Icky, Dirty People

So, just lately I've realized that many people I am close with do NOT wash their hands after going to the bathroom! How gross is that.

PEOPLE, WASH YOUR HANDS AFTER YOU GO TO THE BATHROOM.

I also highly reccomend cleaning the toilet, if there is anything visible on the toilet seat, then I think it is time to clean it.

And how do girls drip on the seat????
I'll never understand this, at least not in the comfort of your own home. WIPE! Then stand up.

I'm really tired and grossed out by all this poor toilet etiquette surrounding the holiday season!
Ba hum bug!

The Group Interview

So a couple days ago I had a group interview. I am not very good at interviews, so put me in a group interview situation and I am even worse!! Not my point. My point is that: at this interview were 6 people, 3 of whom already worked for the company that I was interviewing with and therefore already new the 5 person interview panel quite well. I'm thinking this isn't really fair. The other thing I hate about group interviews is BIMBO"s! One of the girls was all like, " Oh my god, I totally love life! I love getting up in the morning and looking outside and seeing the sunshine! I love sunshine! I am such a bimbo! I'm like totally annoying!!" Okay, I may have added a little at the end, but really, does anyone really act like that in real life?
Maybe I should wait to post this until after I know I did not get a second interview, just incase!
I guess I can say what I like, it's been a week and they left a message, I phoned them back and still haven't heard back from them. My assumption, I didn't get the job.
As for the city one, I don't know why I bother. I don't have experience so I can't get a job, I can't get a job because I don't have experience. Blah!!
For some reason this picture came up when I Googled that last statement.

The Percentages

I'm sorry to all my faithful readers, I have definitely been slacking on the blogging. It seems being a fitness instructor takes up 80% of my time, yet only pays me for about 20% of it. Now that extra 20% is taken up by me applying for jobs. How exciting. Anybody looking to hire someone?? No evenings and weekends of course! But seriously, hire me.
This morning I got to drive across the city at 6 am to find out no one else wanted to get out of bed at 6 am, make that 5 am. So I went back to bed. How frustrating.

Great new Beastie Boys Tune!

The whole album is instrumental which is pretty sweet because some of my favorite Beastie Boys songs are just that! Clea, I am slightly jealous, but I know, I had my chance.

The new tattoo

So this is my new tattoo, it's awesome, I love it. No, it is not henna, it is the real thing!
Anyway, the reason I chose a tree. It is the 'Seattle Yoga Tree' studio symbol. I love Seattle. I love yoga. I love nature, which is full of trees and the tree just kind of symbolizes all that . Trees are grounded, growing, and grand. Greg thinks it makes me look cuter! But it is really starting to get itchy! NO SCRATCHING!

To my few faithful readers

I suck. I have really just not had anything happen worth blogging about. That and I didn't have an internet for about a week. Here is a little entertainment for you while you're waiting for my inspiration.
Today I had to teach a fitness class called "variety pump"; before I agreed to teach I asked, " is this a step class, because if it is I don't want to teach it". For those of you who don't know , I have no coordination (oh, wait, everyone I know knows that). I warned the class of this before I started teaching, but it didn't seem to matter what I did, the class would turn it into a super coor. move. They had crazy arm movements and I had no idea what was going on. I had to completely take them off the step. It was pretty funny.
That was a lame storey, the point is I don't like step!!

Yah for the internet!

Have no fear, the internet is here. I can blog and facebook again! Life is good.

Change of Plans

Isn't it ironic how when things finally look like they are going to be settled...they aren't. I was accepted into all 3 of the programs I applied to at the University of Waterloo. Looks like we shouldn't unpack all of our boxes this time (or at least keep the boxes). Anyway the program starts in September so I guess it's good I have the summer off (kind of). I guess I'll put the kids on hold again.

Identities Withheld

Well we had our wonderful friend Zafira out to Canmore for the weekend. It was great; we saw some wild elephants on the highway coming into town and Zafira was really excited, they were all over! Then we spent some time packing for the move and spent some time feeding the local Cougars (They were cute little domestic Cougars that someone let go and now cover the town)
Zafira had a great time and ate lots!

Josh

Okay, I know Josh was just my barista at Koi, but I probably spent @ least a couple hours a week with him (because I spent sooo much time at Koi).
When he and his wife left to move to Montreal last week, I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to him and that really saddened me.
Last Thursday when I went into Koi, the owner, Phil, handed me a note that read: Our good friends Josh and Raya were in a car accident and passed away on Tuesday.
This really, really made me sad. For some reason it is really affecting me and I am having trouble not thinking about it. He was such a good guy and I can only imagine his wife was just as wonderful. His close friends must be really upset about their deaths. One of their friends wrote about them on his site:

They will be greatly missed. I just thought I would like to write something about this, a little depressing, but I guess it just kind of touches home when 2 people so similar to us pass away unexpectantly.
