Wednesday, July 31, 2002 ( 2:54 PM ) Brandy Adventures at the Doctor's Office: Part 2 I went back to the Health Center at 1:30 to get my chest x-ray. I got to wear a paper gown again, joy. When the x-ray technician put my film up on the illuminating board or whatever you want to call it, I immediately saw the problem. The entire lower right side of my lung was all yucky. I went back and sat in the waiting room, and the Doctor called me into her office about ten minutes later. She was very glad I had come in today because I did infact have Pneumonia. She wrote me a prescription, which she informed me would be around $100, so I am driving home to Redlands tonight so that I can use my insurance. (I am a moron and don't carry my medical card with me.) I also called into work and talked to one of my supervisors and he was very sympathetic, and said to take a few days off and just call in sick, but then bring in a doctor's note when I come back and that'll clear everything up. I'm glad to be going home, I am going to leave tonight after all the traffic lets up. Hope everyone is doing better than I am. This brings an end to my Adventures at the Doctor's Office Series. 0 comments ( 12:51 PM ) Brandy Adventures at the Doctor's Office: Part 1 I woke up this morning at 7am and called in sick, as I could not breathe. I then tried to go back to sleep, and finally did until a little before 11. I got up and went to the Health Center at my school. I forgot I couldn't park on campus without a summer permit but I took my chances anyway. I wasn't about to walk half a mile from the street in the 100 degree heat with lungs barely allowing me to breath. So I went in and saw the Doctor, she was very nice. I even got to wear a paper gown, yay! When I told her I had mono, then the flu, then bronchitis, and now this, she was perplexed. And after I told her I took Zithromax for Bronchitis and it didn't help, she was like "..." Apparently this Zithromax anti-biotic is the newest most potent drug that is supposed to kill like everything, and completely treat bronchitis. I'm a medical phenomenon, what can I say? She wants to get a chest x-ray of me, so I'm going back at 1:30. Adventures at the Doctor's Office shall resume after my return from being soaked with radiation. 0 comments Tuesday, July 30, 2002 ( 9:18 PM ) Brandy Chainsaw in my Chest. Satan in my stomach. I think I have pneumonia. I feel as if I swallowed a chainsaw and it got stuck in my chest and it got turned on. Every breath is a struggle not to hack up my lungs. Most of the time I do, though. By this date whenever I cough my stomach aches in soreness and my chest, well... Just imagine a freakin chainsaw in your chest, like I said. I also have been attending work with a fever. Very smart seeing as how I'm constantly handling guests' tickets with the same hands I cough into. Yes- I do want pity, so shutup. I was not sure what was going on at first, I thought I was getting better, I still had my cough but my stomach didn't hurt so bad. but then after my dance class on Friday it just all went down the shitter. Since that day I have been getting sicker and sicker until now, I can barely breathe in, it hurts immensely. My roomate advised me that I might be the lucky carrier of Pneumonia. Now I know I'm not doctor, but the last two times I have diagnosed myself (Mono - bronchitis) I have been correct. I looked it up and read about it, and I have nearly every single symptom of pneumonia. I shall be visiting the doctor tomorrow. Will I go to work? I'm not sure yet. This brings me to my next point: Handstamps. Yes folks, that's right. I want to talk a little bit about handstamps. I had the pleasure of standing at the exit for two hours giving out handstamps for the guests who were planning on returning later in the evening. The stamp read "LUCY." No, I do not know why. It is probably some Universal character in some movie, I don't know, and I don't give a fuck. Now when people come through my turnstie, these were my most popular stupid comments made today: 1) If I get a stamp, can I come back in later? No, actually I'm just stamping your hand with a random word on it for my health (which obviously isn't working considering my current health status.) 