Hi all

Been a crazy week for me inparticular, but over all its been a crazy month.

This week started with a very hard moment related to family. It has caused me to be very pensive and thoughtful and generally not concentrating well. I would class the moment as one of those big ones you remember all your life and is likely to have major impact on all for a long time. Good thing about this is it has taken me back to writing, most of which is unfinished and the little I feel I can share is now in scraps.

On other notes -work - I'm still at the Advertiser and Flinders doing various things but have also been going to interviews for other event coordinator and event manager related jobs (even though I'm currently not actually looking).
From the last entry I was waiting to hear back and then I had a second interview but they said the other guy would suite them better. I also get the idea that they mean guy as in male and also mentioned something about age and suggested I wont stay in SA. I kinda thought I wanted the job but considering how unbothered I was to miss out, its probably not that bad.

On more exciting news - I'm going to Sydney! City of Sydney is very happy to have me, I will be working in the Producer's department for New Years Eve in Sydney and they said they would put me through all the departments at some stage. I start 1st December and last day is on 9th January. Very excited and now having to save as I know no one in Sydney, if you do and they have a spare room please let me know.

Also I have taken up Belly dancing, thanks to Cas & Tea's sister teaching it. I am very bad so far, damn long limbs keeping getting in the way, but its fun.

Looking forward to Housewarming for Josh, Nath and Aaron tonight and the general catch up of friends. I will also try to make some more cookies for tonight.

I will eat cake

Hello all, or actually few that read this

I have finished my last assignement for uni, handed it in and now I am free!

I have no more studies and well there will be a couple of assignments cos I still have an industry placement but I'm still done! I don't have to go to the creepy, smelly, annoying and crazy place called uni - no wait, thats right they have employed me. I'm still stuck here but at least now they are paying me to be.

So I had an interview for an Event Coordinator position and I find out tomorrow . . so depending on the result you may here from me again soon.

So I have time now . . . I plan to make Choc-chip cookies, watch alot of DVD's that I have brought and not had time to see yet, visit those people who claim blood relation, visit those who don't and I like better, buy a new computer, start writing stories again and maybe take up painting.

For those who have bothered to read this far, I thank you, for those who didn't - jerks but not like they'll know I said it, they didnt get that far

Hello all

I am happy and bright and good again and I blame Brisbane.

I have finished the major uni project I have been working so hard on and stressing so much about last weekend. It was awful. Horrible, bad and stupid and annoying and upsetting. I think you get the point. So glad it is now over and I can forget, suppress and consider changing career paths.

I also just got back from Brisbane on Sunday night. So . . . everything that my project was not. Relaxing, beautiful, fun, lively and just brilliant. I'm going back. Big thanks to Teagan for letting me crash and Joe, he does technically live there too. Hi to Alana, nice to meet you and I will see you again I'm sure.

Just to catch up all up with where I am right now - I am finishing studies at uni in June and then will wait and make money as I plan to do my final uni industry placement in December in Sydney. I am also starting to slowly look for a new job, hopefully in my industry some where and full time.

To friends - I have missed you. I havent been around much recently I know, but I well kinda freer now. Cas - special mention answer your phone, we need to catch up (hows thursday or Saturday?).

Right thats pretty much it for now

Hey all or the few who read this.

It has been ages since I last updated this. To catch you all up (the few, very few that I don't see regularly and therefore don't know) I have been working. WORKING. ALOT!

I am still at the Advertiser (and I have no good reason why). I spend my days being watched with the rest of my department to check we are working and not just wasting their (various levels of boss's) time so as to get them in trouble for not doing their own work. I also get yelled at alot by customers as the system has not improved in the last year since it was installed and now we can no longer hide it.

I also recently (mid January) became a promo model. I feel I sold out but hey money is money when you need it and well it pays better than the Advertiser and I don't have the urge to kill everyone I meet and work with at the varying jobs.

I realise that it has been so long since I wrote on here that I would not have said it yet so to all. . Merry Christmas, to several (they know who they are, even if one is unlikely to read this as she hates my lack of grammer - I tried hard until this bit), Happy Birthday.

Oh and it was my birthday yesterday and thank you to all who remembered if I didn't say it then.

And as I will not really get to vent this to any one in person but still want it out there. I'm done, no more fence mending. I will not bother anymore as I will not get anything out of it. An epiphany was not needed, just an eye opening unacknowledgement from one so thats it.

Right as they want a cameo, Josh and Nathan have just turned up so I have to go now (actually only Nathan asked, Josh wanted that pointed out)

Hey all

Time for this again. Hope everyone has been good and since I have motly seen everyone who reads this recently I can say that probably fine.

On the recent catch up - good to see the old crowd, so like high school. I found it crazy that we are all so the same but just well grown up or adult, still the craziness but we have matured (well sorta). It also brought it home to me how much I have changed over the years and how much I had changed previously and to which I have gone back to recently (makes sence to me) - over all very good night.

To catch those who dont know up - work - busy as always, heading to christmas, so going to be crazy then. Uni - over, I have assignments but lectures have finished and i dont have exams so lucky me!

New line cos event work has been busy - for those who care I have just had Melbourne Cup, fun and annoying all in one long, tiring and rather random day. I still have the Barossa event coming which seems to be fine at this time. I am currently doing nothing because another chick is doing something similar on the night before and we are helping each other but I started on this like 6 weeks ago and she has now had 2 weeks so I'm letting her catch up.

Friends - see above, previously covered. Also new uni friend is interesting - name of Shae, weird guy and with the strange stories and crazy personal hang ups but we like the same stuff - books, some movies etc

Family (again for those who care) -Steven has moved out. My youngest brother, cos he's bigger than me will be 18 soon, we shall all be offically adult. Grandmother turns 80 - big family thing coming.

House - I have a bookcase! its big and already looks full, also a new bed. Mum is also doing stuff to the house - the pool has been ripped out, there is a new low wall in the court yard and the guttering is being done.

Thats all I can think of right now. Oh I will post again soon, I other stuff I am willing to share.
