Wow - a blast From the Past!

Jul 07, 2010 09:30

So yesterday at VA, I saw someone i hadn't seen for 20 years or so; I can't remember exactly when it was last; may have been a bit less actually as I believe the last time I went to New Vision camp was 92 (when I was turning 13).
I bumped into this girl literally at the reception desk.
We enter the room near the canteen.
Emilie: This is priscilla *insert last name here)
me: Did you by any chance attend the new Vision camps?
P: Yes I did.
Me: OMG I know you, wow; remember; we met on the bus.
So that was pretty cool. Will have to swap contact details next week after all this time. I told her that I often would ask colourschanging about her.
Anyway, not much to report apart from that. I'm only using Metro on average once a week at the moment but am already just as frustrated with them as an every day commuter; *grrr*; no-one knows what train is coming when and where half the damn time, seriously. :( bring back Connex is what I say, seriously!
Currently my employment consultant Afet is interested to try and get me a work experience place to get my foot in the door, and the hope is that one of them will hopefully give me permanent employment. So I'm coming up with a list of the companies I might want that to happen with, but of course in the meantime, I am still supposed (ahem .. "supposed" being the operative word) to continue applying for jobs.
Oh also, I have decided I am going to torture myself and buy the ID summit outright; I have bought all the other crap myself, so I shouldn't suddently expect to get someone else to pay for this, especially when I do have the funds; that's my opinion anyway; I don't feel I need special treatment. Plus, this way, I can own it outright, instead of just borrowing it and feeling like I'd have to give it back if I'm not using it. However; I know I will be using this every day; it will be so wonderful and I so so so can't wait to get it. As soon as I can, I will go myself to pick it up from Kensington; none of this online shopping; I want it now! :) I still have to confirm the shop is based in Melbourne what with all the changes at VA; have a feeling it is; yeah! :)