2) "It says Lucky!" I shit you not - probably more than 50% of the people - adults and children, read the stamp as "lucky" rather than "lucy." 3) "Lucy.... Is that your name?" I wear a name tag. 4) This isn't so much of a response as a reaction. They sort of stare at the stamp in confusion, wondering if they should risk putting their hand on the ticket stand so I can put a couple letters of ink on it. 5) "Nope no thanks, we have a plane to catch at 5:30, so we can't come back again, sorry!" All I heard was "blah blah blah I'm a fucktard wasting the employee's time who doesn't give a fuck." They're doing me a favor by not making me work and stamp their hand, why bother me with the rest of the meaningless dribble they have to accomplish that day? I'm sure that interested.... Oh that's right, none of you. But that's okay, I just needed to get that out for myself. Working the turnstiles is the most tedious job, as is dealing with the foreign guests who don't understand...... well, anything! Well I need to rest, maybe the chainsaw will turn off eventually. I shall expect "Get Well" Cards and Barber Shop Quartets at my door harmoneously singing me back to health in two to three business days. 0 comments Sunday, July 28, 2002 ( 6:36 PM ) Brandy Seventh Concentric Circle of Hell Today at work was horrible. I made SO many mistakes selling tickets. At one point I literally almost cried because I couldn't fix a jam in the ticket printer and no one would fucking help me. Then this one lady - OH MY GOD. First she tells me one thing, and I do the transaction. Then she says "Oh I want to make one of these adult tickets into an annual pass" (She said this in spanish - so I was very proud of myself that I understood. No one else in my booth was bi-lingual.) And I swear to christ she said "And one more adult ticket" - I repeated it back to her like 3 times at least, I said "Uno boleto por el ano, y uno mas boleto por un adulta." I sure I didn't say that perfectly but despite my white-ness she seemed to understand me perfectly and agreed with what I was repeating back to her. So I do that transaction and then she tells me something completely different! She's like no I didn't want another adult ticket - WTF. So I void out that shit and start over, and then I shit you not she tells me SOMETHING ELSE. I have to void the FUCKING goat ass transaction again (which is a major pain in the a-hole) and do it over - finally she fucking leaves... Then about 20 minutes later one of the head supervisors comes in the booth and tels me ther's this lady outside that says I didn't give her all the tickets she asked for. At this point I was removing a bobby pin from my hair and heading for my eyeball. And this was while I was having the major printer problem and that's when I almost cried. About a million other things went wrong, and I seriously thought I was going to be under like 100 bucks. But I came out at -2 dollars, which isn't a big deal, they dont care unless it's over or under 5. I'm so happy I'm off tomorrow - I need a break. Though I'm most likely not going to rest, I'm going to go to EDGE and see what's goin' on there and hopefuly get a few classes in, and write down some auditions. Today was the laker girl auditions and I really wanted to go, but I had to work. I have been wanting to go to that for 3 years now, and every year something comes up on tht day. But In the past few months I Have realized that the dancing ability in LA is going way down, I don't know why that is, but it seems that in every class I take I have a technical advantage over almost everyone in the class - definitely not to be conceited... I just owe it to myself to start getting my ass to more auditions. I'm tired - and King of the Hill is on. 0 comments Saturday, July 27, 2002 ( 2:13 AM ) Brandy Tonight was interesting. Hip-hop was good. There were a lot of horrible people, but that doesn't bother me... It just makes me look that much better! Shane and his evil twin Shaun came to watch for a while, they seemed impressed, as I was asked to perform the routine later in the night... I didn't do it, though. On a stage is one thing, but in a room with 8 or 9 people staring at you is quite another. After class I seriously felt like I was going to die. I have not fully recovered from bronchitis and my lungs didn't exactly enjoy the two hour work out I gave them. I called Shane trying to as nicely as possible get out of coming over, but he told me Nicole had just arrived (a co-worker), and she's moving back to Pennsylvania on Wednesday and I really wanted to see her. So I went over there, and just hung out, didn't drink. A couple other Universal people came, and a bunch of Shane's friends. Sadly Genaro couldn't make it, I think because he has work at 10am... That's not that early though, gimme a break! So I took Nicole and her boyfriend back to their hotel around 1:15am, and we said our goodbyes :( I am going to miss her, she was my favorite person to work with I think. I hope we keep in touch! I think my 4th nearly non-existant roomate is coming here tomorrow, she's pretty cool to hang out with. Well It's past 2 and I gotta get up at 9:30 for work so I'm out - 0 comments Friday, July 26, 2002 ( 12:12 PM ) Brandy Not working is enjoyable. Today I woke up at 11am (just incase any of you were confused as to if I slept in till 11pm... riiiiight...) got up, talked to my roomate for a minute, watched her struggle taking out the recyclables and trash without offering to help, watched some Crossing Over with Jon Edwards, and came online. Leanna (my