Just got home from work. I started at 3:00PM today and was originally scheduled to leave at 9:30. But the last flight to Iceland was delayed until 10:30 though so me Paul and Manpreet had to stay and hour more and cash out and do everything. The Icelandic flight was intense. We were so busy and a bit unorganized with some things so it was a little confusing and hectic. But we got through it with minor problems. It was good too because it made time go by faster.

When I was on my way home I gave Tony a call and asked about his day. We talked for a while until he had to go to sleep and I made the rest of my way home safely.

Once I got in my house I was greeted by a very excited Yumi. Everyone else was already sleeping. She went up to me right away, tail wagging and jumping everywhere. I played with her for a bit and washed up. She was very excited to see me but at the same time she was yawning so much. lol so I just pet her and placed her in her bed and continued petting her lightly and slowly. When I finally kissed her on her head she instantly dropped it on her pillow and passed out. xD she's the cutest thing. Such a tolerant puppy with a nice temperament. I couldn't have asked for a better puppy

Yumi is becoming more and more aggressive.

I felt scared when she bit my dad's foot today because my dad has diabetes. Thankfully her teeth didn't puncture through the epidermis and only resulted in a tiny blood blister the size of this period " . "  I really need to train Yumi though. If she had bit my dad harder in the foot and actually bit through the skin than that could've lead to a more serious infection.

She managed to get out of her play area today too. I think she was strong enough to push the safety gate because she couldn't have jumped it. It's still too tall for her to jump over it still.

Yumi...you're starting to lose your cuteness...lol.

No I'm kidding. I think it's just today I've been feeling pretty down in the dumps because of a few things: I made a couple mistakes at work today, I completed my assignment for class, but I'm quite positive I did horribly on it (I really should've talked to my prof earlier this week about it.), And I fought with my dad about some car stuff and felt bad afterwards because I wasn't being very understanding of his temper which comes with diabetes.

I think I'm mostly ashamed of myself and of the work I had to hand in today because I didn't manage my time very well this week. I became very busy upon Yumi's arrival. I was too tired to do things and neglected my reading assignments.

Hopefully tomorrow and next week will be better.

This morning my professor began the class first by asking if anyone had any Tylenol or Advil since he had a really bad headache. I had some Advil and was going to offer some to him but he had already started the lecture.

He told us the reason why he had a headache and it was because he got punched in the head last night while he was waiting at a bus stop downtown.

It was pretty sad. I was worried he was going to faint right there in front of the whole class when he just stopped talking in the middle of explaining something and stood there looking like he blacked out or something. He sat down and he took a sip of his water and was just trying to recollect himself. He continued on with the class normally. And as much as he tried to further explain the concepts of our lesson he apologized to us saying he was going to end it early today.

He's such a nice and understanding person too, it's sad that he had to experience that.

Downtown Winnipeg is scary after dark!

She doesn't like car rides. lol

This week I haven't been participating very much in my Philosophy class.

After getting Yumi, I've been putting all of my attention on her. Looking after puppies is tougher than I thought!

I hope I get to housebreak her soon. Cleaning after her every other hour is a little tiring.

Thankfully I don't have work today so I have less things to do.

My daily schedule now:

Home:

5:30AM: Wake up and take Yumi outside.
5:45AM: Feed her.
6:20AM: 3. Put her in her play/sleep area.
6:25AM: Take a nap until she cries again.
When she wakes up I just play with her and clean her up if she needs it.
Then I doze of on the couch until I have to go to school which is at 10:45 every M - F.

School.
Work.
Home.

By the time I get home I'm too tired to do anything except play with Yumi.

Today was more busy since I did a lot of shopping for Yumi and the house. Lots of cleaning to do.

I'm pretty tired now. I'm going to take a nap until I go pick up my cousin at 11.

Female. Japanese Chin / Shih tzu. 2 months old.

Tony got her for me this afternoon. My family loves her~

But I still haven't picked out a name for her yet.

Was 30 minutes late for work today. It's funny how I would've still been on time since I was dismissed from class early but I decided to kill time by going to the mall for a bit. I really thought that I was starting my shift at 2:00 but it was actually 1:30. My managers didn't say anything though...Hopefully they don't fire me!

