My feet hurt.

Today was the day I chose to wear heels. However, today at work (I work at Stein Mart, shoe dpt.) I had to bend down a lot, inspecting shoes. Ow, ow ow. I fear these red marks won't go away! I did A LOT of work today. Yesterday, which was my first day of work, was cleaning (-_- I am not a maid) and today I had to match up colors of shoes. I ended up switching out a lot of the shelves' cards with each other and moving around shoes. I know a million different brands of shoes now - Italian Shoe Maker, Anne Klein, RL, Unisa, Bandolino, Danelle.

"Sisters" are shoes that are the same brand and style but different colors. "Cousins" are shoes that are the same brand but different styles. "Sisters" need to be together at all times but "Cousins" cannot be together. Weird, right. Well I guess that makes sense. Today I spotted some "Cousins" next to each other and moved them myself. Instead of moving the entire shelf as the other co-workers do, I simply take out the plastic cardholders and switch them. I don't know if they have never done that before or what, but I am not taking out any more shelves because they're kind of difficult to wrench out. I told my co-worker F that and she was really proud of me!

The job is really not bad. I basically walk around inspecting stuff all day and answer random questions. $6.50/hour is not that bad. It's above minimum wage! Maybe I'll get a raise but I doubt it. I'm leaving August 18 or so for CMU!

I really need to figure out how to cross-post between Xanga and Blogger. Nobody posts in Xanga much anymore, so I really don't know why I keep up with Xanga anyway. :) I also need to write more meaningful entries in both Xanga and Blogger.

You know how I'm always advocating writing in journals (real life ones)? Haha, I need to update my real ones ASAP because I tend to fall behind 3 days. You know what, a lot can happen in 72 hours. A lot than I can forget. :
Well well this summer has been the summer of movies for me. I've watched more movies this summer than I have all of 2005. Sad, huh. Here's a list of summer 2006 movies I've seen:

• The Princess Bride


• Taxi Driver


• Princess Mononoke


• X-Men 2


• X-Men 3


• United 93


• Zoolander

I also saw parts of Old School again (love that movie) and parts of Bridget Jones' Diary 2 - I had no idea that Hugh Grant is the "bad" character in the story. :O Aw, the Pride and Prejudice story...

Zoolander's plot is so dumb but Ben Stiller is so hilarious. :D Will Ferrell had his moments too as Mugatu (what the heck). I LAUGHED for a minute when Christine Taylor's character admitted she was the fat kid in school in 7th grade, and Zoolander (Ben Stiller) replies: "...EW!"

United 93 is a heartwrenching movie to watch because you know what's going to happen, but I think the movie did a good job portraying the confusion and heartache that day. It made me mad watching the movie because the U.S. goverment was basically all talk, little action.

I've also been reading a lot of novels from the library. One author that I have found charming is Alexander McCall Smith. He's living in Scotland right now - I love his satirical novels.

Now I'm going to go read and probably watch Elephant the movie. I heard it was really good and it won the 2003 Cannes Film Festival award (Best Director?). I'm getting a lot of recommendations from my friend DAVID LEE so thanks, David.
