The final essay in my history class was ALSO about women! SO we have the first essay on women to the turn of the centry and the 19th Amendment, and then we have the second essay on women after the 20s! It's TRUE, MY TEACHER WAS A BLOODY FEMINIST! XD. Well, actually, it wasn't completely her doing. The questions were chosen randomly. I put up a complaint on it because it *was* the second time, and it was the ONLY essay I didn't prepare for. So she told me I could do three essays on women then ^_^**. It went great, though because I wrote on it for 10 pages 0_0**. I'm serious ^_^*. It was ALL from pure memory. I am teh skilled, hah. This time, there were only 2 names I really had to remember. And I didn't dwelve too far into the feminist movement because she spent only 15 minutes overtime lecturing on that, heh.

Uh, I did a LOT yesterday. I was going to write about it but I was kicked off so I decided to go to bed, crying at 9 pm -_-. I slept for 10 hours and I still feel tired ~_~. Anyway, yeshterdey I WORKED. It was pretty interesting. I got there and was LOST, but ran into some workers who stuck me on their cart and took me to the employee place. I could NOT figure out how to stamp the damn card correctly >:0. Gah. I was put on the cart AGAIN to be taken to the grandstands, where I spent the rest of the day. I kind of tagged along with my supervisor for 15 minutes until he got to me, gave me my pick and bag and said "I might see you later" 0_o. I did not see him for the rest of the day. So, basically, my coworkers told me how to do everything, and I learned a LOT from my mistakes.

Mistake #1. If the garbage you're picking up is not cigarette butts or paper, you shouldn't be picking it up. No one told me I wasn't supposed to actually go up to the stands -_-

#2. Don't pick up behind the counters

#3. don't let people throw drinks in there that are full

#4. KNOW WHERE THINGS ARE
- I got better at that by the end of the day...

#5. Don't think that you're not going to get beer ALL OVER YOU.
- Yeah, that was pretty sick -__-.

Gah, my knees really hurt by the end of the day,but this was to be expected. As for my coworkers... two of them were VERY nice and helpful, the rest of them were relly quiet(I would say "stoners", but that's really not a nice term), there was one other girl 0_o. She was bossy, dare I say *bitchy*?, a chain smoker(well, actually everyone in my group was), was 17 and had a daughter she took drinking with her, but a good worker. She scares me ~_~. Let's hope I won't get on her bad side. So most of my day is spent picking up cigarette butts and tickets off the ground. Around 5 pm, when the races are over, I get to trek along with the garbage wheeler thing and start taking care of the garbage cans. That was the funnest part of my day. But it also looks like I won't be working until 8 pm. My superviser said NOTHING about any breaks, so truthfully, I could sit around in the stands and talk to people, doing nothing, and still get paid. I met a lot of people I know, and some new guy. He stood around while I was picking up cigarette butts in an area I called "the chain smoker's circle" and counted down literly MINUTE BY MINUTE of the time left until he went back to work. He did NOT want to be on break, I'd say he was a little TOO excited about work. Maybe i can see why, he's a cashier -_-. I talked to Nathan a bit. Looks like he's into Sonic Adventure DX now. GAAAH. I wanna play that ^_^**. I've been wanting to play it since it came out on Dreamcast ages ago 0_o. He said it has GREAT music, which kind of surprises me, but hey, it's possible.

I swear, as soon as I get my paycheck, I'm going to spend ALL OF IT on Nintendo games just to piss my parents off. Let us do some calculations here. I'd probably make about 600 bucks... and 50 bucks per game... aw that's only 12 games. OH WELL, LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE THE TOP 12 NINTENDO GAMES OUT NOW! XD. In truth, I'll probably be buying two at most. A sonic game and Wind Waker... That game is for keeps. I don't have any time to play it anymore though ;_;. In time TG will catch up to me and I'll be like )#^#$(_*^%! I remember when Koop first got Mario Sunshine, I was ahead of him by 30 sprites at that point. 3 days later... "Hey Arky, I got 50 sprites now!" @(*&#)*(&%!! Gah, I 'm slow -__-. Anyway *ramble ramble*...

While I was sitting around, waiting for my parents to show up, I was easvesdropping on this REALLY intense conversation with this guy on the phone with his girlfriend, Anya. OMG 0___o. This was like Soap Opera material. RIGHT before my parents showed up, he gave her an ultimatum: Leave where they were staying at because he got verbally abused daily for just being there, or end the relationship. He said something like "You must decide NOW because your decision could change or end our relationship from this point" GAWD I wish I had stayed earlier >_<. He was literally, sitting there next to the taxi cab, ready to move on. Poor guy, I wonder how it turned out for him...

Gah, 11. I have to go to work now ;_;. The next rant I have in store is about presidents 0_o. Let's hope I'll have enough energy for it >:0.

OMG. I finally find the Fair's petting zoo today and as I'm sitting there, petting the little baby goats, when I saw this little POOFPALL chewing on my show laces. IT WAS A WALLABEE! I had never SEEN a Wallabee, certainly not PET one before! I wanted to die of cuteness overload. Gawd XD! I RESISTED the urge to grab it, put it in my lap and snuggle it for a long time XD. whaaa~.

I explored the fair a bit ever break... I'm sorry, but I do NOT want to go there on my off day anymore ~_~. I'll get really sick of it by next Tuesday. I'd rather stay home and sleep.. for the whole entire DAY. I think I had more to say, but I forgot. Anyway, let's cut this a little short. My day was much better than yesterday. I can't wait until Saturday when I'll be betting. I THINK I may have enough energy for my presidential rambling.

LET'S SEE HOW THIS GOES.

Uh, I've been talking to Larry, my favorite coworker <3!, a lot. He's so nice and fun to chat with XD. He's talkative, but really not rambly, which is what I like, and he actually listens to me too XD. He's nice and polite and has LOTS of cool stories. He's been to Florida for 3 years XDD. Well, lived there. I swear, I have an affinity for nice Floridian friends. Everytime I see him, we chat for about 30 mintues, so that's how I take my breaks ^_^*. He's been in the army for a while, and he knows very LITTLE about the computer ^_^*. He just learned how to send e-mail just a few days ago ^_^**. He was telling me about how he is annoyed that he writes down all these internet addresses on paper, and I tell him "no no, Larry... see... there is this thing called 'bookmarking...". Heh, and he said it was real funny because his brother is a computer programmer XDD.

Oh, and I am obsessed, hooked. It will only get worse. I spent all the money I had on betting on the races. The first time, my horse took last place ^_^*, but the second time, mine took 4th and it was a SERIOUS close match... I've already SHARED MY SECRET PLAN with some... What I plan to do is go ALL OUT come Saturday, when the most people show up. I will attend one of those early morning racing seminairs and go to the bank to use up some of my money ^_^**. I'll see how

Good stuff, you are "Wedding? I love
weddings! Drinks all around." You're the
life of the party and nothing gets you down,
not even certain death at the hands of your
zombie nemesis or the Navy. Come to think of
it, realism isn't your strong suit...

I AM TRULY THE SORRY, LJ BUDDY-PEOPLE. I know my frequent POSTING today is really irritating. Hey, I don't do this all the time...
