I am almost down to a year of writing!! Even though in the past couple of months I haven't written everyday but I have written more than I use to!
Today was fun. I really wasn't planning to do anything but then I remembered that my cousin Mel wanted to go to this ceramic place so I went with her, her/my nephew Tristan, my other cousins Nana, amir and yasmina. we picked out some clay ceramics and painted them. I did a mug and a flower bowl. It was fun and very therapeutic :) loved it.
After wards we went to Ben & Jerrys had some ice cream and what not....hung out at Nana's for a while and now I am home. I can't believe that the weekend went by soo quick. Wish it was Saturday again!! Ugh....lol
Anywho I should get to bed...or atleast start the process of getting ready to sleep LOL.

ALMOST TWO!!! So sorry...I guess I got caught up with work and everything that i kept delaying...but I promise NOW that I will do everyday till the last one!
Ok so what's going on..alot, work has been busy as hell, I've missed out on the summer...this time last year I was always at the beach tanning and relaxing, now I am working and stuck inside...but atleast I've got the weekends!
Sarah's birthday week was awesome. We started off going to BAR at 12am on Sunday; then that sunday we celebrated again with all our friends. Then this weekend we went to the casino, drank and played. Saturday me and her met up with her family at Quassy...we beached it the whole day..we got lost going there and going home...CRAZY but it was a fun lil adventure getting lost in our own state HAHA.
I got tan a little; awesome, I need to tan some more before September comes LOL; that to me is the end of summer...I can't believe how FAST these months have flown by. It feels like it was just march when I started at my job...now it's mid-july and almost August! Freakin' nuts!

0 comments Published Wednesday, May 26, 2010 by Tasha in lostWork was lame...ugh don't wanna even talk about it lol. Anyways here is my theory on lost:
I think that everything that happened on the island was REAL; the smoke monster, the hatch, the time traveling, etc.
As for the "alternate universe" place that was shown on season 6 was 'limbo' the place between reality and the afterlife.
I believe everyone except for hurley, ben and jack had left the island and lived there life but when they died they created this "place" where they can all meet up, so I think that everyone who was in the church died at a different time.
It kind of reminded me of the five people you meet in heaven minus the 5 different people; it was just like a time and place they all had picked to meet up.
Sounds confusing? don't worry I'm confused my self a little trying to explain it HAHA

0 comments Published Tuesday, May 11, 2010 by Tasha in 365, job, learning, life, thoughts, tired, venting, workWork was good; I only got like 5 hours of sleep ugh and in the morning at work I was falling asleep LITERALLY; my eyes were so heavy and I just wanted to get up and leave that is how tired I was...and it did not help that no one was calling in for orders or anything LOL.
So Yesterday at work a franchisee had called in in regards to a cookie case drawer his manager had ordered for one of his stores and he tried to blame me for a mistake...let me rewind a little; a couple of weeks ago (probably last week or so)the manager called in saying he received the wrong cookie case and that he was going to send a picture of it to show me how it was differnt and so, and I was like sure w/e. After I got off the phone I looked up the store and it was actually out of my district and a different coordinator that ordered the wrong thing. So back to franchisee yesterday he was saying something like "I know that your new and everything but this has happened twice already; it must be the way YOU are ordering it, we're going to have to figure this out and return the drawers so I don't have to pay for the mistake..." basically blaming me, so when I asked him for the store #'s he gave me the one that the manager from one district and another one...when I looked under the memo screen one was ordered by the other coordinator and the other store there was no full set of drawers ordered...so when he finally stopped talking I was like "Sir, I didn't order those drawers those were ordered by Cyndi your other coordinator and there is no order for the other store..." and it got quite and he was like...well i'm going to have to talk to her and get this straigtened out....he sounded like he got caught...ha.
Oh man, it was just crazy.
Tomorrow another day at work + a meeting at 10, then we have another meeting on Friday.
Anywho...time for bed!

I am sooo tired.
Had a cinco de mayo celebration with Sarah in the back yard with nachos and some coronas :) how lovely!! haha
I had my first customer service surveys this month (well I think it was last month) Every month or so they survey 5 random stores from my area; the first one gave me all 5's and gave a really positive response, second and third gave me all 4's but then the fourth one...man that fourth one...first of all they gave me a 3 on my overall work attitude which is fine, then for the rest all 1's....which really upset me because it brought my overall average down; their comment went something like "Very nice, but doesn't retain new info as much always has to 'ask her supervisor'. It's getting old." but my boss told me to not worry about it because Linda, the director of my department (she goes over these comments before hand) said I'll get better in time, and even my boss told me they didn't even give me a chance...I mean I wish these people would understand that I basically have to learn a shit load of stuff to accommodate their needs; they've done this what for like 6 + years and are use to just getting answers from their past coordinator; I just literally started this job 2 months ago...so aggrivating; but I am not letting it get to me; I like this job too much to loose or even quit it; the people there are great.
Ugh but enough of that; I think I should head to bed...I'm an hour late hhaaha.

