I think its about time i updated my blog,.. lots has happend within the past couple months, well first of all i moved out of Miramichi, i'm in Edmonton I was staying with Uncle Joe & Auntie Berta for about 2 weeks, I had a job working at Guardian Drugs it lasted four days then Uncle Joe managed to get me a job in the camp.. So now here I am at the camp and its great.. Rob came out a week before me while i stuck it out at Guardian Drugs, I was suppose to be on cash and I was but not only that I was doing everything else.. One night the girl that was supervising and another just sat there and talked while they got me to do all the work, oh i was some pissed i couldnt stand it, it was the worst 4 days ever,... But yeh The camp is great, i get free access to the net and phone long distance anytime i want to which is great i work 9 sometime 10 hours a day cleaning rooms,.. I have to clean 41 room a day plus do extra cleaning on top of that its alot different the Lakeview but hey i can stick it out all i gotta think of is the money i'm going to be bringing in, and hopefully by the time i come back home i'll have enough money saved up to get a place or something.. The second day i was here i did over 50 rooms cause one girl didnt bother to show up until late that night so when everyone finished their bunks we had to go in and do those rooms on top of that, oh an i felt some bad because one guy, well first of all every morning we have to go check every room to see what type of room its going to be and when we're done that we start cleaning the rooms so when i knocked on the door the guy was still in the room so i marked it as a stay over then he came out and told me i could clean his room but i was still onlyy checking the rooms and when i did start cleaning i started at 41 and worked my way down, welll that guy was in room number one, and he thought i was going to clean his room as soon as he left it so he didnt close his door but i didnt know, and i went on doing all my rooms and by the time i finished the manager wanted me to go to the office so i did and when i got there i the guy was sitting there it turns out his $1500 lap top was stollen from his room and he had no insurence or anything on it, so they asked me some questions but i was no help cause they asked if i seen anyone in the hall but of course there was about 15 people that checked out that day so it could of been anyone.. but it wasnt my fault the manager told me and so did everyone else, but i still think its my fault i should of told him i wasnt cleaning it right away but i didnt know what was going on i only really started that day, but enough of that.. So anyways while i was still over Uncle Joe's place he and Auntie Berta took a trip to Calagary to visite Lesley so on the way they dropped me off to see Eden and spend the weekend over her place.. Oh was a time I had, Saturday night they took me out to the bar then to the club and I was feeling no pain and had a blast.. I got to meet some of her friends and just had so much fun i cant wait to go up and go out drinking again, their are some pics of facebook from the before/bar/club/leaving..
Oh sorry to be jumping around so much but i got lots to say and not sure where to start.. so yeh when i first got here everyone just looked at me like your too young to be here.. i had a few people ask me where my parents were, if i was here with them and if i was of age, they thought i was maybe 13/14 so when i said i was 19 gonna be 20 they were shocked and i still dont think half of them believe me but hey i dont care they should know you have to be of age to be here duh..lol.. but yeh pretty mcuh everyone here is so nice they all say hi and start having big conversations one guy last night kinda gave me the creeps and i couldnt understand like anythign he was saying but i managed to smoke real quick to get out of there i didnt want to be rude and say your scaring me or anything so yeh.. oh and one day i got a $20 tip just for doing a good job and the next day the guy asked if he left his clothes with money if i'd do his laundry and seeing how i wouldnt be going out of my way cause i have to wash all towel,sheets all that stuff i said sure and he gave me $20.. so its not bad i get compliment everyday about how good of work i'm doing, and i surprise so many cause i'm so small they dont think i can do the work.. some feel bad they make sure their room isnt messy and they make their beds so i dont have to but either way i still have to take them apart every couple days to wash their sheets and blankets but hey its still nice of them to try and help me out.. but anyways I dont even know what to write even though theres still lots more i'd like to write about.. so i guess i'm gonna go for now Rob will be getting off in another hour or so, and he'll be wondering where i am.. so i'll try to keep my blog updated and let everyone know how i'm making out.. and seeing how i'm gonna be updating my blog i think others should to so when i have time to myself i can come read whats going on with everyone.. but yeh hope everyone has a good night....

oh by the way wow we got lots of snow here i cant believe it theres none in edmonton or down miramichi,, but i love it here theirs trees everywhere haha.. thats sad i know but i miss it.. oh and my baby Chuck too i guess shes being a little torment with the other 2 cats.. oh and i might only be in 2 weeks so i can get out the same week as rob seeing how he started a week ahead.. we're suppose to be 3 weeks get one out but their gonna try to arrange it for us to get same time.. so yeh anyways yeh i gotta get going.. ugh i just keep rambling on i know..

