Wow. I was insanely bored today after work. "_" have not felt this bored for so long.
Luckily,I had homework to remedy that. I am taking Canadian military history for my summer course, as well as working at the same job i have maintained in Calgary for the past three years. The school course is insanely boring... Canadian history is just so bland, young, and really not that eventful when you have studied chinese or japanese or european history. I feel like a history major more than an east asian studies one... I have so many history courses under my belt.X_XOh, I can also minor in Chinese... as of... since... last year hahah. Those trips to taiwan really added a lot of course credit to my degree, thus I can now easily get the minor added on to it. Will look nicer for a job later on, though im not entirely sure what I want to do. Definately will not remain in Canada, will be heading back to Taiwan and Hong Kong area as soon as I graduate, no exceptions for anything except maybe medical and insurance issues. pay off my student loans,then live for real.
Work is wonderful, and I act like a child at work a lot of the time, sometimes even annoy the coworkers, but they seem to get by... today I accidently squished open some sort of squishy bug toy with green ooze in it and it squirted all over my managers hair, face, and shirt. She was not too happy, but ..it was really an accident! so they just gave me a hard time and we all got over it. Yeah, working in a costume store is wonderful, except sometimes I feel a little bad for customers when the bosses and stuff are around. We dont really have a return or exchange policy comapred to other stores. Most wear is final sale within ten days, no store credit, and you cannot refund money. The bosses dont want to do any paper work or anything like that, and I really dont blame them, it can be a hastle. I just feel so bad and dont know what to say to customers when I give them our policy, other than ``thats just what my boss sets... I cant do anything else for you.``
Chinese studies still go well, slowly one improves. I still use chinese a lot in Canada... and I really like the reactions from some people who live here. I think it is hilarious when some of the girls get really scared or shy of me when I start speaking to them in their language, ahahaha. Im a jerk!
still missing 西門町 and 楊明山, along with most of 臺北. I wont get over it til I go back...just want to graduate here first. Then goodbye Calgary!
晚安