roomate, that's her name) left for the weekend, Jen's at work (one of my other roomates), and now I'm sitting here in my cumfy old navy pajamas, blogging, and listening to Fiona Apple (courtesy a la Leanna's great CD stash she brought a few days ago). I love doing nothing. You never really appreciate doing nothing until you have a job and don't get very much "sitting around" time. (I know my new friend Bill will agree with this, he's Buffy the Vampire Slayer's bitch - a PA.) My other plans for today? Going shoe shopping, possibly going to Universal to get a new ID (yah, I lost mine - what a retard), going to my good friend Kevin's hiphop class tonight at Millennium (I can't wait - I freaking love his choreography), and then getting trashed at Shane's. I hope he gets a lot of the polish people to come. That comment was probably completely random for those of you who don't know that a whole slew of people from Poland work at Universal. Guess that's it for now. Off to watch more mind-numbing television shows on my non-cable TV. Therefore i'll inevitably be fooling with the fucking antenna for more than half of the show. Also, I have cereal! Yay for Froot Loops!!!!!!! 0 comments ( 12:02 AM ) Brandy I fucking hate blogger. I just wrote like a page and lost it all. STUPID STUPID STUPID. Well the jist of it was that I worked today in the sweltering heat and dealed with many moronic people. Though in the original post I included an amusing story with a lady blaming the hot weather on us. Because last time I checked we at Universal control the weather. Anyway, I got home and made some food...... YES, you read right, food. I went grocery shopping last night, I'm extremely excited. Cereal, soup, pasta, and bacon for god's sakes! Bacon! (I know Aaron will appreciate my purchase of bacon - our favorite thing in the world.) So as I was eating the phone rang and it was my friend Shane from work! He wanted me to come over so we could go get "supplies" for the party he is having tomorrow night. So we went and did that and got some good stuff, and then proceeded to call every one we know to make sure they know about and are going to attend the party. That took exactly 30 seconds, as we only had like 3 people's phone numbers. I talked to Genaro on the phone for a good 20 minutes as well tonight, though I am extremely reluctant to write anything about him now because I mentioned this url to him and I am terrified that he might actually read it. Yeah well I'm tired as christ in a barrel (thanks for the phrase, Aaron). I shall blog to thee faithful blog readers on another day. 0 comments Wednesday, July 24, 2002 ( 4:38 PM ) Brandy Oh good lord I am tired. Sitting in an air conditioned booth all day sure can get tiring! But seriously, folks... Last night was good. We had a "meeting" for all of the admissions hosts but it was more like a party. It was in The Globe Theatre in the park, and I walked in to see what looked like a ballroom decorated for a highschool prom. Many tables draped with purple crushed velvet table cloths, confetti and decorations covering each table, and complete with El Pollo Loco and Pizza Hut catering. Yeah - we really covered a lot of info. I sat next to Genaro and we just joked around, drew, and wrote haiku poems the whole time. I can definitely say that we bonded. I should be going to a KSA audition right now that I heard about yesterday (it's a dance agent) but I don't have any more headshots printed, and i'd rather not go than go unprepared. Me and my damn stubborn self. Tiredness fills my body rapidly. Nap time! 0 comments Monday, July 22, 2002 ( 8:35 PM ) Brandy I have come to realize that I post nearly three times as much as my fellow bloggerians. Yes. I have that little life. Oh well. I enjoy blogging, but I never get any comments, so that must mean no one likes reading it. Guess I'm just typing for myself here, then. Today was my day off... And I got my shop on! First I went to Glendale Galleria and bought a shirt from Express, some jeans from Rampage, a shirt at Forever 21, some bracelets from Hot Topic, and some shoes from Macy's (Yay Steve Madden!) Then I stopped at Burbank Media center and bought another shirt at Express, a skirt from Lerner's, and a purse and a belt at some Korean store where everything is really cheap. I have had my eye on these white and red Puma's and I think I'm going to buy those tomorrow. Gotta go pay attention to Fear Factor now - they have to sit in a tank with tarantula's all over their head, eeewww! 