today was my formal day off as you say. i didnt babysit and i didnt have work. it was nice. i get to stay at home and do things on my own time. i didnt do much today but walk with yolis. it is fun. i like walking him in the early afternoon. its quiet and not too many cars on the street. its nice. i guess tomorrow ill go out on the long route b/c my mom will be in the grocery store. whats important to note is that its her thanksgiving shopping and thats going to take a while. what that has to do with going on the long route i dont know. anyways i realize i fall in love like 563458345 times a day. i was walking and i see this guy in a vw old van thingy i love him. and i love the cool plants outside the firehouse and i love the firemen that are in the firehouse i love trucks and cool skater guys in flannel shirts. and i love cheap twenty five cent sodas and the new guitarist named chris in the foo fighters and guitar picks. i love gilligans island and mike vallely and pocket lint. i love too many things. drummers yeah i guess thats the picture. i got financial aid and im happy. i have enough money to make it when i go to school. my mom is stoked that im not going to get into graphic design and my sister is pissed that i dint have to get a loan.
ja rule and stephen segal are in a movie that has got to be some kind of sign its got to.

i took a mid afternnon walk with my dog today. it was really nice b/c on normal days i go out in the late afternoon and its getting dark. i like the early afternoon. i get the rest of the day to do...well...nothing. anyways i babysat today. the beginning of the night was chaos but soon enough there was peace. it was nice i got to wacht giligans island. i was hoping it was the russian ghost one but it wasnt. the herold heccuba one was not too bad. i like that one. i grew up with giligans island. its my favorite show of all time. ive seen everyone and almost all the movies. i really do love that show. i also saw my favorite episode of hey arnold, the pigeonman episode. the first time i saw that episode i almost cried. really it was that good. i ate lots of bread today. the frech roll kind. for some reason i have gas. hmm...

i remember on sunday my dad actually sat down and watched an entire episode of jackass. i thought that was weird. my dad was laughing really hard. i thought parents usually condone shows like that but my dad hinks its the funiest thing on tv. strange but i love how weird my family is. like today my mom gets a letter from my aunt in the motherland (the philippines). my mom was thinging about calling my dad so she is right by the phone ready to call him and just then the phone calls. she picks it up and guesss who is on the other line. my dad. its a weird thing my mom and my dad have. they can sense when eachother is going to call. its not just a funny considence. its happend on three other occasions. so my mom and dad have this magic thing where they can read each others mind. its weird but really cool. oh yeah on sunday i didnt get to see charisse. jesse bailed on us and i couldnt drive b/c my mom didnt let me so i didnt get to go out and i just sat at home.
today was the second day of work. today went very smoothly than yesterday. i know how to do everything and and marlene helped me and i had an overall good night. i also found out why the other babysitter was fired.i thought i was a bad person for keeping the kids up late. it was a good night and i know i get money in some form some time so im good. tomorrow i babaysit.

it was the first day of actual work for me today. hoping they dont ask me for more work days. first let me ddiscribe what i do. first i enter some dadt in the computer. they try to help me as much as they can but the way they explian it to me is so vague. there are lots of loopholes. i do that from 4-5. then from 5-8 i call old people to remind them that a bus is going to pick you up from this time to this time. the thing is that some people dont understand english, they have a hearing aid and i have to scream at them, or they have ans answering machine and it throws me off guard that i dont know what to say and i end up sounding stupid on the machine. so i feel like im not doing a good job. the place is so boring. there is no music playing so at times its quiet. there is nothing on the walls and i work with a computer and inside a cubical. its bland and i know thats a place where i would not want to end up working. the people there are nice. they have lots of personality and they almost all smoke. its kinda funny hearing them clear their throats and breathing hard but then its kinda sad. i guess the funnisest thing i heard was some guy trying to seel his brothers pentium 2 computer for $600. yeah right. and then they got into this conversation about buying computers from walmart. not a smart place to buy a computer. i was going to say something but i decided to keep quiet and laugh inside. so yeah overall work is blah but im getting paid $8.00 an hour and for a person who had never had a job before thats good. the plus side is that i get to talk to old people. some one today gave me a life story. i talked to her for about six minutes. it was great and she totally understood me. some people were like ok and confused. but i guess looking back it was ok but i would not want to spend my whle life there. i guess thats why everyone makes jokes and picks on each other. its keeps them sane.
i have a really bad head cold. i just want to fall asleep. thats all i wanted to do all day. i going to go to sleep early today. maybe i can go out for a little while and walk with yolis. i have a bad sinus and im developing a cough. it sucks. blah. this morning i didnt want to wake up. oh yeah my pee smells like cold medcine and ocra seeds do not digest.
