My life, in words

So long!

TJ — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 03:23:22 +0000

I haven’t made an update in so long. So much has changed. Mike is gone, I met Gerard, school, iPhone 4S… So so much. If I wasn’t typing on my phone I’d get more into it. I’ll update you soon journal!

iPad 2!!

TJ — Sun, 13 Mar 2011 04:33:20 +0000

So I haven’t written here in awhile. Yesterday Mike, Robyn and I waited in line at Best Buy to get the iPad 2!! I’m writing this aritcal from it. Of course I wanted the 64gb AT&T version but we got there late and there was a long line. The Verizon one came around but Mike had to go closer to the front of the lime to get the last ticket for one. :) thanks babe. ;)

Today was Nya’s birthday party at the beach. It was fun.

So I no longer work at Bank of America. I had to quit to finish my school up at Florida Tech. I’m stressing out about it, but I’ll figure it out. I always do. :) I miss my job though. I got a promotion last September to a SSS which is a seller. I enjoyed it. But, ya gotta do what you gotta do.

A year has gone

TJ — Sun, 21 Nov 2010 21:35:42 +0000

So it’s been almost a year since my previous update. It’s THANKSGIVING this upcoming Thursday. It’s crazy how time will fly by. I have a lot to talk about, but right now I don’t have the time, so I’ll recap a few things.

I turned 22 last February. I went from being a teller at Bank of America to a Sales & Service Specialist. I bought a brand new, 2009 Honda CBR-ABS 600 motorcycle. I am taking a semester off school again to work full time and get some stuff paid off. I want to more than ever get back into school though and finish before I screw my self over. I still haven’t even designed a website for my self yet.

I need to get my act together. I need to accomplish some things that I will get into later. Until then, Love you!

Love you!

Melbourne Beach, and cold weather

TJ — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 01:14:02 +0000

This week I started working at my new branch in Melbourne Beach. Monday was a Holiday, which I got paid for :), and Tuesday was my first real day of working. There are some pros and cons. The people are really nice, so thats a plus. —- My french bread pizza just got out of the oven so I’m going to eat it and then continue this like it never happened. —- Okay back, that was good. :P We just turned on Smallville so now I’m distracted. Quick overview: Work was good, but very slow. I’ll talk about it later!! After Smallville.

Edit: Okay, so now that Smallville is over I’ll go into a little more detail about work. Like I already said, my co-workers are all very nice, but the branch it self is very slow. There was barely any customers on Friday, which is normally one of the busiest days. It just makes the day very slow, and very boring. I can’t really complain though, since I have a job, and I get paid well. What I like about Melb Beach vs IHB is the electronic key locks instead of turn-style. Today I worked over at IHB. It was pretty busy today, which was good because it made the work day go fast and I enjoy helping customers. I’m going to continue to work at both branches. I’m going to work at Melb Beach 20 hours a week, and then every Saturday over at IHB. That way I get about 5 extra hours a week, so 10 a paycheck, which is significant.

So, the best thing that happened today is the weather! For the first time since probably January the temperature is cold!! Right now we have our windows and the sliding glass door open. It is such a NICE feeling. I woke up this morning, walked outside to go to my car for work, and it felt so good out. Every customer that came into the bank had something to say about it. It’s been 90F plus everyday, and its like 54F right now so it’s wonderful. I really hope it lasts. You know Florida, the weather is all over the place. It could be over 100 tomorrow.

So besides the weather and work, not much else is new. Nothing other than the fact that it’s almost November and the year is pretty much almost over — crazy!

Tired, goodnight

TJ — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 05:32:04 +0000

Just a quick post real fast. I’m not happy with my wordpress theme. I changed it, but I’m going to spend some time on it one of these days and pick one I really like. I then want to customize the page a little to be more personal.

Today (well, yesterday now) I worked. Tuesday I start my first day at the new branch, which I’m excited for, because I need hours, but not excited for, because it’s work. — I also need to read more of my php books, I’m slacking.. and to finish off, I’m really tired and going to bed. Goodnight!

Got the job!!

TJ — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 00:31:22 +0000

I’ve been meaning to update for a week now. Last Friday I got called up and was offered the new position at Bank of America. The Melbourne Beach branch. They told me it took so long to get back (a week) because it had to be on the listing for one week. She also told me the manager loved me in the interview. So I start there this Tuesday!! I actually work tomorrow at IHB, but only until the end of October. There’s a few things I’ve been meaning to talk about but right now I can’t remember. I’m kind of in a bad mood because my car insurance got charged twice, and my account doesn’t have any money in it anymore, so it sucks. Right now I’m struggling with money, it’s crappy!! As soon as I’ve been working for a month, money shouldn’t be an issue.

