Can everyone tell how much i miss the beach and my "lost" holidays? Stupid work!

Thanks to everyones whos hit my site and either commented or tagged me! Btw, how was your holidays Addy? I better check out your site and see whats been blogged! :P Quite honestly though, i think i was inspired by your soft, calming pastel colours! It made me think of the beach and the summer i was missing out on.. so heres my layout! Gives me a little something to look at.. not that i like looking at chicks.. though..i really love Josies Maran's swimming costume there. Unfortunately i couldnt pull that off for the life of me.. i have a "floatation tube" as Wil Anderson said in todays City Weekly.

See what happens when i get bored? I start reading whatevers given to me.

Anyways..onto my day! Its been an exciting and dissappointing day all in one go! haha. Let me explain..

I spent the wee hours of this morning finishing off parts of this layout. I finished it aaggggggggessssss ago..i just needed to add the finishing touches and actually put the thing up! That in itself was exciting.. too bad noone was online for me to tell that it was up! I love seeing ppl's reactions.

Another exciting aspect.. i redyed my hair. My foils were originally red..but they washed out.. so i did them myself just a few minutes ago. I used HOT CHILLI. As in the colour name..not the real things! :) I quite like it now..! Looks kinda fudge like cos my hair was bleached previously for the foils..so the colour turned out really well. Except for the smell it leaves behind...i love it! Almost as much as Mindy loves her straightened hair! lol

Moving on...over the past few weeks..i've been applying for jobs.. to NO avail. I pretty much forget about that as soon as i send them off.. so it was no surprise when i checked my email today..i got 3 rejection letters. I think i'm beyond the hurt and rejection stage. I've learn to go with the flow... the good thing that DID come out of that..is that the agency that was advertising the job has enlisted me and said they'd contact me as soon as they get similar jobs and think i'm suitable for.

That saves me a bit of time trying to actually GET an AGENT for now.. i havent had the time to actually do it yet. Another good thing, is that.. i got a reply from someone i randomly sent my resume to. They said they've forwarded me onto the Human Resources Department.. and another Company i've never heard of..cos there was a position there they heard about and thought i might be suitable for.

Also..on the job agenda.. i was talking to one of my co-xerox workers and they said they heard that there was an IT job opening at Mallesons. It was insider news and i feel priviledged! I hope something comes out of it. I'm gonna go visit the department 2moro and see if i can talk to anyone about what the position will be and stuff....*fingers crossed*

Now..onto the dissappointing news.. i brought these pants last week...that i havent worn yet.. but i wanna wear them 2moro.. only they're a bit too long. I asked my mum to fix them for me.. but she didnt want to..cos she was tired.. so i did it myself. Everything was going good..i was cutting, overlocking and everything. it wasnt until i put the hem back up and then tried them on...that i realised.. they're a TAD too short. I cut off a bit tooo much! Its all my mums fault...lol..nah JK!

Anyways..i have to call Mindy back now! See u guys all 2moro i hope..

OR on Sat. where the rest of us are going to Bondi Beach to spend the day...what a fun weekend its gonna be! Cant wait! Laters!