Bye

I hate work.. I'm so pissed off right now.. Yesterday I worked and got off earlier then what they had me marked down for because i finished before everyone and didnt want to have to stay and help them clean their rooms.. well when i left i forgot to find out if i work today or not and Cathy forgot to mentiion to me.. so yeh thats was okay.. i decided to call lakeview to find out if i had to when i called i got the front ddesk and i asked if cathy was still there and that i dont know if i had to work tomorrow meaning today, well she said that they will call me to let me know if i do or not but was very rude about it so i said okay and was some mad about it too.. anyways later on i decided to call Sarah because shes supose to be my supervisor today but there was no answer then i wasnt waiting all night for her to call so i went to my friends place for a few hours when i got home there was no call on thephone from her.. so i set my alarm anyways just in case they decided to call me inthe morning.. and now here i am all showered and dressed for work not knowing if i am.. i called sarah again this morning no answer... If i am scheduled to work i have to be in by 830.. its 8 now and still no call nothing to let me know what they hell i'm suppose to do... now if its my day off they are so going to here from me when i go in.. she should of at least returned my call or something.. ugh i hate work but cant quit cause theres nothing else to do.. but anyways i'm fed up of sitting here waiting either way now i'm not going in even if they do call because they should of returned my call last night or even called this morning... anyways going to watch tv ....

After waiting for the longest time the other day rob decided to get me a kitten,..


We named him Chuck, and in this picture you can see his tongue sticking out a bit...











He was scared for the first night but after that he became very playful.. he loves Jeremy's rat cage I have, he's always sniffing and trying to find the rats..














It was funny when we took the top part off to the cage and set it on the floor he walked inside it and couldnt find his way out, thats when he started climbing the cage trying bite his way out..


























































Anyways, just wanted to post a couple pictures of my Chuck,...

I havent wrote in awhile so i figured why not today,.. Things are still going pretty good.. I'm still working at the hotel, its not too bad, I have my good and bad days,.. Last week sometime i had this one room with an older couple, the lady gave me a tip and told me her husband was gonna stay in the room and if i had any trouble with him kick him out lol.. well i went in and he went to use the washroom so i started off with the bed and dusting and by the time i finished he was coming out and i notice he had pee'd all over himself which was kinda sad but then i went into the washroom and noticed it was all over the floor too, i slipped in it and almost fell... then when they left they put a tip in an envelop for me...

Anyways.. For the first time in almost 2 years, i finally met robs father.. He came over and Rob and I both cooked supper, we had a chicken with potatoes and all that.. then invited mom and jerry over.. We were all surprised it turned out really good.. because the first time we tried cooking a big meal i think it was a roast mom and jerry came over and had to tell us how to cook and pretty much did it for us cause we had no clue what to do,.. Anyways, Robs sister's wedding was Saturday, rob and i got a drive up Friday with his mom then stayed until Sunday,.. The wedding went really well even though it rained.. It was long though an hour and a half just for them to be married ahh i was getting so cranky, then we went over to their hotel suite which was bigger than our apartment,.. Overall the whole thing went good. When we were leaving we couldnt find our way out of the parking lot, we kept getting lead into a dead end, which wasnt looking so good seeing how we had a cop following us.. finally they turned the lights on and came over and robs dad wasnt drinking so he let us go and told us to go straight ahead it would lead us to the road.. well he left andf robs dad turned right and we hit a dead end again finally i seen the cop leaving so we followed him out and got back to the house around 2..

