So it has been a while since I last posted that rather sad blog. Tons of stuff has happened since then. In summary:
- I found a great flat. Wooden floors, a shower, great view, lots of light and within budget.
- I moved (very traumatic), the old flat was on the third floor with no elevator.
- Mom unpacked (she was incredible, SUPER MOM), she flew in special.
- Boyfriend gave HR my CV at the company (lets call it Green) he works for.
- I went on an interview at Green
- Started a DIY project involving an old cupboard.
- Watched most of Smallville and Desperate Housewives
- I went for Psychometric Testing for the job above (a mentally draining day)
- The boyfriend and I put the final touches to Europe plans
- Got offered the job at Green, the day before we left to Europe.
- Accepted job offer
- Went to Europe
- Had a great time. Mostly (had an incident with bed lice, and still itchy). You will know all details.
- Saw Spanish bullfighting. Toro! Toro! Ole! One of my favourite things.
- Came back from Europe.
- Had a day to relax.
- Started new job (on 10/08/2006).
- New job is very cool, learning lots of new stuff. Boss people actually work, very refreshing to see this. The people at Green use lots of acronyms (that they only know), when speaking to the newbie. But more on that in a later blog.
- Currently typing out this blog from new and very large computer screen at new job.
So lots of good things have happened since my last entry and apparently I missed all the bad things (3 of the coldest days in CT, stuff with the fam, and Deeza’s unfortunate car break in). It’s incredible how much you miss what’s familiar when you're in some new place.
