Steve's Psycho Sister

HOLY FUCK

Never in my life have I ever been talked to the way Steve's sister has to me tonight.

She just went off on me for no fucking reason like in the most disrespectful, cocky way EVER. I seriously feel like I was being talked to by a 14 year old girl.

I always gave her the benefit of the doubt whenever my friends would tell me that they think that she's a bitch (I thought well, they don't really hang out with her so they don't really know her) but they totally proved me wrong tonight.

**********

Steve and I went to the Auto Show in Vancouver earlier (honestly the first real date we've had a in a long time) and afterwards we went out to dinner with our friends and went back to Steve's house. Steve was too tired to drop me off at my house (he worked the morning shift 7AM - 3PM) So we went back to his place.

 Best ramen I've had in a long long time and some macarons

Japanese Parfait

It was a great date, we haven't been out in so long so it was nice to go out and just hang out with our friends.

Then we went to his place and we tried settle in and then his sister just starts freaking out in Korean at Steve, I got no idea wtf is going on. Then she comes into his room and looks at me and says to me in the most cocky/bitch voice I've ever heard and says to me:

"Amanda let me ask you something, like, why are you here? and Don't say its because Steve wants you here"

I'm kind of like wtf? never been a problem before so why the hell is this coming up now? and Steve does want me here so what am I supposed to say? I didn't know they had such a problem with it cause they never said anything. So I was pretty taken aback so I said "So?" LOL like wtf am I supposed to say? It totally caught me off guard.

They're all pissed off that I come over to hang out/sleep with Steve and I don't pay their fucking rent and that I don't say Hi to his mom or sister when I come over (I'll say Hi if they're not sleeping or not doing something so wtf) Anyway here is how the conversation went:

Sister: Amanda let me ask you something, like, why are you here? And don't say its because Steve wants you here

Me: So?

Sister: Don't just say so, why are you here? you're here like every day --> (I'm not though lol)

Me: Does that really matter?

Sister: Yes it does, You come here and do nothing

Me: Well when Steve needs help I come over to help him

Sister: Well that's great you're a good girlfriend but that doesn't explain why you're here and by the way I'd appreciate it if you would stop calling my dog, dog, she has a name, its Monet.

Me: She's a freaking dog! (lol IS THIS REALLY THE ISSUE? - She doesn't even take care of the dog, she only puts food in the damn bowl and doesn't even walk her or anything. Hell I walk that dog more than she does)

Me: I only come here when Steve wants me to help him with something

Sister: Well it'd be nice if you would come in and say hi to me or my mom, its his mother have some respect.

Me: I don't want to interrupt you guys when you're doing something

Sister: Don't you have any manners? (Hypocrite)

Me: I do, obviously you're the one that doesn't have any

Then I got really pissed off when she started saying that I have no manners when she's the one that came into his room and just started saying it the way she did. Had she actually came in with a polite tone and was just like "hey just to let you know, we'd appreciate it if you would stay home more often" instead of going the route that she went, I would've been more understanding.

Fucking hell anyway, I ended up calling her a bitch and a cunt LOL but she was definitely acting like one so yeah.

So! His sister - I've never really written a full on long post on her. So let's talk about it:

His sister went to McGill University in Montreal and when I told my friend a long time ago when I first started dating Steve about him he asked me if his sister was Lucifer (name changed, but its actually close to her real name lol) I said yes, he said "oh I don't like her, I used to tutor them in english when they first came to Canada and she was a bitch" I thought to myself well she was like 10 or something when they met and its been like 8/9 years, people can change within that time but boy did he prove me wrong!

Fast forward to now, Obviously things didn't change and she didn't mature. She speaks in the most condescending way, a lot even to waitresses and my friends. I'm actually surprised she has a boyfriend (not surprised she doesn't have many friends) but then again she's only using him to get expensive gifts, when I asked her if she thinks they'll get married she said no. So I was kind of like why string him along then? Just cause you want expensive gifts? Cut him loose so he can go and find a nice girl he can go and settle down with. I really don't get where she gets this cocky/arrogant attitude from (probably his mom)

I hung out with Steve and two of my friends at the Lonsdale Quay once and she wanted to be driven home, so she came to meet us there and the moment she came and started talking they hated her LOL cause she was so arrogant and rude. If her home life translated to her work life she would be fired so fast, unless her boss is a douche too lol.

Anyway she's one of those self entitled princess types, whatever she wants she basically gets, she's always been daddy's girl. Whenever she posts things on Instagram its always prissy things and she doesn't really live well within her means, spends money on useless crap just so she can look rich. I really hope she gets some bad karma for being the way she is.

Its funny how people think that if they go to church it makes them a good person and therefore they can treat everyone else like crap.

**********

Well I asked Steve to drop me off cause I didn't want to deal with that bullshit but then later on he came to pick me up so we could talk. We went to Mcdonalds and asked me what my expectations were from his family, honestly? I don't have any lol I don't expect them to do anything for me but of course they have expectations from me.

