Thoughts of a Growing Christian | |||
Thursday, April 10, 2003 What an awesome bum day. After lunch I caught myself up with EVERYONE'S blogs/xanga/livejournals...that's time consuming dude but entertaining none the less. Then went to my class and after I came back Denise, myself, TJ and my roommate went to pick up my car. We went to 1.) meijer, 2.) galyan's 3.) oriental mart and 4.) this korean store called "dong yang sig poom" And let me tell you...I had one of my most embarassing moments in my life today. As we were pulling into the parking lot to go to galyans at the mall, I had to look for a parking spot. And when I'm looking for a spot I usually drive really slow. So as I go into this one aisle, my eyes were suddenly drawn to this guy...not the guy himself ( I was NOT checking him out ). He was wearing this NASTY ensemble that was so strange that it like seriously screamed look at me and would not let your gaze go anywhere else. It had big HUGE gray and baby blue patches everywhere and he looked like a walking eye exam. So Denise, TJ and myself were staring at him but me being the driver I look like I'm the ONLY ONE STARING cause they can't see anyone else in the car. But I was so caught up in the pattern, I was driving even slower and they were walking towards the mall so we were approaching each other. TJ then says what is the guy next to him doing???!!! I didn't even notice the other guy...that is how bad the pattern was. I look over and he was like pulling up his pants, zipping his fly, and buckling his belt. WHAT THE HECK???? I start saying to Denise and TJ...oh my what is he doing I didn't even notice cause I was so mesmerized by the pattern. My window was opened slightly, just a crack and supposedly the not decent guy had said "Oh you like that huh?" WAHHH!!!! Denise and TJ start CRACKING UP and falling all over laughing at me and here I am just continuing to talk not even realizing what he just said and saying to them that I was still staring at the patterns. And then it hit me...."did they just say something to me?" *more hysterical laughter from the back of my car* Then they told me what he said and I nearly fell over. I would have if I wasn't driving. I was so mortified. I was SO NOT checking them out. Wahh....I didn't even want to get out of the car. But anyways, I was good and didn't buy anything and denise and I played checkers while at galyans and we realized that we forgot how to play. You're saying how can you forget right? Well yeah we did...we weren't sure of the following so if you could offer some clarity it'd be much appreciated...1.Do you play on one color only? 2.Do you move diagonally only or can you move forward too? 3.)Can an unkinged piece jump a kinged piece? Oh and most of our shopping was all about food...asian food is the best man...yummy. We bought these awesome dumplings and ramen and all these other yummy snacks and cooked back in the room. This is what is going to make me miss the dorms. Granted the cooking facilities will be much more grand next year but it's always fun to see what you can do at the dorms. Those dumplings were sooo yummy! And TJ learned how to fold a plastic bag. (I'll explain sometime about my thing with plastic bags) Yay go TJ! It's so crazy that there's only 22 days left of school and dorm life will come to an end for me. But paradise here we come! And afterwards Cassie came up for a little to take a study break and Jae came over to chill for a little too. After Cassie left it was just Jae, myself and Denise and since the night was young we decided we should do something. We went to pick up soohak and we were gonna go watch the boys get their haircut by Carmike but ended up going to Udon Sushi instead and then it was off to Pinball Pete's. Wahoo! So the the four of us get there and we wanted to watch Soohak play DDR. He's got mad skillz for picking up choreographed dancing already. So I was blown out of the water when this boy was in SANDALS playing both dance pads at the same time. Man do I suck compared to some people...what happened to the days when I was good? Wah. Skillz I tell ya skillz! So that concluded the night...yay what a stress free evening...time well spent again before mad finals days...I'm getting ready so bring it baby! *roar* posted by Sewa at 3:25:00 AM # Wednesday, April 09, 2003 Wow what a two weeks it's been. I don't even know where to begin...these past two weeks seem to all blur together now. But since the last time I've blogged my highs and lows have reached those numbers of the stars....well not really but it's just been another roller coaster ride. First off CCF went to do habitat 4 humanity...if you've never done it before...try it! It's a blast! It's the second time I've done it and you just get so pumped and so smiley. It was snowing when we were doing