I got myself a brand new phone a couple weeks ago! Samsung Impression. It's all touch screen with a slide keyboard on the side. I'm still getting used to it but I've figured about a majority of it. One thing I hate about it is that I can't send ringtones to myself that I've made :( I can hear the other person a lot better now and from what Rob told me, so can he! I'm glad I finally upgraded myself in that department.

Around the beginning of November or end of October, I got offered a new position at work. GSA (Guest Service Attendant), it's basically being in charge of the front lanes/cashiers. I got the 3 interviews within a week and so far it's between another guy and myself. I haven't heard anything about it yet but I'm hoping it will happen after the holidays. I say hope because of another thing...I got my final warning yesterday. I forgot to sign my key back in. Yeah stupid and small I know, bitches are lucky I didn't lose it or take it home. I'm scared about it. I've heard once someone is on the final, you can't get promoted until it clears and it clears in a year. I pray to God I still get the GSA position. I want it more than anything. I'm going to be more careful now. I'm not getting the key anymore.

Thanksgiving was awesome! I went to Renee's house and got to see a lot of the family. I'm gonna post pictures I took later on. I had such a blast. I can't wait till Christmas to see everyone again.

Haven't posted in a while but I'm going to try to more often.

Last night I had the weirdest night in a very long time. I woke up at 2am and every so often, my head would twitch when I would about to fall asleep. I thought ok it's nothing but then when I did fall asleep, I tried to wake up and I couldn't. I seriously felt trapped in my sleep. I finally got out of it but it was so weird! I felt so helpless. I don't know what that means though.

So I need to do a some venting about work. Saturday I got a documented coaching from one of the managers and my team leader about my performance. Apparently I'm not doing my work. I really do not get this, I bust my ass everyday with my department. I'm constantly doing my go-backs, making sure everything looks organized and everything goes in it's proper spot, cleaning and labeling - well I was slacking with the labeling but I'm doing good now. I have a 6 month probation, it can clear in 6 months if my performance gets better. If not, then it goes to a final warning and can lead up to getting fired.

Today I go in pretty pissed but I put out my anger on work and I actually got 4 aisles done in 2 hours! I haven't done that before and I was so proud of myself. I even did the cleaning. I ended up doing 2 more out of the 8 aisles I have - say what you want, sure 8 aisles isn't anything but it's fucking cosmetics, all that tiny crap to put away and remove shelves and find MORE behind everything. I told the manager who had the talk with me what I did, and she really didn't give me any feedback whatsoever. This is what pisses me off. They say my performance is not good and seems like I don't care but when I show them I care, I get nothing. How am I supposed to care when I get nothing in return?! I pretty much did not care what she thought, I know I did an awesome job today. I mean, I do care what they think but when they show no emotion whatsoever, how is that going to help me develop my leadership and grow as a team member? I work hard. I know I do. I'm working my way to get promoted and it's like they don't want me to succeed when I know I'm capable of. It really makes me mad and hurt at the same time.

There, I feel better.

Rob and I watched all the Sex and the City seasons and movie last week and we kinda got into the subject of what should have happened in the movie and what should happen in the sequel. I felt like pin pointing some things...

- MORE STANDFORD! Carrie is a horrible fag-hag.
- There should have been a scene when Standford tries to cheer Carrie up by taking her to a gay club.
- Charlotte naming one of her kids Shayla.
- I know they cut a scene where Samantha was blowing Smith on the balcony (pictures came out long time ago)

A few story lines came out for the sequel but I'm not sure if they're real. I'll point some out anyways cos I liked them.

- More Standford! lol
- Samantha losing all her money and living a different lifestyle.
- Carrie getting pregnant or having a pregnancy scare.
- Charlotte opening her own art gallery
- Steve's mother passing away (that was in the original script for the movie)
- Miranda having another baby (?)

I had a ton of others but cannot remember.

