OK, it's hit
that time of the day when I can't be bothered doing anything more than the
minimum of work I can get away with, so I'll
daylog.
I think I've
finally got these
annoying people off my back about this problem they were having, due to
Cameron coming back to
work. (He's been here longer, he set up the
product, and he can talk to people a lot better than I can. Hence, they
respect him more). The annoying thing is, I fixed their
problem last week, and another problem came up, but they're treating it as if we haven't even done anything to help them since they first reported problems. Grr.
I have my
driving lesson tonight, a
double lesson, since I'm preparing to get my
license in early
December... I shouldn't be worried, but I always seem to
dread the lesson, even though it's never as bad as I expect, I'm not a
bad driver... I'm going to be
shitting myself the first time I get out on the road by myself though. I don't ever see myself just driving for the sake of
driving.
I have to ask to get my
test date changed too, since I accidentally
double-booked it with my first day of
Summer Semester at
uni. I doubt he'll be able to change it, but I need to ask. This is the sort of situation where I would rather just let it go and miss my first classes, rather than request the change, due to my low
conversational skill. I'm going to find it hard to bring up, I'm sure.
Stupid brain.
Anna was over last night, which was great, because I was expecting to have to go to her place, which is never as good (due to the extreme lack of
nakedness and
privacy). But she came over, and we got to watch our last
movie, and be close to each other all night,
emotionally,
physically and
mentally. Incredible.
I've only spent 5 dollars today, I'm proud of that. I'll need to keep it up to make sure I have enough money to pay my uni
fees up front next year.
I realised, during a work-related conversation, that I really don't have much time left here, on my
IBL year. I'm going on leave in 2 and half weeks, 3 weeks off, which pretty much brings me to
Xmas, so I won't be in here much till after
New Years... and then my contract finishes
January 15! So that's only just over a
month left of actual work. Wow. Then I'll be on
part time, and have so much more
free time, I might actually get some of the stuff done that I've been meaning to.
I just wish I didn't have to do a half hour
presentation about my year here. I'm not good at
public speaking, even if it will be to people I've been working with. Grr.