One of my co-workers left early today because she wasn't feeling to good; her magnesium was too low (she had cancer but she is in remission); I hope she is ok and will be in tomorrow.
There is going to be a new person at work next week. That will be cool LOL. I'm almost permanent at work..woot wooot!
It was soooo hot at work today. Even though it was down pouring this morning. I had to put the fan on; but after wards it was FREEZING.

0 comments Published Sunday, April 25, 2010 by Tasha in 365, bars, birthdays, family, happy, lifeSo last night was a blast.
Went out to Joker's Wild in New Haven with my cousins Amy and Mel, and Mel's friend Kristen. It was so much fun. The comedians were hilarious and the food & drinks were great (better experience than the NYC comedy club) Had a chocolate martini that was REALLY strong, then I had about 4 murphy's stout lol. I had this awesome sandwich called the "No Joke Steak and Cheese" it had obviously the steak and cheese plus onions, sauteed mushrooms and BACON! lol
Afterwards we went to another bar which use to be my favorite place (the Playwright) but now it is called something Wolf (I can't remember the first part) but they had a band called the Zoo which is like a cover band, they were voted the ultimate cover band by MTV; they weren't too bad; good music.
Today the family came over. The usual Sunday gathering which was fun. Had lots of food and desert (cookies and cupcakes!!) I'm deciding whether to buy a camera now or save up money till later...I mean I need a smaller one for like concerts or if I go out to the bars and stuff (because my baby nikon is not going around with me everywhere LOL) I'm thinking of buying the Canon HD 12 megapixal one. So if I record a video it will be nice and clear lol.
Tomorrow is another week of work :) I cannot believe that Friday will be 2 months completed! I'm still on trial (90 days) but I think it is going good; I think it is...Then Saturday I am moving in to my sister's for a week because my parents decided to take a vacation lol.

0 comments Published Saturday, April 24, 2010 by Tasha in 365, bars, family, friends, fun, happy, job, life, thoughts, workOk so Yesterday work was slow (which I had mention) but I think I know why; in CO one of the franchisees' husband had passed away from a stroke, and the community (along with owners/managers) knew him. The scary thing is that I just literally talked to him on Monday and I talked to the DA offices and they said they just saw him on Thursday. He was healthy and everything; even lost a few pounds. These things happen and that's the scary thing because it can happen to anyone. He was young; early 40's I believe. So sad. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
After work I took a nap and then went out to the bars. We tried to go to this one bar but we couldn't get in because of ID issues with a certain friend...hahah...but we finally found a bar that was good and it was a karaoke bar too haha. So much fun; I had a few drinks and I tried this banana split martini (OMG SOOO GOOD!!!) then me, taylor, and Lin did a peanut butter and jelly shot. Omg it was sooo good too lol; it smelt like peanut butter and tasted like jelly amaze-balls lol.
Around 1am we headed back to Taylor's house; hung out for a bit then walked over to the diner and got some much needed food; whenever I drink I crave a juicy cheese burger lol haha. I was so annoyed with the fucking highschool teenagers eating behind us. UGH so annoying shouldn't they be in bed, it was like 2am damn...lol even the owner was getting annoyed.

When I was walking outside to the building I saw my co-worker Cheryl who also is from West Haven, she hit it too.
My supervisor came in late today, she came in at 2pm-ish I think she had some errands to do.
Today was actually a really good day; I only got about 4-3 calls today and I did my sales, plus out of all my 342 stores only 7 stores were estimated (usually I get 18-13 stores a week estimated).
Someone must be watching out for me up there :) and I thank them :D
Today was a nice day too; but then it rained and then the sun came out and then it rained again...the weather couldn't make a decision LOL.
Ugh almost time for bed....atleast tomorrow is FRIDAY!

Today was Administrative Appreciation day; where we thanked our department secretary for all her hard work. Jane is such a nice lady and funny as hell. The department got her flowers and two boxes of cupcakes for everyone...it was sooo good lol.
Today was a nice day; although I did not go on break to take a walk outside; I was too lazy lol.

Weekends are becoming just a glimpse now. It kind of sucks. But I like my job enough to stay and the money isn't too bad :)
Work was pretty good today...the morning just REALLY dragged. We had a coffee/dounut day courtesy of Fred Deluca (founder of subway); treated everyone to Dounkin Donuts haha. Today was a nice day; it was cold but then it was nice, had lunch outside with the ladies as well; a bit windy but we made the best of it.
I miss hanging out with friends when I can...and it's getting harder and harder to make plans with people; for two reasons only ... I work M-F and then when the weekends come I only have Saturday to my self and then Sunday is 99% of the time Family Day .... ahhh. I guess that is life though right? Ugh...

