pick up the phone
Wow I haven't updated for a little while... anyway, this last week has been pretty stressfull, especially for my b/f who just graduated a few days ago! Whoooo :) Now we both have to enter the full time job kind of world...

And next monday will be my first day at my new work. I hope it will be fun. Or something. I mean I hope I like it, it kinda sucks when you have to work in a period where all of your friends are having their summer holiday... I mean I can't shop for a whole day, or sleep till late to waste half a day, unless it's in the weekend. :( Yeah I have to lose my student mentality.

My old boss - you know, from the supermarket - asked me if I could work for a few saturdays extra, and he'd pay me cash if I'd do that. Yeah I know I can't be missed HAHAHAHA. But yeah - I said yes... I just couldn't resist. :( I also have to lose my money making mentality... It looks like I'm getting a bit materialistic, everytime I was asked to work I said yes... oh well. Speaking about material. I am in love. I have a new Samsung E900! I picked it up yesterday.

And right now, I am going to play with it. :) Enjoy the weekend my friends. Especially the weather, I'll be thinking of you tomorrow behind my counter. Hmz.

long slow goodbye
This weekend I got a present from my coworkers at the supermarket, along with a card where most of them wrote something. I got a bag and a showergel, and a coupon that can be spend on make up and beauty things. :) I thought it was really sweet and thoughtfull of my coworkers, I mean, they really thought of me. But hey, I have worked there for more than 5 years so hehe. ;) My soon to be ex-coworkers wanted to give the presents and the card to me this weekend, because a lot of them are going on a vacation between now and two weeks, my actual last day of work is the first of july.

My department manager also told me today, that I was the fastest cashier of the supermarket. Hehe I thought that was pretty cool, so they'll miss me this summer. :P But on the other hand, I don't know if that's something to brag about right now lol.... oh well. I think it's really weird that I'm leaving soon, but it's time for something new.

be quiet and drive
Ok I'll just say it: I failed my theory test and I am a bad driver. I think my driving instructor is going to be rich just because of me. It really sucks to be one of those people who can't just... drive. I admit it, I'm not a natural talent when it comes to driving. And it really drives me nuts - no pun intended.

Tomorrow I am going to treat myself with a little shopping. I think I deserve it. :(

here comes the sun

I am busy with learning for my theory exam which I have next tuesday, and I must say this beautiful weather isn't really motivating me... I know I can sit in the back yard with my books and stuff, but the beach is calling me this sunday and I also have to work a lot this week... oh well we'll see what happens.

And today I really really REALLY quit my job at the supermarket. I hope the first of July can be my last day, I always have this kind of luck: my boss is on a holiday. So I hope he won't be surprised when he comes back in about a week! Because finally: I HAVE A REAL JOB!!!!! It's via the employment agency, I am going to be a web editor for the city of The Hague, whooooo. I only have to make some calls next week I think, and then I hope, (when everything works out fine that is! hmz) I'm ready to get some REAL money mwuahaha. So we'll see what happens. I hope it'll be fun.

the other black woman

Sometimes I just don't know what to think about people. Yesterday, when I didn't give a girl a flyer, she came up to me.
"Excuse me", she said, "I also want a flyer."
"Oh I'm sorry", I replied, "I thought I just gave you one five minutes ago, so that's why I didn't bother you again"
"Uhm no..." Silence. "That was another nigga, girl! Another black woman." ...

LOL I thought her last answer was hilarious for some reason. But I didn't really say anything after that, because I didn't know how she'd react if I'd laugh. I mean, it really sounded like self-mockery but I didn't know for sure so I shut myself up. You never know how people will react nowadays. Although I don't think she'd make a big deal out of it. I'm brown too you know.

Yeah I'll shut myself up right now, before I talk even more crap. Weekend!!!!!

how to lose a guy in ten minutes

Today and yesterday I didn't only sit behind the counter in the supermarket, I also passed around flyers in The Hague. And seriously, we have some weird people walking around here...

Like yesterday, I pushed a flyer in someone's hand and when I wanted to pass another flyer, this guy asks me "so.... are you going to tell me something about this?" I froze and I decided to tell him something about Apple's iDays and stuff, since that was printed on the flyer's front, and... well, that was something I shouldn't have done because this guy thought this was an invitation to let him tell something about himself... seriously, he told me almost everything about himself, including his crushes, his love for Star Trek and Hare Krishna. I mean wtf. He even gave me a Star Trek card. I didn't know what to do exactly, but I have to admit: time flies when someone's talking to you non stop.

Today when I passed flyers, there was this other guy. I gave him a flyer before he went into the body shop or whatever, and when he came out of the shop, he came to me again and introduced himself to me? And when he left me, he almost wanted to kiss me on the cheek but he noticed the weirdness of it just in time. Not that I would do it. Seriously, it's weird right? So we stood there when the situation got really awkward, but I guess he felt that way too after ten minutes lol. I seriously have to think about dealing with those people...

And some people are just plain rude. If you don't want a flyer, well, then just DON'T accept it. Don't just throw it on the floor. In front of my eyes. Where I can just hear the paper fall on the street. Omg. Some people don't have feelings!
