Chris and I are going to rent a house. Well, not just me and Chris but us and two others. Those two others hopefully being Kael and Jade. My best friend, and his best friend. I'm looking forward to this. Yeah, I have to stay back another year but this is a pretty great upside.
Jade will be here on the 19th to visit for a week and a half or so. I'm gonna spring the question on her, I'm gonna ask her to marry me and have my babies and stuff. You know, live with me. I'm really excited about this. She's my favorite girl in the world and since I am unemployed I get to spend lots of time with her. I hope she says yes, I bought a pretty ring and everything.
I am definitely taking her to the strippers. Since she's 18 now I can LEGALLY take her there. I don't think she's been out drinking legally yet because she lives in Kamloops. It's not exactly as close to Alberta as Dawson is. She's bummed Steven isn't here for it, and I am too.
I hope she likes everyone that I can out with regularly now. I hope she can tolerate Skylar. I've gotta convince her that he can grow on you... I'm excited. Yay... something to look forward to.

Langara
So Langara sent me a lovely email asking for certain information and certain requirements before I could be admitted into Library information and technology. The prerequisites that were listed before I applied was just for me to have completed grade 12 or be 19, which I have and I will be. NOW however, after I've applied they're all like "You also need 90% in English 12 or a C- in a university English class. You need two letters of reference, and we also need to meet you in person and do some testing." What. the. fuck. Being a librarian does not seem like it would entail this much work, does it? Now I'm stuck in Dawson for another entire fucking year. You suck Langara. I hate you.
On the bright side: Chris. He's the only reason I'm not going to Vancouver and doing these courses there. This gives me another year with him, I like that. I like that very much.

It's not much but it's something.

Legacy
So I loved my job. Probably the best job I've had in a long time. Got paid 12$ an hour, time went by quickly, I liked everyone I worked with. It was a pretty good job to have for a year or so. At least, I planned to be there for a year, but sadly at 7 months, I am leaving. My boss is a bitch. And my other boss is also a bitch. They are bitches. Once apon a time I had gotten a little too comfortable at Legacy and started slacking off a bit. Not all that much really but I guess Tawnya thought so and decided to sit me down and have a little talk about it. Basically she told me that I did nothing and just let everyone else do the work, which was not true. Me and my co-workers made lists of what each of us would do that night. I always completed everything that was on my list, and did it well. Every other day we would switch lists and it never mattered which list I had, I always got shit done. However, my co-workers were doing extra things that I wasn't and so the kick in the ass that she gave me did me good.
The month after our little talk I worked twice as hard as everyone else, then eventually I slowed down to working just as hard as everyone, however still being one of her best employees. Two months after our 'talk' I started to notice that Tawnya and Cameron (her husband) where leaving me out of things, teaching the new, part time people things she wasn't teaching me. She even started reteaching people how to close till, and would no longer let me do it. Then the other day she decided she wanted to have another 'talk'. She told me a couple things I has been doing wrong that I understood, I had been showing up to work a few minutes a few times a week and she brought up that Chris is kind of inappropriate with me when he's there, which I understood alright. Then she told me that the other day Cameron was going to march down to the store and fire me on the spot, after seeing me leave the store while the store is closed, to start my car. I guess this is a security thing and I'm not allowed to leave the store while we're closed, I did not know this. He was going to fire me on the spot for something I did not know I was doing wrong. If it were anyone else he would not have reacted like that, and I know it.
As much as that all pissed me off I wasn't going to leave over it. Then she told me that I haven't been doing enough around here again. I regret not punching her in the mouth. Then because she knows she can't fire me for doing a good job of things she tells me that I should consider that Legacy isn't the right job for me.
Okay yeah I get it, for some reason you don't like me, you've shown it since day one, I'm not going to fight you, I'm leaving. Thanks very muchly for nothing you bitch.
