  My trip and my first day as a working joe!

  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.

  100th Blog

  Hello all

  Welcome to my 100th blog. The largest milestone (In my mind) I have reached during my time here on Gamespot. First let me thank all my friends for your positive comments and your support in all my previous blogs, because without you guys, I probably would have stopped after 1 So heres to you

  You guys probably noticed that I do not write blogs often..mostly for the fact that I am too busy. The little time I spend on Gamespot I try to spend commenting on all of your blogs so I leave mine till the end. If I havent commented on yours recently, I apologize. I have been away this past week and only got to comment on the few most recent blogs. I will speak more about my trip the next blog, as this blog is strictly a blog for me to bask in my glory

  I have made many friends here. Ive become close with some of you, lost some of you, and got some new friends haha. Either way, those who I am close to, you know who you are. Other friends I am close to, I speak to them through other mediums besides Gamespot. The point is, I made a lot of friends here, and all of you guys are special to me.

  There were a few times were I felt like leaving Gamespot. Specifically this past year with all the firings/quitting from the GS staff, but you guys, my friends, made me stay. So I thank you for keeping me here and I thank you for getting me up to this point.

  Thank you