Also, my coworker asked me to go running with him at the park....He's married though so.... I don't think it's a very good idea.

I love my boyfriend Tony.

Since the start of June a lot of things happened all at once. I finally got a job at the Airport and also began my summer course in the same week. But for the month of May I was really getting fed up with not landing a job after so many tries at so many different companies. I probably sent out more than 20 resumes and did about 10 interviews in person, online, and over the phone. I felt like I was never going to get a job. My mom was really pushing me and I was feeling pretty depressed just staying at home being unproductive all the time. Naturally I like to be really busy. Since I was 17 I worked and went to school all year round even during the holidays. The only time I actually had a vacation was last year with my boyfriend when we went to Toronto which was only about a week then I went back to school right away. If I'm not working making money, I need to be in school learning something. That's just how I am.

So the month of May killed me. But my boyfriend who I have also been on and off with for the longest time always told me that I just need to be patient and good things will come. He even predicted that maybe I'd get more than one interview all at the same time; and I did. I had to make a choice whether I wanted to take this job as opposed to that job and both were really promising positions. So I was really happy and thankful that things were finally letting up.

Class has been really good too. It's actually the only class that I've talked so much in. The only other classes I ever participated in were Catholic Studies, and History and Culture (An Architecture class), but I probably only participated in 1 or 2 discussions the entire semester. I don't want to include Mandarin because it's required for us to participate. But it's different this time because the class I'm taking now is Critical Thinking which is a Philosophy course. I never thought I'd break out of my comfort zone in a Philosophy class. It's really important that I engage in the debates though otherwise I wouldn't have a full understanding of things.

It's funny, if I was early for the first day of class I would have probably sat somewhere in the back and would've never ended up being one of the talkative students. But I was late and the only seat available was the one at the very front. My professor who I was expecting to be some old dude was actually this really young lad from Toronto. Really cool guy and took to it that he knew every students' name. I think it helps a lot that the Professor really connects with the students on a more personal level. I know it's impossible to know each students' name in a class of 200 but my class consists of around 30 people so I think it helps to take the extra effort to get to know each one. I also thought once he remember my name, with each assignment and test I do, he can put a face to that name and it'd be pretty embarrassing if I handed in a half-assed report or got lazy to study for a test. So in that aspect it helps to make me try harder too.

It's a good thing that my class came first than I got hired at my current job. It made me less shy and more confident in what I have to say. Being at home all the time for the month of may and not really socializing, it's no surprise that I did horrible in my interviews since I'm not really a talkative person normally. But yeah everything had to happen at a certain time to make everything fall perfectly into place I think which has brought me here now. Feeling good at where I am right now and finally happy with everything.

After work I went over to wal-mart to kill some time until my movie date with Tony.

bought some $8 flip flops since my work shoes were killing my feet. But my toes were going to be exposed so I bought some cheap $2 nail polish and did my toes in  my care before I left for Silver City.

Met up with Tony at the movies where he had already purchased tickets and a poutine since we both got off from work and hadn't eaten anything yet.

Watched X-men First Class. It was really good. Awesome even. In all of Marvel, X-men is my favorite. Thor's good too.

Felt nauseous halfway into the movie and really sleepy. I was sleepy all day today. I don't know why because I slept a full eight hours last night.

After the movie we went to eat at Moxie's. We ordered the Saturday special for the drinks which was a long island something. I didn't drink too much of mine since I was feeling sick already and didn't want to make things worse.

After that Tony and I drove around. For some reason I felt a little uncomfortable. I have no clue why. Maybe because I was tired and nauseous. But I also felt a little nervous. About what? I really don't know.

Then drove home and felt better. The thought of partying, drinking, and smoking doesn't really interest me that much anymore. I don't see the fun in getting totally wasted and putting all those harmful stuff in my body. I'll think that way for a moment, but when I'm at the club or a party with friends, of course I'm going to see past the negative feelings about it all and just try and enjoy my time.

I think being prego made me more cautious about what I put in my system now.

work was oh so fun.

that's all.

too sleepy to continue.
