fall's here, the weather's getting cooler, i'm so excited, i get to bust out my really nice jacket i bought in france! tee's gone to tanzania to save orphans, so good luck to her and her mission, and we'll see her in 3 months, whew, that means i don't have to go to oshawa any time soon. liz and i went to visit her sunday evening before she left, but we got lost because we went to the address for grandview SOUTH and not grandview NORTH. we definitely got to see alot more of the shwa then we wanted to! the good thing out of that visitation was seeing deans, ray and ana. sometimes it's just good to see old friends. ;p

yay to staying in pr. i definitely hit the jackpot with that. a great teacher, a
great course, a great group...what more could i want? after class today, i met up with alicia and we went to the papaya hut for smoothies. it's been awhile since i've been in that area...i kind of want my usual at not just noodles. hm, i'll think of that next time. the unfortunate thing is now i cannot get downtown any earlier then 6pm. I GOT A JOB! yay. no celebrating yet, i'd like to see how long i want to stay, for 2 weeks or 4 months? it really depends on what my mission is. i'll keep you all posted on that.

i don't even know how to start this rant post, so i'm just going to dive in...

i simply hate people who take advantage of nice people. when i see it happen to people who are close friends of mine, i will rip them apart because i can't stand my friends being taken advantage of. of course, when it comes to me, i just let it go. it totally sucks, but i hate being the nice person, and no matter how much i hate it as i see it happening to me, i don't say anything because that's just the way i am.

what am i referring to? i went to a friend's party last week and a girl there found out that i did piano accompanying and she asked me to accompany her for an hour for $20 for her audition tomorrow. i said of course. we met up yesterday and today, and spent over an hour with her, even taking her home when hart house kicked us out because we're supposedly not allowed to "sing" with the piano, it's just for listeners enjoyment. and did she give me any money? nope. nada. and as she was leaving, i couldn't even bring myself to say anything. i don't know HOW to ask for money.

she's not the first person who's done this to me. i've had a recent job where i did the job, i'm STILL waiting for the money, i don't even know HOW MUCH i'm being paid. i hate this so much. how do you discuss money when you're applying for jobs? it's my biggest pet peeve. the only thing i can do, is learn not to deal with that person again. i lose out.

grr, i'm so upset right now...
