Butterflies Have Invaded

My mom's on holiday this week. Sick of seeing me jobless, she followed me job hunting. It was the strangest thing...



I dropped a few resumes in Richmond. All of a sudden while visiting Costco, my mom suddenly talked to the guy at the door and asked where to drop resumes and made me drop one there. Knowing there's no chance to work in such place, I didn't really care too much... That is, until they FRIGGIN CALLED ME >_>;; Costco's SO not my place.. -_-;;



I never finished filling out the ones for The Bay... maybe I won't need to... I hope I won't. No chance there too, I would think. Yeah, I'm pessimistic about big companies. Which is why Costco's such a SHOCKER.



So, changing winds... Fireworks last Saturday! It was Sweden! I went down with Jo and her relative late afternoon. Sty treated me to subway and slurpee for dinner XD... well more like she "owed" me money, or so she claims, though I have no memory of the incident anymore. The fireworks were good.. yes, just 'good' (that's because.... details later). Got a ride from Eddie afterwards, yey, thx Ed.



Fireworks again Wednesday! This time, Spain! We (Jo, Sty and Ed) met at Langara. Sty arrived late. We got Downtown and decided to park at Stanley Park. We arrived at 1... the skies were still rather cloudy then so the beach was EMPTY and our LOG was EMPTY! That is until old wrinkly lifeguard man with old wrinkly "nice ladies" wanted a bit of our log and runs off after leaving their tarp. Keh. And so it begins to rain and we huddle together under our umbrellas on the beach. We try and play Crazy 8's and I win surprisingly, even though I hate the game. Eventually the rain stops and Moni gets here. Then we build Cradish Island. Gar gets here and we play MORE cards. Then Rudy comes. And even MORE cards. The sky keeps its gloomy look throughout the rest of the day/night as we wonder if it'll rain or not but it can't make up its mind. Luckily it didn't after all. Boom and giant group of other people come. Saboo and Nina come a lot later. Lack of SGers. All the beach space we save up gets wasted. Then THE COOLEST FIREWORKS DISPLAY EVAR! (imho) 'Cept the blinding pop-pop fireworks that hurt everyone's eyes.... and my hand kept shaking so I couldn't take any good pictures. Yey so Spain, I hope they win, even though I won't be able to make it for the Finale. Oh, Eddie drives us home again. Go Eddie!



So I got an interview tomorrow.... which explains the title. I'm such a wuss. (what a henachoko I am...)



Then I'll be gone for the weekend. Off to Abbosford for a retreat. Gotta live through tomorrow morning first.



Can't... sit... still... >_>



Can I even sleep......?
