THIS IS SUMMER!

Intro: Plug for 300!!! The DVD comes out on the 31st of July, definitely expect a party at the Healy Residence to celebrate this monumental occation. The MDew will be a-flowin' and I expect this to be a clutch gathering.

Anyways! Hi, it's me, Josh Healy. Most of you have not heard very much from me this summer, and I can explain! All I do is work and sleep so I have energy for work. When I'm not engaging in these stimulating and fun activities, I'm playing Rome: Total War or World of Warcraft (i know, i succumbed to the evil yet again.) Every Tuesday and Thursday I enjoy a nice bout of tennis at the Southgate Lyons Park with the Miz and a great mix of merry folk.

Okay, since there was a massive break between my last two posts and the last post was on a different topic, let's review. Since June 17th, I've basically been working every day, and not doing a whole lot. I've been enjoying the fireworks season, I think I went to Trenton, Wyandotte and Taylor, then I also went to the Elizabeth Park ones last weekend with John.

I haven't taken any vacations or anything, I went to Irish Hills awhile back for two days for a little merriment. A few lagers were drank, a little swimming was done, and a lot of respect was lost. Sounds like a pretty typical Irish Hills run to me! I have to take a second here to thank Jillian for hosting this fantastic time and the folks who came for making it a decent time.

Random tennis interjection: Susie Zammit and I played mixed doubles in the GR alumni tournament and sucked. Well I sucked, she was sweet. Anyways, that was another thing that I did in the mean time and in between time.

Life has been pretty typical since I started my job. By the hand of fate I ended up with a full time job cooking breakfast for executives of the AAA Headquarters. The job is not too bad now that I am in the full swing of it, and pretty good at it to boot. Some customers are beyond ridiculous with their requests, but for the most part my job is enjoyable if not sometimes a bit complicated.

I will go off on a tangent here about black women, specifically the ones I work with: they are some of the best and worst customers a person could have. The bad part for me was that my predecessor was a late-20's black man who loved to flirt with them, so that was a negative for me. The good part is that they love a polite young white boy so it balances out. Let me tell you though, if you ever get a job cooking for the same people every day, get the black women on your side. Even though they might make you want to kill someone when they hold up a line of 10 people with their nagging about the crispness of their bacon, if you have them on your side you will be in a pretty good position for most of your time there. I split them about 50% on the first day and have since worked back into their good graces for the most part, but those first few days were rough. But like I said, they are also often the best customers you have. I get more ridiculous compliments for random shit for black women I cook good for than you could believe.

This week I did Senior pictures, I already have them and they actually didn't turn out too bad.

Okay, so there is the recap on my life between the 17th of June and the 25th of July, so I will now turn to the present and future.

Work will continue for me until I think the week before school, so I will be occupied with that every Monday-Friday for the rest of summer.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Student Government had it's July meeting last Friday, and I have some updates for you. Student Government plans on making this school year unique and enjoyable, and we have actually started to take steps so our school isn't so fucking boring this year!

Homecoming:
Our theme this year is Casino Royale.

The confirmed location for HC is the GR gym, joy I know but the faculty and Junior moderator pretty much screwed our Juniors and finding a place became impossible.

Our t-shirt/hallway/board theme is Favorite European Country.
  • Seniors: Italy
  • Juniors: The British Isles
  • Sophomores: France
  • and the Freshman got defaulted Spain
Fall Sports Assembly:
Hopefully we will be able to hold it outside

We plan on doing some ridiculous Conestoga Wagon thing, more details on that when I understand wtf is going on.

The Month of October:
We will be hallway decorating for the month of October, so plan on pigs running around with hay stacks all around Senior hall.

We plan on having a dance and a "Scary Movie Night", which is kind of fulfilling the function of TGIF for the month of October, hopefully it will be fun.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alright, that is all for now, I hope you enjoyed reading as much as I liked writing it. Congrats to all of you blog subscribers, you get insider scoops on Student Government straight from your President himself, so good work reading my blog, and see you later!

Our theme's Italy, huh? Why not just make it "Anthony Fucking Maceri," while we're at it?

ok, first of all, i am SOOO glad that you now know what it's like to cook for people. But you dont get to chase all those lovely people around with a baseball bat, put avacado in their hair, or sing kareoke with them. (yes, i will bring up those nights till the day i DIE)

second, i hate homecoming. why do we even need a theme? i do not see the purpose. maybe like two people from every class actually has some real school spirit. or maybe i'm just cynical and hate highschool like that. and i hate the gym. HATE IT. if i didnt have my dress allready i would consider not attending the dance this fall. prom better be effing amazing is all i gotta say. did i here something about a boat on the detroit river...? anyone? anyone...??!

thirdly, i bummed i missed the cgs golf outing!!! i would have come if i knew about it sooner but alas i was out in novi running a crap load of errands. but there should be another outing. soon.

and lastly, who the hell does anthony thinks he is anyway??? jk, i wuv him. sorta.

Josh said...

okay firstly, third and last serve as adverbs already so you don't need to add "ly"

lolz

yes i cook. but i am a good eater, i do not bitch about my food. and for the record you are cynical and just hate high school like that.

the detroit star is well off limits, the faculty likes to cockblock our plans so yeah.

the golf outing was great, only n00bs missed it, lolol.

and anthony is a tool

@ Joshua: I will touch you like a fucking hurricane. You better get ready.

@ other person: Who does Anthony think that he is? Well, it's not so much as what he thinks, but more what his leigons of worshipers think.