Anyways I have to go get ready and get some food..

I'm no longer jobless.. I had quit my job at the Lakeview hotel a couple weeks ago, i just was getting so frustrated that they didnt have enough workers so worked everyone extra hard so i quit on them and bad timing too because the irish festival was that weekend and they were booked but hey i got to go to halifax with mom and jerry.. oh and i had a good time too lol but anyways,.. I put out one resume and did not get a call back so i just sat around all day cleaning the apartment and there isnt many jobs around here either which dont help.. so i kept looking on job bank and the newspaper but nothing i wanted to do.. so i applied back at Lakeview, two days later they called me and gave me my job back which really surprised me seeing how i quit short notice but they liked the fact they didnt have to train me again so I started back yesterday, since i quit they hired 3 more girls and are about to hire another.. If i would of known that i wouldnt of quit in the first place..
So yesterday was my first day back, they gave me 10 rooms to do, i could of had them all done by 12 but one room didnt have to leave until 1 so i had to stay and wait for them to leave while i waited i went and took one room of one the girls that were working once i finished they still werent gone so i took another girls room while i waited and finally once i finished they had left, i ended up staying until like 2:00 or something because once i finished i waited for dads girlfriend to finish her rooms and then she gave me a drive home.. Its good that she works there because now when we work the same days she drives me there and back... so i guess i dont mind working there..
Rob and I are thinking about moving again.. We want to get a place where pets are allowed but there are very few of those around and when there is one its taken the same day it goes in the paper.. Either way we want to move.. the people in this building are loud, annoying and smelly ugh.. the guy across from us smells really bad, he leaves like this big stench in the hall its disgusting.. I talked to dad and he might be moving and if he does i might try and get it because its right by my work and robs.. got the grocery store right there.. it'd be perfect but i dont know we'll have to wait and see.. but either way we plan on moving the sooner the better...
Well I'm gonna go finish watching my show.. bye

Work is starting to get to me, i like my job dont get me wrong but i dont like the fact that they dont have scheduals made out and they just tell me day by day if i work or not and seeing how everyone is quitting theres only 4 people to clean the rooms and one dont clean rooms unless she has to and when she does she just adds on to everyone elses list so it leaves her with only 2 or 3 rooms, and since one is on vacation now too it really sucks i got stuck working 6 days in a row once again i didnt mind the first time but every week being the same and on my days off they still try to call me in,.. We have 2 supervisors one does rooms then the one that does only if she has to and since one went on vacation they decided to get one the girls that started same time as me to do their job since on being on vacation and one dont work weekends, the one sarah went through explaining what it was she had to do rreal quick and then since it was the weekend she just left it all up to her to figure out.. i dont really think that was right either because she had to clue what to do cause i got stuck working the weekend and everyroom she wrote on my sheet that were gone were still in their room.. one guy was in the bathroom with the door wide open when i went in ugh then i had an old lady yell at me cause she thought i told her she had to leave even though i was telling her that they made the mistake on my sheet.. ugh i'm getting so tempted to just quit and work at the other hotel closer to my place... for the last week or so i havent been feeling good i caught some flu or something that was going around work and they knew when they looked at me i wasnt feeling good yet still made me work but would ask if i felt any better each time i said no and now today my stomach is sore but dont matter cause they dont have enough workers so i have to go in.. they are supose to have 7 workers so everyone is able to have 2 days off like they are supose to but i only had that once..
Anyways, the apartment gets so hot even with the two fans going it sucks i think the heat is whats making me sick because i havent felt this crappy in forever.. Rob and I tried for the internet too, we called twice once the guy said he couldnt pull up the file and he'd call back so after waiting a few days we called and the girl explained that the person living in the building before us had an outstanding bill so for us to be able to get it hooked up we would have to call another place to let them know that we arent those people so we called a few times and everytime we called we got an answering machine asking to leave our info and they'd call back.. its getting so frustrating...
Well anyways i gotta go get al my stuff together and leave soon.. I'm too tired to read over what i wrote so dont mind if some parts dont make any sense...
