Thanksgiving Weekend!

Well, it's finally thanksgiving!! Im gonna be most likely heading up to my grandmas and having a feast of my own. I usually don't celebrate thanksgiving, but this thanksgiving, my grandma will most likely be making a big meal for everyone. We talk and enjoy ourselves while we are all there. The guys usually sit around the TV watchin the hockey game and having some beers, while the ladies usually sit at the dining room table, talking and have a coffee. This year I'm thankful for the friends I have and my family.

Random Topic #6 Being Ripped Off SUCKS!

Ok, well at work tonight, I was closing everything up, and then my waiter hands me a lousy 10 bucks for the night. Let me tell you why I think this is a rip off. A few nights before, I was working with only one waiter, and I made around 25 and it was a few more tables then than it was tonight. Tonight, after he handed me the 10, I started wondering... wtf, where's the rest?! So after I finish my work and about to call for my ride, I go looking for him... but it turns out he had already left. So I am definetly persuing this, cause as we all know, BEING RIPPED OFF SUCKS!!!

What money does to people...

Today I was at work finishing up some stuff before I got to head home and I walked up to a table with a woman looking for something before she could go. She had lost her glasses, and more times then none, when I vacuum at the end of the night, I find a lot of stuff underneath the table. That was a logical place to look, and of course, they were under the table. This was no problem for me to help her find them, but it hit me that when working in the restaurant business, you only tend to act kind to people just to try and squeeze a few more extra bucks out of their wallet. It sickens me sometimes how some waitors that I know go up to a table, act incredibly nice, then turn around walk into the kitchen, and start talking trash about them. Then I think to myself, I'm glad that I am not a two faced miserable prick like some people. I do things for other people without expecting anything in return, as should other people because when you expect something and you don't get it, it's a disappointment in the end.

The Pretender

Ahh, workin' away at this project for guitar class, though, all Im really doing is listening to a song over and over again.. and basing my analysis on it. Which is kinda awesome if you think about it. What other class would you be able to do something like this in... MATH?! Haha unlikely. Well, so far I've been listening to "The Pretender" by the Foo Fighters from their new album, "Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace." Which, just from this song alone, I'm wanting to go and buy the album. The Foo's have had a lot of awesome hits over the years, even when I was 7 and wasn't really into anything, I still remember listening to them. The Pretender, in my opinion is linked directly to Bush. It seems like the song is talking about how a leader sends his men to do all of the dirty work for him. Also, it talks about all of the enemies such as liberal and conservative, which is in the song. "Im what's left, Im what's right, Im the enemy." Just that message alone drives me to listen to the intensity of the song that the Foo Fighters have intentionally made to get to the general audience.

Halo 3!!

Well Halo 3 finally came out two days ago and I've been busy playing! ITS FREAKING AMAZING!!!!!!!! OMG. WHO THINKS THERES GONNA BE A HALO 4??!! and no i don't mean Halo Wars! Halo 3 is by far one of the greatest games ever made. And also, the relation with marathon.. It seems incredibly close, and Im starting to believe that Halo was based off of Marathon. Wouldn't doubt it.
