Ever meet someone and think wow, you are super white!

I'm not talking about skin color (although sometimes that is the case). I'm talking the stereotypical white American. Republican, country girl, grew up on a farm, aspiring housewife, always on the look out for a husband, drunken party girl, hates hip hop (which saddens me), super friendly and a bit judgmental of blacks. This describes my coworker. She's really nice though. I was just taken aback by how white she is. If that even makes sense. I'm not racist but growing up in a city, I'm not really exposed to people like her who aren't from a city. Just a simple observation. She adores Sarah Palin too.

I came back to Davis yesterday. It is so hot! I started my new job today. Basically I get to be a receptionist. I pick up the phone and process petitions. I gather files for the counselors and things like that. There's so much stuff I have to learn and not to mention, I got kind of lost today in the office looking for the water cooler. That's pretty embarrassing. The nice thing is I get my own computer account and can change the wallpaper. I know.. what a lame thing to be excited about. I'm totally making it a pic of Favre though as soon as I get the chance. Probably that pic in the last post. And thanks Jess and Leslie for noticing the Wrangler ad. I have seen it before. He makes me want to go to K-Mart and purchase men's jeans. Or rather, he makes me want to take off his jeans. You didn't hear this from me.

So I watched Burn After Reading. It was moderately funny. Person I went with didn't like it though. Called it dumb. I was a little disappointed by that because who doesn't like funny murders? I sure do.

p.s. Anyone else remember Undressed? I use to think I would go to hell for watching it. I grew up semi-Catholic.

To be honest, that is all.

I'm pretty grateful he's still playing right now. My old man crush continues. big time.

So at work, there is this guy named Willis. He's a short Asian man who makes silly jokes. He's very nice and always friendly to me. Yesterday, I was labeling some books that the store bought back. Afterwards, I went to shelf them. As I was walking back and forth carrying heavy law books, Willis makes an observation.

Willis: You're going to get realllyyy buff this summer!
Me: Oh um.. I don't really want to.
Willis: When you go back to Davis, you'll impress all the guys with your muscles.
Me: heh
Willis: (raises both his arms like body builders do.... then he kisses each bicep...)
Me: :O

I disregarded the whole you're getting buff thing. Then I was talking to Milk Crate on the phone about this and he says that it's no joke. You're gonna get biceps. I was like no way! and disregarded that as well.

I was taking a shower tonight and noticed my arms... look bigger than usual... omg I am getting buff. After only 2 weeks at work. I still have at least 3 weeks to go.

I am so sad right now. :( I'm not used to this fit business.

Today was an interesting day. I went to work expecting to do the same old same old. Instead, I got to sit in on an orientation! It was pretty boring, consisting of a powerpoint presentation on what is what in the bookstore. Snooozefesttt! Then Robert, the manager, told us that we're all going to the bookstore to pick out an item and then we're going to present them to the rest of the temps and sell it! I picked a teddy bear because I just cannot grow up. We had to list 3 features and 3 benefits.

Features: This bear has a head, two arms and two legs... to which Robert said, ok we know the bear is anatomically correct. I went on to say real bears don't really sit like this... but I digress. The bear is really soft. The bear has on a t-shirt with the school's name on it.

Benefits! This bear is like a friend! If you're homesick or just need a friend, hug a bear. The bear can be used for decorative purposes to express school pride. The bear can also be a great gift for children, friends, significant others.

I think I was pretty charming because everybody laughed. I don't know why they laughed exactly, but I hope they were laughing with me... Then Robert stopped calling me by my name. He started calling me teddy bear. I don't know how to feel. It's ok, I guess. I like teddy bears.

I got to see JanChan for a split second which made my day since my days aren't very exciting nowadays.

As for Favre getting traded to the Jets, I'm excited to see him play. Back in March, he wasn't going to play ever again. At least this way, I can still see him play. I was very against him coming back at first because I loved him too much to see him tarnish his legacy this way. Now I've accepted that he's done this to himself because he just wants to play the game of football this damn much. The only thing I don't like is that the Jets play the Patriots at least twice a year. I hate the Patriots... but I don't really see the lowly Jets crushing the Pats. I hope it happens. I'll see.. What is truly exciting is that the Jets are coming to play the 49ers in SF and the Raiders in Oakland! Tickets tickets, here I come!

ok. i'm off to watch some Spongebob. great show. it really is.

Heyyy!

So I started working a lot last week.

I cart books and put them on the shelf.

Whoo!

The End.
