First day of borders opening omgomgomgom
its crazy how different sylvia park looks i honestly was amazed that it was finished lol didnt look like it was anything good even up to 2 days before today
yeah so first day with customers omg so tired lol
learned how to do eftpos on the fly :o yay for the purchase buttons
unfortunately [or maybe fortunately because i probably hopefully wont do them again;
mistakes of today:
+lost an eftpos reciept. I had two. how did i lose them? i dont know it's probably related to my awesome talent of subliming paper
+assumed TLU was accurate. I told a customer that we had 40 copies on order and didn't actually go to section to check; and thne i look like an egg when the customer shows me the book lol
+ a customer buying 100 dollars + of stuff asked if they could have a calico bag for free. i was like hmmm i dunno if i can over it too mcuh so the dude was like one of those condescending things and i feel real bad. next time i shall call CSM immediately!!! and ask
omg kids is a nightmare i hate kids its the worst section in store roflcopter soi soi
its like having a ministore in a store, you *really* have to know where everything goes. "is there a holiday section!? maybe there is"
ok bye

Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat? Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet? Why do they use sterilised needles for death by lethal injection? Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets? Whose idea was it to put an S in the word lisp? Do married people live longer than single ones or does it only seem longer? If someone with a split personality threatens to commit suicide, is it a hostage situation? How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered? How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage? Why is it that people say they slept like a baby when babies wake up every two hours? Why do people pay to go up tall buildings then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

A lot happens, in the space of a year.
Why do I always gloss over important subjects and points? I did it yesterday. I just did it again. Work? Is that as important?
I feel really bad now, because I'd forgotten what this date held, 365 days prior; back when I actually thought getting to my class on time was more important than some random text message sent from my father.
Even now I still feel really bad that on that day, I was more focused on getting to class than the wellbeing of family.
I'd been getting txt messages through the class. I don't even remember what the lecture was on. It was in Engineering somewhere, and the content musn't have been important because I don't remember it.
I was sitting with Matt. But what are you supposed to say? I ended up reading my messages in silence. The lecture. It goes on. It's important! It's study! Study study study study till you fucking go blind in the pursuit of what, predicate logic? I know which I would rather have right now.
It takes less than a day for a lifetime to be taken away, but big boys don't cry. We have to soldier on and crap and other dumb cliches.
I'm already forgetting things. The harder you grasp the faster it slips. Memory is an elusive thing. What was her favourite food? colour? I don't remember.
Here I go again, prioritising classes. 10:20 am. I have to leave the door at 11:00. Need to shower.
Maybe it's what she would have wanted.
Henry: "I would like to build a memorial to my mother in the garden"
Random Aunt: "No, your mum wants you to study don't waste your time on these things"
She's probably made about 2000 friends by now, wherever she is. Heaven, other life, whatever. Comforting thoughts? Not really. I'll probably never see her again.
I love her still, and that's the hardest part.
Study. Fuck study. I want my mum back :(

2 shifts at the sort for Borders so far. Very exciting.
I've shelved/sorted the following stuff, in this order
erotica (lol yes, the first thing I had to shelf when i entered the store was pretty much porn lol, funny section), then religion (yeah, porn to buddhism then taoism then iching then judaism then holocaust (yes holocaust is under religion)), then paperchase which is stationery and stuff and cups and yes, we sell Stretchy Goldfish.
Then yesterday did Travel, then sorted some Comics (really cool section, I wanna get my hands on the Calvin and Hobbes stuff), then a really brief stint in section C before I went to uni. Section C is Crime, True Crime, Sci-Fi, Horror and Romance lol. Fantasy books come under Sci-fi, so Harry potter has science fiction on it's sticker. =P
It's a lot of manual labor as well lol it's pretty cool everyone is doing it, managers not exempt! The store GM was down there with us moving boxes off the palettes into piles to be distributed throughout the store. I have like cuts down my arm from moving boxes lol it's bizarre, they don't hurt but it's like I have battlescars or some crap.
Very exciting. Still need hard hat and vest to get to the store. First day to obtain those was a mission lol but I know what to do now at least.
And yes. Borders has a section for incest.

Link it to the world
Link it to yourself
Stretch it like a birth squeeze
The love for what you hide
The bitterness inside
Is growing like the new born
When you've seen, seen
Too much, too young, young
Solace is everywhere
Hopeless time to roam
The distance to your home
Fades away to nowhere
How much are you worth
You can't come down to earth
You’re swelling up, you're unstoppable
'cause you've seen, seen
Too much, too young, young
Solace is everywhere
Destroy the spineless
Show me it's real
Wasting our last chance
To come away
Just break the silence
'cause I’m drifting away
Away from you
Link it to the world
Link it to yourself
Stretch it like it's a birth squeeze
And the love for what you hide
And the bitterness inside
Is growing like the new born
When you've seen, seen
Too much, too young, young
Soulless is everywhere
Destroy the spineless
Show me it's real
Wasting their last chance
To come away
Just break the silence
‘cause I'm drifting away
Away from you
Link it to yourself
Stretch it like a birth squeeze
The love for what you hide
The bitterness inside
Is growing like the new born
When you've seen, seen
Too much, too young, young
Solace is everywhere
Hopeless time to roam
The distance to your home
Fades away to nowhere
