i just got back from the ortho.. geez, was never too sure about that guy from the start and now i have good reason to dislike him

so one day, i was being a good child and wearing my retainer as usual, and then i get hungry, so when i eat i put the retainer in a napkin. i completely forget about it and when im cleaning up, i throw that napkin into the trash compactor-which gets turned on. then like an hour later, im looking for the retainer and realize its misfortune (sorry retainer) and when it came out the top piece was broken in two, and the bottom piece was bent-(The metal part) so of course i couldnt wear it.

and today was my appointment and i showed him my broekn retainer and he says "why arent you wearing it?!?" and im like.. "umm.. its broken.. it doesnt fit into my mouth" so then he tries putting the deformed bottom piece in anyway and it doesnt fit, .. of course it doesnt! the metal part is bended almost backwrds!!! and then he gets angry and says that the reason it doesnt fit is not becuase its deformed but cuz i dont wear it, so my teeth have shifted.. and in my head im like HELLO!!DONT YOU SEE THE DEFORMATION ON THAT THING?!? .. but instead i said "no, its bent from the compactor, i do wear it" and then he snaps! he yells at me! and accused me of lying! --well maybe i dont wear it ALL the time like i should, but i did wear it at night and it DID fit, until its accident, and it was SO OBVIOUSLY deformed.. i wondered if we were seeing the same thing

then he pits the retainer back in its box and and throws it at my lap, saying "you can keep it, i hope you enjoy your souvenir" then he asks me who i came with so he could speak with my parents-good thing i came alone. so then he set me up for another appointment to get imprints again and told me that each piece would cost $200 each.. how the heck is are two little pieces of plastic $400?!? thats crazy.. and hes a crazy crazy man.. rawr!

just got home and im kinda tired, its almost 12 and theres this stack of papers my mom wants me to type for her by tomorrow morning, ah well.. nothing i cant handle

went to channel islands harbor and strand beach to get my pictures for my class. i picked this one thing that looked like a run-down boat harbor and this really neat tree. then we went to the park and there were no kids there =) so i took pics of the playground thing and got some nice angles. i doubt the pics will turn out very nice since it was really cloudy today. well, at least now i only have to find one more object.. hmm

i spent my last $4 at in n out, well actually, it was money i found in my moms car - but it was worth it, the weather made me feel really tired and hungry.

cinder block watched american pie for the first time. that movie is quite vile.. but it has its funny moments, and is semi-sweet in the end.. well its more of a twisted kind of sweet. i wouldnt recommend that movie to most people.

oh at fuwa market i saw thai tea and milk tea powder! it was so awesome cuz i look for it at every asian store i go to and its never there. i never expected to find milk tea powder either, i didnt even kno sucha thing existed. i didnt get to tho. boo!, i shoulda but i had no money with me and i already bought a drink. ill be back tho.. fo sho

i felt bad today cuz i didnt tell jaby i was going to oxnard and she went to camarillo with her mom. sorry jbird! ah, we missed her today too.! hehe.. alright, i better get started on the papers..

of course i cant forget all the times im with my friends. esp after school trips with vicious v, and this whole summer with them too.. we have this inside joke that were all related, with cindy being the eldest, then me, then wendi and finally jaby. but in reality they are really like family. and i <3 them.

when i first came here, i was sad that i was leaving florida behind. i was scared that i couldnt be happy here. that id feel lonely, like a prisoner, uncomfortable. And then i hoped, and prayed that things would be ok, that I'd make friends i like (not friends you just have you so have someone to eat with at lunch) and that i could really adjust here. and now 3 years here in cali and theres nothing i regret. just like when i hated the thought of moving to fletcher middle, i hated the thought of moving to cali. but i was wrong, i loved fletcher, and now i love cali. so everything that happens really does happen for a reason, and i cant complain. there've been lil things that get me down. but overall, when i take a step back, im really happy with my life, the people ive encountered and have trusted and cared about. each person (most) just have their own qualities that i could learn from. and altho people come and go in our lives, they never really leave us forever, they change us and make our world.

today was cool.. after the the whole camera thing, we went to the park w/ cinder and then to eat, Foster's at south oxnard is very scary.. =/ and then we went to target for an hour.. that store is really neat.

and lets see.. my first test tomorrow, its 11pm and i havent studied yet.. geez, its starting.

on a happier note, i skipped my afternoon classes on wednesday (yesterday) to go to a group interview at cpk. i got really nervous when i saw how many people showed up, about 10. but frank, the manager guy, gave us some tips. like he said group interviews help them see who is willing to speak up and see how people interact. anyhow, i think i spoke like 3-4 times, and i interrupted someone.. oops.. but yeah. he said "if you dont get a call by tomorrow night, we werent meant for each other" AH! so that scared me. haha, i wasnt expecting him to call at all, but he did! yay!! he left a message, so i called back and he said he knows i dont have experience but i had a "really nice group interview" so he set me up for an individual interview w/ some other other gal.. oh i hope this works out.. the reason i wanted to work that there in the first place was cuz i wanted to wear a tie.. haha

anyhow.. this song that annabee put on the cd.. "wait for me" is soo my jam .. =) "wait for me as a wait for you.." *sigh..man its just so "sssassy"!

by the way.. im OVER iT!
