RGuy and I e-mail each other constantly at work. I guess we manage to find time to constantly check our e-mail! It's just like chatting in real time - almost.I do miss him.
I'm getting more comfortable with my job assignment. I just keep rueing the fact that I'll have to leave in such short time. Oh well.
I could get used to being corporate. It's just too bad I didn't study business in school. Hmmm... I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with my health degree. Doh.
All in all, it's been a busy week. I'm exhausted! Probably won't party tonight - I'm just gonna zonk out and maybe sleep in.

"Fall On Your Knees" by Ann-Marie MacDonald
"Confessions Of A Shopaholic" by Sophie Kinsella
"A Student Of Weather" by Elizabeth Hay
Heh heh.
I know - I'm a geek. The last one is Canadian.

Oh man, I am so so exhausted. Had a busy day at my first day of work today. Temping will be fun cause I'll get to experience lots of different things, but it'll be exhausting to have to change pace so often and train as if you'll be there forever, only to stay 2 weeks.Woke up super early - try 5 AM. Then I had to stay til 6 and take the public transit home through the dregs of rush hour.
The good news is that I won't have to live like a pauper anymore... I've got money going into the bank now.
The company is gorgeous - really the most stylish place I've ever worked. The design of the whole place down to the very last detail is so, so sleek. There's even a pool table in the eatery and this giant, liquid crystal display screen in the lobby where I work.
Should be fun...

Sorta nervous about my first day of work tomorow - hope the phone lines aren't crazy busy.Went out with my two high school best friends tonight. Had coffee and just girl talked. It was great... I can always be so candid with them. I told them about what a good guy RGuy is. I told them about how he drove me to the hospital at 1 AM and stayed with me all night that time. In fact - I already miss him...

I'm rereading Wayson Choy's "The Jade Peony" - a great book.Got my first temp assignment! Starting Wednesday until the end of the month. It's a huge relief to finally be working. As you know, I've been itching to get off my ass. It's reception - and bonus, it's downtown. So maybe I'll have something more interesting to blog about soon...

Apparently I have at least two things in common with "old people":
One. I still mail in my bills - yes that's right, in an envelope with a cheque, put in the mailbox. G, who works at a bank, told me that they laugh at people who still do that.
Two. I like Jaguars. The car. My sister says it's an "old man car." I insist it won't be when I own one.

Okay, things with my mom and I have calmed down...appropriate, since it's Mother's Day.We're taking her out for Japanese food tonight.
I'm really really bored with my life right now. I'm sick of TV - I've had enough. What I really need to do is work. I need a job. I'm even sick of the internet. Ran out of books to read... I need hobbies...
