fuchsia fragments

we were kicking customers out of the store at 5 and amanda and i were directing these ladies out. and she goes 'excuse me, we're closed now you're going to have to go to the front' and raises her arm to point to the registers and promptly whacks me on the face. it wasn't hard but i was so not expectin it. and she was like 'oh!!' and im like 'wat the fuck?'. HAHAHAHA and we both cracked up. and she was like 'omg omg im so sorry. are u alright?' and im like yeah yeah im okay.. hahaa highlight of my day -_-
im hoping that PB season 3 will pick up the pace a little. its beginning to get interstesting. =D
and there IS a difference between cornflour and cornstarch. yanks and poms be damned

get a call this morning when i'm like barely awake and my boss was like.. take a day off. our computers are down. =D
so i went to the gym, washed the cars, took scout for a walk, mopped the floor again and sunbaked =)
went to roselands with mum this evening.. it was kind of boring.. there aren't any shops there.. i hate to say it but i think its worse than westfield. im in need of a bigger shopping centre in my vicinity without having to go south! miranda is just too skippish and eastgardens is sort of far.. oh wells.
i added another cake tin to my collection. im currently thinking about upgrading my baking tray collection.

went for a walk around the city today with donna. didnt really buy much.. a top, pair of black flats.. oh and the lindt cafe in darling harbour =) so to make up for it i went back to hurstville and bought 8 fish. hahaha no, i just wanted to. chu ma ma's is actually pretty crap now. the little steamed buns had a really thick flour/dumpling layer.
went from market city to pitt st.. felt really good to walk around cause of all da exercise.. we even used stairs!! haha and victorias basement was pretty cool. they didnt really have what i wanted but still.. love kitchenware and homeware =) donna bought herself a bowl
and i do not want to see another moon cake for the rest of the year.

there were these two other chicks at the office today.. so it was like.. uh.. kind of crowded?? felt like i had no personal space. and didn't feel as special cause i wasn't da only girl =( hahahaha
and why did joyce get the front seat? =(
did a bit of creative accounting today =P
oh and we had dinner at neutral bay cause it was carl's 21st. (as a sidenote) HAHAHA.
anyone up for paintball on the 13th of october?

to sum it up: it was very loud. jk
pretty nice night. some classic and fluke photo moments that some ppl will find hard to live down. =D haha um.. food was okay. drinks were good eventho i had ZERO alcohol. i love grapefruit juice and lemon lime bitters =D
haha the cake was great =P
we'll sum it up in pictures.

i haven't done a 4 hour shift on a weekday afternoon for so long that i've almost forgotten how it feels like. it's really BORING!! closing and pick up takes an hour at absolute maximum so for the rest of the three hours i was walking around and made my heel bleed cause of my new flats. im SO smart eh.
anyhow, there were all these new faces and it made me feel kind of out of place cause i didn't know them. and it just goes to show how close knit the weekend staff are. cause we're all like the same age and stuff =) its like a completely different place on the weekend.
anyway, im sure joyce would love to know that i've finished making her cake and that i really want to post a pic of it up but i'll refrain until tomorrow cause i dont want her to see it yet =). thanks for giving me the opportunity to make it and i hope you like it. btw am i supposed to bring the candles? =S cause i dunno if i have any.

dad picked my up from uni and we travelled around the eastern suburbs today. hahaha. actually, i had to pick up my bargain cake boards from potts point (man, that place was HOT!) and the guy was soooo nice. =) and then we went to bondi to buy alcohol. lots and lots of alcohol.. like uh.. 48 bottles worth? =D its good stuff. hahahhaa
then tonight i went lonely coles shopping for joyces ingredients.
its the mid sem break!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my accting tutor was a total out of control bitch today. more so than usual. she was like after writing an entry on the board
do you understand this? (nobody answers)
so she repeats:
do you understand this? with more force and emphasis (people have their heads down)
so she yells
DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS OR NOT? ITS A SIMPLE Q. (and like 1 person nods)
its like.. if we dont say anything, then obviously we're processing it and we don't have any questions. its so freakin degrading. like it doesnt take a genius to work out why the class is generally so quiet.
and she gave me a fucking 2.5 out of 5 for my homework when i did all but one of the questions. that was SOOOOOOO slack. far out so pissed off.

i have literally been sitting here since 8:30 this morning doing the same thing for more than 12 hours straight. as much as it can be fun, running regression models gets frustrating and confusing not to mention that my back is killing and my bum feels flat. i've had about 3 litres of tea today which is why im kind of perky now. but i think i did okay (in between the time i wasted staring out the window listneing to savage garden and browsing ebay).
ive got an executive summary, conclusion and an appendix to fix up. and some editing of course. page limits are better than word limits anyday!! =D
ive neglected to do my acct homework. theres always tomorrow morning but i really doubt theyre going to check AGAIN to make it three weeks in a row. thats just stupid right?

weekends make me so lazy. at work we were saying how we had a total of 8 shifts on the weekend and thurs nights and 5 people. which is why basically all of us were getting absolutely crap shifts. ie, a maximum of two shifts a week. as if we needed all those new ppl. not happy.
we relayed the back wall of girls 7-16 (perhaps against our better judgement. wasn't really in the right mind at the time). anyhow, we managed to get the stuff done. i mean, it was a pretty quiet day.
im so glad i have a day off tomorrow cause metrics assignment is gonna be the death of me. its not that i dont want to do it, its more like i dont know where to start cause theres a lot of bs that goes along with it. and i want to write good bs and not bad bs?? plus running models gets really frustrating. especially when shazam doesnt know what ur trying to tell it to do. hahahha or maybe cause i suck.