As every thursday is...
Collected sales for most of the day; put orders on hold till after 3 when sales closed out for the week.
Then I had to send out a mass email to all my franchisees because there have been credit frauds going around and one customer is suing a franchisee for 66,000 dollars (I believe thats how much).
one of my stores (which I found out today) was breached and is now a victim of the credit fraud; hopefully they could recover from this asap.
I'm hoping that is the only store of mine.
Tomorrow is an early day...yikes; atleast I get out early and I get to cash my check

I put in an order for a part they needed last friday and I sent out a comment saying Hot Rush Over Night it. She called Wednesday to see if it was sent out and I told her I would try to contact them. Well I got caught up with work and everything that I forgot (we're human we forget).
She calls today and asks where it is and has an angry tone, I told her I would call NuVu and get her a tracking and then she asks to speak to my supervisor. And then while I was getting her I hear her talking to someone mocking me ... i wanted to just say on the phone "umm I'm still here and I can hear you mocking me".
So I really got angry and I thought she (my supervisor) that she'd get angry with me because I made a mistake, I forgot that when I do that, that I was suppose to call the vendor and tell them I sent an overnight.
But luckily she was understanding and I called the vendor and tracked the item. Called back the person (left a voicemail and apologized) I felt bad I truly did and it sucks that that person had to mock me while I was on the phone.
AHHHH but anyways I got a new phone...finally :) time for bed!

First off I was almost an hour late to work because of a major accident on the highway...which I did not know because our cable is off.
Work was ok today. Busy with a lot of stuff but I got the work done.
It was so hot...I did not even go outside for my break.
It was up to 88-90ish today where I worked but towards the shore, where I live, it was around 86 degrees. It was still hot.
Went for a run at the beach...ugh too much lol. I need to get back on this running gig, I have not ran in so long.
I did about 2.56 miles today which isn't too bad I guess lol.
Maybe if I run this weekend it won't be bad, I'll probably run to the beach from my house; it's like a 2-4 mile run I believe to the chick's restaurant. not too bad.
I'm ready for bed!!! ... Tomorrow a new cell!!

And what a lovely day it was! I remember last year it was so cold, we all had our winter jackets and everything. It was at least 67-70 degrees out today and I was so hot!
I made turkey (weird to have on Easter I know lol) and then my brother made prime rib which was SOOOOO good; and he also made homemade horseradish dip for it! Yum!
I think I gained like 10 lbs today LOL.
It was such a good day that I ended up going for a nice job around the neighborhood this morning. I only did like 1.5 miles because I haven't ran in so long.

Finally a TV that does not have a ringing sound that would drive me nuts!
Yeah my old TV had this ringing noise because it was an old one and it would drive me crazy, it was more of a buzzing sound than ringing.

Yeah HQ was open on Friday; but most of the vendors we ordered from were closed so we could not ask questions to them. Most of the franchisees thought we were closed so we did not have as many calls as usual; which was nice, I got to catch up on some work, clean out some old folders, update my call list, etc. I think I got more emails than calls today lol.
Some one in the kitchen downstairs was cooking something delicious; around 10am-ish I smelt cookies and gram crackers baking lol; then some of the people from work came around the aisles with a tray full of cookies that kind of looked like a tortellini shaped cookie. It was a fancy smore, inside was melted chocolate with marshmallow ...SO GOOD! Than I had an apple cake that my co-worker brought in, and another co-worker also brought in a nice treat for us which was cute.
Lorraine comes back Monday, and Diane is back from work (she was out because she went through chemo therapy but shes better looking good too). I'm gonna miss Sue (she was the floater who was covering Diane's desk for 2 months); she keeps me entertained with the crazy calls she gets lol.
Today was a good day; cannot wait for Easter! And supposedly I'm getting a TV tomorrow as a thank you for watching my kids for free for all these times from my brother lol

So heading up to work I notice all these people standing across the street. At first I thought it was franchisees getting a tour of the buildings (weird I know) but then I realized there were cops at our building.
Apparently someone had left a voicemail over night saying that a bomb would go off in the parking lot of our main building at 9am.
It was crazy. I got there at 8:30 and we didn't go in till an hour later. So when we finally got in the building we were behind in work and everything else. Nuts.
It was soooo cold out this morning!
Eventually we were let in and work was just nuts today. But it made the day go by faster...but then again I did not go on break at all today because it was just that busy. Tomorrow will be even crazier. Sales. Blahhh I just want the weekend here.

Today was hell. 3 people where out from my aisle.
Lorraine was out for surgery and Diana (who I have never met yet) is still out on medical leave. She has been out for 3 months now, but the woman who usually covers her, Sue, has Mondays off. Then Cheryl was out sick today so we were really busy. I covered Lorraine's phone all day today. It was ok, kept me busy though which was good.
It was just crazy in the office...Danielle who was covering Lorraine's emails (which I thought Rita was today) put in an order that I put in Friday when I was covering her emails. I did not want to delete the email just in case I needed to refer to it again...
And then I had to cancel 3 orders that some stores did not need anymore because their DA said it was not necessary anymore...after they told everyone on Thursday to order it because it was required...YEP! that's my life LOL
I am so ready for bed. Seriously! I am so tired right now. I am just waiting for 9pm to roll around so I can hit the hay...I might actually go to bed earlier ha.

