Dino$ @dVenTuRe$




oh wow.. yes i expected adventures today... but not this much!! lets see.. i woke up at 6:00 am... got dressed for an early interview... then well ofcourse i got lost on the way.. its like a MUST! even if i go to the road a billion times... its like a ritual.. i always take a wrong turn somewhere....

sooooo.... i head to the interview... and well.. i was a bit nervous and when im nervous i blush.. when im happy i blush.. when im stressed out i blush.. my face is pretty much always red ...

so i go in the interview tryin to be all laid back.. turns out the interviewing me has studied psychology and was analyzing me every move..

i feel so awkward when ppl stare directly at me for a long time.. i feel like i have to look away... but looking away sometimes gives the wrong impression..

so in the middle of the interrogation.. and staring straight at me.. he comments on how i seemed stressed out and that he noticed im blushing ! hmmm i wasnt nervous till he mentioned THAT!

SOo..... then he says casually... " there is an earthqauke" he doesnt move from his share..or flinch.. or react.. he was just smiling and so relacxed while the building felt like it was swaying from left to right!

i sat there unsure whether to laugh.. to cry.. to run.. to stay put! ( keep in mind the building is very high.. sooo... i thought i was nervous and imagined the world was shaking... turns out it WAS ACTUALLY SHAKING!!! AAAH!

i wanted to just leave the office and run ... but he was soo cool and casual and said.. " im not scared.. whatever will happen will happen if u want to go downstairs go"!! emmm i felt silly so i stayed!!!

SO well after a long interview... i leave thinkin " omg earthqauke!" as if i needed more events... this guy comes to me and says " hi my friend just saw u and wants to marry u give me ur parents number"

LOL that was defintely something i didnt expect.... i mean how can he decide to marry me just like that?! neway... so i leave the place.. go back home.. get stuck in traffic for a billion hours... ofcourse missed a turn somewhere... now i have loads of work to do... cant believe im blogging..

but omg.. today was eventful for me... i even forgot to EAT! *stomache growls

still dunno how the interview went.. wish me luck guys .. pray for me ...

Yeah, yeah..lost in traffic,nervous interigation, earthquake, whatever.....tell me about the guy and the marriage proposal Dino....!!!!!
Details , Details......!!!

Well, no marriage proposals for me today. Just an overpriced bill from a garage mechanic with dirty hands and a possible case of frost bite.
Car is fixed though .... cost me almost $500...what is that ?...1500 dhm. Stupid cars. This town is so small it doesnt even have a bus system...cause I would happily get rid of the car and take a bus at this point. I do walk alot though.. butI aint no camel and I cant pack my groceries on my back...so , I deal with the car.

Earthquake. That is two for you guys in the past few months ? Is this a good thing ? ....lol
Once when I lived in Calgary with my mom ( I was about 15 or 16....) there was an earthquake...which is very rare for that area....and my mom made me run out into the hallway of the apartment ( 7th floor) to stand in the stairs with a cooking pot on my head.....neighbors came out as well...less the cooking pots. Nieghbors got a good laugh....ha ha ha.

I am trying to think of the counter solution for that staring thing the interviewers do. I hear that used alot. Apparently you just sit quietly and look back at them smiling gently. They will not usually speak again until you initiate the conversation...so If you see it happening try to have some key phrases on hand.

I would probably just smile and ask if there was anything else they would like to know about me or my qualifications....*innocent smile..batts eyelashes ...smiles some more...*

OMG..can I blush !....and I am not even shy. But I used to be terribly shy..so I think that reflex is still there and kicks in at the worst moments. Like if I feel a bunch of people looking at me..or yeah, an interview I had for the job I have now. But I just ignore it and collect my thoughts. I find it goes away faster that way.

Glad you survived the day ! Good girl.

Hey Mud...we will share some recipies with you so you can learn to cook.
Now, what you will need is :

OMG Mud......you were in the Tsunami ?.....I suddenly have like a thousand questions for you.

And did we here about it ? The WHOLE WORLD heard about that man.

Electric frying pan.....okay, okay, dont panic..we can walk you through this.
Now first thing to do is...plug in the frying pan
Second thing to do...stop, relax and we will tackle lesson number two next week.

Bread and egg...good start. Good for you. Women love men who can cook !!! Once those eggs start frying there will be a lineup at your door. Your roommate wont be angry..he will be impressed !!


Yeah. Dino...we can get matching pots. Start some kind of offical club for earthquake prevention....we will need to measure heads for the size of pots.Or we just go with a large chinease cooking walk with handles...that would be good. Even my mother would approve...!!!

Work, work ,,, i have to go to work.....!!

MUD !!!!..do you get paid for that extra time ????

Like you would catch me dead at the office after my shift...no way man. They would have to pay me double...wash my car and kiss my *** if they want me to stay. I run my buns off all day. Great people to work for..but there are limits !

HOe to prevent and earthquake with pots...you are funny today !

The pots are to put on our heads of course. If a building is falling on my head..this will protect me...ummm.... I hope.

What is all this reference stuff to lovers???....why am I not in this conversation you guys....???? *stomps away angry*

Man..go to work all day and miss the good stuff. Typical SK, typical.


Oh, good weekend you guys....relax and be good.
