Hi everyone! Let me give you an update of this week's news bulletin:-D Saturday was Open day. I arrived quite early so went and got myself a large cookie from a petrol station nearby, I was overly stuff by the time I had finished but I’m glad I ate it because little did I know we were going to be really short staffed and I’d be doing four tours across Southwood and Mansion site! It was a killer! Although both sites are considered to be under one campus, which is our Avery Hill campus, there is an enormous park between the two sites, and having to go there and back four times, I was completely shattered by the end of it :( Strangely enough the Open day was not AS busy as it normally is, but still busy enough to keep me on my feet all day. I was there from 8-4 and time was eventually beginning to fly. Around about 2pm, I was counting the minutes.
I felt like I didn’t really have a weekend as on Sunday I had a packed schedule. I had relatives coming over at around 11am (grr) spent some time with them. At 12pm I had my first driving lesson ever! It was amazing! Me driving? Woooo! I drove for 35mins! I thought it was just going to be for 10 and that too around the block but nooo, we covered 3 different areas in that space of time. My next lesson is tonight; hopefully this runs just as smoothly. My instructor gave me some feedback and for a newbie who has not ever driven a car I caught on pretty quickly and that I was ‘fantastic’. Hehe I thought he was just feeding me lies because I’m new but he genuinely meant it! Great stuff! When I got back home from my driving everyone was asking me how it went etc... my sister in law made a comment to my dearest dad suggesting that soon his car will not be home very much as I’ll be taking it out all the time and this comment triggered my dad to tell the truth that I will not be insured on his BMW sports :( He said he would rather buy me a new car for myself that is less expensive because if I do cause an accident it’ll be cheaper and so would the insurance be too. Great (!) Anyhow, back to my original story, I sat down to eat with some hot noodles enjoying an average movie on tele starring Jennifer Aniston, and the doorbell rings. Arghhh another set of cousins (who btw did not inform us they were coming!) I had to sit in the dining room to finish off my lunch, that too on my own.
Work has been extremely busy especially on Monday and Tuesday. Lots of calls, just the way I like it. I am looking forward to this three day weekend, I will probably just eat, sleep watch tele! Oh and SHOP! Must do that this weekend! Need a new pair of boots! My comfy ones' sole came off and I had to double side tape it on Wednesday. It survived the heavy rain on the way home! And off they went in the bin :) on the bright side... NEW SHOES:-D. I have said too much, write to you people next week xxx