After that Me and her went to Target, I bought a dress and some running pants and new shoes :D; we went back to Broadway in New Haven to get Sarah's new backpack and I ended up buying a north face jacket :) it's really nice it's light enough but it's good for when it rains.

Transmitting sales and what not. I mean this morning wasn't too bad it was ok and everything but after lunch I had to cover my co-worker Lorraine's calls because she is out on medical leave. Her area is so nice! I mean I love my area but her area is well prepared haha, they either have the item # or the correct name of what they want which is amazing. haha tomorrow I'm in charge of her emails.
Work is good, I'm starting to pick up on a few things and recognizing items without asking my supervisor what it is. She actually noticed that I am picking up quickly when I closed out sales on my own LOL
I'm ready for bed...Oh speaking of bed time; I was taking a walk outside my break when these ladies (around 40-50ish) were walking behind me and I over heard their conversation. I guess one of the ladies is going on a cruise and isn't taking her friend because she sleeps in too late...as in 10am late LOL I was like man...I'm at that point now where 10am is almost late for me too...hahah.
The weather has been absolutely beautiful lately! Today me and some co-workers ate lunch outside. So nice, it was up to 67 degrees! Hopefully this stays like this for a while.

Had corn beef for lunch, it was pretty good. My co-worker Lorraine got it from some restaurant. Speaking of Lorraine, she is going to be out for a week. She's getting hand surgery. Hopefully all goes well.
Tomorrow should be a busy day...It's the deadline for sales and it will be pretty crazy. Between calling stores and making orders it will be nuts-o! But it should make the day go by quicker.

I know this week will be pretty busy though because both my DA offices are holding Franchisee meetings a day apart and I'll probably get a million calls LOL.
So between work being slow, my supervisor gave me a list of courses I need to take on "university subway" website lol. It's miscellaneous courses that different departments have to take. For example today I did 3 courses, first one was how to make a party platter, then learning about CPC (sales info), and the last one I took was School Programs (I have 7 stores that are part/or in a school). It's not bad, some classes can be 2hours some just 10. And we have to take a test after wards which wasn't too bad.
The weather is pretty bad here. Its so windy and cold. It's still raining. It's been raining since friday...CRAZY! Ugh I am freezing right now, and the wind is so strong I can feel the house shake...ugh.

The fight was good, kind of boring LOL, I was really hoping for a KO but it did not happen and they fought all 12 rounds...made it longer than I hoped it would be haha.
Today I went to a family friend's birthday party. Her daughter turned four and they had it at a place called "my gym" and it was all gymnastic's and stuff, it was pretty neat.
Doing laundry now, relaxing till I go to bed, which is fairly soon, probably around nine-ish or after I iron my clothes lol.
Tomorrow is another week at work (haha I almost wrote school); pay day on wed. is going to be the big kahuna. I'm excited but then again not because it's all going towards bills LOL.

I had to make a call sheet for the weekly sales and it took most of the day to do between answering phones, emails, and learning from my supervisor. But I finally got it done.
It was long but I got through it.
I also handled my first fustrated customer today, I had my supervisor with me guiding me through it, what to tell him and I just kept calm, she told my co-worker I didn't even break a sweat haha.
It was so nice out, at my 10am break I took a walk around the parking lot. That was nice, to get some fresh air!
Hmm...that's it, nothing else really interesting happened at work today besides that :)

0 comments Published Monday, March 8, 2010 by Tasha in 365, happy, job, learning, life, weatherWork was ok today. My area was pretty quite.
The job is still hard but my co-workers are helping me through it which is a good thing. Lorraine, who is the oldest there she is 75, told me it took her 2 years. I hope it doesn't take me that long but we all work on our own pace :)
Lets see what else happened...nothing really; I wish I had a radio at my desk, when it gets slow its really quite...so I might bring in my ihome for now until I get a smaller one.
I'm getting better with the phone so that is good. I can't really order anything without my supervisor but I can look up everything else.
The weekend went by so fast...this week is going to be slow, but hopefully not.
ugh...im tired. gonna watch some TV
p.s. weather has been really nice these past couple of days.

Yesterday I had family over and we celebrated my sister-in-law and brother's anniversary. 4 years.
Then we went to the movies and watched Alice in Wonderland 3D. It was pretty good. I was not disappointed, loved it.
I'm feeling really sick today. Not like dizzy but congested. It sucks...hopefully it goes away.
---cont @ 9pm---
so i had sushi night with my cousins and my brothers. It was fun, it was ok sushi lol. I am so tired, gonna go to bed soon, I got a new book called "Diary" by Chuck Palanuck (I think thats how you spell his last name) he wrote the book Fight Club; and the movie is based on it (its the one with Brad Pitt and Edward Norton).
another day at work tomorrow...how fun lol.

