so the end of the interview goes like this:
- so what's ur availability after school starts?
- ummm.... i was hoping to only work until the end of September
- oh.........
- problem isn't it?
- *nods* a little... ok i'll hire you anyways
- WHAT?
- i'll still have to do a reference check on you, but i'll call you soon to tell you about training and work clothing
- ok, thanks

so i am semi-officially hired at Laura Petites. lolz.. funny thing is, when i went in to the interview, she totally forgot i would have an interview on that day and it wasn't until i said that I applied on Tuesday and she asked me a few questions about the Body Shop that she remembered that she made this interview with me lol.. in the end, i still got a second part time job. so yay! =) then, met up with Shannon and i went around to do my shopping... and then she dropped me off at Kennedy and Hwy 7 and i took bus to pmall to buy some stuff for my mom. haha i bought the wrong thing.... meh, it's all good. then... robin came to pick me up and we ate at a restaurant and then met up with Wayne, Stephen, and Duane to watch X3. hehe good movie. also saw some people from trudeau - for me, it was mainly Alvin and Alesha. haha HIIIIIIII! then i got driven home and i'm gonna go to sleep now.

it was an awesome day.

and Happy birthday Wayne!

=)

ok ok.. so... as some of u know, i finally got my laptop back yesterday. SWEET LAPTOP! haha it's soo much faster than my old, crappy computer, and it can do so much more and ahhhhh it's just awesome! lolz secondly...
-she knows, she knows!!!
-knows what?
-mom knows i'm going out with Robin

ahhhhhhh it's finally no longer a secret to my parents... my siblings still don't know yet haha but it feels so much better that i don't need to hide it from them... especially my mom. and the best thing is, i knew my parents (or i thought it was just my mom) already knew, but i just never admitted it. but mom said they knew, dad kinda knew and they never said anything cuz they know that robin's a great guy and that i'm a big girl now =D yeaaaaa i'm one happy little girl. lolz... but it did take me 22 months to admit it. haha oh wellz... they know they know! and i'm glad they're not mad at me.

so is anything gonna change? haha maybe not so soon. but one thing's for sure, i won't have to lie about who i'm going out with anymore =) *sigh of relief*

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

btw, happy 22 months robin!!!!!!!! me luvsssssss you! ^_^

congratulations robin =)

first of all, i found some of my final marks for first year.. um.. not half bad. secondly, i called the telephone agency place and they said that they couldn't get a hold of my manager but they would try again today. thirdly, robin got hired at wonderland (YAY congratulations!) and I was the first person to know about it lolz yay for me. haha i feel stupid. anyways... if all goes well, i will be leaving the house everyday at least once for the coming week. haha... not too sure my mom will be happy about it but meh. why is it that parents like to compare you to other people? and they tell you to try to be content with life because content makes happiness.. but when i am content, it turns out they're not because i'm not getting kickass A++++s like my cousins and because i don't help out if no one tells me to (unlike my perfect model cousins in the states). hmz.... isn't it normal that i feel like a lazybum around the house? and would you really remember which one of your siblings had a library book on hold a few days ago? haha i wouldn't. and I got introuble for it. oh, and is it really that bad to like sleeping late and waking up late? i don't find it such a shame. ahhhh, my dear parents, u'r not bad ones, it's just that.. sometimes, i feel like you want me to do well and to be the model kid just so u can compare me to more amazing/perfect children so u could glow and be happpy that you were able to raise such a stupendously remarkable child.

it's like mom's reading newspaper and it makes me think: yes, that kid in the newspaper really is amazing. that's why he/she is in it and has an article written about him/her. and what's that? why can't I be like that person? well.. maybe it's cuz i'm not and because not everyone is meant to be a super kickass genious that will one day change the world. =] the end.

I know that in the end, you just want what's best for me and i thank you for pushing me cuz i know i would probably slack off more than i do already, but still. well, that's my rant for today. sry if nothing makes sense. i'm gonna go to sleep soon =)

zzzZZZZZZZZ

ps congratulations robin. you're awesome!

so...

well, not anything interesting happening. hmz.. i am currently reading the Da Vinci Code. I must say, good book good book. it makes me feel smart when i know what htey're talking about .... especially if i've guesed parts of it before they have YAY! hehe ^_^ it's a good read. well.. anyways, that customer service agency hasn't called me yet. i'm planning to call them tomorrow to ask them about it cuz then it'll actually be a full week after my interview. and that's about it. see you all soon.

oh.. and the body shop got quiet again. after the whole mother's day craze, it went back to being quiet. haha, at least i'm still making my targets... just barely though. meh. BYE!

pmall

haha pmall sounds weird. oh wellz so yesterday, Robin came to find me at pmall cuz i felt scared and lonely there by myself. um.. some weird random guy waved at me so i waved back cuz i thought that maybe it was someone i used to know that still recognized me but that i didn't remember. turns out it wasn't and there were girls beside him going "omg.. she likes you she likes you" and i was like wtf? so i walk even faster (and i was on the phone with robin at that time) and yea... robin came to give me a hug! hehe. so anyways, went shopping for my bro's friend's bday present. and me and robin had bubble tea, fish balls, and mcflurry together. yum!

