last night

i swallowed an insect.
i was walking out of my friends house and i must've breathed in too hard or something.
god it was gross.

I've found an explanation for my sudden outbursts of anger

and im SOOO happy!
I've realised that I become a totally different person when I'm at work. I am perpetually happy, nice to ALL of my co-workers asking them how their week was (amongst other things that I don't care about), agreeing with them about random things, asking customers if they need even MORE help and i tidy absolutely everything.
I'm soo peppy that it supresses my anger. Like, when customers tell me to leave them alone, or they hate everything i show them (well then get the fuck out of my store!), when the manager changes shifts and i have no money, when I stuff everything up or when it's just a really slow day.
So (according to the Corinne on the Glasshouse) for me to be normal, i have to be angry randomly. Even when i have good day at work i am angry at myself for being stuck in a shitty job...know what i mean girls?

Its the thought that counts

I had a tutor today who was purely impressed that people had actually DONE an assignment that he set. He was so surprised that anyone had done it that I would go as far to say that he was overjoyed and that everyone had.
We argued that of course we did it because a) it's an assignment b) it's worth 20% and c) didn't we have to or we'll fail or at least you'll get angry and yell? He told us that all these reasons hadn't stopped people before.
So, maybe for the next assigment I will just think about doing it - that's got to be at least a credit right?

does this bother anyone else?

The picture of Halle Berry on the cover is NOT what she looks like in the film. Her hair is different, she doesnt look despressed and she's wearing a bra.
but the other two look like how they do in the film. So, what? they just decided that she's too ugly the way she looks in the film so we'll just put a picture of Halle Berry on the cover to entice people?
thats just false advertising!

good movie though...

grunting old men and graffiti on cars...

That's Ashfield for you.
The best is the sign at the buffet that says:

take all you can eat

eat all you can take

something something

(what was it again zana?)

basically they will charge you $9 for waste.
what has the world come to when there are regulations on food in a BUFFET?!

Also, while we were walking out the security guard was sitting on the couch with some old guy who grunted as we walked past. A certain friend of mine (who didnt actually notice) seems to think that old guys like Asian girls because we remind them of their Vietnam War brides (?)

Anyhoo, next time, I'm opting for Sizzlers.

Premature grey is so hot!

another crazy weekend in the life of brittanneyy

My computer was having deep issues so I enlisted the help of my dad to fix it. After a week of not truly believing me that I had problems, he sat down to use my computer and was absolutely shocked that it crashed! So, this is the course of action that he took:
FRIDAY: he promises to get me the software needed for ‘maximum virus protection’.
FRIDAY NIGHT: he comes home from work (a computer company) with a dramatic story about how he was driving along and a nail got stuck into one of the car’s tires. He would get it fixed on Saturday.
SATURDAY: he leaves at dusk to get the tire fixed and to get me my software (from his friend’s company I assume). He returns home with a great story about how he stopped at a gardening shop and decided that we should buy tonnes of like, sand and shit, and re-model. My mother called him crazy saying she’s not about to spend her time in the garden digging when she doesn’t really even want to.
SUNDAY: before I went to work I finally asked if he got the software and whether he would be fixing my computer whilst I was gone. He said tersly “Well, I didn’t go out yesterday did I?”
MONDAY NIGHT: at almost midnight, he sits down to fix the computer because he said that the program is actually downloadable online so there shouldn’t be an out of date issue (which was the problem to begin with). It was ever so frustrating that I just sat down and did it myself considering that the software was available all along!

Now, I’m not playing the blame game, but I feel that the tire of our car has a lot to answer for.

What’s the worst birthday present you’ve ever gotten?

Went to see the glasshouse the other night and Dave was coming around to do his questionaire to the audience thing. So the question was: What was the worst birthday gift you have ever received? I was really excited because I had a really good answer that I didn’t even have to lie about…
A scratchie.
And it wasn’t even a joke present.
But dave didn’t get to my end of the queue. This guy who made up a gift of a dead goldfish got on TV, but me with my real pain, did not.
So next time you think about getting me a scratchie for ANY occasion, just buy me a skim mocha with two (brown) sugars instead.

HOSTEL

another hostel horror story...
I was talking to my friend and she said that one time she was staying in a hostel room with her friend and two other girls. Then one night (when she had an early start the next morning) one of the other girls came into the room with a guy at 3am and started having sex.

I mean, how hot does this girl have to be for a guy to come back to a hostel room with her? Don't they have bunk beds?

Im not the crappest anymore!

Today I made a $500 sale! yay! actually it was $497 which meant that im only up for a bronze award but still. Here's what shits me though - after running everything through the register and totalling to $500 something, the lady says "Did you give the 20% discount off knits?"
Me: "F^&K, no...sorry." So, with the help of my lovely co-worker (whom i dedicate this award to) I refunded everything and gave her the 20% discount. But the discount only came to like $4.
So, it meant that we put 20 items through twice, gave the poor lady $4 off $500 and missed out on a silver award by $3....

um...so i guess im not crappy anymore...
