Suck It Copper

It's total crunch time and instead of studying I'm blogging. Don't worry, studying is definitely on my list of things to do tonight/all week.

I graduate in 18 days. Eighteen fricking days. I can't even begin to comprehend how fast that is going to go by. It doesn't quite seem real yet aside from this buttload of work. We finished our final chapter test yesterday and in one week we have our final exam... which I have yet to actually study for since we were still doing other tests and I was putting forth an effort to study for those.

On Thursday I went and donated blood and thankfully this time around I felt great. I ate a lot during the day and drank a lot of water so no puking for me! Yay! I went home and took it easy for the rest of the night but then went to work as normal on Friday morning. I naturally have a lower iron level it seems since the last few times I've donated my iron levels were on the lower end of the spectrum. I fail the first test but pass the second one. I could definitely feel the lack of iron on Friday at work because I nearly fainted numerous times. I tried to take it easy as possible but unfortunately it was a really busy day with lots to do. Instead of going home at the end of the day and going to bed I decided to stick with the original plan of going out with Lisa and Jamie. I had booked a "night off" from the insanity. Lisa has been seeing this guy named Dan and he has a band called "Waiting For Sunday." We picked up a few cheap tickets and went down to the Bourbon for some drinks and good music.



Spilled Drinks.


So inappropriate haha. Not sure why but we were doing this all night...


The ever-so-gorgeous Jamie.




This picture makes me go "awe" everytime.



... Where as this picture makes me laugh everytime. Lisa looks like she has a total anorexic arm haha.


Lisa and Dan.



So... sidetrack storytime: Last week we had a substitute instructor who really wanted someone to change their hair. He told me I should bleach out my shaved patch. Me being me didn't really give a shit and said sure since I was the salon coordinator and wasn't doing anything anyways. Yeah, long story short, I looked bald, it was aaaaawful. So we had to fill the hair with a colour but I couldn't go back to dark since you can't put my dark colour on a blonde without the colour going muddy, so I settled for red and fixed it this past Sunday. Ugh, the guys at work were calling me pumpkin patch hahaha.


Saturday morning I woke up and sounded like a man, as per ushe after a night out. I didn't feel too bad though, tired but not super hungover or anything. I ate a breakfast sandwich and was fine in terms of hangover but thanks to my stupidity and having lost a pint of blood a day and a half prior I was definitely feeling weird. I couldn't focus on anything all day, I walked around like a complete zombie, and I would barely even be able to hold a conversation. At one point I actually sat down at the sink, put my hand where you would normally put your neck, and then laid my head down on my hand and started to fall asleep. My instructor told me I should just go home but there was an hour left of class so it was pointless really seeing as how it would ruin my perfect attendance record. (Yeah I'm a total school nerd.)

Well, I should have just went home because the next morning I ended up being late anyways... thanks to being pulled over and being given a massive speeding ticket. Now, funny story time. So I'm driving along, I get completely busted by a BIKE cop, not even a real cop, a fucking bike cop who was parked on the sidewalk hiding behind a bus-stop. He literally ran into traffic to stop everyone then proceeded to tell me to pull over. I was in a bad mood already since I woke up to 25 emails that informed me I had a virus and then this. Not only was I speeding but I still have my N and didn't have it up. Ticket me again officer, I like it when you rape me up the ass like that.

So at this point I already knew I was fucked so I didn't bother trying to argue it, but what he did next pissed me off SO bad I actually started to lose it a little. It was Sunday morning, which is our mornings where we get to do eachothers hair for 2 hours. 2 hours is a lot of time to kill so typically I don't put on makeup at home I just sleep in a little longer and then do my makeup and hair when I get to class. Apparently, when I'm not wearing makeup and don't have my hair done I look like I was out all night at the bar or something because he proceeded to ask me if I'd been out drinking the night before, to which I replied "no" because I hadn't been.