0 comments Sunday, July 21, 2002 ( 6:47 PM ) Brandy I was five dollars over. I shortened someone five dollars change most likely. Eh! I'm over it. I was SO TIRED on my break today, I fell asleep next to Bill on the comfortable black leather couch in the breakroom and was late clocking in, oops. Bill. I Have not typed of Bill lately. He's still really cute and stuff, but he doesn't seem to like me any more than a friend so oh well! Last night we had a little par-tae at my place. Marianna came (my 4th nearly non-existant roomate... she's hardly ever here) and brought three friends. Then Jen's boyfriend was over, and this other guy Ross came over too. Phil bought us alcohol and stuff. I didn't get drunk, I was SO TIRED I went to sleep early. Curtis, one of Marianna's friend, got pretty drunk. He had 80 ounces of beer and 2 mixed drinks. I went to bed around 12:15 but Ross came over at around 1am and woke me up so we could chat. I like Ross a lot... My roomate Marianna also realy likes him though. And while marianna knows he doesn't like her, she would still hate me if I tried anything with him. (She's a drama queen...) I'm tired I'm going to sleep, peace 0 comments Saturday, July 20, 2002 ( 8:07 PM ) Brandy Today was a VERY enjoyable day. Did that put you all at the edge of your seats or what? I got to chill with Genaro for a few minutes before work today. He looked so hot... Work was easy. I worked strollers, then crowd control, then re-entry for about an hour then I got to go home. Genaro got off about 30 minutes before me and he walked by the gate on his way to the parking lot to say "bye" but by the time I got off he was still talking to someone at another turnstile. So I said to myself "god dammit, I've gotta make something happen." So I put my head up high, and marched over to him like the strong confident woman I am. Yeah I woulda done that. And then I woulda slapped myself in the face. I really did walk over to him though, and in the calmest, coolest voice possible, I said: "Hey what're you doing tonight?" He searched around for an answer and settled on "helping my parents put new floors in my house." lol. I made up some ass lie that me and my roomates have parties every saturday and that if he wanted to come hang out he could. He sounded genuinely interested, but he hadn't driven to work that day, he took the bus, so he couldn't come :( BUT then he said "since I live so far from northridge, maybe we could just hang out in LA some time after work." SCORE MY SWEET ASS OFF. He also mentioned a couple more times he'd never been to a "college party" and that he'd really like to come hang out with me and my roomates some time. And also.... he hugged me today!! :::shrieks like a little girl and frolicks about a green meadow with an acordian:: : So I came home to find that we actually ARE having a party tonight, haha. I am going to be REALLY PISSED if I have fun tonight, because Genaro could have been here! Oh well - every one hope and pray that I get piss drunk and throw up all over my living room, ciao! 0 comments Friday, July 19, 2002 ( 10:04 PM ) Brandy I would like to take a moment to CONGRATULATE my friend Bill on being hired as a PA on Buffy!!!!!!!!! In his own words which had me rolling: "I JUST GOT HIRED AS A PRODUCTION ASSISTANT ON BUFFY THE MOTHERFUCKING VAMPIRE SLAYER!!!!!! HOLLYWOOD, YOU ARE MY BITCH!!!!!!!!!!" Bill is a screenwriter who just moved from Chicago and he's going to be great, I know it! Read his diary if you get a spare minute (do you call it a "diary" bill? lol) it's really entertaining to read. 0 comments ( 12:31 AM ) Brandy Here I am, nearly recovered from my whirlwind with death. Or Bronchitis, whichever you'd like to call it. I went out tonight for the first time. I went with Aaron, Gina, and Kim to the Hooka Bar. Am I stupid? Damn straight, I am. I went to the damn hooka bar and probably inhaled all kinds of lovely things in which to pollute my infected lungs with even more so. I didn't smoke actually, so I just got the excess of whatever came off Aaron's. Eh, what're ya gonna do. I don't feel any worse so I guess I'm okay. I have to drive back to LA tomorrow. How I look forward to the drive. And then it's back to work on Saturday. I shall shout with glee at the moment I lay eyes on Genaro. As if. A more realistic scenario would be me nodding and smiling and saying "hey what's up?" when I see him. Time for some shots of cough syrup, yum. 0 comments Wednesday, July 17, 2002 ( 1:48 PM ) Brandy This post won't be very long because it hurts to sit up for too long. I went to the doctor yesterday and he diagnosed me with Bronchitis. I get to take some pills, and this DISCUSTING cough medicine that tastes like vodka I swear to christ. Therefore some of you out there might actually enjoy it. Today is the first day I do not have a fever, just the headache and discusting sounding cough. I don't cough when I am very calm. But as soon as I laugh or raise my voice it all goes to hell. My chest hurts - back the couch. 