Whats new with meeeeeeee

Hey ya! Well the main news since my last post is that i scored myself a summer job thru none other than SJS :) i'd honestly nearly given up on SJS but yeah one morning my mum was like 'just go and check again' so i did (under office/clerical) and there was a new one listed there that looked really good and was out near the airport. So i rang up SJS straight away, they passed my name onto the company & also gave me the numba of the company to ring, i rang them, the lady was lovely and said to come on in for an interview, so i did, it went really well...and then, voila, they offered me the job and i took it So yeah im now doing reception work for this company called Serada that specialises in selling marine and motorhome gear amongst many other things (as i've since discovered...eg fridges, tvs, dvd players etc etc). I had my first week there last week and it all went pretty smoothly, the other receptionist lady was really nice and showed me the ropes ie the phone system, how to invoice, do the filing etc etc. But sadly, it was Karen's (the other receptionist) last day on Fri :( So yeah another girl from out the back, Sharon, who used to be on reception has come to fill in until she goes on maternity leave in Feb/March. Took me awhile to get used to answering the phone all the time...altho i noticed some times of the day are definitely busier and the phone calls usually come in spurts. But im gettin used to it :) All the staff are really friendly and ask me regularly how im going.

So now that im working full-time for the summer i value my w/ends so much more!! haha. now i know what it must be like for people that work full-time thru the year...

In other news, i got all my exam results back recently and was pretty happy with them overall...esp with my stage 3 geography one that i got an A for! My other results werent too bad either. So now im just sorting out what papers/classes im gonna take for next year and ive nearly got it sorted..and so far so good - no timetable clashes!! will still need to fit in tutorials into my t/table tho but yeah she'll be right.

Man can anyone else believe how fast this year has gone?? Hopefully we'll actually put up our Christmas decorations a bit earlier this year (usually we dont put the tree etc up until like a week or so before Christmas)...we bought some of that holly type stuff to drape across the doorway btwn our dining room and lounge and a few other bits n pieces to add to our christmas decorations :) im looking forward to putting it all up!

Anyways betta sign off for now, have a good one
