Great Day for pickings

Today was great, had a few good leads for work at the job fair and spotted an abandoned trolley while finding a parking lot so another $1 into the fund.
Then after dinner while hunting for desserts, we were walking pass a kid that came out of a store and dropped a coin and accidently kicked it under the nut cart, he looked around for a bit and just walked off so she started to look for it and found it at the corner of the cart, she said she was gonna give it back to the kid but then shoved me into cold storage saying jokingly it was "to avoid seeing the kid"... haha but in truth was just to do some grocery shopping :P

So today its $1 each for us! Woop!

Time and Its Relative Nature

Over a belated birthday dinner with my friends, the topic of time came up and we were talking about how much time has passed since we've known each other, its been 7 years since I first got to know the birthday boy and he's like the youngest to my group of friends.
We got into the nature of how time seems to fly now and the idea of why it seems that way, rather than before when we all had school or some form of measure of the year.
It seems now that we all kinda have work or are looking for work, everything just seems so... mundane?
But maybe its just me?
Not too sure why, maybe its with work being so slow and all that's why I feel this way... I'm not complaining about anything, but it isn't amazing either anyway.
O well.. ranting is therapeutic.

More from the bunny

Today has been really tiresome, first my dad tells me that the home phone line has not been working for the past week... so I had to call the telephone people and booked a timing for their technician to come down. They said 2-6 but those idiots didn't even call up to tell us they were here or to check if the line was ok on our end, it wasn't... called them again to give them a piece of my mind because I waited for them! Now their gonna come by again tomorrow morning to fix the damned thing, hopefully they get it done... the weird thing is that even though the line is dead, my ADSL is still working perfectly fine..

Went to pick her up after her class and go look for some office supplies, she found another $0.10 outside the Pet Safari at Vivocity. It was tucked right at a corner and I was surprised that she even saw it. Guess the bunny is treating her better now.

Started with $128.20$130.20

$0.10 from her

Updates for the past 10 days

Been in china for the past 10 days for a business meeting, had the scare of the Japan quake and Tsunami hit when I was there. Really scary stuff especially when the nuclear reactors exploded...

Good news for the fund thou, found more money in the form of a cash card when I was at the airport before I was leaving for china, checked and it has $6.75 in it so in it goes.*edit* it seems that there is a $2 deposit on the card so I'm just gonna refund it and get it as well! So an extra $2!

She found thirty cents more before I left and messaged while I was in China to let me know that she found more money in the school library while checking out some books, a dollar coin and a five cent coin.

I guess the metal rabbit is really starting to shake its bob-tail(according to her) and money keeps coming out.

Started with $120.10

Ended with $128.20$130.20
$1.35 from her
$6.75$8.75 from him

Wish me Luck and pray for those in Japan right now.
