So today at work we did our stock take. I hate stock take. There's always ONE person who completely messes up and someone has to do it all over again. Today it was me. Technically it wasn't my fault and no one had to clean up my mess but I was told from management to count the quantity of jewellery on the shop floor. To be honest, I didn't think it was a strange request so I got on with it. I even dragged Eyesha in to help me but then as I was doing the Peony bay (the girly, pearl like jewellery) and I had finished the bay, then a customer came over and brought a basket full of jewellery.
So I panicked and thought 'oh crap do I have to do the whole bay again?' And that's when I realised my task made no sense so I shared my view with the lovely Gemma and she of course said it was bull and to stop doing it. At that point the assistant manager came in, ready for his eye watering 3 - midnight shift and when I told him what I had spent the last 4 hours doing, he was kinda pissed. That also confused me, seeing as in his note he had left for me it had said count the quantity of jewellery.

Ok, so I took my kids class to watch Boroughs United at Hackney Empire. You know when a show gets worse every year? Most of the dance groups could not stay in time and there was this MC group with these two boys that were doing the chorus stuff MC'S do like the 'yeah' 'put your hands up' stuff over an already recorded song. Basically, I was listening to a song playing off a cd and watching two guys shuffle about. The presenter said that there were loads of them who didn't show up, which makes me wonder, why did they???
Eccsentric, Soul Sistas and Twist and Pulse were good, oh yeah and the bashment rapping kids group. Overall: A painful show but my kids loved it!
MYSELF needs to be a comedy club. Highlight had to be Tanya saying 'cucumbers don't taste like water, they taste see through.' Oh dear!!
My Uncle Bakare is running to be the first president of Nigeria and I think he has a likely chance of winning. My Dad wants to move if he wins. I'm not. Obviously.
Starting on my 2nd book of my series. Very exciting. Still on the lookout for work experience in a publishing company of the week of the 14th so fingers crossed something comes through.
Finally watched Black Swan. All I can say is. Wow.
