Hey all

Well in the last blog I told you about a trip i went on. We (my sister, parents, brother+wife, and myself) went to this resort called Deerhurst. My bro and his wife flew in from California just to come Anyways, there we did a bunch of outdoors-y stuff like play tennis, soccer, basketball, swimming, etc. The most exciting part was when I went parasailing. It was unbelivable! It was so peacful up in the sky and it was so beautiful all around. Life is so amazing. We should be thankful we have it.

Anyways, we came back from the trip. Now, Ive been waiting for a phone call, or email, from this lady that said she would give me a job. I went to an interview like 2 weeks ago and i told her i couldnt start till i came back so she said she would call me sunday the 6th..and she didnt. Anyways, she called me on the 7th and I started tonight, the 8th. What is this place, you might ask? None other than...

Im sure most of you know what this is, if you dont live in north america..than you probably wont. Anyways, as you could have guessed, its a coffee shop. And holy crap there is a lot to know! You have to know how much coffee beans to grind, when to grind them, HOW to grind, etc. Then you have to learn how to make like 30 drinks. Then Im going to have to learn how to do Espresso. Anyways, its quite overwhelming. Tonight I just did the cash register. Now, this being my first job, I was nervous. But I had a lot of fun, and thought the cash was pretty easy I work tomorrow and Thursday, continuing my training

Besides that, Im in summer school! It started yesterday. Im taking Advanced Functions, a grade 12 math course. It is a prerequisite to this course, Calculus and Vectors. Both of which, I need to get into the university program I want. Its basically 9am-3pm..straight math. I love it! Im a sucker for math. And doing it all day makes the day fly by, its awesome Ill keep you updated.

In gaming related news: I finished GTA IV, and I finished Battlefield Bad Company and now im playing Multiplayer. I have to say, I was quite surprise by Battlefield. I didnt expect much from it, but its REALLY fun. The singleplayer was exciting and quite humorous. And the online, when not lagging, is really enjoyable. I love it I may review it in the future..probably not, but still. If you guys want to play it online, send me a msg, or add me: Perplexed Mind

See you guys on the battlefield.
Have a good day.

You like math, really? I can't stand it! It is my worst subject. Glad you like it though, can't say I know many who do. Nice on finishing GTA IV, it really did have a good ending, although there were many loose ends that weren't tied up. I'm guessing that R* did that on purpose to make room for the DLC. Have fun at your new job.

dude that's sweet, congrats on the job, i'm sure you'll do just fine. as for memorizing the drinks, you'll probably start to notice patterns which will help you, i know it's a lot on the first day but eventually you'll get it down. keep on rockin the big Canada for me.

I don't like math. Your job reminds me of Starbucks. I'm trying to get a job still. Congrats on the job though.

Congrats on the job and finishing GTA IV. It takes a little while but eventually you will be able to recite the drinks names/prices/ingredients/time takes to make in a matter of seconds. That's when you realize you're working too much .

And I don't hate math, but I don't love it either, kinda in between which is rare for most people .

Hey congrats on the job, it sounds really cool and what's the pay? Congrats on beating both GTA IV and Bad Company and good luck with the Advanced Functions course.