it but that didn't stop us from making it fun...from tarzan to hacking tree stumps to dancing on clay to make it smooth the laughs never stopped. I'm proud of all those who came. Your servitude and your warm hearts just made the moment most memorable. And we got to go eat at Korean house afterwards! Yummy ^_^ Then those who came to dinner last sunday it was a blast...shinhwa can just pull us all together can't it? Yay for shinhwa! Jae, Denise, Soohak, Cassie, and Jason you guys are a trip. Dance Dance! But then lows are always looming in your future right? I HATE SPRINT. So this STUPID company that offers rebates and free phones and what not are freakin' punks! They ripped my mom off 200 bucks. My family went cellular last year and they offered this and that blah blah. Right nearly half a year later they never gave my mom her rebate and said she wasn't eligible. I HATE SPRINT. She's not APPLYING for anything you idiots owe her money! I had trouble with them with my rebate too! They always gave me the "oh I'm sorry I don't know what happened to it let me check on the status of that for you..." I had to chase them down for 8 months before I got my full 140 dollars. Then with my mom they said they sent her a denial letter. I HATE SPRINT. WHAT??? We never got one of those...and the sales person said with the stuff he sold her she would get that rebate. SO I constantly check the rebate status webpage. Now mind you we all have separate accounts but those IDIOTS had the guts to put the rebates checks that I cashed...same check # with the same processing date on my mothers account? WHAT?!?!? So you give me back 140 and pretend that she got 140 too? And why is it on her account??? I called them and asked them why all the accounts were messed up and said that that could be dangerous but they're lucky that it was mixed up within my family what if it is between complete strangers?!?! The guy then said to me "I'm actually not sure ... I can check that for you would you hold?" Half a year later he still tells me I'm not sure why that is and I can't seem to find this other account either. I HATE SPRINT @#$%^&*(!!! So at that point I was trying to remain calm and be like I have it pulled up on a webpage right now would you like me to read the account to YOU?!?!? THe boy had the nerve to give me lip! #$%^& I HATE SPRINT. So I said to him that this was false advertising and it could get them in a heck of alot of trouble AND MIXING UP ACCOUNTS? I also said you guys seem to be REALLY PROMPT with the bills saying we owe you money how come you're not so prompt with sending back money! So he gave me this half @$$ed sorry I can check on that for you... OH HECK NAW! I finally yelled at him and he was like oh wait I'm sorry I'm not sure why they sent the denial letter...your mother is eligible for the 200 dollars...we'll have that in the mail within 15 days. GARGH!!!! After half a freakin' year and all this calling and checking they BETTER send that check! I HATE SPRINT. So I call home cause I wanted to tell my mom I got her 200 back for her since she's been trying to get me to do that for awhile and she knows I don't tolerate crap from those stupid companies. But then when I called I found out that she was in the hospital. WHAT THE &$*# ? I get all this crap from STUPID SPRINT and now I have some good news to tell my mom and she's in the hospital. I nearly lost it. I was sent into panic mode. What was wrong why is she in the hospital is she ok? I find out that my mom has been trying to call me but never could get through. STUPID SPRINT SUCKS! Just last night I tried to call home...and it took me...get this....16 attempts before I could actually talk to my mom....signal faded...call cannot be completed yadda yadda. FORTY FIVE BUCKS A MONTH and I can't make a STUPID phone call?!?!?!? So after I felt like poop cause I couldn't be with my mom and I wanted to cry. But she had an emergency operation cause she had diverticulitis and now she's ok. Thanks everyone for their support and prayers and your concern. Thanks Jared for driving me home on such short notice. Much love to you all...and Praise God cause she's had a rather quick recovery and is doing fine. So now the weekend is over I'm glad I got to go home, visit my mom, see the fam...missed them much. And yesterday I counted and it's only 22 days before I'm done with this school year and that's just MIND BOGGLING. Where did the time go??? And I've been having so much fun lately chillin' with friends .... jae, soohak, denise, cassie, jason you guys are the perfect people to bum with. I'm kinda not looking forward to the end of the year now...esp with finals lurking around the corner. *sigh* But everything must come to an end right? *sigh* I guess just make the most of my time left now ^_^ posted by Sewa at 1:39:00 PM # |