I am so tired and I and sick. There have been a lot of people with colds and stuff and it's getting around. I can't afford to call out so this weekend I am going to take it easy.
Today was an early day. I went in at 8am and left at 4:30. I missed happy hour lol because of the early day but who cares it would have been awkward hah.
Had lunch with the brother and his co-workers which was cool, we ordered from this seafood place and everyone in the cafe was like "where'd you get that? smells good!" haha.
I'm getting use to the work. Been answering calls with my supervisor on the phone as well, which at times could be intimidating but its not too bad LOL.
ahhh well I am tired...sorry its so short.

Today was an actually busy day. Most of the Weekly Sales are submitted after 8pm to the offices so on Wed we have to check them and update them. If they aren't sent in we'd have to ask for the hard copy and then manually enter them in (which I did and they were fun to do lol).
Also today I had to make sure all the stores signed the evaluation logs and etc., had to do some emails and answer some questions. I observed on the phone again while my supervisor made calls.
I had lunch with my brother and two of his co-workers. then I had a break at 3pm and went on a short walk with Cindy and Rita (my supervisor).
Ahhh so tired. Alot was done today...I took home the coordinator handbook to look over and read because on friday I finally get to use my computer and I will be registered in the system...meaning I'm probably on my own lol.
My eye has been twitching like crazy today...which means that I am probably stressed out but don't know about it.
Today it was snowing (but it wasn't thick enough to stick) but traffic was like woooah. I was almost a late but this lady (who I don't know but was so kind) she pressed the IN button so I can swipe my ID just in time to punch in before I get penalized for lateness LOL thanks lady :)

But it goes in the ear and out the other but I think that once I start to physically put in orders and take calls it won't be too bad.
We had a meeting today on new stuff that franchisees can order (i was soooo in the blue).
For a while it was slow, because of the time difference and everything, but then towards 2-3pm the phones started to ring.
Lunch is still weird lol, but I like the people I have lunch with. They are friends of my supervisor, they were telling me stories of rude customers they have talked to. Its pretty funny.
I am tired. I'm not use to this; but I suppose it will get better. Last night I fell right to sleep and did not wake up till 6am, fifteen minutes before my alarm went off lol.
Tomorrow is another day, but one of the busiests. We have to do reports so I have to learn how to do that. Must take notes! lol
Oh one thing I like about my aisle is that there is an empty one right behind mine (I am on the right side and first cubicle) and there is always snacks on it LOL/ I'm not decorating it right now, once I get settled I will lol.
Ok I'm going to try to go to bed at 10 instead of 11 tonight.
g-night ya'll

0 comments Published Monday, March 1, 2010 by Tasha in 365, happy, hope, job, learning, life, weatherOh my feet! they hurt! LOL
Today was my first day at work. It was fun. Everyone is extremely nice there. My supervisor showed me a lot of the things I have to do. It was a lot but she told me that everyone went through what I had. Which is cool cause they know what I am going through. Also my brother told me that it will be hard but I'll get use to it.
I am in charge of Colorado and Washington state. And there is a store that is relocating and I have to order their supplies. But thankfully I did not have to do the phones right now, my co-workers are covering it while I train. Speaking of my co-workers, they are so nice (of course) lol. There is 9 of us, and they are adorable. Most of them are older, there are 2 that I believe are around 27-35 ish. They all made me a sign :) makes me feel even more welcomed there!
Lets see...so going to lunch was weird. It was like highschool all over again, trying to find out who to sit with and etc., today I went with my supervisor and some of her friends it was nice, and I had a sandwich from the sandwich bar and we talked and then we went back to the aisle and she showed me some stuff, on our break (our 7min one) we took a walk around the parking lot with Cindy, she works in Franchise Services as well but in a different aisle, because it was so nice out!
Its a lot of work. I think I will be overwhelmed with it for now but...eventually I will get a hang of it...hopefully.
All I want to do is sleep right now but I know if I do I'll wake up like 12am and then never go back to sleep...its bad. So I am like dosing and keeping myself busy till 11pm rolls around and into bed I GO!
----(cont. at 10:29pm)----
I wonder what they will have me do tomorrow. Most likely reviewing what to do and stuff. I need to decorate my cubical. Its so bland right now. I can bring in a radio to play music, but really low. I need to get like a small iHome or something to hook up my ipod.
Ahhh I am getting really tired now...time for bed!

