The weather has been playing havoc recently. Just a month ago, it was snowing and hailing, two weeks ago there was an awful cold snap and now……
Bright Blue sky! I love how we HAD to endure 4-5 months of cold cold weather to suddenly have a peek of whats in store for the next few months.

I’ve come to the point where I just ain’t enjoying them anymore. People talk about how common binge drinking is; how about binge smoking? I think personally, I have been binge smoking for the last 2-3 years. Started out with the excuse of social smoking to coping with difficult times to being addicted to nicotine…I have simply become one who smokes. A chain smoker. There, I have said it. Gone where the days where I would sit and enjoy a couple of smokes while having a drink and a chat with friends. I’m not as bad any some who goes by pack a day but I think 25 sticks in 7 days is bad enough……So I’m taking a break. Who knows, I might probably quit for good….I would ideally, like to go back to the days where I only smoke to kick back and relax….

Update: Day 3:- Just had my first coffee session without any. I was nervous but proud that I lived through it. Next test? Sat’s drinking session. Now…THAT’S a test.

3 years ago…
Living on ressies
Having the time of my life
I have just gotten together with Twitchy
G block was the place to be…
Tobogganing at the snow
When weekends were just another day to party to compliment existing Thursday and Friday nights…

2 years ago...
Living in a waterside 3 bedroom apartment along with two other girl friends
Picking up the pieces after an exodus of friends
Dreading the end of Uni
All about the cooking and eating
Retreated to a social seclusion
Horse Riding

1 year ago…
One bedroom near city apartment
Working 25 hours per week
Getting out of debt – barely living by
Mad house-drinking parties
Mourning over the end of my university chapter

Today...
Living with his parents along with the two dogs
Owning a Bright bumblebee
Working fulltime in a Marketing Coordinator position
Learning to ski
Learning to drive
I had lost a brother...

Hire Slow, Sack fast?

That was quoted on the first page of the Business pullout a week ago. That was surely, I thought, the most inappropriate thing for an employer to say. Arrogant yes, In denial Yes. Openly taunting and asking for a PR disaster…HELL YES! And even more so to have those words coming from someone i know is enough to make me cringe….

I have recently seen a side of management which deeply disturbs me. Having work in this company for the past 18 months, I’ve grown to love every single one of my weird and eccentric workmates. This month, I’m losing four of them. It’s quite an eye opener, I’ll have to say. Again, full of uncertainty…I can’t help but wonder, is a line between personal, business and social in office relationships? Am I naïve to think that people can change if they were given another chance?

I sure am glad I’m not in Management…..
