No, it's not exactly a year that I've been in the UK but it's around the beginning of August and this morning... The sun was shining (terrential rain in the afternoon, now sunshine again, ooooh Great Britain - call that summer), well, the sun was shining and I went to work and it just hit me at how much I have achieved although I sort of thought, I should apply for them few jobs I came across in Germany... Whatever. When I walked into our big office building, I saw myself in the glass of the door and thought, look at her, same one but so different. I was laughing at that girlish woman with tears in my eyes. Still don't know why I am doing this, don't know what I'm doing.... Though I go on and do it. I am very independent, perhaps too independent. And act it even more than I know I am. Tough one.
Had a random moan at work today (unfortunately later I found out for sure that everything I say to my team leader will be passed on to my real Manager within seconds).... Yes, advantage and disadvantage in that... Anyways, me as the one that's been there longest (haha, 2,5 months) and the other 2 new girls were on our own for the afternoon - I think as a test as we'll be on our own for 3 days next week when not even the Manager will be around. I am glad we managed very well though. Might even be a chance for me and that one girl to pull ourselves together and try working as a team. Well done :) Roll on next week - after a well deserved weekend and a friday in the pub :) And I finally ordered something yesterday that will keep me busy on that miserable weekend they forecast in the weather report. ;p
Also, just booked tickets for me and nice girl at work to go and see MARY POPPINS in the HIPPODROME! SOOOOOOO excited, honestly. And thanks to my weird German friend, we got them half price, the good ones 8)
Oh, I have to mention that today, for the second time this week, I accomplished to cook a decent dinner that goes down well with a nice glass of white wine and music....
So, to come to an end.... My house mate is such an idiot. He's gone away for more than a month from last weekend. Left his washing in the machine, left the door of the outer building open, light was on for 2 days as I didn't notice, left back door open (scaryyyy, poor little me) but best of all, left a 4 pints bottle of milk in the fridge for more than a week and it came to live, ready to explode so MOI had to get rid of it.... Honestly....
I think I'll get some more wine and Callas and sway to bed in a bit. Absolutely exhausted and it's not quite friday yet.
