Summary of the past 20 days

Okay so I went to Supanova towards the end of the holidays and it was different from what I had expected. It was mainly...actually scratch that...all about manga and anime and just a tad on DC/marvel comics. And what I had expected was half of what was there plus half of movies/tv shows. But I was WRONG! D:
But the highlights were:
+ we walked around and Irene decided to watch some of the events happening at the seminar rooms. We watched the Anime Game Show which was hilarious and I'll definitely watched that again.
+ People in cosplay.Saw a guy in an Alien suit that was SOOO real. Saw a couple Na'vis, Umbrella Corp., lots of Naruto and Final Fantasy characters, Star Wars of course, robot from Doctor Who, Beauty and the Beast, DragonballZ, Sailor Moon and heaps and heaps but I can't really remember now.
+ The Cosplay Competition

Verdict: Will go again next year...but will also learn more about manga and anime before then.

School started (NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!) and we had cross country on the first week.
I came 1st :)
had district cross country and came 19th out of 50 :P Pretty good considering I cbf running and walked half of it.
Got heaps of assignments coming up so probably won't hear from me for a while.

Work: I've started doing kitchenhand because my duty manager saw that I was fairly interested in putting chips into the cartons so she got me into it. :S At first it was fun but now I wish I wasn't doing it cos of all the hard work! Cleaning, preparing,constantly checking there's stock, more cleaning and keeping up with orders and more cleaning! During my shift the other day (thursday, late night), it was rush hour (dinner time) so we were really busy and my boss decided to clean the floor. Who the hell cleans during dinner! So then he got me to help him so I spend most of the shift scooping water from the floor and the floor was literally flooded! So I scooped and scooped and then sweeped all the debris and mope everything but water kept appearing out of nowhere! By the end I was so exhausted and I still had to do kitchen closing since I'm a kitchenhand. BLEH!
But since I'm in it now might as well suck it up and do the work. And I'll have to do kitchenhand anyways cos of my traineeship. So soon I'll be multi-skilled :D

Last night, I went to Roller Derby again! This time it's Licorice Short Shorts vs. Golden Roughs. And both are SSRG teams. I rooted for the Short Shorts cos the team looks more organised and sharp. However, boths teams have my fav rollers. There were more falls in this game then the other which it better and funnier! In the end the Short Shorts won by around 100 and the score was 74-178! The players skates around high-fiving the crowd after the game and I got a high five from my fav skater from the Short Shorts, #12 Rose Ruins! And before when we enter the arena, they gave us a program for th engiht and inside there's a piece of paper where you can vote for your fav player from the two teams. I voted for LSS-Rose Ruins and GR-#14 Christy Demons! Afterwards, I went to the merchandise stands and got another bandana, this time a black one so I can support the LSS and I also got my ticket for the next game which is on 5th June!
Can't wait! :D

Monday's entry:

Today at work, this guy bought something from me and he came back a while later saying he gave me $50 and I only gave me like $5 change when he bought something for around $10. My first instinct was WTF?! So I check my register and saw that he gave me a $20 not $50. He then went away and came back with this chick with him. The chick insisted that they gave me $50 and they want the rest of their change back. Ok, tbh, by now I was panicking that maybe I did pressed the wrong button on the screen and gave the wrong change but the more I think about it the more bogus it all sounded. My manager then counted my till to check and it turns out that they didn't give us $50 and they were trying to rip us off!! AND THAT MADE ME REALLY PISSED!!! >:( So because my till was up $6 my manager gave it to them. :S Later on, we saw the same chick at another shop obviously argueing that they've been given the wrong change as well! We than had a little discussion amongst us and we agreed we did the right thing and didn't let them rip us off. But I was still pretty pissed and wanted to punch those people in the face >.< *sigh*

Today' entry:
Yesterday, I went to watch How to Train Your Dragon 3D at Garbo with friends. It was a pretty practical and touching movie and I thought it was great even though I missed the first 5 minutes of it. Normally I'm not a fan of animated films at all but I have to say this one's an exception :)And the dragon was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE! So, How to train Your Dragon, 4.25/5 stars :) Half star off cos i didn't see the start but that's my fault not the movie's and .25 star off cos his dad annoyed me XD

Today, I went to watch Clash of the Titans 3D. One of the best movies this holiday I have to say! The movie's based on ancient greek and it's mythology and it's about the battle between the gods and humans. BATTLE? GODS? GREEK MYTHOLOGY? OH MY GOD AWESOME OR WHAT!!!? :P Favourite scenes included the killing of the giant scorpians, when the gods were having a discussion, the fight with the snake lady, when the kraken was revealed it was grand, and several others. I was so glad I watched it and I give it a 4.75/5 stars because there was this character I hate and some retarded moments but overall, twas good! :D Go wath it now! :D
