Oh yes, I'm listenin to the "Lights and Sounds" CD right now :D I'm really likin it but I guess it's one of those albums that you need to listen to over and over to get used to then love it. Talk about excited. I think it's cuz there hasn't been any good new albums comin out recently. My favourite artists/bands are takin forever to release new CDs. So let me just have this! Haha

Yesterday was pretty sweet. I got up a bit early (for me, of course) to trek downtown and hit the flagship HMV. I got there around noon and hopin I'd score a showcase ticket cuz it said the first 100 ppl who bought the CD at that location would get one. Didn't know if they were all gone yet but I wasn't exactly gonna be there at 8 am linin up outside the door or anythin. Not only was the CD $9.99 (even cheaper than I'd ever get at work with my discount) but I got a ticket too! Wicked. Except that no one else I know is as into Yellowcard as I am therefore haven't bought a CD at that HMV and therefore do not have a ticket to their show...ergo, me goin by myself :P

Anyway, after I got that business done, I went shoppin since I was downtown and I didn't have work til 6. I hit the Eaton Centre and this time actually came out with purchases! I got 2 tank tops, an AE polo and long tee, and that frickin black V-neck shirt that I've been lookin around for like a month! I don't know why it's so hard to find a simple long-sleeved black V-neck. But not like a nice designer sweater cuz I can't wear that to a bar ('spilly talkers' and whatnot), just to wear under my uniform shirt for work cuz it gets kinda chilly sometimes. Thank you, H&M...I finally found one there! I was lookin at maybe gettin Nike Shox or whatever else caught my eye but didn't find somethin I liked. They've got a hype new store called Hollister's which I almost bought stuff at but I kept somewhat of a budget. I capitalized on my gift cards tho...paid only the $1.49 tax for the CD and about 20 bucks for my AE gear.

I was very satisfied with how productive my day was. Then I had my yummy chicken quesadilla that I always get from Taco Villa with a Pepsi (you know how I love my Pepsi) and that made me a happier girl. Yeah, it doesn't take much to please me, haha. I was sittin in the food court at one of those 'made for 4' tables and a couple asked if they could sit there and tho it was kind of weird, I said sure. So they're right beside me eatin and havin a conversation that I can obviously hear every word of but I guess they didn't care cuz I pretended I was intrigued by my surroundings cuz I don't wanna seem like I was listenin in...and I wasn't, it couldn't be helped just cuz of how close they were to me. The girl was an artist and the man was a doctor apparently and talkin about paintings or somethin. I dunno if they were bf/gf or whatever cuz he was older and one of those international men cuz I could hear some kind of accent. So the girl was sayin, "So you're a doctor, the one of the anatomy must've been beautiful." I just thought that was cool. I took a couple of art classes in school and was around artsies and I love that about ppl who find appreciation in things we don't normally.

So I went back on the subway to get home, with my shoppin bags and listenin to Yellowcard. I had to use this old, big CD player that P had left in my car like a yr ago cuz L had mine, and then my batteries died. Poops. Got back and wanted to re-try all my clothes on, haha.

Then I did my pointless 3 hr shift at work. It was just bad. Not only was it pretty much just employees in the store, I basically sold nothing. ONE pre-paid cell phone...and even that was drama cuz there were old price tags still up and it was actually more expensive than the customer thought, and there was supposed to be a free accessory pack that comes with it but it wasn't ringin up automatically so that was a pain. And on top of all that, another pricey camcorder got returned under my name so I was about a thousand dollars under. FUCK! That's it, I'm not sellin them anymore cuz they always end up comin back and sendin me negative anyway. Then Vicky came in and entertained me for a bit and bought a Norton Anti-Virus or somethin and helped my pathetic budget goal :P That's the thing about bein commission - it's really good some days when you're makin $100+ and horrible when you've got no customers and not sellin anythin with all the pressure to make sales goals and include attachments and sell PSP and Clearance and Open Box items. Ah well, at least I had Godwin and Evan to keep me company.

Day off today. I actually have nothing to catch up on. Don't really have anythin to buy now, went to the bank and desposited my cheque after work last night, I think I've got all my boring chores taken care of. Nice.

I'm gonna put together all the Christmas party pix Godwin sent me. Bye bye.
