fun with you tube

So last night we played an awesome game where everyone takes turns playing songs on youtube. Everyone else has the ability to veto if they want to. I guess its not much of a game but it was really fun to see what people were choosing to play.

Bday fun!

So it was a gal from works bday last night (but her party isnt until next week) so we decided to drink at my place and hit up the toad (surprise surprise). Well I kept pulling the "its her birthday" line out and we got tons of free drinks. Ran into a bunch of people I havent seen in ages and had a pretty darn good time.

I think the plan for tonight may be to go to the pal but who knows, we'll probably end up at the toad again. ha ha ha!

wednesday night fun!

So one of my favorite things to do now is to go to the Cavern on Wednesdays for Karaoke. For those of you that have been unfortunate enough to hear me sing in public, you know what kind of torture I can inflict on peoples eardrums. Well this past wednesday a few of us pre drank at my place, hit up the toad patio (where a very awkward guy professed his love to me and i pretty much broke his heart by leaving) then hit up the cavern for some good old fashion karaoke. It wasnt very busy but that didnt stop us from dancing around, laughing our heads off and singing a ton to other people's songs. We did sing "You shook me all night long" and I think it went well. I gave'er until I pretty much lost my voice. So much fun!

weekend update

So this weekend was a pretty good time. I spent 3hrs in Portage Place Mall while being stood up by Ryan. When he finally came to meet me, we decided to empty the leftover booze content of my fridge and head over to Mike and Nikitas place. Well they added their leftover booze to the bag and voila! the mystery bag was created. We ended up getting decently drunk and heading to the toad (of course). Well I completely forgot that the Rancid tribute was going on downstairs at the Cavern so I ditched out and ended up in the mosh pit for a while.

Had to work at the Happy Cooker the next day and it was a little rough. After work I took a nap and then bussed down pembina to meet some of my rez gals that I havent seen in a while. We drank and played cards and then ended up at Vivid (the old Coyotes). It was not a good bar and it was quite empty. I managed to split a cab with another gal that lived in the village and we got dropped off in front of the Toad. I met up with some people that I know and ended up partying at their place. I stumbled home around 5am. Had to work at the Happy Cooker the next day and it was a little rough, again.

After work headed to safeway to get some groceries and then just chilled for the rest of the day.

fun stuff!

not too happy with Rogers right now

So I got my mind set on getting an iphone. So by the time I did all the research I decided that I really, really want one. So I decide to go and talk to a kiosk to see what the deal was. Well they checked and I was eligible for an upgrade but that they were out of stock. Well I've been harassing all three rogers locations in st vital mall for at least 3 weeks. Well after dealing with some very unpleasant sales people, I finally got my hands on one. Well I had my hands on one for about 30 seconds until they told me that Rogers changed their upgrade policy one week prior and that meant that I was no longer eligible for an upgrade. Yup so instead of buying a $200 phone, I would have to pay $800 instead or wait until Feb. NOT HAPPY! So then I called Rogers to complain and they said the best they could do was charge me full price and then give me a credit on my phone bill. I'm sorry but I'd rather not have a $600 credit on my phone bill, I would rather pay a smaller portion monthly and just pay the reg price for the phone I want. Nor do I have that kind of space on my modest $1000 limit credit card.

I am actually really upset about this!!

Hoping for some good news

So one of the really good things about my job is that they offer mini internships for the head office in Montreal. So I have been recently applying for the buyers internship. This included an application about myself, a mini portfolio project and a weekly survey (that I've been filling out for at least 10 weeks now). This internship can be applied for by anyone in the company so I wasn't really expecting much.

Well I got a call on Wednesday from a lady in HR who was going to be interviewing me on Thursday morning if I was still interested. Well obviously I was and I think my interview went well. It consisted of 18 questions, some personal, some fashion related. I think it went well even though I was nervous, but the fact that I have a good phone voice probably helped a bit. The lady that is making the decisions will be back from holidays next week so they will either call me next week or the week after to let me know.

This internship would be perfect because its 3 months in Montreal with paid accommodations and a paid wage. Plus if I do a good job, there is a possibility of a permanent position. This would be so amazing because it's the perfect time in my life to be doing this cause I'm single, I dont own anything and I'm totally willing to move away from Winnipeg. So fingers crossed and I'll keep you posted!
