Wow that was definitly an interesting night...
So had a cruise with my High School friends last night... but basically my whole day was devoted to it, because Kenneth (our organizer) told me that the dress code was business formal (so either Dress Shirt/Dress Pants, Dress Shirt/Jeans)... well thats a problem since afterall those who actually read this know that my wardrobe is awfully limited to just t-shirts and sweatpants... so basically my whole morning and early afternoon was spent on finding decent stuff to dress... however obviously throughout my "fretting" the other members of our cruise party noticed me freaking over the "dress code" and just had to ask what was happening... needless to say it was pretty obvious that i was being scammed into dressing nicely... anyways by now it was too late.. .i got my father, mother, and sister involved... (actually i think they were just happy to actualyl get a RARE chance to dress me up for the night...) so I still ended up going nicely dressed...
so anyways including me there was 8 of us in our group... we don't need to go into all their names (not everyone that might read this knows everyone... (well Uni people definitly won't know)
btw I was DEFINITLY well dressed compared to all of them.. thank god my father gaved me his jacket to wear otherwise I would have stuck out WAY WAY more (I had much nicer clothing under the jacket)... actually everything but the sock, dress shirt, and dress shoes was from my father... so that would be the jacket, dress pants, vest (yes i was wearing a vest.. parents were afraid that it'll be cold.. actually with the rain it was LOL)
hmm so we got to the pier early and we waited for everyone to arrive (since some of us were arriving on our own). Then we finally got on the boat/yacht? and what do you know we had a whole table reserved just for us (we were the only ones to have a table reserved), so we dropped of our stuff and went to the top/dance floor to watch the harbour while the rest of the passengers was checked in... then we had our food (which i had a bit too much as i ended up getting everyones leftover, or stuff they didn't want to eat), and i was munching on the veggies sticks at the 3 bars (1 for each floor) .. btw i was a loser and as usual and did not have any alcohol.. anyways we only had 2 drink tickets, and pop had more liquid then alcohol did anyways... then we all migrated to the dance floor after food...
personally i would have loved to just sit on the side and watch the scenary as it passed by (the yacht just went around Toronto Harbour/Islands for 3 hours), but my friends wouldn't allow that. So they evntually managed to drag me onto the dance area... and because of how crowded the deck was, there was no way i could fight them off (like i did in the past events that had dancing involved ... ie Prom.. If you forgot my now.. I'm a loser)...
Well all i did then was just stand still and watch them dance... of course this didn't bode well with them especially since we still had like 2 hours in our cruise at this time... so basically a circle was formed... and i was pushed into the center and then Tim grabbed my arms and flailed them around to the music, and eventually got to the point of banging/knocking in my knees to get me to move forward, get my legs/hip moving etc... To make it short... I didn't dance.. yet i did dance, and that was only because i was "posessed" as i would like to say, and my body moved against my own will (which is 100% true)
anyways after a while thank god... it started to rain a bit, and the deck quickly cleared up as people went below to sheltered areas.. I took this opportunity to get a drink, and then to go down also with another friend.. .the other 6 continued to dance... and only returned when they were getting close to drenched.. from there on we just sat and chatted for the last 45-1 hr of the cruise...
after that I went home changed, and went out to Bubble tea with them all.
That ends my day and this rant...
oh on a sadder note.. I fear I may be on the verge of losing out my job... LOL well it was to be expected anyways... My boss like to try and save or get as much money as possible out of stuff... and funny enough I read in the newspaper for my hororscope something along the lines of job/boss etc etc... anyways so the jist of it is that my boss has found another student and he and assistants are gonna go through a trial period with him/her (which throughout this whole time I won't be able to go in, since we'll be doing the exact same thing...) anyways the main reason for all this is that i'm being paid $9 per hour, and my potential replacement is gonna be getting 8 something... oh wow... we know who my boss is gonna stick with... gotta start eating smart and save money by eating cheap/bringing food/starving till i get home... as its pretty obvious whats gonna happen.. $8 something vs $9... I know what my choice would be easily if i had the choice LOL
ah well... it was good while it lasted (though nothing has happened yet in reality)
