France lost! Augh! Good game, though, up until the French player headbutted the Italian guy, RANDOMLY, getting himself red-carded out of the game in the SECOND overtime, dammit. Pissed me off. The game went into penalty kicks, which also kind of sucked, but it was a sweet game in that they were tied for so long and everyone played well. Missed the first half though.

Oh man! Work! I actually had to do real work yesterday. First half of the day was more training for the registers, then after lunch we were supposed to shadow (me and the other new girl) but we ended up behind the registers. It got pretty busy on and off too. I made a lot of mistakes, and one pretty big one, but I was sorta getting the hang of it by the end of the shift. Still don't really know how to do transfers, DTCs or alterations type stuff, but I can do returns and regular transactions. Can open gift cards, too. The guy's gonna call us tomorrow with our schedules.

I don't think I mentioned this. Thursday night, I think, Liz called me up and was like, "Come get me!" Apparently she was in the middle of a game called Border Patrol, which is like...you have a group of people who try to run from one house to another one that's like a mile away or so. Then there's people driving around in cars, so if they spot you you're out of the game, so you have to be all stealthy about it. Supposed to mimic crossing the border, or something.

Anyway, Liz wanted different shoes, so I drove her back to her house and then we sort of cheated and followed some of the other players (who Liz didn't know at all--she was hanging with Steve). Eventually we made it to the house, and Liz asked if I wanted to play the next game, so I said sure, alright. Thing was, I had my sandals on, so I eventually just took them off and was running around, in the dark, at night, barefoot. On streets and through bushes and stuff. Baaad, idea, though it definitely toughened up my feet some. We got caught eventually, but it was pretty fun. After that Liz went with Steven and the others and I went home. I found out later I had like a little metal shard embedded in my foot. Haha, didn't even know it was there. Tweezers didn't get all of it out, either, so now my foot hurts. Yay, tetnus!

Dwah!!! Kingdom Hearts! I finally beat the first one! Geeezus, those final bosses were hard. And the ending was sad, too. But after I beat it I decided I couldn't wait so I ran out to Blockbusters (at 8 pm last night) and got the second one and played that for HOURS. The second one kicks ass! Better graphics, better gameplay, better music, and I like the storyline a lot better, so far. And Roxas and the Organization dealio are awesome! Axel especially--I love pyromaniacs with crazy hair. I miss Roxas and Axel already. The whole thing was so sad and emotional, which is why I like the storyline so much. Though it seems more like a movie than a game--there's a lot of cinematics, which I'm not really complaining about, though it kind of cuts down on gametime. Though if I remember there were a lot of cinematics in the beginning of the first one too. Still...*sigh* Poor Roxas! Poor Axel!

Haha, I can already see why those two are the subject of much, much slashing out in the fan world, though I haven't played the game enough to derive my own opinion of that.

Kingdom Hearts might very well own my soul now. Both games are so fun. I played until about two-thirty last night. Totally forgot I had a computer.

Ahhh...work is so tiring. I slept for an hour on my lunchbreak. Naps are lovely things. Don't know when I'll be working next, though I'm sure both me and the other new girl--her name is Megan, I believe--will be working all three days of the sale next weekend. Gah, that's gonna suck.