I am sooo tired and exhausted. I actually woke up at 7am today. Wasn't too bad. Helped with the kids and stuff.
I continued playing the game 'heavy rain'. I really like it. I actually finished the story, two characters died and most of them survived but it did not end the way I wanted too lol. I think I might play it again the next time I am at my brothers, its pretty cool because the stories change all the time from what you choose to do or not do in the game.
I'm watching buffy right now. I love this show, I really like her and Angel rather than her and Spike. Maybe that's why I love Bones so much, because I have a thing for David Boreanaz lol.
One more day till I start my job! I am excited and nervous at the same time!!! ahhhhh!
Oh and guess what I forgot to mention...It snowed yesterday! I know! SO FUCKING annoying.......... where the hell are you spring??

I tried out this new game on my brother's PS3. Its called Heavy Rain. It's really good. I am addicted to it, but I have to start over again :( because it kept freezing. Its like a murder mystery game. Pretty cool.

It is another rainy day ... (and I paused writing...to only continue at 11:50pm!)
Ok going to make this quick before the night is over!
So I went shopping again with my mom. I got 2 more shirts and a cardigan plus pants. Today I broke in my new shoes, my feet kind of hurt but it is not that bad.
I hung out with Sarah for a while, helped her get plane tickets for her friend Nancy who will come visit end of march, that will be fun! I will finally get to meet her instead of talking her thru the phone lol.
Then I watched the kids for a few hours, then headed out to a dinner celebration with my cousin mel and her son Tristan, my nephew. We went to Kumo's in New Haven and had sushi & wine! yummmy! After that we headed to hartford to pick up some tickets that she was giving to my other cousin Amy, we dropped it off at her house in North Haven and then we just hung out there and talked. It was fun. Amy gave me some cheesecake! haha.
Ok thats all for now and I am going to bed soon! peeeace! (and its only 11:59:14pm)

Besides running I was kind of lazy today. I woke up at 10am then...slowly fell back asleep till 12pm haha, oh man, but I did wake up! I watched some shows and etc., that's about it, so borrring.
Then I started to watch this movie "30 Days of Night". Its based on the comic book where these REAL vampires (not like Twilight haah) invade this small Alaskan town during the time when there is a month of nightfall. It's pretty good. I like these kinds of vampires versus the twilight/vampire diaries kind. I mean these are the vampires are the blood thirsty violent kind I grew up fearing, and I love the thrill lol. I am a big fan of the blade series, and the scary ones. I do love Interview with a Vampire (oh brad pitt and "pre-crazy" tom cruise <3).
So anywho I am continuing it right now , had to stop and record it when I went to gym, and I guess one of the survivors is asking the sheriff to kill him to use him as bate so the rest of them can try to escape. Its sad, because josh harret (the sheriff) goes out and axes him...the reason being that the guy wanted to die to be with his wife and daughter who were killed by a drunk driver.
LOL crazzzzzy ahhh, tomorrow the kids are coming over and then I am going shopping with madre again. How nice of her...but I'll have to pay her back after my first pay check lol
hmm...I think that is it for now...this movie has got me captivated and hiding behind my hands lol

I set my alarm at 10:15am but that did not happen. I woke up almost 12pm haha. Last night I could not sleep because I took an extra long nap and did not sleep till 2am (yikes!). And then my dad is banging at my door at 7am asking if the kids were coming over today...my god! lol.
Tonight I will definitely go to bed earlier, 11pm the latest. I really need to get use to it or else I will be screwed!
My mom took me shopping today. I actually enjoyed going to the mall today; it was not packed at all and no stupid teens were there. And it was about 1:45pm too...amazing! haha. So she got me my 'business casual' clothes, 3 pairs of pants (2 of them I need to get altered and one of them I am actually going to return and get a new pair...too flairy lol), 3 blouses, 2 cardigan sweaters (i need like a bunch of them too because of my tattoo I really dont want to expose it), and a pair of black shoes. they are like heels but not really lol. I LOVE them I want to wear them out like to the bars or something. hah.She's taking me shopping again for more blouses on thursday. She's really happy for me and proud, it was so cute when she told me. But I think she's just happy I won't be home doing nothing anymore LOL.
I think that is going to be a good year and hopefully it will be! And I hope to maybe move out of here in 2 years lol.

My mom is taking me business shopping, buying new shoes and office appropriate clothing. I feel like a working woman now! Also its prompting me to take my driver's ed safety class. Yah I know I'm 21 and I STILL don't have my license...yikes. But I am going for it. I mean I drove before just haven't gotten my license.
ANYWAYS...haha, I am currently watching "My Life as Liz", it is wayyy over acted for a supposed 'reality' show but for some reason I always come back for more EVERY week. But I think I watch it because 'The Buried Life' is right before it.
I love that show, its about these group of friends that complete things off their bucket list & for everyone that they do, they help another person do something off their list. It's such a good show lol. One of their episodes made me cry because they helped a girl visit her mother's grave, she hasn't seen her mom since she died during hurricane katrina. It was so sad :(
Ahh I should go to bed soon...I need to get into the mode of waking up at 6am. So Today and Tuesday I'll set my alarm for 9am; Wed & Thu 8 am; Fri-Sun 6am (lets see how long that lasts lol)

Today was fun, I got to meet my cousins from Scotland, they are on Holiday :) haha I love saying that..."On Holiday". They are going to Florida this week so they stopped by today before they left.
It was cool, although they do not have a crazy scottish accent LOL. I think they lived in Philippines at first and then moved there. My cousin is a chef at a hotel in Scotland, which is cool :)
I have the kids tonight. Keara is looking at my photo wall and talking to herself. Its too cute...she is saying things like, "That me. That Tita! That me. That Huntah!" soo adorable! ahh she is too smart!