0 comments Monday, July 15, 2002 ( 7:54 PM ) Brandy I do not enjoy being sick. I can barely breathe in, It's the weirdest feeling. My chest is all tight and whenever I cough my head feels like it's going to explode!!!! I tried to go out and do something today, but it didn't work. I went to the mall with my mom and sister and after walking for about 30 minutes I was so tired and weak we just had to go home. I slept all the way home, and then slept for 2 more hours after that. I think I'm going to call in sick tomorrow. I can't even imagine feeling like this and standing by a turnstile for six hours taking tickets. I'd probably punch someone in the face. You can only be nice to the stupid people for so long. I saw Mr. Deeds yesterday. I really liked it. I wasn't expecting to like it because Cory didn't like it, and I always trust his opinion on movies. But I laughed throughout the whole thing, good show, Adam Sandler. Going back to sleep - night! 0 comments Sunday, July 14, 2002 ( 4:00 AM ) Brandy Good morning fellow bloggerees! It's bright and sunny today and I can't wait to get out of the house and be productive! Could you sense my sarcasm? It's about 4am... I am so sick. I have tossed and turned for the past 4 hours so I finally just got up. I am sweating so badly- yet when I take the blanket off of my shoulders it as if a tundra comes out of nowhere and creates icecicles on my whithering sickly body. My head is pounding and my entire body feels like it was run over with a steam roller. (I am reminded of the scene in Austin Powers - "NOOOOO!" "Get out of the way!" "NOOOOO" - ok I know Gina at least knows what I'm blabbering about.) I left work early today. I was not near as sick as I am now, but still not feeling wonderful. When I asked to leave I could tell they didn't believe I was sick. I promptly drove home to Redlands, and made a bee-line to my room to take a nap. When I woke up I could have sworn a boulder had been dropped on me in my sleep, that's when I really started to feel sick. So what am I going to do on my 20th birthday? (which happens to be today if I haven't mentioned it 87 times already in previous blogs) Most likely sitting on the couch watching DVD's. Oh joy. 0 comments Thursday, July 11, 2002 ( 9:09 PM ) Brandy Today I hit rock bottom Well, actually... Today was falling through fifty feet of crap and then hitting rock bottom. I went to work, I had an 11am shift. I took tickets for the first 3 and a half hours, and stood at the exit for the last two. Yes, just stood there. I didn't even have to do hand-stamps. I just got to stand there and be uncomfortable for two hours. What's so bad about standing and getting paid? I didn't see Genaro at all! Where does the rock bottom/fifty feet of crap part of my day come in? Well hold on just a damn minute and I'll tell you. I drove to the bank after work to deposit my check (Which was actually quite large due to working 8 hours on the 4th) and a guy came up to my car to inform me that my tire was flat. COME THE F*#% AGAIN? I just got a flat tire about 4 weeks ago probably. I had to take my ass to Firestone and buy a new one because apparently there was a lovely nail that had wedged itself into my tire therefore deeming it unfixable. There's $69.34 I'll never see again. My little sister turns 18 tomorrow... We are so old... Her boyfriend bought her a DVD player. Where as I am giving her tickets to Universal Studios in which I got for free. My gift pales in comparison but she'll just have to deal. As for me - 3 days. Will I get to go home for the big day? I'll find out tomorrow when the new schedule gets put up. A childhood memory of mine was completely tarnished today. As I was taking tickets the Woody Woodpecker character was right by the entrance signing autographs and taking pictures and all that jazz... As I walked into the employee breakroom to take my break the Woodpecker must have walked right behind me because I turned around and..... DUN DUN DUN IT WAS A MAN IN A SUIT!!!!!!!!!! He had taken the head of his outfit off... It actually really freaked me out... You're not supposed to see stuff like that, employee or not, it's weird! In a closing note, here's a little tip. When LEAVING a theme park, you do not need to show your tickets... and Children that are 3 DO need a ticket and NO I can't let you in "Just this one time.".... Thank you and goodnight! 0 comments Wednesday, July 10, 2002 ( 7:26 PM ) Brandy Something has recently come to my attention: The greater population of the United States (among other countries) is literally retarded. Is it honestly that hard to walk through a turnstile one at a time? Or write your name and address on a yellow form without having to ask for a second copy because you messed up on the first one? I realize all I do in my blogs lately is complain about guests at my place of work, but.. It's just unbelieveable that people are so stupid. A children's ticket is 3-9. I sent back so many 3 year olds today because they needed a ticket. And here was something funny: A lady and her daughter walk up to the gate. ME: How old is she? LADY: Ummmm.... 