you might all remember a certain ancient history teacher who was a total bitch back in our high school years. well, she came to shop at my store today and in my department. and she was a very very bitchy customer (thank goodness she never had me and didn't recognise me). anyway, she was asking for the girls PJs section, so i pointed and told her that all our pjs were just opposite where she was standing. and she goes 'where? is that all you've got? there weren't any size 14 or 16s that i could see.' so i took her there and slowly showed her all the stuff we had. (there was heaps). and shes like pulling stuff out from everywhere and making a fine mess of things and not caring that I, ME, would have to clean up after her. couldn't really believe it... like she didnt even hang it back!! she let it fall on the ground!!
oh yeah and thanks to the people who opened all the stuff in nursery and tried to assemble it. asses.. we couldnt fold it back up and now theres freakin too many displays. why?

oh wait, i forgot about the 2 minute storm. it was hailing at our place.
ive done absolutely nothing today and eventhough i should be feeling really guilty (major assignment due), it felt really good to bludge =D
hm.. castle hill myer is as crap as hurstville myer.

i don't know if im overreacting but i feel like i've had a really bad day with bits of good stuff in between. before we went to work, my boss had to drop by the airport and shit happened there.. and it was like a really bad start to the day. then took us ages to get to the office cause of the traffic.
but i got to run errands today =D went to asic and stuff and that was really fun (yeah, catching a bus up george street and waiting in line for 40 minutes is fun). and so's binding a bunch of paper. HAHAHA. on and typing up minutes.
um.. we left early cause we had a meeting in lidcombe and parramatta road was so highly congested it took ages and ages to get there.
and haha this takes the cake - the whole cake.. except maybe the icing's missing.
so i decide to go out to westfield to say hi to ppl and you know, thursday night shop. (not that i did much shopping) and i didnt bump into them not once but twice. i walk into myer and theres elisa and jenny shopping together like two happy little bumchums. yeah okay, i can handle that. we even made mostly unforced conversation for a little while before we said bye. (incidentlly, they were shopping for michelle and annies presents.. doesnt that make me feel so much better). so then i go into target and say hi to ppl.. and cause i was supposed to work tonight hahaha oops, and laura was tehre for once. and that was all good.. and i got out of target and there they are again, only this time julia's with them too. up until today, i have only seen her from afar.. no contact, and i couldve pretended that i didnt see her. but no. i had to look at her today and well, it was her that refused to acknowledged me.. cause i kind of waved at her.. them in general. and she was looking everywhere but me. good on her.
the bright side, im gonna make the cutest cupcakes cause i learnt how to today.. when i get the chance. =D

we went to dinner tonight at campsie for my parent's anniversary. it was okay.. half bbq and half food. they didnt have dubooki though =( we got back just in time to watch the chasers and lmao. they were so good.
and it must be wednesday night live chat cause everyones talking to me all of a sudden. haha i feel so important.
and i went to buy those cookie cutters i was yearning for and my gingerbread house kit. and i went and showed mum the cupcake tree and cake stand i wanted. and yeah. =)
theres a new one dollar coin for apec. how retarded.

there was a jin homework check yesterday for accounting.
anyway im not paying attention in my lab as per usual.
happy 20th anniversary mommy and daddy! =)

its so warm outside and its so stuffy in here...
add on top of that mondayitis and hahaha i sort of want to be anywhere but at work.

i launched Wynwyn's Place a few days ago. it was initally for my own benefit but if anyone's ever up for a challenge, i hope there's something there that will interest you =)

apparently they didn't get holiday rates yesterday which really really sucks for them. and they were absolutely, totally freakin smashed. the place today was still on the ground. me however, well i had a bomb =) played mahjong with da girls.
im so lazy i can't even b bothered to do my tutorial homework at the moment. i actually want to play computer games. hahaha

so i spend my lunch break going to marketcity to shop. hahahaha isnt that just SO typical of me. anyway general pants were having this massive sale so i managed to grab a coat and a pair of jeans for a $60 in total. =D
the city seems to be generally more quiet be theres still heaps of hustle and bustle.. it was just the clearways that were well, clearways this morning. traffic was still pretty heavy along the princes highway. which could also be because all other cars are forced to use the highway. hmm

econometrics has taken me until now and although there is a sense of satisfaction that i've finished it, i am so so so tired.
now i can revamp all i wannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnt =D
and play mahjong
and sleep
and sleep
and sleep

for those of you who know where i live, in particular the kind of street i live on, you'd know that there is literally no traffic. ever. except for residential cars. thats because we're sandwiched between two pretty busy streets that connect through to kingsgrove and beverly hills.
currently, there is a constant flow of cars, trucks and buses through my street. and i dont know why. its making it so noisy and its really quite fascinating cause who would've thought.

so ive stuffed up the images but i dont have time to fix.. bah.
i dont want to discuss accounting.
im talking to joyce who doesnt seem to understand waht i'm trying to say..
i can't wait till the long weekend.
im still stressed.
my head hurts.
i want to sleep

1. i am a master at procrastination.
2. always cooped up inside or at work on beautiful sunny days (i want to sunbake!)
3. why is it so hard to say 'no'?
4. wants to take on mega projects at the most inappropriate times (i came up with this great idea of another revamp X_X)
5. too gutless to call in sick at work (okay, i also need the money)
6. wants to paint nails
7. wants to wash car/s
8. want to take scout on a walk

Happy Father's Day daddy!