I am so tired. Hanging out with Jess reminded me of the good ol' times we use to have. I have known her the longest out of all my friends. We go way back to Kindergarten. We had Ms. Gaudinoli (I think that is how you spelled her name). Check out our school photo:
Can you spot me? Jessie had to sit on our teacher's lap because she was FREAKING OUT for some reason. We have known each other for about 17 years...crazy I know. LOL
Yesterday we watched the olympics, I helped her out with getting stuff because she can't really walk, she has to keep her foot elevated and stuff. We looked up our names on 'urbandictionary.com' and it was pretty crazy...it was just wrong and hilarious.
Well thats all that really happened today...maybe tomorrow will be more exciting haha.

...I love it, but I hate it at the same time. I miss the warm weather, going to the beach and just relaxing. I really need to go somewhere warm. People are saying that it has snowed in every state this year, except for Hawaii of course. That is just crazy! I wonder if that is really true...
I have the kids tonight; I took them out to play in the snow and we built a snow man! or should I say snow-woman? Haha. I asked them to name it and Keara was trying to say "girl" but it sounded like "Gail" so that is what we went with haha.
Today was a 'Lost' day. This episode made up for last week's and boy...it was GOOD. Terry O'Quinn is officially my favorite actor, he plays John Locke (one of my favorite characters on the show) and he does an amazing job doing it as well as playing the new guy aka "the black smoke monster". Then on the show they finally FINALLY answered one of my questions! I can't tell you because you may watch the show, but I freaked out! lol.
Hmm...well I think thats all I can talk about now; I'm gettin tired! I'll post the pictures I took today:

0 comments Published Monday, February 15, 2010 by Tasha in 365, family, jobWHAT A DAY!
So yesterday I went running, ran 2.3 mi. It was a good run; felt awesome...until night fall when I was trying to go to sleep. For some reason my lower back was in pain. I was about ready to cry...I think when I was doing my crunches I somehow I pulled something. Ugh I was about ready to like scream of pain. And I wouldn't care as much about it but I needed the sleep, I needed to wake up at 8am to get ready and study.
You see today I had an interview for a job that I really need! It has great benefits, the people that work there are amazing, and I need this job! So...having lower back pains was annoying; I didn't fully fall asleep till about 3am-ish and I was mad. Thankfully I woke up in a good mood.
My interview went well, to me lol. Before hand I had to take a test called the 'Wonderlic' test, it is like the SAT's. You have to complete as many questions in 12 minutes. It wasn't too bad...hopefully I did ok, because if I did not then there is no chance that I will be getting this job.
Then I had 3 interviews, one with Human Resources, the next with the Asst. Director of Coordinators, and the last one with my potential supervisor. It was a little intense but there was a lot of waiting. Overall I was there for about 1 hour and a half. It wasn't too bad.
If I do get the job I'll be working with my brother. Not the same department but we'd be working for the same company. It's pretty exciting and I am praying and hoping that I get this job. I hope God or who ever is upstairs is watching out for me...I truly hope so

