The one with the great day

Job update:

Amberlie called me to book me in for an interview for the position that I applied for. Monday morning whilst i'm at Richmond doing HR work. How bizarre. Anyway, everyone's really supporting me, everyone's got my back. The fact that the position is at another branch kinda puts me off a little, but the fact that the position at central will be vacant pretty soon is inviting. I would not mind it at all i reckon if i get the position at central :) Well, we'll see how everything goes.

Dreams:

I've still been having pretty good dreams this week. Can't remember all of them exactly, but i wake up each morning smiling. loving it!

Holiday:

13 more sleeps till I go on holidays!! Can't wait, can't wait!! Still have lots of shopping to do. Couldnt have done earlier even if i wanted to, cos i've been broke! Payday was today, so now i've got more $$ :)

Work:

Been bitching about this freaking manager over at another branch. She's such a lazy bum, i dont even know how she got the job in the first place - not knowing what to do, not knowing how to manage her staff, taking leave/calling in sick every other day..argghHh!Hhhh!! pisses me off!! On the other hand, I've just been given a pay rise!! yay for me! This payrise is long over due, and my manager has organised for it to be backdated!! so my next paycheck's gonna be massive!! *excited*

The one with all the feelings

I FEEL ABSOLUTELY DISAPPOINTED.

A couple of things happened today that just made me feel this way. I dont really feel like explaining myself.

On the other hand, a part of me feel blessed, thankful, and appreciated :)

16 more sleeps till HOME!!!

The one with the job application

So after a whole lot of thinking and uncertainty, i applied for the job. I was trying to get advice from everyone possible. Spoke to Jono, Maree, Lisa, Tamara, and everyone had their 2 cents worth. I then called Claire, who i work with in HR, and she told me to give it a shot. There's no harm in applying, and so i did! So there i was, an hour before the application closes, applying for it. Managed to submit my application on time, and i kinda felt a little bit good at the end, kinda bittersweet. Cos it would be good to be CCM, but it would be awful to leave central and all the cool people i love! Oh well, we shall see how it goes.

The one where i'm stuck in a dilemma

ArrgghhH!!!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!! I've been given the opportunity to "compete" for a position open at my company. Basically it's a promotion if you're the best amongst all the interviewees. Was talking to my manager a few days ago, and she was encouraging me to apply, as she sees great potential in me, and thinks that i would be great in that position! *flattered* and *shy* HOWEVER!!! the position is based elsewhere and not at central! and i love central. i dont wanna leave central! such a dilemma. Should i apply? should i not? I DON't KNOW!! Maybe i'll apply for the sake of it. and see how it goes. wait and see where the position is based at. I shall speak to someone who can give me advice on this tmrw. aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrhhhhhh!!!

The one with the long update

I think i have lots to update on.

*Things that have been happening all May/June long*

See, but the thing is, i dont even think i can remember!! I'll try, but i probably won't remember everything. We'll start of with an awesome month in work. My foot's finally in the HR world. Have been working closely with Claire, who's our HR advisor. It's been great, learnt heaps of stuff and I get to sit in on all the juicy meetings, conferences and stuff like that, which more often that not, it will remain confidential. I was also invited to OZMO, it's our company's annual awards dinner held in Sydney. I was so moved that i was invited. Cool stuff, HOWEVER!!! i will not be able to make it to this all expenses paid event (flight, hotel, etc) because i will not be here then!! DAMMIT!! but anyway, there's always next year.

Had a going away party for my former manager sometime in may. It was a pretty cool gathering, lots to drink, lots to chat. Miss u heaps Mich!! Come back to central! Jayno was there too, and we miss her too!

I've been having lots of lovely dreams this past few weeks. I go to bed smiling, reflecting on all the beautiful things that happened, and I wake up smiling as well reflecting on the beautiful dreams i've had, trying to remember them.

The wonderful world of music has once again made my life a pleasure to live. The fabulous bands have prevailed and made words into lyrics. beats into rhythm. noise into music. And being able to share that love for music with someone else is amazing. Thanks Jono!! You're the best!

One of my close friends is expecting her first baby!! She's excited and i'm so excited for her! I wonder what she'll name her baby. Shall we start thinking of names now? Hhmm...

I'm looking forward to July. My long awaited holiday. I've used up all of my annual leave for a holiday back home. A well deserved holiday i might add. Everyone at work is glad that i'm finally taking a holiday, cos i've been working my ass offf, and they think i deserve a holiday too. One of my colleagues texted me the other day, and he said that we should bottle up my blood and clone me!! The next day i went in to work and told him, i think i may be afraid of drawing blood!! argghH! Anyway, back to holiday talk. Will be going back home for 4 week, with a detour in Singapore on the way home for a few days. Main reason for the detour: BEST FRIEND"S WEDDING!! I'm so thrilled she's found happiness. I can't wait to see her walk down that aisle in her gorgeous gown and marrying the man of her dreams. On a different note, i can't wait to return home and meet up with all these people whom i haven't seen/met in 2 and a half years! I wonder how everyone's changed/grown. I wonder what the little town that I grew up in looks like. I wonder what my house looks like. My school. My friends. My dogs. My room! Cant wait, cant wait, cant wait!!!!!

I'm officially broke. I've spent so much on shopping, air ticket, etc i've barely got any $$ left. Which is sad, cos now i can't buy stuff :( I need to formulate a plan in which i will be loaded with cash. haha..how i wish!

Anyways, i think that is all for now. Will TRY my best to update on a regular basis from now on.

22 more sleeps till HOME!!