today, i went to visit grandma and then me, mom, dad, sister went to time square and we ended up having vietnamese food while my bro was at his friend's bday and then I drove home while my mom sat in the backseat panicking. lolz. my dad was like "relax, she's a big girl now and she's a pretty ok driver." and i was like YAY thanks dad! hehe and of course.. mom did not really feel any safer although i did get us all home in one piece, without a scratch on the van, AND without any close calls =) yay.

explanation

ok so... what does "chersomes" mean? it's not French, English, Cantonese, Hispanic, German, or any other language out there. It was simply devised during a grade 10 computer science project. I was making a website (assignment) for card captors. so, I wanted a name that reflected it more, but everything that i wanted was taken. so then, i thought of cherry blossoms, which are so pretty. so then, first 4 letters of cherry and last 4 letters of blossom. *gasp* lolz, but where does the "e" come from you ask? i thought chersoms looked weird and that adding an e to it would make it look cooler, so it got stuffed in between the m and the s. hence, we get the name chersomes. =] has your curiosity been satisfied?

anyways, so yesterday, i went for a job interview with telereliance for a possible position as a bilingual customer service representative. hehe if i get the job, it's $16/hour hehehehe *please give me the job!* lolz oh, so while I was taking the bus, i saw Jenny Chan and we talked a bit before we parted on our own ways. when i finally found the Telereliance agency, i did this French test with a person on a phone, and i thought I screwed up on it. oh wellz. then, i was told to go to a computer where they simulated me finding information to help a customer and I got to simulate entering data while a 'customer' told me their information. then... we went to the actual interview. the lady's name was Sarah and it turns out she went to U of Ottawa and she also worked at the Body Shop before. haha what a coincidence, so then we had something in commmon to talk about. =) Bonus points. haha so after i wowed her with my stories of amazing customer service, the interview was done and she said she would call me to tell me if I get a job by the end of the week. but of course, not before she gave me my stats back for the french and computer tests. haha I somehow got 85% on my french evaluation and i got 80% for my personality test. and i type twice as fast as Sarah. =) YAY! bonus points again! so then, I went home. and realized i was locked out cuz my mom was unexpectedly home and the one day that I forget my keys at home, I'm locked out. so... i went to visit who else, but Robin! =)

lolz.. he finished up editing my sister's performance for a multicultural talent night and transfered it to dvd. we played that parkinglot game with a red car that has to try to get out (still dont' know the name of that game) meh, then robin and i went to wait for my bus and we saw sam. haha then i got on my bus and i went home. and that was basically my day.

hehe, i hope you all had a fun-filled day too! BYE!

First post ever =]

so, let me start with i'm gonna be sending my laptop off to be repaired tomorrow so don't count on me updating too often. I just really wanted a place to hold my thoughts since i have no privacy in my own home. haha. let's just say i had 2 awesome days and don't wanna forget anymore interesting/special things in life that have passed me by.... so here we go:

day before yesterday was the most perfect and wonderful day i've spent with Robin. he came to pick me up around 1:40pm and he drove me to Vaughan Mills cuz i wanted a red jacket thingy that i never bought (but i wanted it) when i was with Shannon 2 days before that. hehe so we went there, found it (YAY!) and then we went to look around. I also bought the first tanktop ever......... lolz. and i lost a nice bottle of water and ate japanese and greek food all in the same day. =) i also got the Da Vinci Code because it is impossible to borrow it from the library. lol... i put a hold on it and i'm the 60 somethingth person on the waiting list. good book, on page 160 now. hehe then i got driven home and we looked at some stars and it was a magnificent night. =D

today, i went to robin's house for a while, then shannon came to get me (she's soooooo awesome) and we went to her house to play. haha we ended up playing 4 games of Life and we ate wild rice with chicken for dinner at her place. haha tasted pretty good =P then... before shannon was gonna drive me home, her mom actually gave me persmission to drive shannon's car out of the parking lot while she backed out her dad's car (which was blocking the exit of the driveway) so yes... I drove illegally (again) for about 10 seconds. haha... oh.. i forgot that the drive/park/neutral/reverse thingy was beside the seat so i ended up pulling the windshield wiper stick and turned the wipers on. lolz.. but i got her car out all in one piece =D YAY as soon as i got home, i took my bro and sis to the park and we rode our bikes and then stopped at the park for a little while hehe. then we went home and we watched Mean girls (haha i borrowed that from shannon along with like 10 other dvds) lol. i thought it was pretty good. and now, i'm just waiting for a reply from my grade 12 french teacher and hope that she remembers me and that she wants to be my reference for a job interview. haha... i don't know about this job anymore.... so people actually call in in French and ask you things? but we live in Markham... how many French speaking people can there be? haha oh wellz.

tmr. i have work from 10-3pm. come visit me at the body shop =) see you all soon. bye!