2 and a half. Brandy takes notice that her daughter stands well above the turnstile and could easily be in first grade. She raises and eyebrow at this illegid monster-sized 2 year old. LITTLE GIRL: OK. Enough complaining for one day. I got to see Genaro today for quite a bit, which makes me ecstatic. I have the same shift with him tomorrow. If I see him at all I might ask him if he wants to do something after we clock out. But I probably won't because I'm not slick like that. I went home on Saturday night, it was good. Besides going to the overcast beach and watching Donnie Darko we swam at Emily's house, and went shopping where I bought a shift from Abercrombie that I really shouldn't have due to it's price and due to the fact that I already have enough clothes to clothe a third world country of chidren - and fashionably, at that. Countdown: 4 days until my day of birth. I don't know what I'm doing yet. I'd love to have a party at my house... But the party I have in mind includes a keg, lots of liquor, a house full of friends, no parents, and Matt Damon. Waita minute. What's ironic is that my parents actally leaving the house for an entire night is less likely than Matt Damon showing up on my doorstep. It's just about 85 degrees in my apartment - No I'm not kidding. Time for a dip in the ol' swimmin' hole. 0 comments Tuesday, July 09, 2002 ( 12:30 AM ) Brandy Sweeeet Home Ala-...waita minute.. I'm in Redlands. Anyway, so yeah, I came home last night around 1am. I got up early this morning and went to the beach with Aaron and Emily. Of course it was completely overcast, so we didn't stay for very long. So that part of the day sucked but tonight I watched one of the best movies i'd ever seen in my life. It was called Donnie Darko and I'm not even sure how to explain it... and I'm sure i'd brutally butcher it if I did try to explain it, so I shall refrain from doing so. It was really an unorthodox movie. I am not really sure who the protagonist/antagonist was... But I did like it and I guess that's all that matters - screw trying to figure it out! I'm tired as ass... I'm out! 0 comments Saturday, July 06, 2002 ( 6:06 PM ) Brandy I just got home from a very busy day at Universal. The park was freakin' packed today. I really dislike taking tickets. You put one ticket into the machine, and then one person can go through. Then the turnstile immediately locks. No matter how many **##&(% times I say "One at a time, it locks." Nearly every single person runs into the turnstile and goes "ouch!" or "It's locked!" Or if they're a little kid they climb under and completely screw my ticket count up. Another not so rare thing that happens is a guest runs up to me and starts rambling to me in spanish. I'm sorry, do I look mexican? Because last time I checked I was 100% white girl. An upside, I got to see Genaro today. While I was working one turnstile he was working the one directly across from me. So whereas I didn't get to talk to him since we were both busy, I got to stare at him until he went on his break, yay! lol. Then I came on my break when he was leaving, but we crossed paths for a bit again and we got to chat for a few minutes.. I have been trying to show him to my friend Nicole for days and finally she got to see him today, and she goes "Oh, I know who he is, he's nice!" So apparently they talk all the time so I told her to put in a good word for me... We'll see what happens. I switched shifts with this guy Kris so I'm going to be able to come home late late sunday night. Then I can stay until Tuesday night. Then hopefully the next Sunday I will also get to come home for a day because it is my birthday and I want to leave my mom time to take me shopping and by me these awesome Steve Madden shoes among other things I'm going to beg her to buy me. I have work at 5pm tomorrow. I hate the late shift :( My friend Nicole works in the morning so I won't get to see her. Genaro's off tomorrow. Tomorrow's gonna suck unless my friends Kori or Abner happen to be working. Oh well, money is money I suppose. I'm out - peace. 0 comments Friday, July 05, 2002 ( 7:11 PM ) Brandy Yeah so um... I felt like blogging, but I don't really have much to say. But I always end up rambling on for paragraphs upon paragraphs nonetheless. This is my day off... I woke up late, talked to my roomates Leanna and Jen for a while, then they both went home for the weekend and left me all alone, damn them! So I got ready slowly, went to the mall, bought some pants from Old Navy, and a belt/head wrap at Charlotte Rousse (It's 2 in 1.... you'd have to see it to understand, it's basically just a piece of cloth you can tie around like a belt thing or put it around your head.) Anyway, then I came back here and watched Singin' In The Rain. I just love Gene Kelly so much. One of my favorite tap numbers of all time is in that movie, I want to watch it like 2424 times one of these days and learn it. After I finished the movie I came online and I've been sitting here