Day 56/57

THURSDAY/FRIDAY

Thursday was slow.

Friday was rocket speed.

Thursday was possibilities.

Friday was practicalities.

Thursday was a phone interview.

Friday was a job offer.

Thursday was looking at a lazy summer.

Friday is staring at full time work.

Thursday is excited about possibilities.

Friday is terrified at the prospect of a 'real job' & what that means.

DEAR DIARY:

On Thursday I didn't do much. It was nice.. I was feeling kind of crummy so sleeping in automatically improved the day. Got Boost.. that was about it. Then I got a phone call from the guy at the place for that copy job? Yep. My descriptions are ace, no?

But anyway.

He called, asked lots of questions, I talked a bit, he talked a lot, he asked me about holidays, avaliabilities, uni, part time work, and then we decided I'd go for a face to face interview the next morning at 9am :o

Terrifying.

He was talking like I already had the job & because I know he hasn't advertised this anywhere except through Andy (the careers dude at I.D.S) there were no people to compete with for the position...... scary.

So Ev & I went shopping for a shirt so I had something to wear..

 

Ev: "Why don't you have a shirt? What do you wear to weddings?"

Me: "Um.. a dress? Because I'm a girl."

Had smallies which was fun, pretty laid back.

Thanks to Ros for the wardrobe-raiding time :) we're cool.

Next week is Hamish's birthday, it's a big one so I want to get him a present or something but I don't know what.... hmmm.

Same night went out with Jess & Charm, probably shouldn't have but it turned out to be pretty fun if not insanely tiring. I'm an idiot. I really should have slept so I was totally awake for my interview.. got some good photos though. Check the facebook for those.

Got to sleep by 2.30.

Friday morning I was up at 6.15(ish) showered, dressed....... was late.

Oops.

Missed the 7.48 train by about 30 seconds :(

So caught the normal train, was about 3 minutes late for my interview, but it was fine coz he knew I was on public transport & he was doing something anyway.

Went to the cafe across the road from their shop, I got tea :) YUM. I hadn't had breakfast so it was good.. tried not to look too eager to drink it even though I was dying to just inhale it.. i love tea.

Anyway.

We talked for about an hour, and he offered me the job..

Obviously, I accepted.

We went back to the store & I met his wife & the 3 other guys that work there.. he showed me around.. gave me some stuff to read.. blah blah.................

I HAVE A JOB!!!!!!!!

i'm so scared.

went to uni after, then home, then i lay in bed like a zombie for about an hour before work.

which was BUSY!? weird.

to be completely honest, the only thing i'm really excited about job-wise is that i have to wear corporate kind of business gear. means shopping & a whole new style to explore...... i'm such a girl.

and this is corporate portraiture, apparently.
