Well, tonight I had work until 10:30. I was on sales floor, but tonight was better than other nights; there wasn't too much of a mess so time went by slowly. I think I contracted pink eye at work because I suddenly had a feeling as though my right eye was watery and there was a bunch of gunk in it, I also keep rubbing it so it's a little sore now... Yeah, and it's been that way since. Poopy, oh well. That means no seeing people, because it is most likely contagious. =[ Gah! The feeling is so annoying!!
At work we discovered what we think is a racist Dora the Explorer backpack...don't ask...it's weird, but, yeah. The people I work with are nice and very social, so it's not hard to get along with them, everyone is interesting. Tonight when cleaning the isles/aisles (?), I was listening to two of the people making jokes since I'm too shy to make jokes of my own when they started cursing like crazy. Israel then looked at me and then looked at the lady and was like, "watch your language in front of this church lady!". That made me laugh, but their language wasn't annoying me or anything. I found that idea completely humorous though. So work was good tonight. All the while I was thinking that I could make a situation bad or good, it just depended on how I treated it. Since I don't like working sales floor, I've always been in a bad mood when I did it so my mood would be ruined for the entire day.
Also, on with life outside of my own little world, I heard about the earthquake that hit Haiti. I was looking at some pictures, and in some, there were pictures of groups from Britain, Taiwan, and the United States, going over to the Haitian islands to help out and support the people. It's really heart-warming to see a world set aside it's differences and unify for one noble cause. My heart goes out to those who lost their lives and their loved ones. I pray that God will give strength to those dealing with this disaster, and that somehow people will see Him and His will and a way for Him to still be glorified.
Yeah that's it...sleepy time!

"A Bend in the Road" by Nicholas Sparks. A bookreview.
Earlier today I finished yet another Nicholas Sparks book. A Bend in the Road is one of his older novels, and I, of course, really enjoyed it. I enjoy all of his books, haha, however, I suppose this book was not a favorite, compared to some of his other novels.
This book is the love story between Miles Ryan, a man who lost his wife, and Sarah Andrews, a woman who is struggling with a terrible divorce, but with a big twist in it....I'm not giving it away!
Anyway, I don't know what to say about this book, haha. It was good. It had the right amount of tragedy and the right amount of love story. On his site, Sparks said that he wrote "love stories" instead of "romance stories". With love stories, sometimes there isn't a happy ending, and with romance, there's always the expected happy ending that everyone wants. So, yeah, I think Sparks does a great job at writing love stories.
As for this novel, it's a definate must read! :D