One book, no call, and autozone

TJ — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 21:02:32 +0000

So I got one of my PHP books in the mail, the one from O’Riley, so it wasn’t the one I wanted first. I did start to read it though, and so far it’s pretty interesting. I’m still waiting for my other book. In other news, on Monday, after I got new tires, I went to AutoZone and bought R134 to try to make my A/C work again. It turns out my pressure in my A/C is already maxed out, so it isn’t the R134 that’s the problem, it’s something else. I feel like my A/C has worked this past 2 years, but my hot/cold toggle is messed up and its turned to warm. I tried to return it today, UNUSED but I couldn’t find my receipt so they only gave me store credit. :( My dad said I can mail it to him and he’ll give me $30.00 for it since he goes there all the time. It was like $28 dollars and some change.

Still haven’t heard about the job. So I’m still PRAYING I get it. Tomorrow is the first, which means rent is due, and I have $0.00. I have not even a dollar to pay towards rent. :( Its a sad truth.

Since Mike’s birthday was on Monday, I went and bought him Shoes today (credit card). He picked them out, so it made me happy to see him happy. I love my baby.

Things that need to happen: 1) Call about the job, 2) Other PHP book come in, 3) win the lotto so I don’t need 1 or 2. lol

Mikes Birthday, books MIA

TJ — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 06:45:31 +0000

So today was Mike’s 21′st Birthday. It was a pretty good day overall, I thought. He went to class at 9:25, I slept in til maybe 9:40. He came over after class, around ten, and stayed for about an hour or less. He went home to see his Grandma, who hired some guy to clean his headlights and make them nice and shiny — which he did, they look very nice. During that time, I spent about 3 hours reading and watching YouTube videos about the ACORN scandal that has hit the interwebs. Crazy stuff if you ask me. More on that another time. So after I got done with that, which literally consumed me in front of the computer for hours, I called Mike and told him to come back over. While I was reading my ACORN news, Gattos Tires called me and told me my two Nitto Neo Gen performance tires came in ($150 each), and I could drop my car off anytime. So when Mike arrived, I dropped my car off and he gave me a ride home. My car got done a few hours later, and it looks smokin’! Two brand new tires in the front, and two almost new tires in the back, so I’m pretty stoked about the tire situation. They are so gosh darn expensive. I really want to buy new suspension and springs, but that’s if I get this new job. My car would ride so smooth if I did that. My rotors are new, and performance, so I would have the whole package.

So Mike and I ate dinner at his house with his family. His brother, Rickie, his mom, and dad. They made home made stir fry, and it was the best damn stir fry I’ve had. I love stir fry so much actually, it tastes so good. So I talked to Mikes mom about bank stuff for a little while, lol, Mike seemed bored, smoked a cig outside. We left his house around 8ish, and met up with Robyn at my house to hang out. Us three hung out for a bit, and then decided to go to Meg o Mallys to get some drinks since Mike turned 21. (duh, why wouldn’t we?). I just got a Bud Light Lime, I wasn’t in the mood to drink, and I bought Robyn one too. Mike ordered a Carmel Apple Martini (girls drink, love it!) and said he enjoyed it. I tried it — yuck! After that, Robyn went her separate way, presumably to her boyfriends house, and we came back to mine. We spent a little more time together, and he went home. He has class tomorrow at 8am. But I do miss him, he is the love of my life. So here is to you Michael, Happy 21st Birthday!

Around 12:30 Dustin came online and I talked to him and went to his house and hung out for like 2 hours. We played some video games, listened to some music, had a good time. We played TFC, and Battlefield 1943. Then I drove home, brushed my teeth, and here I am. I’m actually getting tired after writing this, so I’m going to call it a night.

Oh my gosh! I just read my post TITLE!! My BOOKS!! I ordered the PHP books I talked about in my last blog over a week ago, and I have yet to receive them. I wouldn’t be so worried if it wasn’t for the fact I never got a shipping email. I’m giving it the benefit of the doubt, and if they don’t arrive by Friday I’m going to be pissed off. I hate ordering stuff online and not having the satisfaction of having it right away. I was previewing it at Barnes and Noble, and I could of had it right there!! If only it wasn’t 30 dollars extra. Anyway, goodnight!
