Cell Phones, Policemen, and Guitar Hero!


I've decided that my new home should be at the Wireless Wave in Cloverdale Mall! As we all know I broke my phone last Saturday, so now my entire weekend has been consumed by getting a new one. The first one I purchased was an LG NEON blue, bad decision! The phone was defective it kept overheating and the battery was dieing every twenty minutes. So yesterday I returned it for the black version of the phone. Well this one had the same problem with the battery, and once it died and I turned it back on it told me to insert the right SIM! I ventured back over to the Wireless Wave and returned that one for a smaller, cheaper, less technically advanced cellular device which is working perfectly fine!

I'm sort of looking at this as a lesson well learned. Never throw your phone at a wall in a fit of rage and expect getting a new one to be easy! It was like the phone gods were looking down on me and laughing in fit's of hysteria. Another lesson I learned is patience... Every time I have gone to wireless wave there has been a huge line and I have had to wait for at at least thirty minutes, some times an hour. However I always held my composure and greeted the teller politely until they sassed me and I began to become one of those "difficult" customers.

Now that I'm looking back on this weekend I'm realizing that my patience is maturing. Yesterday I was pulled over by an under cover policeman who claimed I had run a red light. As a result of my calm attitude and explanation he did not fine me the ticket of one hundred and eighty dollars and three demerit points. I also think he was easy on me because he saw my track record and thought "there's no way in heck this girl will be able to afford insurance if I give her this ticket". I was very grateful to the policeman and told him I learned my lesson and that "when we see and ember light we stop" in one of those innocent childlike voices!

All in all considering the amount of B.S I've had to put up with this weekend I'd say it was a very successful one. It was also very enjoyable, I got to spend time with M and C, and I went to Curry's to get some art supplies, played a little guitar hero and slept quite well! Here's to another great day tomorrow!
