Mid-Range Halftones

Lots have been going on, but not really things I was planning on accomplishing.

I really need to get going on art stuff. Man, I feel so lame for starting so many paintings and not finishing them. Goddamnit.

There’s so many things I need to throw out. I have way too much stuff to move into a dorm. I think I need to put stuff into storage or something… I really don’t know what to do with all the things in this house. Most of it is sentimental stuff that my mom just won’t let go of. She should be responsible for storaging this crap because she’s the only one who won’t throw it out. Y got me this bath rug… It’s kinda embarrassing. *King of Shame*

God, I miss the Koreans. JinWon… I want to talk to you!! T^T I severely feel so out of whack because I haven’t seen him in almost a week. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. It really doesn’t feel right to me. And because Tiger… Well, he has new things going on in his life, JinWon is the only one I can really talk to and hang out with and not feel uncomfortable or weird. Yeah, it used to be the trio of me, Tiger, and JinWon. But now, it’s whittled down to just me and JinWon. Which is fine by me, I’m closer to JinWon than Tiger anyway, but it just feels a little sad that Tiger can no longer hang out with us as much as we used to… Ah well. C’est la vie. Rose Selavy. Ahahahaha… (Yeah, shut up. Art historians will get my joke.)

Oh man, it’s Christine’s wedding this Sunday!! How exciting. I hope I have everything that I need for the wedding… I need to print out a cool envelope… I need to do some kind of creatively cool design.

Ah, I’ll think about it later. I should go to bed.





So Daring

27 05 2008

Holy crap, I nearly had a heart attack. Just a few minutes ago, I was sleeping. Then I get a call from Toshiya. He seldom calls me, so I was kinda shocked. Regardless of me sleeping, I woke up and took the call. He was all cheery like usual and said that Fred something last night something something calculations something. I said, “What?” and he tried to say it again, but then it stopped and then Fred was on the phone.

Oh shit.

See, remember what I told you about last night? Yeah, well, again, to tell it in a nutshell, we were short from lunch as it was and then we were still short at dinner, even without lunch’s shortage. So it was a bitch to try and calculate, but I did do calculations and I can’t remember what I calculated, but it made logical sense to me at the time so I let it be. So I left a note saying we owe all the servers and myself money and the cash drawer is still short.

Back to Fred- So he said, “So, we owe all the servers money, correct?” And I told him yeah and he said that all of what we owe added together doesn’t add up. We’re off by 96 dollars. My heart really did skip a beat. I guess he noticed that I had just woke up and told me to call him back later when I’m awake. Shit…

So I immediately get up and go to the computer to look at the Wordsheet to get the numbers I need to backtrack what I did. I did memorize a lot of the generalized numbers, but to make sure, I wanted to look at it. If anything, I think I made a technical error. So I looked at it and I noticed I didn’t put down the Nori discounts which was roughly around 95 dollars. So I thought, “YES! It makes sense!” but I thought that if Fred is only going off on the server tips and cash drawer shortage, then I’m not sure if that’ll have anything to do with the sales overage. (Uh, this doesn’t make sense, I know. I’m talking to myself…) So I called back saying that I didn’t put the Nori discounts in. Fred said, “Well, that doesn’t have anything to do with the shortage.” In my mind, I knew that it does because it does change the over/short calculation at the end, but since I was just scared to death talking to him with this kind of issue I just said okay and asked for the servers’ tips amount and try to backtrack on my calculations from last night. He gave it to me and I told him I’ll call him later.

So I was calculating for a little bit and then I get a call back from Fred saying, “Oh, I did put in the Nori discounts and now, it makes sense.” I thought to myself, “YES! I was right!” but of course, Fred scares the living daylights out of me and so I said, “Oh okay. Sorry about all that.”

I’m sure he’s not all too happy with me. But he didn’t really like me in the first place anyway, so there’s nowhere to go, but down. XD A nervous and scared laugh, if anything, really…

I was thinking about going to Robata today for lunch because I need to eat a really big and nutritious breakfast before my apheresis donation appointment at 2. And now that things are okay with the calculations, I’m sure it’ll be alright. But I actually would rather not see Fred today…





Await

Alright man, it’s been long enough.

Finals are over and this semester is finished. Thank God. What an awful semester it has been.

I really miss my Korean friends. I’m so used to seeing them everyday and talking to them everyday. But since school’s over, we haven’t really talked at all. It feels weird. Especially with JinWon. I haven’t talked to him at all since Friday. The other guys, I don’t really call or chat with, but JinWon and I talk EVERYDAY, so it just didn’t feel right until today. I know he’s really busy since his family from Korea is over. So hopefully, things will simmer down and he’ll be available to chill with.

Work today sucked cuz the cash drawer was short to begin with due to lunch and then we ended up owing everyone money for tips. Goddamnit. And because of that, I couldn’t figure out how to calculate if things are on the right track or not because of all the shortages. Arrrrgh. I think it’s off by a couple bucks. Why is it that it’s off by a couple dollars on the days that everything’s all messed up? Damnit.

Oh well, it was Mike who was managing today so it was alright.

I want to go out and have some fun man… It’s been a boring summer so far, but it hasn’t even been a week. XD

I went shopping yesterday with Y and Melissa. I got a nice dress for Christine’s wedding and some awesome shoes to go with it. I also have a white purse, but I don’t know if that’s okay… I looked around on Yahoo answers and it seems like as long as you don’t have a white dress or something, it’s fine… I hope so.

I’ve been starting to pack things up to move for my dorm at SJSU. I haven’t even picked which dorms to go to… I want to go to the International Students dorm and meet some Japanese people or something and they can help me improve my Japanese and I can help them improve their English or something… But they have some weird requirements. And then there’s the art students dorms, but I don’t really get along well with other artists. And then there’s the transfer students dorms… Where the only requirement is that you’re a transfer student. I fulfill that. Easy…

Well, I have a busy day tomorrow. Laaater.





All Times

I thought I’d become re-addicted to the internet after getting this new laptop, but it’s not the case at all. In fact, I’m on the computer less than before and I don’t even like logging in much.

Today, I worked by myself as a cashier at work. Almost all of the prices on the menu has been raised today, but surprisingly, no one really complained about it. Even though I’m really supposed to have two person’s worth of tips, I only got an average weekday’s amount of tips. D: Damnit.

Otherwise, there’s been a lot going on, but I’m too tired and I’ve forgotten too much to actually mention.

I’ll try to update this more after finals are over.
