Another weekend bites the dust.

Hearing: Seether - Eyes of the devil

Another day another 3 cars...i think I've lost count of how many cars I've seen these past weeks! Nothing much is eventuating from it - most cars we see look like they have been accidents which their owners either wont fess up to or deny knowing anything about. Ho hum...another weekend bites the dust...

On a totally different note. Remember that hot guy my brother sold his motorbike to i mentioned in my previous post?? Well last week i nicked his number from my brothers mobile and after a day of debating what to write i sent him a message...I actually had to physically get my friend to press the send button though!! LOL!
But i didn't get a reply...its a shame. I kinda expected it though i hoped he would reply. Anyway at least i tried right?? My love life isn't exactly eventful these days so sometimes a girls gotta make the first move. But it isn't easy i can tell you that!!
A lot has been happening at work recently. Last Friday was a colleagues birthday. The boss took him and another guy out for lunch and they didn't come back for almost 3 hours!! Needless to say that when they did get back birthday boy was a tad tipsy. And that lasted till oh...the next 3 drinks. Another colleague decided she wanted to buy him a couple of drinks and they went out and managed to be back in time for the office drinks we usually have on Fridays about 4.30pm...Needless to say the guy was trashed! He started spilling drinks, hugging and kissing everyone and at one point he insisted on teaching the guys how to pick up by showing them some dance moves - no music... I shamelessly told my boss to record him on his mobile....Come Monday morning everyone was laughing at the video clip that he mailed around - but birthday boy was a good sport and was even good humored when we teased him about all the things he *couldn't remember*...
Friday just gone we went out for drinks at The Loft in Darling Harbour which was really nice. Our bosses opened a tab and wouldn't let anyone pay! How cool is that? The work drinks thing is going to be a monthly event and it sounds good to me! I mean who would object to free drinks and a chance to check out guys in their suits?? LOL!
Aside from all that - next month we will be moving offices. The new place has a lot more space we are in dire need of and a nice view of the city. Hopefully we should be in there before the end of the month.

Well id better get to tidying up my room i haven't done anything in a week and it looks like a pigsty! Hope everyone had a FAB weekend! TC.

Where does the time go?

Hearing:

I began this post to write about what ive been upto and it strangely turned into a career should i/shouldnt i? post. CTRL+A and Del.

The past few weeks have been very busy. Lets see...there was my brother selling his beautiful motorbike to a hot guy who i still wish id given my number to. And the past couple of weekends ive been spending lots of time out shopping around and looking at cars.

OMG!

There was a highschool reunion! Actually it was more of a catch-up at a bar/pub near where my old highschool used to be. And yes i went along. I know most people couldnt care less but i was curious as to what happened with everyone and also to see how i would feel. I was an out-cast in highschool and a total dag and no im not exaggerating. I was a little anxious beforehand but I went along with a friend of mine and im happy to say i felt - im not sure how to explain it - but indifferent might be close enough. I had a lot of fun catching up with some people i knew and hadnt seen in ages. I also heard countless "so what have you been up to stories" and i didnt feel the need to brag about travelling the world (any FA inherent right i think!). I felt pretty darn good! I think its a sign that youve come a long way when your thrown into your past and not only do you not fall into you old habits but dont try to overcompensate either and you just feel comfortable in your own skin.

My study (which i mentioned before) is taking a lot of discipline. So far ive only managed to finish studying the basics of Dreamweaver. I really should be doing more tutorials and start looking at Flash too but like i said studying on your own really requires discipline and to be honest im not really good with that.

And as for the career thing, i think im going to have to chuck a Briget Jones and start keeping a tally of the number of times i wish i had the FA lifestyle back...but more on that another time i think...
