A FUNNY THING HAPPENED @ WORK



TODAY IN DRIVE THRU, ( I WORK AT MCDONALD'S) AN ELDERLY WOMAN PLACED AN ORDER. SHE PULLED UP TO MY WINDOW AND EXPLAINED THAT SHE HAD TO GET HE PURSE OUT OF THE BACK SEAT. SHE THEN RETRIEVED THE PURSE AND I NOTICED IT WAS A REALLY PRETTY GREEN COLOR AND I COMMENTED THAT I LIKED IT. SHE SAID, "MY BAG?" I WAS LIKE "YES." THEN SHE TOOK HE TIME GET HER MONEY AS I TOOK ORDERS. I TOOK HER MONEY AND THIS IS WHERE IT GETS FUNNY. SHE PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS HERE FIRST TIME ORDERING @ JACK IN THE BOX'S DRIVE THRU AND SHE WAS SO EXCITED! I TOLD HER WELL YOU STILL CAN DO SO, BECAUSE THIS ISN'T JACK IN THE BOX, THIS IS MC DONALD'S. SHE THEN LAUGHED AND WAS LIKE OH MY GOSH. I TOLD HER TO HAVE A NICE DAY. THEN I STARTED TO TAKE ANOTHER ODER AND I WAS CRACKIN' UP. THE CUSTOMER ASKED ME WHAT THE JOKE WAS AND I TOLD THEM AND THEY WERE LAUGHING TOO! THIS IS WHAT MAKES MY JOB GO FASTER AND MAKES ME LIKE THE REGULARS. ALTHOUGH THE WOMAN WASN'T A REGULAR OBVIOUSLY (HAHA) IT STILL MADE MY DAY TO LAUGH LIKE THAT. I JUST HAD TO POST ABOUT IT WHEN I GOT HOME.

INTRO/ RANDOMNESS


HELLO! WELL TO STRART OFF WITH I AM ANNETTE. AND  THIS IS MY BLOG ABOUT MY EVERYDAY LIFE AND JUST ANYTHING I WANT TO GET OUT OF MY SYSTEM. THERE REALLY HASNT BEEN MUCH GOING ON THIS WEEK AND I DID NOT KNOW WHAT I SHOULD REALLY SPEAK ABOUT BUT I KNEW THAT I AT LEAST HAD TO START THIS BLOG SINCE I HAVE KIND OF PROMOTED IT ALONG WITH MY OTHER TWO BLOGS THAT I AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON.

I ALSO TAKE PART IN A COLLABORATION EFFORT BLOG TALKING ABOUT KPOP. I WRITE MOSTLY KDRAMA/ ASIAN MOVIE, AND TRENDS REVIEWS. BASICALLY ALSO MY EXPERIENCES IN THOSE FIELDS. NOT SAYING I AM AN EXPERT, BUT I HAVE REALLY GOTTEN INTO THE KOREAN CULTURE AS OF LATE THRU KPOP AND I AM HOOKED. SO IF U ARE INTERESTED IN CHECKING IT OUT PLEASE DO SO.

IT IS KPOT247@TUMBLR.COM

NOW MY OTHER BLOG IS A LITTLE MORE ON THE PERSONAL SIDE. I AM A POET AND I HAVE BEEN WRITING POETRY SINCE HIGH SCHOOL. AS OF 2012 I HAD A POEM PUBLISHED IN A BOOK CALLED "STARS IN OUR HEARTS" WITH A WHOLE SLEW OF OTHER POETS. THAT WAS ONE OF MY CROWNING MOMENTS AND I ASO DID SOME OPEN MIC NIGHTS IN MY AREA. A PERSONAL HEARTFELT MOMENT WAS WHERE ONE WOMAN LOVE A POEM THAT I RECITED SHE CAME UP TO ME AND TOLD ME HOW IT TOUCHED HER SOOO MUCH. I HAD WRITTEN THE POEMS ON INDEX CARDS AND SIGNED THEM JUST IN CASE. SO I GAVE IT TO HER. SHE WAS THRILLED AND THE NEXT TIME I CAME TO RECITE MY POETRY SHE TOLD ME SHE HAD IT FRAMED AND IT WAS HANGING ON HER WALL. IT MADE ME FEEL SOOO GOOD TO KNOW I HAD TOUCHED SOMEONE WITH MY WORK. IF THAT INTERESTS YOU PLEASE CHECK IT OUT @  STRAIGHTFROMTHEHEART@BLOGGER.COM



SO LETS GET ON WITH THE LITTLE NEWS IN MY LIFE THIS WEEK:

WE HAVE A PLUMBING ISSUE THAT IS PRETTY FRUSTRATING BECAUSE THE PIPE IS TOTALLY BROKEN. THE PIPES ARE 50 YEARS OLD OR SO. SO THAT MEANS IT HAS TO BE ALL DUG UP AND THE WHOLE THING REPLACED. THEN THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHERE THE PIPES EXACTLY WERE AND IT TURNS OUT THEY GO ALL OVER THE PLACE. THEY WERE GOING TO START LAST WEEK, BUT NOW IT IS RAINING AND I DONT KNOW WHEN THE WORK WILL BE STARTED.

PLUS IT IS FRUSTRATING TO REXPLAIN ALL OF THIS DAILY TO MY GRANDMOTHER WHO HAS DEMENTIA/ALZHEIMERS. I HELP TO TAKE CARE OF HER. SO YOU CAN IMAGINE HOW STRESSFUL IT CAN GET.

ANOTHER THING TO KNOW ABOUT ME IS I AM CURRENTLY STUDYING TO BE A ENGLISH TEACHER TO TEACH OVERSEAS AND I HOPE THIS HAPPENS ASAP. BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE I HAVE ALL MY DUCKS IN A ROW SO I DONT MAKE ANY MISTAKES. BEEN TAKING COURSES ONLINE AND SAVING MONEY AS WELL.

ALSO ON TWITTER A LOT AND DON'T YOU LOVE IT WHEN A FAMOUS OR SEMI-FAMOUS PERSON COMMENTS OR FAVORITES/RETWEETS YOUR TWEET?
IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME SO MANY TIMES THIS WEEK THAT I FEEL KIND OF SPEACIAL, HAHA.

SEE I TELL YA KIND OF A SLOW WEEK. WHEN I HAVE INTERESTING THINGS TO BLOG  ABOUT I WILL POST. PLEASE FEEL TO COMMENT, ASK QUESTIONS, OR EVEN WHAT DO U WANT ME TO BLOG ABOUT ON HERE? I WILL DO THE BEST THAT I CAN.

WEDNESDAYS WILL BE THE POST DATES UNLESS THERE IS SOMETHING I CANNOT WAIT ON.

UNTIL NEXT TIME, MY FRIENDS <3