0 comments Published Sunday, February 14, 2010 by Tasha in 365, Bright Eyes, Cat Power, City and Colour, imix, itunes, music, Never Shout Never, state radio, top 5Sunday Music Mix #2: My top 5 favorite Love-ish songs || Happy Valentine's Day to all!
"Indian Moon" by State Radio - of course I had to add my favorite band in the WHOLE wide world into this mix right? Not planned at all I swear, but when I was looking at my songs this one was one of my favorite love songs. This song was written for a friend of Chad Urmston, lead singer of SR. He wrote this song for a friend that was getting married. It is a song about love and saying that no matter what happens they will always be there for them. My favorite lines from the song is:
And I'll stand on your shoulders, to watch us grow older. I can see us far along the road, as the trail grows deeper. Your my giver my keeper, laughter for years untoldThis song is usually sung at acoustic shows and I think I can say this is one of my top songs by them :) **could not add onto SR for some reason to imix so link here will let you download for free from me!
----
"First Day of My Life" by Bright Eyes - the first time I heard this song was by Youtube star Julia Nunes. She covered this song on her channel and I fell in love with it. I have heard songs by Bright Eyes before, and I never came upon it till I saw her video. To me this song is about a person who fell in love and it was their first time really feeling this emotion, hence the line "Yours was the first face that I saw, I think I was blind before I met you". It is such a good song, especially if you are in love for the first time and don't know how to express it to the one you are in love with, just play them this song <3 lol.
----
"Jane Doe" by Never Shout Never - not a big fan of their music, but this song is a nice and simple one. This song was tweeted by author of Running With Scissors, Augusten Burroughs. This song reminds me of when you fall in love with some one and in your heart you know that you want to spend the rest of your life with them but you're falling in love with someone that you don't even know their name yet.
----
"Sea of Love" by Cat Power - remake of the original song by Phil Phillips. I don't think this song really needs an explanation of the meaning lol. It is truly one of my favorite songs in general.
----
"The Girl" by City and Colour - this side project band is led by one of the singers for alexisonfire, Dallas Green. Its a song, to me, about a girl who does everything to make this relationship work even though he's off doing his own thing, and to him he knows she'll always be there for him, if she ever left he'd lose it because she is his world. I think this relates very much to his real life relationship to his wife.
*hope you enjoy this playlist! Have a great Valentines day and if you're alone, like me, don't worry you really aren't alone :)

Lately I have been dreaming about being pregnant...is this a sign of some sort? I mean the first dream I was 8months pregnant and just living my life and then today I had a REALLY weird dream during my nap. I was like 7 months pregnant and I was visiting people from my town (I guess I was living some where else than here) and everyone was asking who the dad is and rubbing my belly...then it cuts to a part where I am walking in a mall with a friend and started breaking out in Irish songs...very weird.
Winter Olympics is on tonight, well the opening ceremony at least lol. I remember when I first heard about where it was going to be held I was a junior in high school and me and lindsay were talking about going to it...yah obviously that didn't happen (LOL)
Right now I am watching 'Celebribty Rehab' and one of the clients dog is blind and she has to put him down...I feel like crying because I hate seeing dogs being put down, I've worked in a vet clinic where we would put down animals and it sucked seeing it happen...ok the tears just started falling...ugh I hate seeing that happen :(

I just looked up online what the meaning of dreaming of having a baby and most say the same thing:
Your dream is a very common one and usually represents a new beginning or a new creation in your life. It is generally very positive and indicates growth in your life!
I hope its right and that my life is going the right way. I can only hope for the better :)

But I have not given up on my dear old Betty (that's my guitar's name haha)!! I then taught my self today how to play "Mango Tree" by Angus and Julia Stone. It only involves 3 cords and one of those cords stays put for the whole song so it was fairly easy. The only really hard part is the plucking pattern, but if I watch the plucking video I think I can get it. My guitar is so out of tune; but I think I got it...while I was tuning the E cord (the 1st/thinner one) it snapped on me :( thank god I don't need it to learn Mango Tree haha.
So I applied at my brother's job. He works at Subway Headquarters. Basically he works with the franchise and he is in the department of sales (i think) and he is a team manager and they do stuff for subway...lol I applied for the coordinator job. What that position is is that the coordinator orders new supplies for different stores, handle problems with stores, and I file papers. Pretty basic. I think it pays about $12/per hour, full time w. benefits? I think but I am not sure...I'm going to have to ask when I go for my interview! If I do get this job I think I'll have to go shopping, I only have a one pair of dress pants and limited choice of shirts appropriate for work (I'll have to cover up my arm tattoo)
Hopefully I get this job, I really need it! I mean I am out of school and I don't have a job...my only income is from my mom and when I babysit..lol

It seems my state has gone into full panic mode. Ha I love it. The snow fall isn't too bad anymore. But around 10am-ish it was a complete whiteout. But I hear later in the day it is suppose to get even worse than it is now. Accumulation of about 15" is predicted, even at the shore (where I live) and that is a lot!
-----[continued later in the day]-----
So it snowed even more and now it is icy and slippery out. Complete stand still, people are driving only if they absolutely have too. My room is the coldest in the house right now...I don't know why. The heat is on, my windows are closed...and I taped the a/c (the a/c is in the wall so we can't take it down lol).
I am soooo jealous of my cousin, she and her family is in Florida right now! ugh how I wish I was there right now in the sun! LAME! She got lucky though, they left this morning right before the weather got really bad.
Besides it snowing, I had a movie day. I watched the documentary "Dear Zachary: A letter to a Son about his Father". It was absolutely breath taking and I cried from the beginning to end. It is the story about the murder of Dr. Andrew Bagby by his ex girlfriend Shirley Turner. It was such a tragic and heartfelt movie. I can't tell you much about it because it will give it away but if you ever have the chance to watch it then do. But I do WARN you that it is very very tragic and heartbreaking, and if you get upset easily then you should not watch it.
This is random, but I want to go sledding tomorrow...LOL
