Worked for my 3rd day today. (Third Day? hehe, they’re new album comes out in November, mark your calendars!) The first day I was put in cashering, 2nd was customer service, and today I did all recieving (where they get all the packages, and products, and sticker them and put them out). Not really sure which one I like best….probably customer service, or cashering. Each one of the days I got to see less and less customers, which I guess wasn’t that great, hah. But work so far seems pretty cool. I enjoy it a lot and the people who work there are great! Fun people, and we joke around with each other a lot, but don’t put one another down, just have fun with each other. =) Good enviroment definately!

Hrm, so for my birthday today, we’re gonna go out to Red Robins a little later. Not sure how later that is. Supposedly my sweetheart, Lisa, is coming down, but I’m not sure if she really is, cuz they only have one car!! Well, I will really enjoy it if she does, hehe, even though she did just come out with my family to a birthday dinner for me. Oh, I forgot to talk about that too. But anyways, the list for tonight is Lisa, Derek, Anh, Erica, and Ali. Maybe some other people I’m unaware of as well. =P The more the merrier right?

Hey there, I got hired for Berean today. Cool stuff. =) I go in for Orientation tommorrow morning. Wheeeeee! Praise Jesus!

Well off I go for an interview with Berean Christian Bookstores. I applied last Thursday, and wow, what a quick time for them to have me come in already. Awesome stuff.
Lisa drove down yesterday to drop off some dress clothes for me, isn’t she sweet? She brought buy some pants, a shirt, and my shoes (hah, she bought 2/3rds of those!). I decided this morning that the khaki’s looked better with this gunmetal black shirt of mine, so I’m wearing those. I should have got some lighter color shirt…this kinda dark grey thing doesn’t work too well, or well, I guess I’ll impress them much. Wish I had an iron too, hahaha. oh well.

current mood: ecstatic

Yesterday we had an old SJSU student, Jason Ma, as our speaker. He’s featured weekly on The Bridge’s talk radio show called SOUL on Sunday Mornings. He speaks mostly to high school students, but spoke really well and held attention great to us college students. He spoke of God the Father, and delivered a very good message about the misconceptions we have about God as our Father. Anyways, very good message, and hopefully we’ll have Jason around sometime again soon. Good speaker. =)

Well doing a semi-montly update (well like a bi-weekly I guess, that means once every two weeks). We had a beach bash on Saturday with AACF. It was over at Seabright beach in Santa Cruz. Had some fun, played some beach volleyball, ate some GRUBBIN’ food, did some worship. About 15 people were there, including Lisa, who I brought along for the fun. The day was pretty good, except when I sprained my index finger on my left hand, and when Lisa forgot her purse in one of the drivers cars.

Well I came back from SF today, a short trip to drop off Lisa’s purse. She forgot it in Eric’s car on saturday, and we tried to call Eric on Saturday, but he didn’t answer (his phone was off), so he dropped it off on sunday, and I went up today to drop it off. We hung out for a lil bit, ate at Marie Calendars (where they didn’t have any potpies!!! grrr!! blah), and shopped at Meryven’s for a present for Tiff, and a replacement thingy for Evelyn. That’s about it for this short couple of days. =)

BBQ went well. There was tons of food. Michelle and Ryan made this cool fruit salad and used the watermelon shell as a bowl! it was so cool, till Wade broke it. Ahhh well. The main food was hambergers and hotdogs, and some kaluhua (dunno if that’s spelled right) bbq pork. The bbq kaluhua pork was a little strong, hah, didn’t burn out well. I also helped a guy named Daniel tune his guitar, cuz he didn’t know how to, hehe. It was just a fun time of hanging out and gearing up for next week’s large group.

CS (counter-strike) 1.3 came out along with the Half-Life patch of 1108. The new HL Patch enabled a radio chat thing, which surprisingly works really, really well. It sounds crisp and clear over the internet with not lag (course I am on a DSL connection, so that could explain somethings). Looks good so far though. =)
