HOW EMBARRASSING

Well I just made the funniest mistake. There is these students from UVIC that have had a few meetings with people today so far. So Leona tells me to let Peter(the next interviewer) know that they are running a bit behind. That's all fine and dandy. My mistake was that they are with something called MBA but over the phone I assumed NBA. hahaha So i emailed Peter with not a care in the world claiming that these NBA students were running behind. Oh my goodness. I can only imagine the people making fun of me for days to come on that one. Besides that, like I have said before, Paging is the worst and is also very embarrassing. By now, I have practiced lots of the names and so it doesn't get to ridiculous but my first week here I can guarantee that everybody had this secret inside joke about the stupid receptionist who stutters on the phone and who can't pronounce names. I get even more nervous when I hear laughing right after my page. That is never a good sign.

Recently at work, I have started to notice that I talk to myself. I just get so bored sometimes and if no one walks past that I normally talk to then I am just talking to myself. Gotta be careful though, there could be anyone around the corner. Oh my goodness I know Movember is for a good cause but its so so so so disgusting. Some people just should not have facial hair. It makes everyone look so scary. I will definetly not be walking anywhere at night anytime soon. haha

It is now starting to get dark so early. This I hate because I feel like everything should be closed to so I'm stuck in an office all day staring outside as the sun rises and sets. boo hiss. And my favorite visitor just left for the day so now I'm stuck typing this probably super boring blog to you guys and awaiting my clean time in 9 minutes. Takes me 2 minutes to clean literally and then sometimes I like to sneak out a minute early. oo how rebellious of me. NOT barely anyone is here at that point anyway. Everyone is leaving now and it is so sad.

Another thing that makes me rage, is the set of lights on Beacon(main road in Sidney) where it meets the highway. It always seems to take forever and I just do not have patience for that kind of thing. Especially at lunch when I only have 30 minutes. The only nice thing about lunch is it is at 1:00 usually so the lunch hour rush has been to where they need to be and left. I even made it to Subway and back to work in that time. Of course the downside is you must eat your lunch really really fast in order to have time for everything. I suppose if I hadnt packed all my 'Glad" containers then I could have brought spinach salad like I had planned and purposefully bought for work this week. What a genius I am. I guess it is that time to clean. I hope ya'll enjoyed my venting about bad things and stories about good things. I won't be writing tomorrow as I have to move all day but Friday you can be updated on how the move went and how I like my new place. I'm personally just worried about the first sleep. Although I have Gizmo, it is always a weird feeling waking up and not remembering where you are or should be. I had that feeling the first night in my current place after mom and dad left. Wish me luck!!

Cheers
