed, and saw that his phone number was printed on his check. Ha ha ha asshole! She typed it in and everything was fine. Maybe he won't come back. One less bell to answer.
Even the cats were nuts yesterday. Oliver ran from the backyard to the front yard, found a big cricket, and ate it on the driveway. Cali was actually being the good one!!!
Today wasn't that bad at Jewel. I opened. When I woke up I wasn't very happy. Awake, but not that happy. Got there on time. Kris was there and had everything set up for me. Very nice. She was on top of things. I had a bagger at 6am!!! I was so fucking happy!!! I didn't have to open the doors! 6-6:30 was the 3 of us bitching about Shirley and all the shit she pulled yesterday and then around 6:55, something very interesting happenned. A woman came in my line with some pop and an entire cart full of newspapers. The Hammond Times. There was some big game today or something for lotto and she needed every paper so she could play. WTF!!! There were 85 newspapers in there. Kris was trying to argue that she really can't let her take all those papers and the lady argued that if it were 75 bottles of pop, she would have to be allowed to take it and it's other peoples luck if there are none for them. Well we would have been able to restock 75 bottles of pop, but we ended up giving her all 85 papers. Her bill was about $150. I hope she wins nothing. Why not just go to IL and play lotto? Idiot. That lady is definately goin to hell or something.
Ok that is my bitching for the day. I open again tomorrow, but no school thankfully. Off to do dishes I go. Happy Holidays ppl!

Also feeling very confused and clueless. I think I made someone mad who I really want to see again, but I'm not sure how to find out. So here is my general shout out to T from D, IN. I'm sorry if ur mad at something. I spoke to u after I blogged that. I hope to hear from you again. If you are mad, just spell it out for me because I'm feeling very dumb.

2,000!!!!!
THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO COMES TO SEE MY STUPID RAMBLINGS!!!! I'VE GOT 2,000 HITS ON MY COUNTER!!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!
Repulsive
Ugga. I'm feeling like I repluse people or something. Sorry for the yellow smiley face on the side, forgot to adjust that. My family is insane, we don't talk nicely anymore, we just scream and act rude at one another. It's sad.
Did anyone watch the results of Rockstar Inxis last night? Was it just me or was Ty being an ungrateful arrogant bastard? I thought he and JD should be the two standing at the end untill recent weeks and then he got all offended, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe he called INXIS racists in a roundabout way. WTF!?!?!?! He got the low number of votes, sang the wrong words to the song, and this isn't a soul band so I'm glad he left, even though he was good. Now they need to get rid of JD for being such an arrogant bastard. Jordace should win :) I really admire Mig I.... he is so supportive. He could shoot JD and then JD would get up to sing and Mig would just stand up and clap and smile and be supportive like a proud father. I like him. Marty...eh....Suzy...eh...Any comments?
I had other things to say but I forget.
