    Just a quick note to say that I finally beat FTL. I've put so much time into this game that it truly feels like a milestone in my life. I will now go on to more productive things.
     
    (protip: cloaking is OP. took me long enough to figure it out)

    ...and the Canucks just lost their third straight game, despite dominating the Kings in every way possible.

    As you may or may not know, I was recently hired as a barista at a local coffee shop.
     
    I have no experience as a barista, if you're wondering. I have my foodsafe certificate, which means I'm licensed to work in the food industry, but the most experience I've had brewing coffee is dumping some grounds on the machine at home and making some drip coffee.
     
    But I'm not an old dog yet; it's time to learn a new trick!
     
    I started off yesterday washing dishes. Not very glamorous, but everyone has to start somewhere, right? The coffee shop that hired me is a very quaint little place where you can have your beverage brought to your table in nice ceramic cups. That means dishes to wash, but it's not difficult, and I don't mind washing dishes.
     
    I quickly moved on to learning how to work the till. I've worked in retail before, so it's nothing new, but the machine is a little different than the one I used before, so it took some getting used to. I've already perfected service-with-a-smile, according to my coworker, so everything's good there.
     
    Today was my second day, and I learned how to pull a shot. Exciting, right? My first shot was too slow, and the second and third were too fast, but after that I got the hang of it and started making some nice espressos. Granted, everything I made went towards mochas or cappuccinos, not drinks like americanos that are made or broken on the quality of the espresso, but it still felt good.
     
    Tomorrow I'll learn how to steam milk, and maybe even start making some drinks from start to finish. We'll see! I'll make sure to bring back some stories for you guys- I've already met some very interesting people.

    monday night: started work on my biology poster, but went to bed at an acceptable time because i knew that...
     
    tuesday night: pulled another all-nighter to finish my biology poster and also write my philosphy term paper.
     
    wednesday night: stayed up till 3AM on my final biology lab report.
     
    thursday night: went to bed at an acceptable time. slept 12 hours.
     
    final casualty count: approx 24 hours of sleep lost. whew.

    I'm moving away to attend university this fall.
     
    It's a weird feeling to look around and realize that the life I'm living right now will disappear at a certain point in time. Three weeks from now, to be exact. I've always known I'd leave home eventually, but putting a specific date to that concept is definitely a little spooky.
     
    I've already found a place just a few minutes off campus, and I'll start packing this week. It's neat.
     
    So to all of you who have already gone through the process of moving into your own place: what advice do you have? What do you recommend bringing along? What did you not realize you needed until two weeks after you moved in?

    It's really cool seeing my name in bold.
     
    Ever since I went Premier, my name's been different. Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga... both nice names, but more for fun than anything else. They weren't really me. It felt like I was slightly a different person using them. Kinda.
     
    But Eyru is me. This is my name. I've had it for years, and it feels good to get it back.
     
    What's your favourite name out of all the names you've used over the years? Like I said, mine's Eyru, but Justin Bieber comes in very close second.

    well uh i guess it's pretty obvious because i'm wearing the new winner but here it is anyway
     
    TYLER IS LOVE IS THE WINNER
     
    'Stop Poutine' came in close second, only four votes behind
     
    ...
     
    now i guess the only thing to say is
     
    "the first rule about fight club is that tyler is love"
  11. Eyru
    nvm I'm still premier haha
     
    anyway what's the deal with all these outside links?
     
    IT SEEMS LIKE JUST YESTERDAY 'YOUTUBE' WAS CENSORED *sniff*

    yup.

    Day three was a good day, by all accounts.
     
    Breakfast was ordinary: once again I made an egg with some potatoes. So original, right? Unfortunately, my day always starts earlier than I'd like it to, so I'm usually scrambling to get the door. Hence the quick, simple breakfasts.
     
    For lunch I had an egg salad sandwich and a pear scone. Today's temptation was a bowl of Thai chicken soup, which is seriously one of the best things in the world. But I resisted! (the scone helped)
     
    Supper was chili and rice -vegetarian chili! My mom told me that she wasn't going to cook for me (which I heartily agree with; this is my decision, after all, not hers), but my family really doesn't eat a ton of meat, and it turns out that the chili was safe. Score!
     
    Also I got stat pay for working on a holiday, played street hockey, and wrote a song. A pretty good day, I'd say.

    You know when you're watching a bad movie, but it's so bad that it's good? As in, the acting is wooden and the dialogue is terrible and everything sucks but it's stil an enjoyable movie?
     
    Why is that? It's seriously so weird.
