Anyone else figured out how to post a video? I tried doing one yesterday but either the 5-6 minute video was too long or it isn’t working since it kept coming up with a video error thing.

Physics seems to be clicking more this time. I studied ALL last week and had the first exam last Friday.

Got it back on Monday at boom! I got a 90!
Hopefully I can keep this up. We have four test (worst score gets dropped), homework, in-class assignments, and then the final. I think the exams are each 15% (so 45%), homework is 15%, In class homework is 15%, and the final is 25%.. I think.

Saturday morning I got a call from Leah at build-a-bear and she said to come in at 6pm instead of 5pm because we needed to cut hours. I later found out that Allie’s hours had been changed from 3-7pm to 2-7pm, so that angered me. I understand the need to cut hours, but that wasn’t cutting. They took one from me and gave it to Allie. What the heck?
She and Angie ended up leaving at 6:00 anyways because we weren’t super busy, but anyways.

The cut ended up being a good thing because I at 5:58pm, right as I was pulling into the parking lot, I got a call from GNC about my application. The manager asked if I could come in for an interview Tuesday at 9:15am and I said yes. So it all worked out well. (Because otherwise, I’d been working and probably wouldn’t have been able to answer his call.)

This is what I ended up wearing for my interview…

I was pretty nervous, but luckily I didn’t bust my butt in my heels and I think I did really well.
The manager, Mycah, seemed to really like me and I loved how he described their job. He’s more focused on good customer service and making good connections than just making a sell. He doesn’t want the employees to worry about numbers because the sales will come. So basically, be welcoming, ask what brings them in, make sure they know you’d be more than happy to help if they need it, but not bombard them if they’re just looking or they don’t want help.
Some of his questions made me nervous, but I answered well and not to be too cocky, but… I think I got it.
He said he needs to talk to his RDM and then we’d go from there. If I do get it, I’ll be excited to be working more, making more, and learning about the material.

Today I’ve been babysitting my niece, Demi. She’s two months old today.

Cara had to make up one of her missed drill days today, so I watched her all day. She left at 7am, but Demi didn’t wake up until around 8:30am. She was really well behaved.

She ate when she got up, then slept a bunch, and chilled with me while I worked on on-line homework (went from 15% finished to 89.5% finished today!)

She ate again when it was almost 1pm. It was hilarious! She’d be eating and then she’d just fall asleep in the middle of it! Lol, she’d wake up again and continue but not for too long. After like the fifth time she fell asleep, I took the bottle away and just let her sleep.

Trey went into work at 1:30pm, so after that it was just the two of us until Cara got back at 3:30pm. We watched Tarzan and she ended up getting a little fussy, but that was probably because she was tired again. She passed out halfway through Tarzan and slept until her Mom woke her up when she got home. She got a change of clothes and I held her again while Cara ate dinner.

She’s so damn cute! She sleeps a lot but she’s only two-months so I suppose that’s expected lol.

Now I’m just waiting for Trey to get off work because I have to pick him up. His car was doing this weird shake thingy when he would go to stop, so he had it looked at. Something with a cylinder-I think-wasn’t working, so it’s going to be there over night. It’s supposed to be ready in the morning around 9-10am, so that’s good.

Anyways, those were the three points I wanted to talk about and I’m afraid if I don’t stop now this will end up way too long, so until next time, bye!! XP

So I see an option for categories on the right hand side (under format) and thought I’d see if it’s anything like the old pulses. We’ll see.

Webassign (the website that my physics homework is on) is being on finicky. It’s been having technical issues the last couple of days. While everyone in class is freaking out because the chapter three homework is due tomorrow night, I’m relieved because I finished that sometime last week.
On the other hand, I’m trying to study for the exam that is on Friday by working old problems from chapters 1-3 (you can go to the problems and click “practice another version” so you can practice new problems) and it keeps pooping out on me. Grrrr. I guess it’s better than dealing with the stress everyone else is dealing with, but it’s still super annoying.

I feel like I’m getting a better hang of things this time around, but it’s still early. Last year it wasn’t really the homework that I struggled with (well, not as much the homework); my issue was mainly testing. That’s why I’m really trying to study up for this exam on Friday.
Hopefully it gets resolved soon… I go to work in an hour and a half-ish. Then I’ll be going straight to bed since I’m exhausted. I plan to get up early and head to Trey’s probably around 5:30am so we can get some cuddles in before starting the day.

Trey and I got a membership at 10fitness because it’s really close to his house and there’s one (not as close as I thought, but still) fairly close to mine. They had a special yesterday were you could start for 10 cents (rather than the normal $59 start-up fee [or $19 if you got a premium membership]). It’ll be cheaper for us, since the airbase gym requires a lot more gas to go to it and Trey can’t go to the ualr gym with me without paying $5 each time since he’s not doing school this semester. So it’s good. It’s $10 a month (with a $30 annual fee) for a basic membership and $20 a month for a premium. The premium allows you to do more group classes (like kick boxing, zumba, boot camp, etc.), you can bring 1 friend with you for free, you get free tanning… and maybe some other stuff.
I might upgrade later, but I figured I’d start out with the basic since it doesn’t cost to upgrade.

We’ve also been taking this protein powder that has 24g of protein in it and it’s only 120 calories and 1.5g of fat per rounded scoop. I like it.

Hmm, I also applied at the GNC since I’m only getting 10-13 hours at build-a-bear now. I applied last Thursday I believe, so we’ll see. I hope I get it, because I could handle working more since I’m only taking 3 hours, I could use the extra income, and I’d get a 30% discount.

I still need to post pictures from Corpus Christi last week, but I’ll do that later in a separate post.
I guess I’ll get back to attempting to study now.

So I’m in Corpus Christi today and I figured I’d check this out since I heard it was going to be up soon. I’m really confused. Hopefully I can figure it out soon because the lay out and stuff is so different than xanga.
Trey has his interview today, so I’m pretty bored. I’m trying to work on home work and study, but I’m super stuck on my homework. We’re only in chapter two in class, but I’m on chapter three homework already. I have 90% finished and only 5 questions left. Four of the questions I have left our related (like part a, part b, part c, part d), so once I figure out how to do part a, I’ll be all good.
I originally planned to stay at the hotel, do homework and swim today, but I got forced into going to his aunts. We visited them last night and had dinner and somehow they got the idea I was coming over tomorrow to hang out while Trey interviewed and Maria asked Trey when I’d be over tomorrow and he said he’d drop me off on his way to the interview place.
It bugged me that I wasn’t asked at all, but I can’t do anything about it. I mentioned it last night, but he said I should’ve said something when I was there. And this morning I asked if I had to and he said it’d be really nice… he just wants me to get along with his family and stuff. I understand that… I just had other plans. I didn’t want to stay over here where I have to stay indoors and I feel like I have to socialize. I had really bad social anxiety last night over this. Besides, I’d feel more comfortable at the hotel. It just sucks. Trey’s been at the interview for two hours, so he’s probably just now finishing up the written exam, then he’ll have a physical exam, then they’ll take lunch and I think they have the interview part after that.
I feel like I sound really awkward… Anyways.. I’m probably going to practice Rosetta Stone or work on physics more. I hope he gets back soon so we can go to the beach more before we have to leave tomorrow
