candylandErm...yes. Two weeks or thereabouts since I last updated this thing? Sorry. Hermity!Candy has been a bit of a hermit. Won't go into too many details, but after a crisis of oh-my-god-what-the-fek-am-I-doing regarding work and worrying about my test (which I'm still not ready for, PANICTIEMZNAO), I'm getting out of my little funk.
I haven't checked my f-list much in the last couple of weeks. D-did I miss anything? *g*
Parents celebrated their twenty-ninth wedding anniversary on October 4th. We went to Red Lobster. Delicious shrimp is very delicious. I ate too much, but that's okay. Then we went home and my aunt stopped by. She has a new dog. Her name is Coco, and she is a big lovable snuggly ball o' fluff!
We've had snow here. Twice. Barely a dusting, but snow it has been. ATTENTION, WEATHER: WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE SNOW FOR REALZ UNTIL AFTER HALLOWEEN. Then it becomes fair game. But not too much of it. Really. Last winter was awful, and I live in an area made of hills.
Stuff has been happening at work. Due to them hiring more techs, there aren't enough hours to go around for everyone to get as many as they were promised. Sooooo I'm getting cross-trained across two other departments to get more hours. This is fine by me. Pulled my first shift in a different department yesterday, and will be in yet another department tomorrow. When all is said and done I will be trained across a grand total of four departments.
Kingdom Hearts playing continues slowly. I guess when I think of Kingdom Hearts, I tend to think of slightly larger worlds than the ones they're giving me, because Agrabah (thus far) has consisted of three "rooms." Come on, even Chain of Memories had sizable worlds. Maybe I just haven't gotten quite that far yet.
Little Sister (generally known for the purposes of this LJ as Bug) is coming home at the end of the month for fall break. We're going to celebrate both our birthdays then. We're two years and five days apart, so it makes sense to just do them together when we're both here, ya know? Less expensive as well, doing one birthday dinner instead of two. I'm looking forward to getting to spend a bit o' time with her before she goes back. She wants us to go out for sushi :D
...blaaaaaaaah want to write something *flops*
Okay, enough flailing, there's the short version of the Update On My Life. Now I have to clean and do laundry. And possibly find something to eat because I am a hungry girl who does not have to work today HUZZAH!

Cross-training is a good thing. It makes you more indispensable. Good luck on the test. :)

Date: 2009-10-14 05:09 pm (UTC)And birthday sushi sounds delicious :D I still have to figure out what to do for you!
And that sucks that the worlds have been small so far in 358/2 Days. Hopefully they'll get better or something D: *is really looking forward to playing the game* I've decided that I'm going to start it after this semester ends, whether I'm done with II or not.
My friend is gonna start it wif me. ^^;

Date: 2009-10-14 08:40 pm (UTC)My brother and I are exactly three years apart in age. We always celebrated our birthdays together.... that is, until he started complaining he wanted his own birthday. Ah well.

And we can have life crisises together, woo -_-
Oh, also, I still think 358/2 DOES get better since I have about... twenty missions left according to the guide. However, I also have more proof that Xion is a Sue. I shall expand elsewhere for you.

Date: 2009-11-03 03:43 pm (UTC)LOLZjustice!Yeah, that wound up not happening. Stupid place being closed for a stupid private party...she and I are rescheduling for the next time she's home on break, whoo~
It has gotten sort of better, but I still honestly cannot form an opinion on whether or not I'm enjoying the game. I mean, I must be because I'm still playing it (past day 300 at this point) in spite of the tediousness. I dunno. Will see once I get to the end!

Date: 2009-11-03 03:47 pm (UTC)Wow 0.0 My sister and I are two years, four/five days (depending on how you count), and we generally celebrated separately until we got older, when we'd say, "Let's just do one birthday dinner. It's less expensive that way."
