Lazy Days

So I wasn't suppose to work today, but my manager did an awesome thing.  She decided that she would give me a shift today, but pay me for "working" last week.  Yeah.  I'm happy.  It's almost like getting free money, which is exciting especially since I only got the three hours next week.  It also saves her back because the hours suck balls next week so everyone only gets 3 hours.  So I'm pretty happy that she asked me to pick up an extra shift. She was going to give me a shift from 9-5 (which is 8 hours minus break) but I thought I might need to do some studying, so I worked from 9-1.  The even better part was that all I had to do was do shipment in the back by myself! So it's pretty much like I take out clothing from the boxes and put it in the back stockroom while texting and listening to my music by myself.  I don't have to deal with stupid customers which is awesome! They annoy me.

It's also kinda funny cause when I got home last night I was talking to my roommate about how I was working today so I could pick up her charger and she told me that she wished that she would get more hours because she has plans to go on a couple vacations this year, to like Montana and I think Vegas during April.  And that's fine, but apparantly (this is the kicker) she told our manager (remember we work at the same store) that her "father was cutting her off" and that she needed to pay bills.  My managers thought that was really funny. And of course I was like you little liar! This was coming from the girl who told me that she hates liars and that she never lies because she always gives it away.  I just wanted to be a five year old and stomp my feet at her like "Liar liar pants on fire!" but I didn't think that was mature for my age.  But I'll be honest her dad pays for everything! Like she always tells me that it gets annoying to call home and whine at her dad and ask for money, and sometimes I kinda look at her in total shock.  I mean I never ask my parents for money. It's not that I don't actually need money, its just I feel like they already do so much for me in the first place, that I shouldn't have to ask for more money just to get by.  Like I live pay check to pay check, paying off bills, and not spending money on anything but the essentials, but I mean that's just because I was stupid.  That's it. I was stupid, not my parents.  So they shouldn't have to pay for it, right? I mean I was talking to my mom on the phone tonight about weddings, and she said that the bride/grooms family would be paying for the wedding and said that because my sister will probably have a small wedding (another story in two seconds about that) that I HAVE to have a big wedding. It's not even my choice anymore.  So I don't want to make my mom pay for my schooling when I have, after my BA is done, probably another 2-6 more years depending on whether I want my Masters or Ph.D and then a wedding to top it all off?  I don't know.  Maybe that's just me.  But I mean, they raised me to be independent.  I didn't get an allowance when I was growing up, I had a job all through highschool to save up for University, got scholarships, and got a job during University.  I don't like borrowing money from anyone. It makes me uncomfortable and I feel as though I am in debt to them for thousands of dollars when really it is only like $20.  Ugh the life of a poor student.

BUT! Good news.  So. About work. Because I am taking summer courses this year, in order to graduate earlier and not have to pay rent for another year, my managers were talking to me about getting Key Holder position during the summer and the fall.  So that means that I get a $2 raise! and will be guaranteed hours in this ghost summer town! So as long as I continue to make them happy with my work then we are golden! And, my favorite part, because I will be getting key holder, they will be PAYING me to go get my certification for CPR and all that jazz.  It's a 16 hour course people. And all I have to do is literally listen to the lady and take a test at the end! Fantastic.  So stoked.  And it's even better because its during reading week so I can actually go with my two managers and just hang out with them!  Fun times. I just found a song on my computer that I didn't realize was on my computer so now you all have to listen to it via YouTube because I thought it was very fitting:

Anyways.  I am rereading this blog and realize that my title is about lazy days, not about work and bitching. So.  I said previously that I only worked 4 hours just so that I could go home and study. Yeah well I decided instead to go to the skating rink and watch my friend try out her new sledge to make sure that the blades weren't too close and while she was doing that I was going to study for my midterm.  Well. I didn't.  I instead looked at my notes, got bored, started watching people skate and tried to decifer who the father was in this one group of children and then I decided to play some mini games of Plants vs. Zombies. (I have a boring life, get over it). So after that we went to SportsCheck to buy some skate gaurds and then I went home because I was going to study.... 2 hours later I awoke and realized I was suppose to be going to a friends house for dinner, and after dinner we decided to play Harvest Moon (another video game that is fantastic! GameCube!) and now I am home writing this blog.

Laziness: 9 hours.     *WINNER!*
Studying: 1 page or 30 minutes.

COMPLETE RANDOM THOUGHT-NESS (from above). Right here. So. My sisters wedding....?  My mom thinks that her boyfriend of four years will propose while they are in Hawaii, two weeks from now, because they keep talking about wedding and engagement rings and everything.  But I don't know. I mean she wants him to propose after she graduates, which degree I don't know, but that wont be for another 2 years. Then if she gets into education then it will be another 2-3 years. So I don't know. If they get engaged though I'm going to lose my mind. Just because she has already told me I will be her maid of honour and I have no idea what I would do. Totally screwed.  I have to plan so much shit. Shit! I'm already stressed as it is, please wait for another 2 years before getting engaged/married. Mind you I would get a vacation out of it.  Which would be nice.... Meh.
