What made your day today?

[Milieva]

It is nearly my birthday!!   On that note I already have one of my gifts.  I have a new bicycle.   I am such a five year-old at heart.  ^.^

I have the greatest adventure getting the thing into my car to get it home. My car is little. I have photos. I am sure you all will get a kick out of it.

First and foremost. It is Saturday, and I am sure a few of you know what I am currently downloading at the moment. _{God Bless High Speed internet and the Tennant_Love community.}

TEN MINUTES TO GO BEFORE I CAN WATCH *pokes download*

*giggle* He always waits until the last minute to tell companions about that little "trick".

I swear i replied to this thread two days ago. O_o;


(I was giggling and agreeing with you, Mils. XDDD)


anyway. HOPEFULLY WATCHING PIRATES TONIGHT >DDD (J-chan has already seen it in england, and I'm not allowed to talk to her until I have too, because I will ask for spoilers and she will tell me. ^^;;; XD )

[Milieva]

Actually this is what made my day on Thursday.   But whose counting?   I haven't been on and it has been my birthday.  _{I am the dictator/ pirate king}

PIRATES!!!  The film was fantastic!  I loved it.  Went to the showing in costume with my friend who went as Norrington.  That was fun. I couldn't get my accent right.  I usually can do a nearly flawless Cpt. Jack Sparrow, but as I have been out of practice and watching other things that involve a different type of ship, I found my accent turned to a weird muddle of 9/10/Rose/Cpt. Jack Sparrow, which kept making me giggle.

I love the fact that it freaks people out to find that I am girl when I am dressed up in that costume.  I suppose the idea that a girl would dress as a male pirate is strange?  I would love to make the costume Elizabeth wears on Sao Feng's ship.  It is beautiful.

I was also struck with a silly drabble idea when it comes to someone being voted "pirate king".

Now for today:

I went out to lunch with my gran, two of my friends, and a friend's mum. It was lovely.  One of the girfts was in a bucket and covered in socks as the wrapping, and the other which was wrapped normally in lovely paper, contained a Jolly Roger, among other things.  That just made me giggle, an dI want to hang it out side, but I don't know what the neighbors would think.

This happened on Friday, but I don't care.

I left school! And then it was our Leaver's Do/Prom/Whatever you want to call it.
It was amazing!
Anyway, I enjoyed myself.

Now I have some A-Level exams to do...

[Sidherequiem]

Those are gorgeous Chinese styled outfits Sao has Elizabeth wear! When I saw them I was like "How do I make these?"

anyways... internets! Yay!

[Revolutionaren]

I watched Pirates yesterday.
It was really good. It was better than I expected it to be.
Good stuff
I will now go watch Doctor Who on the Beeb. Only five minutes to go...

[Gracita]

My friends Melanie and Luke let me and my boyfriend Chris borrow their copy of wario ware smooth moves for wii, it's freaking AWESOME!!! XD ...Ohhh, and did I ever tell you guys I made my own Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu miis? They're adorable!

WHEN WILL THIS WEEK END? DDD:

*drowned by work*

Must. Make. Friday. Test. ...

(If no one hears from me again, sing Hoist the colours Over the hills and far away in my memory. >.> Or a pirate song of your choice!)

[Milieva]

I missed Splash Day.  All because a co-worker had a dentist appointment this morning. So I had to work in a different room this morning instead of helping in the older room. So I wore my swim suit this moring for nothing.

We were going to be taking the pre-schoolers out for water play.  But I missed it.  *is so disppointed* I am such a little kid at heart. That would havew been brilliant.  The play yard is wet and muddy now, but I know the damp children I saw earlier had fun.

I suppose making a fuss over that is better than the other thing that was frustrating me today. I really need to get back to doing sport or something. I am too seditary for my own good. I idiotically stepped on a scale this moring and was not happy with that I saw.  I've gained 10lb since the last time I weight myself. Good God. *groan*

So yeah, Mils is not happy with her day so far.

...my own school does not accept letters of rec from its own education professors for graduate programs...so now I have to go bother another professor.

...And the European college system hurts my head.  What on earth are modules and how do they function?  At least I have a whole week to review things...

...only 4 essays left!

[Sidherequiem]

WINE. 'nuff said.

...And the European college system hurts my head.? What on earth are modules and how do they function?? At least I have a whole week to review things...

From my understanding of modules, modules are like different topics. And in the course I'll be taking, there are two core modules which I must take and then, I can choose which other modules I want to do.
Did that help at all?

Knowing that my AX plans are turning out just fine.

But also my performance review was yesterday.  At Starbucks (and probably a bunch of other places) you get rated on a scale of 1 to 3 (which is also the percentage of your raise).  A 1 is Needs Improvement, a 2 is Meets Expectations and a 3 is Exceeds Expectations.  It's possible to get right in the middle, so they do a lot of rounding.  Basically 1-1.59 is a 1, a 1.6-2.59 is a 2 and 2.6-3 is obviously a 3.  Have I lost anyone yet?

Anyways, my first review was like a 1.9 or a 1.95, so I got a 2.  I was told to improve and if I got a 3 on my next review, they'd look at me for a promotion to Shift Supervisor.  That was back in January.  Fast-forwarding to yesterday.  I went in, went over my review with my boss and everything went fine.  After some calculations, it was determined that I got a 2.61 this time, which rounds up to a 3, and within the next 2 months, I'll get my promotion.

So yeah, that's what's made my day.
