ho hum.

my boss called a few days ago to ask if i can come in today and yesterday. i was going to say no, cuz i don't really want to work here again, but... there were these skirts i wanted, so i said yes to today and no to yesterday.

so now i'm sitting here, not caring whether i'm doing any work. i could've done everything i've done today in an hour, but i stretched it out to 4 hours. so now i have 2.75 hours to kill. then it's time for home!! yay. it's not that i'm not doing my job, it's just that i have nothing to do and i'm not motivated to go ask someone for work.

last nite's CA night went pretty well. i was unsure about the whole thing because i don't like going to these functions without knowing anyone. i always feel like such a fool cuz i have no idea what i'm talking about or i'm not prepared enough. but last night was different, for the first time, i realize that being a graduate means that i know stuff. stuff that first and second years don't know. so while they stood there asking redundant questions littered with "like" or "uhm" or "like, ok", i was able to formulate pretty good questions to ask the reps. i guess that the fact that i desperately need an accounting job made my brain work properly too. i think it was a very successful night, got the cards of recruiting reps from the big four plus a couple of others. i'll definitely call them for follow up in the coming days.

as we were driving out back to t.o, i completely missed the entrance to the 401. while i freaked, edward calmly told me to get off at the next exit. and then we got lost. hahah. it should've taken us 5 minutes to get back on the highway. but instead, it took us... uhm.. 45 minutes. we went west when we should have gone east. oops. in our defense, we didn't have a map or a working compass. it was just a lot of "oh, it's victoria! let's go left" and "oh, it's queen street! and king! wait, where are we?" bah. so much for race. i totally couldn't be the driver. i'd have to be the navigator. with a map.

time for: some more pretending to work. the cat is completely out of the bag though, the guy behind me can see my monitor. bah, he said he had nothing when i feebly asked him if he had any work for me to do. good enough.
