How was your day?

If you're being srs I'd love it. If you aren't being serious, I'd still love to hear it.

This is a good start, this is assuming you have at least 20-30 lb increment dumbbells. If you're going to the gym (you'recrazy) then obviously go for barbell squats. Dumbbell squats are effective but just in different ways, while barbells are like FULL body work out. If you do this while doing cardio every other day you'll probably show definition in a month, nothing like major, but subtle.

Happy new years everyone!

School is done. Started getting into piano recording again (I was told to and I thought about getting into it). Here was the first piano recording I put. Kind of happy how it turned out even though I know there is room for improvement.

After ruining my LG G2 back in July, I can finally re-contract this month and I cant wait to get an iPhone 6.

Dad ordered (and it just got delivered) cards against humanity thinking it'd be okay to play with my 9 and 11 year old brothers

I don't even........

I'm playing Digimon World 3 on an emulator ;3
God this game is awesome.

Also a pretty productive day for decorating my room. Got a cushion and a beanbag chair, got a painting from my parents that they didn't want anymore which I've hung up on my wall, and I fixed my broken wall ready for wallpaper.

Tomorrow i'll be helping my dad fix up the storage room so I can move some of my parents stuff out of my wall closet. Then I can move some of my stuff into it, making my room easier to tidy.
I'll also be cleaning up my window, ready for the new blinds i'll be getting next week.

And i'm getting my haircut tomorrow!

I'm glad I've finally got my motivation back to do stuff. After my birthday on the 7th i'm gonna start looking for a job again too. Feels good.

Waiting for for my pay cheque deposit to go through is agonising because the right side of my earpods dont work anymore... its not like im totally broke or anything ... cough.

My grandmother died today. Last time I visited her she didn't recognize because of her illness and because I hadn't seen her in a while. I didn't get to see her this time either. I feel so guilty.

[syj]

Decided to move my school schedule around so that I can not have cash shifts at work, aka leave room for morning shifts.
waking up early>doing returns for gifts without prices on them

[DeanNim]

Decided not to get the earphones because an iPhone would come with a pair of earpods anyway... so :( Also had fun jamming to Like a cat at the apple store though lmao I bet the staff wanted to get rid of us.

I've had better. I had a price adjustment today, and the customer didn't bring in any of the items, and they were all Christmas items going from 70% off when she bought them, to the 80% they were now. After having issues where they weren't letting me return multiple at once because they were being hand entered, I asked my store manager to come out and help. Before he had gotten there, I realized what the issue was and told him what I think was going wrong. He, in a noticeably aggravated tone, told me he was going to stay there while I finished the transaction so that if there were any more issues he didn't have to come out again. Then he took the receipt from me to read me each number, but because it was a price adjustment, there were a few extra buttons to press in order to get the items entered, plus some of them didn't ring up automatically at the correct price. 15 minutes later we finished, and luckily the customer decided it wasn't worth it to do the other receipt because it took too long for what she would have gotten back. From the one receipt, she only got back $16.

Then about 15 minutes later, when the next cashier came on, my store manager told me to go leave early, which really is starting to piss me off, because this is the 3rd time in a week that I was sent home early. I understand not making sales and all, but you shouldn't punish the employees who need to live and survive off the meager hours they're giving us, especially when the store is being run with the bare minimum of employees as is.


TL;DR: some customers are asses, and manager is a bit of a plantain, and I need a new damn job.

You really shouldn't price adjust any seasonal merch when it goes on sale. Sales aren't applicable to prior purchases, if the customer wants to return all the product in hand and then rebuy it all after I restock it then sure but in my store I don't allow price adjustments like that en masse. One or two things? Sure but not a pomegranate ton and definitely not Christmas Sweep. Surprises your management let that happen, given that sales are really stagnant right now and that just more lost profit in the trash.

As for the being let got 15 minutes early, tbh 15 minutes does not save any hours. If I were you I'd see if there's some animosity going on and address it if it continues and try to solve it like adults.

As for me, one more closing shift then I'm done being an Night and Weekend manager and done with Michaels in San Antonio. This weekend I'll be moving to Austin and it still doesn't feel real ugh. I'm so nervous.

I'm gonna party like it's my birthday.

Because it is! It is my birthday!
(no actual partying will be involved)

So at some point during winter break, we had someone come in and move into the room that was empty all semester. Turns out, he's the biggest slob. When I left, I cleaned everything, so naturally I was surprised when I saw mountains of trash and dirty dishes in the kitchen. We barely passed our dorm inspection last time due to unexpected circumstances and we're on pace to actually fail it this time. Spent tonight cleaning up after his s'hit to the best of my ability

On a more positive note, finally got to meet all of my professors for this term and I'm getting positive vibes from all of them, so this semester might be an interesting one.

When I went skiing during the break I fell and hurt my tailbone, it hurt for around 3 days then I was back to normal.... well I started doing squats again cause I like em. Got to 135 easily and felt a sharp pain from my tailbone and stopped there, currently back to being in tailbone pain. Hopefully its nothing serious and will go away for good in a day or so.

Other than that my marks are improving steadily but very stressed for exams. Keep myself motivated by promising myself korean bbq and dimsum after exams