We started out friends, then became lovers
Everything you need, I got it guaranteed
(I got it guaranteed)
And from the first time I knew we’d be together
When you’re close to me I can hardly breathe
(I can hardly breathe)
And when you said hi, I never recovered
You changed the speed (you changed the speed)
Of my heartbeat (of my heartbeat)
You gotta be mine, I swear I’ll always love ya
You got me out my mind
And I didn’t have to look in your eyes

I didn’t have to look in your eyes (look in your eyes)
You had me at hi
I’m hoping that you don’t say goodbye (don’t say goodbye)
You had me at hi
And god must’ve taken his time (taken his time)
You had me at hi
I didn’t have to look in your eyes (look in your eyes)
You had me at hi

I hope this never ends, hope it lasts forever
When you looked my way I was hooked that day
(I was hooked that day)
I swear you had the chant, you’re like no other
Everything I see, you’re the air I breathe
(You’re the air I breathe)
And if you said bye, I’d never recover
You changed the speed (you changed the speed)
Of my heartbeat (of my heartbeat)
I promise that I will always love ya
I know we’d last till the end of time before I looked at your eyes

I didn’t have to look in your eyes (look in your eyes)
You had me at hi
I’m hoping that you don’t say goodbye (don’t say goodbye)
You had me at hi
And god must’ve taken his time (taken his time)
You had me at hi
I didn’t have to look in your eyes (look in your eyes)
You had me at hi
You had me at hi
You had me at hi
You had me at hi
You had me at hi

Sometime last week, I applied for the electronics specialist at work. The woman in charge of the department and the current specialist herself said me if I would ever want to move up there and I said if I had the chance I would. I find that area to be nice and I know where everything is practically. They told me she was going to be dropping her title to be a team leader for the women's department and I should apply for it. So I asked one of the manager's if there were any promotional openings as a hint and she said yeah for electronics. I tried to act surprised and said I was really interested in it. She seemed happy about me asking and just said to go ask the operator about the forms. I filled one out instantly but didn't turn it in til the next day - I wanted to think about my accomplishments since it asked what mine were. I hope I get it. I really want to move myself up and I hope they can see that. I try to act like a leader more now. And plus it'll guarantee me to keep the same position when I transfer to a store in DC when I move. I'm crossing my fingers!

OH MUH GOODNESS!

So I decided to watch some Sailor Moon stuff on youtube. I came across this fanmade English dub of the final season (Sailor Stars) and I am blown away that a FAN made this!! They seriously kept that cheesy American vibe to it, as to the one that used to air in the US. I'm going to post a few videos to compare and so everyone will know what I'm talking about lol.

Original US opener

Original Japanese opener (season 5; Sailor Stars)

Fanmade Sailor Stars (skip to 20 sec)

Only sucky thing is I wish they kept Haurka (Uranus) and Michiru (Neptune) as a couple as they do in the Japanese version. Their dialog in this one is so cheesy - when I watch it with subtitles, they had a some funny dirty talk in the original haha!

I've probably shared this before... my very first remember-able MJ moments was watching the 'Bad' music video on tv while my mom was in the kitchen cooking. I danced my little heart out behind the couch so no one would see me. I think from then on, I was hooked on that man's music. My mom also recorded his Grammy performance of 'Man In The Mirror' for me and I would play that everyday as a kid.

Despite all the bullshit that man went through, he was such an icon and legend. He changed music. I have nothing but positive energy for him and his family right now.

There are worlds within worlds that keep rotating
And so many thoughts that flow through my mind
If this universe is really shrinking
We'll be together in time

Somehow those lyrics give me a lot of hope...for multiple reasons. I'm definitely getting that as my next tattoo.

It’s falling like a stone down a hole

It’s like going through a mirror to a secret world

It’s when curiosity met insanity

Its flowers that talk like old friends

It’s a mad tea party

It’s chopping off heads

Its Jabberwocky’s and chess pieces

Its red and white

Its madness

Its nonsense

It’s a new world

It’s a Wonderland
