NO.

THERE ARE ONLY TWELVE SCHOOL DAYS LEFT IN THE SEMESTER.

I'LL MISS MY GRAPHICS FAMILY SO MUCH. SOB SOB SOB



Clothing Retail.

I'd say about 50-80% of teenagers my age have a part-time job.

My part time job just so happens to be cashier. In the past, I've worked at a computer store and a retail store.
My last job was Melanie Lyne, a women's clothing retailer. At the job interview, it looked like the most glamourous thing ever. The clothes at ML ranged from $60-300 a piece so it was a pretty classy place. Owned by the Laura Corporation, it was also Canadian so I thought, why not. Despite the retail warnings from everyone I encountered, I went for it. I ended up working at Melanie Lyne for about six months before I quit.

I wasn't getting enough hours and as a cashier, I was being sorely under-appreciated. I'm the kind of person who sort of thrives on praise. The thing is, I don't just expect praise, I do things to earn it. As a cashier at Melanie Lyne, I was expected to:

• Help customers
• Greet customers
• Make sure no one stole anything (which was not the responsibility of the Sales Associates, but only the cashiers
• Check on fitting rooms
• Start fitting rooms
• Ring people through cash
• Clean THE ENTIRE STORE. 
• MOP THE ENTIRE STORE
• SWEEP THE ENTIRE STORE
• Take care of all the documents

There's more but I won't bore you.

The demographic that shops at Melanie Lyne is very diverse. I've seen women ages 19-90 come in wanting to buy things. Don't get me wrong, they had beautiful merchandise but the women who shopped there were bordering intolerable. 

Just because you spend a lot of money somewhere doesn't give you the right to treat the employees like crap.

I don't care if you spent a thousand dollars on your last purchase here. You can't buy your right to yell at an employee. 

Another thing is....

IF YOU UNFOLD SOMETHING AND YOU DON'T WANT TO BUY IT, FOLD IT BACK NICELY. MAKE IT AS PRETTY AS IT WAS. BECAUSE STORE EMPLOYEES ARE NOT YOUR MOTHERS.

Not only that, but every single week.

And I mean EVERY week, without fail, they'd get the marketing woman to come in to change everything around. Nothing was in the same place it was the week before. Which made my job even harder because I didn't know where any of the merchandise was anymore!

I'm so glad I'm out of there....

Stay tuned for a post about my current job. 

P.S. Sorry for the raging. 

Perfection.

So...my latest thing is Korean pop music. I got into it...maybe three months ago? Around September. It all started when my best friend Tiffany showed me a Ke$ha song. (Don't even get me started on Ke$ha.)
It was called Run Devil Run and when I researched the song, I found that the YouTuber, Itskingsleybitch did a rant on the song. In this video, he mentioned that there was a Korean version of the song by a band called SNSD (Girls Generation) and I was intrigued. At the time, I had a lot of time on my hands so I decided to research it. I looked up the song and I found that it was pretty good. I liked the style and the language sounded beautiful.

Soon after that, I got really into SNSD's music. After that, I found Super Junior, a thirteen piece boy band filled with amazing singers. Then SHINee. Then MBLAQ. Then Big Bang. Then TRAX.

And the fandom, the music, the boys, the dancing, the videos...just everything is awesome.

One day, I will go to (South) Korea. And it shall be grand.

Your Life is Your Business.

In my life, I have encountered many types of people. Almost every kind, actually.
But never this bad. Some people just need to learn to mind their own businesses. (I am aware that I sounded like a ten year old there). But it's true. Your life is your business and unless somebody asks for your input or your opinion, I feel that there is no need to state something rude about someone's personal life.

I've seen it happen time and time again and it has happened to me as well.

Where is the line between freedom of speech and entitlement to opinions and being kind?

Just Take The Damn Compliment

There is not enough kindness in the world. More people need to accept compliments graciously. 

I've seen way too many people this week accept compliments (or turn them down, rather) with a slight roll of the eyes and a slow "thaaaaanks?" 

Or a condescending "thanks".

To those people, I say the following:

What the hell is wrong with you?

It's people like that who make good people hesitate to give another compliment to someone.

To some people, a brief "I like your outfit" or "you look nice today" can really improve their day. Sometimes, it'll even make their day. So why do people keep rejecting and reacting to compliments in such a rude, condescending way? 

I'll never know. But I hate it. 

Reading off a Whiteboard.

What does freedom mean to me?

To me, freedom is the ability to do what you want.

Say what you want.

Believe in what you want.

No matter what.
