I Can't Think of a Title Right Now

For Christmas day I didn't get very much, just a $20 Dymocks giftcard courtesy of Mike and Matt New, a box of Celebrations chocolates with $250 hidden in it (yay, money!) and a box of Bundaberg ginger beer from my older sibling. Like I said before, it isn't much, but it's the thought of the whole gift-giving thing that counts. Yesterday I went with the rest of my family to see the film version of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe which I think is much better than Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, although being the bookworm that I am, I spotted a few differences in the movie (I said a few), but whoever directed it kept true to the book, which is always good (unlike, ahem, say Battlefield Earth). I'm thinking of going to Perth tomorrow and hoping that the "other" twins can come with us kicking and screaming. Before I forget, I ended up driving a new car today for my driving lesson; a cross between a car and a four wheel drive which the instructor was worried of getting marks or scratches on it because I happened to be at the wheel at the time :)

'Tis the Season to be Excited! (And Eating Lots!)

I've brought the presents for both of the twins with my recent pay last Wednesday (I think it was Wednesday anyway) and I'm not even going to tell what I brought them for the sake of leaving them both in suspense. That leaves me to wonder what my deranged sibling and the twins got for me for my Christmas present. Too bad we didn't get the pets costumed into Santa hats or reindeer antlers, because that would be both amusing and cute to behold. It turns out that I'll be working again the day after tomorrow (Boxing Day) and I'm also guessing that people are still after some cooked chickens at Red Rooster (because I distinctly remembering being questioned about the availability of chickens for the coming Christmas). Can't wait for Christmas tomorrow, yipeee! For presents and the food!

Red Rooster Episode IV: The Attack of Payday

I've finally got the guts to ask about my payday at Red Rooster today during the near-end of my shift (12:00 am - 5:00 pm changed to 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm). It happens that:

1. I should have asked earlier
2. I should have gotten my pay a long, long time ago

The manager (who looks like a would-be member of SOAD if you know what I mean) tells me that he'll get the pay-slips done tomorrow for the employees who are getting payed (that of course includes me) and if I don't get the pay by Tuesday or Wednesday (because I'm with Westpac) I should call him if anything goes wrong (i.e; I didn't happen to get my pay). I'm getting payed sometime soon, which is good because I still haven't gotten any of my close friends' christmas presents yet.

Red Rooster Episode III: The Return of the Trainee Red Roosterer

This is my third shift in Red Rooster kelmscott. And guess what? I managed to screw up during my duties as both cashier and the drive-thru, *snaps fingers* damn it! I mucked up at the cashier mostly because of my counting (sometimes I count the money too fast and rush it) and also my "button-pressing" at the meal-screen (if you get what I mean, because I have a tendency to rush that too). I did quite a few drive-thru orders myself, except when I was waiting for one of the employees to finish up on the order and the guy, being the possibly impatient little retard that he is, drove off leaving us with a no-sale drive-thru order and two employees gaining (I think) a "free" meal. During one clean-up operation and a few drive-thru orders later, a hose decided to have one of it's occasional split-personality episodes, all I heard was, "Oh, shit!" or something along those lines. I decided to do a victory dance to celebrate my "victory" in the "mastering" of the drive-thru orders. I'm still a little paranoid about that ticking bomb sound near the cash-register though...

Dizziness Ahoy @ Adventure World

Yup, that's right. The third trip to Adventure World was originally an Austals Employee and their whole entire family trip, but who cares? As long as you get the majority of the stuff there for free for the whole night, it's all okay. Everything was going great that night until we hear from a certain member of the family that the "Uncle and Aunt that likes us to visit, but never visits us in return and likes to move further away a lot" came along to AW for the hell of it and also to my extreme annoyance, to say "Hi, how are you going?". The conversation between myself, my sister and my uncle was of course on the lukewarm but turning to cold side of things. I don't get it why the relatives make a point of dragging us their place even though they themselves won't visit us. Well, if it was my real nanna, (to Cutie Monkette, you know which one I am pointing out, don't you?) who happens to live at the other side of Terra Australis who actually visits us. Then, I would get it. My recent craving for cotton candy (or fairy floss, which is another word for this stuff) got from worse to quieted, which was nice until my overenthusiastic and somewhat deranged older sibling dragged me to the following rides; The Rampage (which I think is better than the Powersurge and that time would be my second then third time), the powersurge (you've already heard my opinion on this) and then for cotton candy and some ice cream, which we were only provided two tickets to get two free ice creams which kinda sucked. At the end of the night, I received a whopping headache which is not good to have when are trying to sleep, but at least my "inner candy floss monster" was quietened. I'll spew out more life-experience drabble later.

Mmmm... cheez...

I hope this works, damn it! But then it might encourage more hoons... ah, well.

Which Schwarz Character Are You?

I did this when I was bored.

You're Crawford! Cool and calculating, you have a problem with authority - that is, any authority that isn't yours. There's a sense of humour in there, though it can be somewhat nasty, and one hell of a strong personality. Whatever you do, you mean to reach the top, and you'll take the shortest route to get there. You keep your friends close and your enemies in body bags.

Doll Digga Buzz Buzz Zigetty Zag

The Graduation Ball was so awesome!! We got to Caversham House by limo after Brenton got back from Gosnells because he left behind both his and his partners' tickets for the ball (just like everyone else who had limos to drive them around). The three course meal we all got was great. I ended up getting half dragged-half carried to the dance floor (and it's shocking, because my partner and I don't dance) but I actually had fun dancing with my partner and everyone else that I know. Halfway through Brad Towton grabbed me and lifted me up. He danced with me once and I hear from a certain someone that he danced with every girl he knew except his own date. Brenton got some information from someone that the teachers were being served alcohol! We danced again with friends and strangers that night and finished it all off with the classic Conga Line which was confusing because there was two or three separate congas joining into one and during the whole think I was screaming above the din "Where the fuck are we going!?" We ended up getting the separate congas to merge together somehow (by what means I don't know). It turns out that Adam Slender was behind me and that the conga itself was going at different speeds! We were all exhausted as we jumped in the limo heading for home, but without saying farewell to everyone we know. We can all hope that one day, our paths will cross once again.

The Red Rooster Experience

Yesterday was my first day in working with Red Rooster in Kelmscott. They ordered in a uniform for me (well, it was the shirt and the hat. The black pants was my own). The employees showed me around the store where everything was and whatnot when it turns out I had to learn to work the till! The till for me was what made the job tricky because customers ask for a certain combination when it comes to what they order and if they want something out of their meal (eg: no peas or gravy) and because I was beginning to learn all of it and trying to cram everything I've learnt in my head, I was rushing and entering my "inner panic" mode! The employees and the manager told me not to rush and panic. I dealt with a few customers that night, even though I did have other duties to attend to like stocking things up (you have to be careful when you enter the big fridge), cleaning places and sweeping. I should be lucky that the customers when easy on me because I had a Trainee badge on me. Everyone I've worked with was nice to me, including the manager and they all said to me that learning the till and everything else takes time and practice. The Red Rooster Experience was "scary and confusing" as I've put it to both my Dad and the manager despite the amused yet bewildered look o the manager's face and my Dad's laughter at my response to the question, "So, what do you think of it?"
