Home for the weekend

Home for the weekend

So, I went home for the weekend.

My mom didn’t last long and got a dog from the pound just a few days ago. Her name is Eva and she’s a tricolored Collie. Very adorable, but a little slow and a little fat. She will need to lose about 15 pounds or so. Her previous owner was an old lady who obviously spoiled her with food and wasn’t able to go on long walks with her. But she is a total sweetheart. She also gets along with Max and Lilli, which is very important since they’re going to stay with her for good.
They’re just not happy at my place, ’cause they don’t have the possibility to go outside, and here at my mom’s place there’s no problem. They will have to stay inside for 2-3 weeks, until they get used to their new home and then my mom will let them go outside. Yay for happy kitties. 🙂

Work is good, doing more over-hours that I would like to, but oh well, what can you do? There’s a lot to do, which is great, ’cause the day passes faster. The new department is actually a lot better than I thought, people are really nice and teamwork is great. I’m only responsible for making flight offers, so I don’t have answer any phonecalls, that’s awesome! 😀

Other than that there’s still not very much going on in my life. Well, ok partly there is, I admit it, but it’s nothing to tell here on the blog. 😉

I’m sure I will miss my little kitties, but it’s good to know that they will be happy and that I will be able to see them from time to time, whenever I come back home.

New stuff!

New stuff!

Last week was really nerve-wrecking for me. At work they decided to put me into yet another department. And I really really didn’t want that for several reasons. I was annoyed and pissed off ever since I was told. On Friday I went to talk to my boss again (not the big bossman!) and told him that I didn’t want to go into the new department. And while I still have to work for Foxy Bingo Promo Code, things have relaxed quite a bit, since I’m going to do something different than usually planned. I will be responsible for booking flights for customers. I will have to get back into it all, but don’t think that will be much of a problem. I guess now I’m actually looking forward to it.

A lot of things have happened in my life lately, but those are not really for my blog. If you have access to my LJ you will be able to read more about it there.

Update on my life

Update on my life

And again, I haven’t made a decent post in quite a while… I’m trying, I really am 😉

So what’s new? I’m still working at the same company, but in a different department. And that was a real life-saver. I’m not on the credit card project anymore, which means the big boss-man can’t yell at me anymore. I’m now working in the travel agency callcenter, which is in a different building, so I’m out of his way completely. Haven’t seen him in about a month now and I feel so much better now. No more being afraid in the morning on my way to work. Everything is very relaxed now, and I am actually doing what I learned. It can be a bit annoying sometimes, some of the people you get on the phone can be really daft. 😉 But it’s nice that they’re always so thankful. Like yesterday I had a lady on the phone who messed up two airline bookings and needed them cancelled free of charge. I called the airline twice for each booking in hopes of getting different people on the phone. First call went well, the guy I had on the phone (sooooo queer!) was really nice and cancelled it for free. I called again 5 minutes later and guess what? I had the same guy on the phone. Just great… not what I had planned. And he recognized me right away, too! But yay, he also cancelled the second booking free of charge. The lady from the travel agencyso was soooo happy and grateful, like I saved her day. Things like that make you feel really good. 🙂
Now I’m off work until Tuesday due to the Easter holidays. Yay! Doing absolutely nothing for four days! Well, not absolutely nothing. Tomorrow I’m driving to Forchheim to get some garden chairs for my balcony. And I’m going to look for a kitchen shelf I can put on the wall. Really need some storage space in there. For best MIG welder please contact us.

So I think that’s it for now. Nothing else to tell, nothing I can think of anyway.

Happy Easter everyone!

Nothing important

Nothing important

I keep telling myself that I’d write in here more often, but somehow I never do. And I don’t really write much in my LJ either, mainly random stuff, more serious posts are quite rare.
Well, I can guess I can write a bit about my new life, don’t you think?
Moving wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be. Living alone is quite nice actually. Though, admittedly, I’m not alone anymore. Just a few weeks ago I got these two sweethearts from a shelter. Max and Lilli are brother and sister and about 14 weeks old. They keep me very busy by running all around the flat like maniacs, but when they calm down they are so cute. The like to cuddle up on my stomach, and keep purring like crazy. Gotta love them!
My new flat is wonderful too, while you’re looking at pictures, you can take a look at the flat, too. Isn’t it nice? My personal favorites are the gallery in the living room and the walk-in closet in my bedroom. Lots of space for clothes and shoes. What more could a girl dream of? 😉
Work is great, too. They put me on a project just a few days after I started there and I’m so glad they did. I met some very nice people. The department I’m sitting in (mainly for projects) has very nice people, it was very easy for me to make friends. Just a little over a week ago I had a girls-only evening at my place with two of my colleagues. It was very fun and I’m sure we’ll do it again soon. Only bad thing about it was the headache I had the next morning. :p

I really thought I’d miss home lots more than I actually do. But then again, it was about time I moved out from home, don’t you think? 😉 It’s not like I had to leave many friends behind, I had grown apart from most of them anyway, by having led completely different lives. And well, the select few I’m still friends with, I will keep in close contact with them.

Don’t really know what else to write right now. There’s nothing more to tell. Well, of course there is, but that’s more private and will go into my Livejournal. :p

It’s all over now

It’s all over now

Had my last exam today, so now I’m a full blown travel agent. I should be really happy about it, but for some reason I’m not. I mean it’s great and all, but it also means goodbye. On Saturday I will be out of here. And I will leave behind some new friends that I will really miss. It’s quite sad. I will try to stay in contact with them, but you know how it goes. Contact will get rare and finally fade away…

I got my school grade report today and I’m absolutely speechless. I’m second best in my class. Not only did I get a certificate for outstanding achievements, but I also got a gift coupon worth 12 Euro for a book of my choice. Only two people in my class got that. I’m so happy, this is just amazing. Through the final exams I was actually able to up my accounting grade to a 1 (equals an A). My average is 1.4 in all exam subjects. 1.3 with everything altogether.
Now there’s only the final oral exam on Wednesday next week, but I don’t have to worry about that anymore. I passed! There’s nothing that can go wrong. I need 30 points which equals a 5.5 and that’s nothing. I will be much better than that.
*dances all over the place* I’m so happy!

Stressed out!

Stressed out!

Yes, and the week only just began. *sighs*
Everything in the agency is being changed around and nothing works anymore. I can’t issue train tickets, I can’t issue flight tickets, nothing! Ugh! This is annoying as hell, and I’m so frustrated it’s not funny anymore. Someone please come and save me from this!

Hello again

Hello again

I really think I should post more in my blog to keep you guys who don’t have access to my LJ updated on what’s going on in my life.
Right now I’m at work, but can’t really do anything since stuff is being changed here and my access to the flight database is blocked. Actually I just checked again and it’s not blocked anymore, but now all the data is gone. Which means everything has been switched over and I’ll have to uninstall and reinstall our program, oh yeah. so looking forward to that. Please cross your fingers for me that it will work without any problems. I want to relax this weekend and not have to worry about work. Blah.
This weekend my mom and me will start baking christmas cookies. Weeeee! Tonight will be decided which ones will be made. That’s what I especially love about Christmas. Baking all different kinds of cookies! Yay! My brother will come over Christmas and we’re still waiting to hear back from my sister. Hopefully she will come too. That would be a wonderful Christmas. All family together again. Well, besides my dad of course, but I’m not sure I miss him after all that’s been going on lately, and what I heard…