What are my expectations in a relationship though? I don't really care for family economics to me marriage isn't "the joining of 2 families" as Steve's mom thinks it is. To me its the joining of two life partners who want to be happy and want to experience life together. In his family they really emphasize old fashion ideals above love and happiness.

So where is this relationship going? Well, we'll just have to see tomorrow shall we?

School is over!

So my 1 month practicum is over and the debrief is done! Which officially means I AM DONE SCHOOL! That also means I am officially a certified MLA >.< (medical lab assistant)

Let's talk about why I chose this program:

I started school in August, I decided to become an MLA because I was tired of going to school for something that would have taken me like 3 more years and I really don't want to study that much anymore. I need to work, I can't live the student life anymore. I'm 25 and got no money saved so I need to start getting ahead.

It would take too long if I decided to continue on with my degree, not only that it doesn't even guarantee me a job. A friend of mine finished her Kinesiology degree and couldn't find a job, fast forward a few months and she went to Edmonton to study physiotherapy because its way too competitive here. So I decided I'll go back to school now and then upgrade to something else later.

I'm not going to tell you the name of the school, if you really want to know you can email me lol. Let's just say I chose to go to a private college to be an MLA (cost a fortune >.< and I had to get a student loan)

The program was about 8 months? I can't math! If I chose to go to VCC I would have had to wait 2 years on their waiting list to get in and then do their 8 month program on top and that was something I really didn't want to do, I might as well should've finished getting my degree had I gone that route. Some of the other private schools also had a 2 year waiting list and I was super lucky that I got in when I did.

Class Start!

The way the courses work in this program was you just do one at a time and the minimum passing mark was 70%. The first week was just orientation (they want to give you study tips and other tips to succeed in school) The two weeks after that was typing and learning how to use microsoft word, excel, powerpoint. 

Then came the big classes Medical Terminology and Anatomy and Physiology, I seriously thought I wouldn't survive these classes. There were tests everyday and I honestly thought I would fail those classes. But I powered through and passed! The teachers are absolutely amazing they really want you to succeed and they make it quite engaging lol. But it got to the point that I was so stressed out and my period came 2 weeks early O..O

Anyway because we're with the same group of people throughout the whole program you form a family type relationship with everyone, there were a few quiet people but they were still really sweet.

Practicum

This is the part where the school needs to improve on, practicum placements and how they organize them. We didn't find out where we were going until a few days before our practicum started (we got our placements on a Thursday and had to go to practicum on Monday) but before then a few of the out of town students really really needed to find out if they were going back home or not (some had to find a place to live) and they were given their placements like a few weeks in advance (not a lot of time to find a new place to live)

Anyway I was lucky that I got offered a job on my practicum (I was actually offered 2 lol but I stuck with the one closer to home) I don't start till they contact all my references and stuff which I hope is soon cause I want to start making some $$. Some of my classmates weren't so lucky with getting jobs right away but they'll get there soon enough!

Future?

So what does the future hold for me? Well.. I want to go back to school eventually, I'm thinking of going back to be a cardio tech but I'm not sure if I really want to because I know the industry is flooded with Cardio Techs at the moment... but I shall see. For now I'll work and save some money!

Nature Republic - Moroco Ghassoul Pore Pack Update

A long awaited update

I've been meaning to update some previous posts but with not much downtime its kind of hard to do. Now that school is done (at least the theory portion of it) I finally have some time to post things. Although, I haven't been purchasing many products the past few months (poor student budget >.<) so I shall start updating the old shitty posts that I crappily wrote lol.

**********

So, I waited until a time where my skin was really shitty lol because this product has the best affect on my skin when its at its worst lol. As I'm writing this, my skin is super oily, I have tons of clogged pores and a considerable amount of redness in my skin.

 so hawt

You can see how uneven the texture of my skin is in this picture (bumps in my skin because of my clogged pores) and some redness, not much shine due to lighting? lol but my skin is pretty oily.

I tend to use this product before I get my period (my skin is at its worst during this time) or once a week if I feel that my skin needs a boost.

Yeah.. I've had this product for a long time so it can get super messy lol

I haven't used any other clay mask since I have been using this (either too poor or can't find one with a decent price) but I'm really happy about this product.

Spread Out

Spreads out smoothly and smells so good (although as I mentioned before the scent can be a bit overwhelming) At times I feel like when I first apply the product, it kind of burns LOL but its not bad. I feel like it dries out your skin just a bit so make sure you apply toner and moisturizer afterwards.

I tried looking online to see if I could repurchase the same one, but it seems that either my searching skills suck or they don't make this product anymore. Nature Republic does make a clay pack still but its called the Hawaiian Fresh Clay Pack, not entirely sure if its the same one but I will purchase it to see if it is.

Let me know if you can find this product online somewhere >.< but let me know if you know where I can repurchase this online :)