ever since. And it's not even 7pm yet, bah! I was supposed to go to Wade's class but the chick taking my credit card number said it wasn't good - stupid whore, I use that card like 3 times a day. My friend Chris who is one of Wade's TAs made a few calls to try to get me in but he couldn't do it. So hopefully he'll come over after class and entertain me. Meanwhile I'm going to sit here and probably watch a movie i've watched 800 times already becaues i've watched all my movies 800 times. Don't wait up - peace 0 comments Thursday, July 04, 2002 ( 11:32 PM ) Brandy Happy Friggin' 4th. I just worked for 8 hours getting paid double, YAY. I made bank but shit was it a long day! The park was soooooo busy. I had to work strollers for a long time but I worked with a cool guy named Abner so it wasnt bad. I only saw Genaro for a few minutes, he got off practically when I started working :( But Saturday we start at around the same time, yay! So here's something interesting. I got a call from England on my cell phone at 1am! lol. Well I guess it would be interesting if I didn't know who the person was, but I did. It was my friend Jay from England whom I met online a few days ago. He called me from his school, It was 9am there. I didn't think it would work but I gave him my number for kicks anyway and I guess he figured out how to call the US because he surprised me with a call in the middle of the night, yay for Jay! lol. His accent is so damn sexy, I wish I could understand what he was saying half the time! When he spoke really quickly I was like "...huh..." ok anyway tomorrow is my day off and I have jack shit to do - woo freakin hoo. peace! 0 comments Tuesday, July 02, 2002 ( 11:08 PM ) Brandy I am so homeless next year. The girl I was supposedly going to move in with in September like fell off the face of the Earth. I'm going to talk to Jen about living here next year I guess, I think Leanna sort of wants her own room though, so I might be living on the streets for a while next year, gee, I can't wait. I am so tired, why I am I still awake? 0 comments ( 4:22 PM ) Brandy gimme a break - i don't think my url came through... go to www.engrish.com 0 comments ( 4:21 PM ) Brandy . YOU HAVE to check this out. It's basically a bunch of english phrases around Japan that make NO sense, or are just really funny. Gina showed this to me and I almost had a hernia from laughing at it for so long. My favorite one is a shirt with a rainbow and hearts all over it and the words say "I hate myself and I want to die" - you know some american just designed this to fuck with them.... and it's genius!!! I went to work today and I did a whole lot of nothing. They gave me an extra 20 minute break, and then let me go 20 minutes early. I get paid for my breaks, and the 20 minutes early I left... So I essentially got paid for an hour of sitting and watching SNL in the breakroom. AND.... I got to chill with Genaro for a good 20 minutes. He is so hot!!! Speaking of hot it's like 85 degrees in my apartment - i'm out, peace 0 comments ( 6:58 AM ) Brandy Ok, I thought I would be happy about this morning shift thing, but it's 7am right now and I am soooo tired and I want to go back to sleep. I slept horribly for some reason, I woke up like every hour. Probably becaue it's so freakin HOT in my apartment. But yeah... Off to Universal I go to be inevitably yelled at by numerous guests like I am every day - don't wait up! lol 0 comments Monday, July 01, 2002 ( 1:41 PM ) Brandy Okay I lied about going on strike, I have no will power! What has been going on in the land of brandy, one might ask? Well I'll tell you! So keep your pants on, crimony! Well first of all I went up to Santa Barbara to visit Wes and Cory and their friends this past weekend and I had a lot of fun. Emily, Lisa, Justin, Prakash, and Katie came too. I didn't know Prakash before, he was friends with my sister actually, so it was cool to get to know him. And I Hadn't seen Lisa in forever so that was cool too. And of course it was great seeing Wes and Cory because they are the two nicest guys I know I and I love hanging out with them. And they live walking distance from the beach, that's so cool! I came home Sunday afternoon and went straight to work at Universal. It was a busy day but still fun, I got to work with Bill for a little while (yay!!!) and I only saw Luis for a second, bah. And I have not yet mentioned Genaro! I worked with him at CAP on last Thursday (cap= celebrity annual pass) just me and him, he is so hot! I found his name on the schedule and I'm working with him like all this week, score my ass off! I have all morning shifts this week thank God. But yeah, it's 2pm and I'm still in pajamas so I'm gonna get up and go to some dance classes - peace! 0 comments ( 12:39 AM ) Brandy I am going on blog strike until Cory starts to blog again! : ::sits in chair and folds arms:: : hmph!!! :) 0 comments |
