I'm so annoyed right now

Mostly at myself for not doing this stupid assignment earlier and partly because no one is around and I need to get things signed off. Yes I shouldn't have left it untill the last possible seccond to get statistical aproval or my supervisors aproval but I did and I am the only one to blame. Gggggrrr.

Well at least its pretty much done now. I have done the hardest part wich was the writing of the introduction and literature review. Honestly if I can't get in touch with Ryan today I'm going to just quit tonight. The reason I am so stressed about it is that it is due tomorrow and I am going up to Whangarei to see my parents and help my sister with Chemistry as she has exams comming up soon and I sympathise with her as I had the same 7th form chemistry teacher.

Must carry on with my quest to find Ryan and go insane in the process . . . hey wait a minute, thats already happend at least once already. I might be really mean and go into Chartwell tonight as they have late night on Thursday and this is the first Thursday I have had off since I started. Appart from the fact that this will be very mean it will make me feel alot better.

Donovans' Wedding

Well it was Ricks' brothers wedding on Saturday and it was really interesting. I've never been on the male getting ready side of things for a wedding seen as the first wedding I was involved in I was a bridesmaid and Rick was the best man. So I got to be in the midst of the female side of things, and the next wedding I was involved in ws my own. I guess I got things from a new perspective and realised that the guys go through pretty much the same emotions the girls do. I had my lovely new dress on from Max as well as my new shoes and cardi. I looked pretty o.k I think. Rick was his best man so he didn't need a new outfit (hehe).

The wedding was quite religious but not too over the top, in saying that tho, I got a bit sick of the constant 3 people union thing (Donovan, April and the Lord), but hey each to their own right. I'm going to attemt to put pictures up and as soon as I do you guys will get to see them.

Just one more assignment to do then I am finished with the whole masters concept. If I pass the papers I can get a post grad diploma in science and if I decide in 10 years to do my masters all I have to do is the thesis. If I fail one paper I can keep the rest in the bank until a later date and complete my masters whenever. If I fail two papers I can't do my masters again. At the moment that doesn't really bother me what with the teaching and all, I think I just want to earn money at the moment.

So it's back to the assignment unfortunately. Untill next time.

Yes! I'm in.

I rang the teachers colledge person and she told me that I got in and didn't need to have an interview, which apparently was out of the ordinary. I recieved my acceptance letter today and just have to send in a little piece of paper saying that I accept the palce and stuff. I am eligible for $10,000 from the government with $5000 as soon as I am accepted and $2500 once I graduate and $2500 after spending 20 weeks in a state school. Yay for free money. I am so excited.

I am getting so much crap at work at the moment. I can't wait untill next Tuesday when it all goes away. I a looking forwards to my new job at Ceramix, but have no idea what to wear. I a so used to relying on Glassons for my clothes. I guess the best thing will that I will be able to buy my clothes at other places and wear clothes that are out of season again. One thing I am glad of tho is I kinda have dress sense now, where as before I really didn't.

All I seem to do at the moment is work tho, so over labour weekend I am going to go up to Whangarei and spend some time with my sister and help her with her Bursary exams. She has the worst chemistry teacher in the world and I feel so sorry for her. So I guess I'll just have to help where I can.

Lastly congratulations to Johnny and Chaykham for taking the first step to wedded bliss. It's pretty good from experience (hehe).

Its a changin men (hehe)

Well I am about to resign from my job at Glassons and I feel pretty nervous about it. I have been having problems for a while now and have finally decided to do something about it. I have a new job at a place called Ceramix over in Te Rapa. This means on Saturdays I will be able to have lunch with Rick, which will be awesome. Yay for no more Glassons.

Other than that, I have applied for teachers collage and they have my application and my referee reports but they rang me today and want to talk to me. I don't know what about yet but thats all good.

Wish me luck as I am going to Chartwell in 20 min. Will let you know how it went.
