So much has happened since I last updated. I got over my clothes-buying crisis the day after I updated. I went back to Target with Ricci the day before my presentation and found a single white bra in my size, these shoes:
and also bought some really cute sleep shorts. Have you seen all the cute PJ’s they have there? SO CUTE.
Everyone told me I looked really nice in my outfit and that made me feel really good (and really silly for having a breakdown the day before). It took me a while to learn to walk in shoes that weren’t flat, but I conquered them! John referred to me as Linguini Legs as I wiggled side-to-side while I was “practicing” my strut all afternoon before the presentation.
Though I kept saying “Umm” (I’ve NEVER done that before) and got the annoying habit of sliding the ring on my middle finger in and out during my 14-slide presentation, I did pretty good. I got a 98 for my final and a 99 for my overall class grade. Woo!
Our new class is Customer Service and man, I was dreading it. Turns out it’s my favorite class so far! Lectures are always interesting, yesterday we got to act out scenarios (one person would be the rude customer, the other the customer service representative) and all of the skits were hilarious. Ricci and I were partners and I was a Whataburger cashier and she was the customer. Today we had a field trip…TO THE MALL! How freaking awesome is that?? We had to interact with 5 CSRs and grade their performance. 4 of my CSRs were wonderful, the only ones that were in sort of “blah” moods were the girls from Rainbow. I do love that store, though. I bought two really cute pairs of sleep shorts for $3.99 each! Cheaper than the (really cute) ones I bought at WalMart and Target! I’m currently obsessed with sleep shorts; not only because the boxers I currently own are about 5 years old (hadn’t bought any since I worked at Old Navy!), but OMG, have you seen the cute styles lately??
We finished up our little interviews and then the whole class met at the food court to eat lunch. We all ordered from Villa Pizza, or Pizza Villa–one of those. Lucy, Ricci and I got the stuffed pizzas (mmm!) and Mayra got the lasagna. I’m hungry just thinking about it.
Oh! Mrs. C-R announced who the students of the month were and I was the student of the month for January! Fernando got it for February, which is so awesome for him. Since we were students of the month, we got free vouchers to take our Power Point certification exams. How freaking awesome is that?? I’m so nervous and excited! It was such great news. I had a fantastic day and that just added the cherry on top. I love Mrs. C-R

When I got home I downloaded some music to my Flash Drive (Mario bought this really cool CD player for the car that has a USB port! I just insert my 1 GB Drive into the radio and it plays my music!), then Mario, Jaylen and I went to pick up Mario’s check. He made the biggest check out of all the ones he’s made while working there. I’m so proud of my love. He’s a great worker :).
We picked Eenan up from school, rescheduled his follow-up appointment for an earlier time (he’s had the worst cough–all is well now, though), then we went to watch Doogal which Mario hated. He fell asleep. I thought it was cute, but it really was a kid’s cartoon. I didn’t really get into it much. The characters kinda creeped me out, except for Doogal himself.
After that we went to Wal-Mart to get all the pet food, a mop (since my Vileda I had for 3 years finally broke apart–I refuse to use a regular mop), some DS games we promised the boys, and some trusty Swiffer Dust Wipes. Those are my new favorite cleaning product. A big plus is the extender thing…I don’t even have to get off the couch to dust!
And now I’m here, with a weird sore throat (I feel like I have a popcorn kernel stuck in there) and disappointed at the mushy strawberries I was hoping to eat. I could have some chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream but I’m too tired to fight with the brick-hard ice cream. That could possibly be the best ending to a pretty cool day, though.
