Well today we had:
I actually got up to work out this morning first Friday ever!
I got the new Jeremy Camp album, and my dad paid (normally I buy all my own CDs)
I got a sweet hair cut.
I got asked to speak at another youth group event.

And lastly... APPLE ANNOUNCED A CANADIAN STORE!

Mid 2005! That means like... when I'm out of school hopefully... if I can I'm TOTALLY going to go "see some relatives" in the Toronto area. And do that oh so lovely stay outside the Apple store for forever and a day. Anyone got any suggestions as to how early I should show? Not to mention anyone want to meet me when/if I go? I'll be the hopefully big but not terribly fat Canadian (obviously)... wow that's not to discreet. Oh well maybe I'll post a photo. Hey SWG we could go to that bear bar

Yesterday was a "great" day for me!

1. Got the rejection letter from the college I applied to, trying to get my teaching certification.

2. Broke up with my girlfriend.

3. Can't play Halo2 anymore (Xbox belonged to girlfriend)

4. Got a parking ticket for parking in front of my own house.

I gave my mom my digital cam for the week so I don't even know where it is, but I'll see about posting a photo. You guys might even be impressed with the slight drop in fattitude.

I've been sitting here in Apple Retail Training all day. It has been OK. I would have much rather been watching Michigan get owned by Ohio State.

Apple Store Training... dang I'd take a year off school to work at an Apple Store haha...

Seriously though, I would... I don't know if I'd take another year off but... dang I'd love working in that environment. And I could stay there for a while until I was done school.

my day wasn't too good. long day at work. tomorrow won't be any better the DS hits and our TRU has a little less than 30 so there are going to be a crap load of angry people because we won't be giving rainchecks. halo 2 intro was bad too.

That happened to my dad once - our house is on the corner and it was something about being too close to the stop sign. My dad had been parking his car there for years but the police just suddenly had decided to start enforcing this stupid law.
