34.2

It feels really weird to get 0 comments on a blog. Like yesterday's. But I know you're all busy, helping with secret projects, and studying/taking exams so I'm letting it slide. Speaking of secret projects, it's going so well. I sent it to Ashley and she is pretty into it as well. But I kind of feel like it's my baby, so I have to like it more, no matter how many times I watch it to make sure I got the right spot for editing and making sure all the audio is level even though some people are too quiet and some are way too loud. But I'm kidding. iMovie is way easier to use than I first thought and I'm really enjoying the fact that my computer doesn't freeze mid-edit.

So it's really hot here in Kelowna. Like, ridiculously. I rode to the library, then to the mall in shorts and a t-shirt. And I was still sweating. But the reason for my trip to the mall was to go job hunting. I applied at Smart Set and some other place I can't even remember and then I found Randy River and saw they had a Now Hiring sign. So I was ECSTATIC. I used to work at International Clothiers, which is like, the same company.

So I went in and gave the woman a resume and we talked for a bit and she was all "do you have any experience" and I was like "Yeah, I worked at International, so I already know the ins and outs of the company" and she's all "It's funny you say that, because this store is going to be turned into an International soon" and then she's all "My DM is coming down next week so it'll take us a while to get back to you, so don't think we've thrown your resume away or anything, we'll definitely get back to you and the DM will like that you've already worked here. Would you be okay with taking keyholder position?" So I'm all: OF COURSE. Because keyholders have something in between full and part time. So it'd be perfect. So she says she'll get back to me in 1-2 weeks, and I'm excited. I also told Mitchell I applied and he said she called for a reference which is awesome! Really hoping to get a job there. Anyways. This spiel is over.

I'm pretty stoked as well because I'm pretty close to figuring out everything on my Mac. I've got Transmission (which is like uTorrent, but better) and a Youtube converting program, and I have all my normal programs. Also, apparently if you get an e-mail on a Mac with an MS-DOS attached, you can't open it. But I e-mailed myself my OpenOffice documents and they opened. So take that, Microsoft. I wasn't going to pay 150 dollars for iLife or whatever it is. I can just as easily get the same programs, if not better ones, by downloading them online.

Right. Okay. So the BEDA theme is Dreams. And I have pretty messed up dreams all the time. Unless it's meant as.. like, dreams for my life. In which case, I have no freaking idea what I want to do with my life. But I'm going to move on to the song, because I still have to catch up on all YOUR blogs. I'm asking Ashley for the song because she happens to be speaking with me on Skype. Where Did You Go by Valencia



Love you all

  1. I like that Asian drummer. He's not joking around there.

    Well I really hope that you get that job there! That sounds like it would be perfect for you, eh?

    This comment is hitting you from the Calgary airport. Thought you should know.
