Highlights:

• Everyone freaked out over the Spock pumpkin (affectionately known as 'Spockkin') :D
• My mum was sneaky and bought me a present despite me telling her not to. Those GQ dangly earrings in my photo? From my mum <3 She knows my taste veeeery well (product of far too much time squealing over shiny things together) and they matched my costume ( Read more... )

Managed to waste several hours bothering the girl in stores, mostly by helping her with her small amount of work which gave her even less to do. Awesome job, self! But at least I had someone to be uselessly bored with, yes? And I just made the draw for the Campbell's soup contest! It was pretty much the most anti-climactic moment of the day. So now ( Read more... )

Soooooooooo booooooooooooooooooored. I have absolutely NOTHING to do until after lunch. And then my task will take a grand total of maaaaybe twenty minutes. If I stretch it out. I put together a Campbell's soup contest last week (ooooh, the exciting world of foodservice internship) and I'm supposed to make the draw for the prizes and contact the ( Read more... )

I was reasonably productive when I got here this morning, since I had things that I had to do. Give this person this form, talk to this person about the form, gather the caf staff to talk to one of the other interns for five minutes, write up everything I've done for my stupid project to date. Since then, I've buried my head in the ontd_startrek's FRIENDING ( Read more... )

Tonight marked the introduction of Cherith to the Star Trek movies. She says she's seen Wrath of Khan before, but considering she missed the crucial detail that Spock died at the end (omgspoilers!!) I don't think it really stuck. So what did we watch? THE VOYAGE HOME. She fell asleep during the boring bits at the beginning (especially boring if you ( Read more... )

And we have a new contender for the ongoing Worst Sleep EVAR awards. Last night I got to sleep at... drumroll... 5 O'CLOCK! I do believe that's a new record, discounting those caused by jetlag. ARGH. Am going to buy some sleepy pills because I have to get my sleep pattern back on track for Monday. Sigh ( Read more... )

So today was the poisoned cherry on top of a truly horrible two weeks. I don't really feel like going into detail, but it seems that my paranoia that my supervisors were plotting against me was actually completely spot on. Whod've thunk it? Yeah. So basically they're demanding that I redo my two weeks of staff relief. Today was the first I heard of ( Read more... )

TODAY IS MY LAST DAY OF INTERNSHIP BARRING ANY LAST-MINUTE RAGE ISSUES/ADDITIONAL UNREASONABLE DEMANDS FROM MY SUPERVISORS EVER.

My final evaluation is in an hour, so naturally I'm sitting here with my stomach twisted into knots pretending very hard that they aren't in the next room conspiring filling out my evaluation form. I'm deeply paranoid ( Read more... )

The last few days have been utterly horrible and I don't wish to talk about them anymore. In a nutshell: my supervisors have decided I'm not yet competent and I have to redo a couple of projects and finish this one that was never finished because I only got the write-up for it a few weeks ago and it basically involves restructuring the entire ( Read more... )

This icon just fits so very well ( Read more... )
