I don't understand why but my life has been pretty hectic lately. I've recently decided to volunteer and I've chosen Canadian Blood Services and the Telus World of Science. I've been orientated at CBS and will be starting alternating Saturdays starting on June 14th. I've had a short interview and equally short tour of the World of Science. I'll be ( Read more... )

Reading week is officially over. Tomorrow morning I will be waking up "early" in the morning and going to school. It's true that I didn't do much over my week long vacation but I just realized that I don't accomplish much going to school either. At least in the past week I've been able to do nothing in the comfort of my own home and waking up at ( Read more... )

We just went to our desks, did what we do best and at the end of the day all ( Read more... )

Today my team treated me ... Alright, today my team treated itself to lunch, a movie and alcoholic beverages. Lunch was served at Cocoa's, the restaurant in the Delta Hotel. It was less served as retrieved seeing as it was a buffet. I, of course, stuffed my face silly and exemplified to my fellow co-workers how fast and efficient I am at eating. I ( Read more... )

Today was an amazing day at work. Firstly, I barely had any work. The work I did do was completed, as to my knowledge, flawlessly. I was able to feel useful because I helped someone out giving them instructions on how to use our software. Sure, it wasn't anything overly difficult but still it feels good to feel like you know what you're doing. I ( Read more... )
