Career Girl Path of Life

Mmm. Mmm. Soon there will be entry about self on Core's website. Had to write it today whilst eating a wrap using keyboard as plate. Have no idea what put. Hopefully something good. It will be on www.corecruitment.com

Really good thus far being a career girl. Spending a good solid 10-11 hours in office each day - which is nothing since every morning when get there everyone is already in, and when pack up to high-tail it home everyone is still there! Maybe having competition: "Who can spend most time at work"? Although. Not complaining. Is definitely BEST job have ever had, and seems really good so far. Yes! Am going to recruit people for the Tourism and Hospitality Industry. (On a completely unrelated tangent - once one has left hotels, there really is NO going back!!!)

Going for drinks tomorrow after work. But have loads to do on Saturday. Must be careful not to fall into old patterns of only ever hanging out at the pub and never getting anything done and just sleeping all of Saturday and Sunday.

London!

And so have arrived at my destination and already got fantastic job paying loads of money working from home! Or not.

But at least had suit on today, went for interview/chat with Bianca which was cool. Hope now things will really take off! :)

Almost there...

Going to London tomorrow morning! Feeling rather nervous about it, and haven't been nervous about traveling for ages.

Have just spent weekend with family north of Stockholm, where things were much the same as always. Followed pretty much the same schedule every day:

08.00 Get up
08.10-10.00 Sit at kitchen-table and discuss how insane the neighbours are (drink lots of coffee and eat bread)
10.00-11.00 Visit dad and Kajsa, where dad is digging huge hole in backyard to put pool in - never mind it's freezing cold and rains all the time turning hole into mud bath, and Kajsa is painting all the doors inside house white
11.30-15.00 Visit step-sister and baby in town (that baby loves carrots)
15.30-17.00 Cook, sit at table and drink coffee and discuss how insane the neighbours are
17.30-18.00 Eat
18.00-22.00 Sit at kitchen-table and read / do crosswords / discuss how insane the neighbours are

:) Well. Pretty much!

Actually was really good to see everyone.

Right. Have until 5pm to pack all my stuff, as sending one bag to London with a friend - as have far too much stuff already. Do not feel like starting one bit. Maybe will have cup of tea and watch Oprah, then will do it.

Update - Sweden

The Disney-story is not coming along great. I have postponed writing it indefinitely. Was ages ago anyway and possibly can not remember much.

Goals this week whilst at home:
1. Exercise everyday (tho not three days that already passed)
2. Eat healthy
3. Learn Excel and Word perfectly using 1000 page folder from computer-course mother took at work - so can say in interviews that am very good with computers
4. Write to FS London
5. Write to agencies (first perfect resume)
6. Buy shoes (already done actually so can cross it off!!)

Will get up at 7 and get started. Will definitely not waste entire week watching TV and baking. Will prepare for career.

Want career where am required to sit in bed at night with laptop on pillow and moan about the workload (so can have plenty of tea-breaks during day). No, really. Just want bearable monday-friday job.

Just resisted temptation to pray. Oh dear.

MILL VILL has come back to haunt me... story will follow...

Resting inside the actual exhibit, before a long 10 hours of trying to avoid doing "the spiel" (don't worry - inside joke).



The snowman (made of ice), inside the winter-egg (don't worry - inside joke).



Another well deserved rest in the exhibit.



Anna and Johan at Vista Way (just thought was good pic of me).
