Hi Liorah!
Hope everything is running smoothly over your way! Don't forget to share every detail, anticipating your next entry...
I have been rostered for 14 hours this week then given another 4 hour shift today, on top of this I'm being payed for my 2 hour trial at modern primitive... 20 HOURS!!! :D If that wasn't enough good news, I was told that BI-LO is offering apprenticeships. I phoned my manager when I got home and I'm meeting him tomorrow morning to discuss it! The tafe course they were going to put me through first is the same course I start next week! (Retail Operations Certificate 2) The manager mentioned that they would be putting me through certificate 3 afterwards but would discuss that in detail tomorrow. I was planning on applying for an interior design course or a fashion course afterwards.. I haven't really thrown primary school teaching out the window yet either. If I get the apprenticeship I'm going to turn down Modern Primitive before my trial but offer to come and work the hours in case they cut someone's shift to fit me in. BTW, I went very well with my interview (dah, I made it to a trial)... VERY well in my interview!!! They were relaying how impressed they were during the interview let alone after it. *head swelling* *BEAM :D*
It seems whenever I really catch up with you I'm excited about something totally new in regards to work! First it was Roger David (STILL no contact - don't fancy working for a deceivingly unprofessional clothes store anyway) then it was the Toy Sales company (career path my arse) then it was working with dad to import home ware supplies from South Africa (still in progress!!!) Then it was Modern Primitive (love that store! We all do!) and now, (wonder if I missed anything... he he) ironically, it's an apprenticeship at the store that motivated me to hand out over 40 resumes and buy every newspaper (that reminds me about the one with 5 Star Resort Marketing.. 4 or the door.. ha.). I can put up with BI-LO for 1 or 2 more years if I get this on my resume.. Sure it's a cut in my pay, but mum said I get payed holiday.. sick days.. tafe payed for.. and think of the guaranteed hours! I know, I'm always over excited about the latest greener grass. Call me a cow cos I'm accepting if they offer tomorrow!
Staying at Tony's tomorrow night, though I will try my hardest to get online and update tomorrow's gossip. Tony and I intend to start playing tennis every week on a set afternoon (possibly Wednesdays).. Goodbye growing belly (yeah, I'm finally over it's novelty value..) That reminds me.. Did I tell you I caught Giardia (?) from my water tank - the thing Sydney had to boil their water for.. Awful stuff, and the medicine made me feel even worse.. Good fun by all (mum had it and Sean nearly caught it).
Finding time to read again, so hopefully all those unread books on my shelf I have collected will do more just look good. Will update you on my progress in that area too. Plan to read one fiction and one non fiction book at a time. First up in fiction is David Eddings' 'Pawn of Prophecy' - Book 1 of The Belgariad. Already read this book, though it was so long ago and so well written anyway that I'm going to read it through again before continuing in the series. First non fiction book ~ Paul Johnson's 'The Renaissance' - short history of the origins and course of the Renaissance celebrating the intellectual liberation and artistic achievements which were to make this era probably the most influential... I think I'll find myself more able to commit to reading and journal entries now that I've told you my goals and now that this is my main means of contact with you.
I can't wait to hear how it's all going for you! Think of you doing what you've always wanted to do and can't help smiling. You are truly an inspiration to me. Love you lots.. Miss you heaps.. Goodnight.
