Soooo... yesterday I had GREAT day! I meant to update yesterday and explain all about it... but I erm, got busy! So yeah, I didn't. But now I'm on my lunch hour and being crap by not sending Barny what I bought him, cos everytime I go over there ----> (over the road) to buy stamps, I forget!! So you're just gonna have to wait I'm afraid Barn. I did manage to nick a stamp off my Mum to post Jess' card, so phew, all is fine in the world! At least the important things are dealt with :D
Okay, so yesterday. Well to re-cap. Monday was a HORRIBLE day - I just felt like total utter crap all day, I felt ill, and I didn't feel happy either, and it just pretty much completely sucked. I was feeling soooo bored with work, with life, with everything. Starting to doubt all the decisions I'd made about what to do and what not to do - typical Helen really.
Then Tuesday, for some reason I woke up feeling pretty alright, considering I'd gone to bed feeling like my life was the worse life in the world (which obviously it isn't!). I got into work... and I still felt fine, and it kinda continued like that all day really!
I've been waiting to hear from one more Uni about whether or not they're going to make me an offer, and I kinda wanted to hear cos I was feeling impatient. Sooo I sent them an e-mail just asking what was going on and stuff, and whether they had any decisions for me. And this guy replied within like an hour and a half!! Talk about that for quick. We take like 3 days to reply to e-mails here lol. Madness. (We're so crap!)
Anyways, he replied and said that they'd made me an unconditional offer (that's good, by the way), so yayyyyyy!!! I was all happy about that. It's for Chichester by the way. www.ucc.ac.uk I'd been looking at the website before I sent the e-mail, and was feeling really like I'd quite like to go there! So hey, maybe now I will. Obviously I'm gonna go and visit it, and see what I think of it, the area, the town etc.
So then I decided, hey, I'm on a roll here... why not sort out my job as well! Cos originally I was only supposed to work here until the end of February to cover someone's maternity leave for 6 months, with the possibility of being able to cover it for an extra 6 months after that if she decided to take more maternity leave! So I got to now, and I'm thinking "hmmm... really need to find out what's happening, so that I can either stay, or look for another job...". So yesterday I asked, and it turns out that I can stay! Plus... and this is even better. I'm gonna go part-time!! I know that might not be so good because it's less money... but it is really good money for what it is! I mean, I have such a cushty job, it's not that difficult, it's steady, it's amazing pay - albeit it's boring... maybe it won't be so bad just doing 3 days a week here.
And as for the other 2 days, I might go and work for Claire at Soul Survivor... but that's just an idea - she is asking, but she hasn't heard anything back yet. Sooo yeah - everything just seemed to fall into place yesterday! Was kinda weird really, because usually I spend SO much time trying to figure everything out and organise everything, and it never seems to work! But now all of a sudden everything just seems to be making sense and going well. Maybe because I'm so much more chilled out about everything these days.... hmmm....! Interesting!
So yeah - that's it really... that's why I'm doing pretty great!
And today at work I've just had a pretty cool day, been doing some different jobs. It's all gonna sound totally lame if I try and explain it... but let's just put it this way... I got to sign letters!!!! I made the letters, wrote them out and everything, set up the mail-merge (first time!)... and then printed them all out. Hehe, it was exciting for me anyways. All of you are sitting there going "Ha... Heych, you're so sad... get a life!". And I would be too if I was reading someone else saying all the crap that I talk about ;-)
Anyways - 4 minutes of my lunch hour left.
I shall be offskies!!
Love, Heych xxxxxxxxxxxx
