plane tickets
I finally purchased my plane ticket.
After I did some shopping around and deliberating upon which day I was actually going to come home, I decided to fly to Jackson Mississippi on Thursday, July 7th and spend a few days with Justin.
This way, my plane ticket cost me $130. I couldn't find a ticket any cheaper than 300 to arkansas, and mom was going to force me to ride in a car with her to Mississippi to visit Justin anyway, and that's just too much traveling for me. So, I save money, and I don't have to sit in the car forever.
^_^
I'm just dreading the long car ride back to Arkansas on Sunday.
Also, I just spent the past hour of my life chatting on the phone with my boss in Arkansas. She was "getting me up to speed" with all the partners and what's going on inside Starbucks.
We have a new district manager.
My least favorite partner transfered (he was so unreliable).
Another of my least favorite partners transfered from our store to the other to be a shift. She said "i know you don't believe me, but I'm not lieing". LOL.
One of our shifts is stepping down and only going to work one day a week.
We have a new ASM.
We have a transfered partner who has "the personality of a fly", and is not allowed to work on drive thru.... ?
We have a transfered partner who will be leaving in a few weeks.
And my future roommate has her big coffee master exhibit thingy next week. I bet she's nervous. ^_^
I'm pretty sure I knew all of these things, but I went ahead and let LorEnn tell me, because she likes to talk, and I want her to think I like her. She's really cool.
I'm coming home soon! ^_^

Freddy Kruger's Basement
I totally went there yesterday. Just to see what it was really like.
Ok, so here's what you do...
You walk into one of the shops on canal street, and walk to the back, pretending to admire the purses, and then one of the asians will be like "gucci coach prada"... except it's kind of hard to understand them because they have a hard time pronouncing the words... and they're really quiet and secretive about it. You say "gucci" or whatev, and they walk you to the very back, press a button, and the wall opens. It's like a secret door! AMAZING....
Then you walk up this staircase, and the door shuts behind you and you walk and walk until you get to this room that's full of the really good knockoffs that are illegal to sell because they look exactly like the real thing.
And that's it, ladies and gentlemen. That is Freddy Kruger's basement....
Oh, they sell the purses to you, and put them in black trash bags, so that the police don't see you carrying them...
I was tempted to buy a new 8 gig ipod nano from a guy on the street for 50 bucks... They were stolen, but I mean, it's not like I can help that?
But I don't need one,because my old 4 gig is still in good condition, and my conscience got the best of me.

Kayla Oudthone
My friend Kayla just so happens to be the National Kickboxing Champion... and ranked fourth in the world, or it could be fifth, I dont' really remember. lol.
Anyway, she has to fight people who are older than her and bigger than her because people in her division are intimidated by her.. they're afraid to fight her. And it's not like she's a a scary girl, she's just really good. Her family is from Thailand, and her father owns the kickboxing studio in Jacksonville where she learned to fight, as did all of her siblings and such.
What I'm getting at is... She has a fight here in Manhattan on August 8. She just found out today, and I'm stoked. I'm totally going to go see her fight and stay in the hotel with her and her family that weekend, since I have to move out august 7. I've always wanted to see her fight, so this is really really cool!!! ^_^

Let freedom ring
"let the whole world sing?
today is the day of reckoning?
let the weak be strong...
let the right be wrong?
blah blah blah blah
INDEPENDENCE DAY"
this song has been stuck in my head ALL DAY LONG
and yet I can't figure out what the actual words are
and I'm too lazy to look up the lyrics online...
it doesn't matter that much to me.
ALSO
Spiderman scared the CRAP out of me today.
he was hiding in a phone booth
and jumped out in front of us and threw his spidey web....
fun times.

What I'll miss the most...
being told a million times a day
that my accent is "lovely"
and "my favorite by far"
ha!
People here are so appreciative of the southern accent.