He went on to ask "When was your last drink?" and I was like "I had one beer at dinner yesterday around 6pm, I wasn't out drinking last night." He responds, "I'll be right back." and goes to his stupid little bike and pulls out a breathalizer. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!

It's 9am on a fucking Sunday and just because I was speeding and look like shit you're going to give me a breathalizer.

At this point I lost my patience. I already knew I was going to get the ticket, I didn't want to even argue it because there was absolutely no way anyone could have gotten out of that ticket and I was late for school so I just wanted to get out of there as fast as possible, but then he has to go and pull this stupid stunt. So he comes back and stands there playing with this thing and he goes "I'm going to have you blow into this and hold for blah blah blah blah *goes on to explain how it works*," so I finally interrupted and went "Are you fucking kidding me, well lets do it then because I'm in a hurry and I already know what that test will tell you." So he leans it into my window and I blow into the stupid thing for however many seconds as he goes "keep going, keep going, keep going." I wanted to punch him in the face. Then he looks at it and it obviously tells him I have a zero blood alcohol level and he goes "okay you're good." ... to which I not-so-politely responded with "Yeah, just like I told you the first fucking time."

So he brought my ticket back and I went on my way. Argh I'm still pissed off about the breathalizer thing. I want to find a way to bring that up because he literally had ZERO reason to believe that I'd been drinking the night before outside of the fact that I looked like shit. I didn't smell like alcohol, there wasn't any alcohol in the car, nothing. So that was complete and total bullshit. Talk about an insult though, "oh she looks like shit, she must have been drunk last night." Asshole.

Anyways, so needless to say I now owe $477 bucks to the pigs. I am however going to try to dispute it and hope that the ratard has something better to do with his day than to show up in court. If that fails, I have a few other things I'm going to try haha.

So... tomorrow I have to start work at 5am and work until 10, then I come home, get ready, and go to the salon to start my work experience. I have Thursday and Friday off of work but will be doing work experience at the salon from 12pm to 8pm. Then I will be coming home to study for my final exam that's on Monday.

On Saturday morning my new roommate moves in... who, by the way, is ridiculously good looking. I hadn't met him yet before I told him he could move in (crazy right?) so when I went to meet him I saw two guys standing there, one white guy, one brown guy. His name is Miguel so I automatically assumed he'd be the brown guy... yeah, turns out he was the hot white guy. I'm hoping he's got a girlfriend, is gay, or is a big fan of Ed Hardy, but based on my first initial impression - he's none of those. Nah it'll be all fine and dandy I'm sure.

So that's about all that's happened this week. Now you won't hear from me for at least another week, maybe even two. I can't even begin to tell you how badly I want to be done school. I'm exhausted and miss having even one day off every two weeks.

Over here no matter what the reason for being pulled over you have to be breathalised....
I was pulled over at 6am on a monday morning for a "random breath test" bastards!!

You were going over 100 in a 50 zone! Why would you even disupte it!

Marlee said...

Alicia that's crazy! What a waste of everyones time!

Danielle, if I dispute it and the cop doesn't show up to court I don't have to pay the ticket. You can dispute any ticket you want, even if you're 100% guilty of everything on there and all of the information written on there is correct. Worse case scenario I have to pay the fine. So there's really nothing to lose here, I might as well try and hope that the cop has something better to do than go to court that day!

Smelly Danielly said...

Yea, but if you did the crime you should pay the fine.

Marlee said...

I have no problem paying the fine, I'd just rather not pay it if I don't reallllly have to haha. Like I said, I fully admit fault, I won't deny it in court either, but in the slight chance that the cop doesn't show up then it saves me 500 bucks, and if he does show up then it at least delays everything so I have more time to pay for the fine.

To be perfectly honest, had he not given me a breathalizer I would have just paid the fine without even questioning it... but since he was being a complete dick about everything and decided to give me a breathalizer when I clearly had not been drinking and that he had complete unfounded reason to believe I had been, I feel it's necessary to be a dick back.
