Well I suppose everyone is still enjoying their holidays, but as some of us do have to return back to school on the 3rd which sucks. For me I started work on the 3rd, which is today. I suppose i would name a few New Year resolutions, but i don't think i have accomplished the ones I have said previous year so why add on to the pile or repeat myself?
Well stress sure built up in Nov and Dec from school, but the holidays (approx 9 days for me) was I guess just sufficient enough to relieve all that built up stress?
Recap of Holidays (not in any particular order):
-Chilled with the guys, did some serious gaming
-Chilled with the girls
- Well i lost Monday night wings returning back to Toronto, but AllStar wings made it up, thxs Lyd, Dor, Geo, and Jenn for coming out for wings! Much appreciated... oh there was bowling and god do i suck ass
- shopping for work clothes ended up getting some casual stuff
- Boxing day shopping - Thxs Jen W to have me tag along, this time i did get work clothes
- Our Korean Bbq ended turning into a Hotpot cuz it was packed and hotpot sucked
- Pantaxia was not bad
- Guys Poker night - i ended up playing Resident Evil 4, but i got to see everyone which was nice
- Babyshower was fun, shopping for the baby stuff presented a challenge tho
- Dinner @ Milestones and the new year countdown at Wills was great... Will there is a reason i suck in "Dirty charades" lol
Well there are other stuff that i haven't listed but those are what i can remember on the top of my head...
First Day of Work
Well with my sleep scheduled all messed up i ended up sleeping at 2am and waking up 7am to get ready to meet my supervisor at the National Defence Building to get my security clearance. Then it turns out she forgot we needed 1 more form to get my security clearance, which also happens to not have been completed by the head of the finance
So we spent roughly 2-3 hrs finding the forms we need and gathering the information that was required to fill in the rest of the form. While that was happening i was given a tour of the office and met a lot of ppl. THE HELL THEY ALL SPEAK FRENCH lol one guy said he'll give me free french lessons lol. Ohhhhhh they have 2 HUGE cabinets for office supplies... Binders, post it notes of all kinds, pens, pencils, dividers you name it and its FREE ACCESS i feel like i was at business depot or something haha. Anyways it took half a day to get my security clearance pass *sigh*
Around 2pm i got a thick manual to learn how to use some program that i will be receiving training on which will happen in 2 weeks time... so what the hell i wasn't gonna start reading it up if its in 2 weeks so other than that i had nothing else to do, so i sat there and slept until it was time to leave.
Alrite that was one hell of a long entry... until next time!
