5 years!

























it's been a while so here's an update about the last month:

-adrian and I celebrated our 5th year together. besides the usual mushy-lovey-dovey stuff (which i will save you all from here) i am mainly celebrating the fact that he's been able to stand me for this long and hasn't yet traded me in for a new one!

-i've started training for the 60k committment with the end cancer campaign. boy am i out of shape! i hope i make it to august!

-jay finally found a job that he loves and "jandrea" (my new "benifer name for Jay and Andrea) are now finally "dinks"! congrats guys!

-i've also started looking for a new job. not that I don't love what i currently do but there's been a large number of PR/Communication/Design jobs that has started popping up in the city so i figured i'd give it a try. i've forgotten how nerve-wrecking the whole interviewing experience is. i've had a few job offers since then but i'm going be like jay and wait for the dream job

-i'm off to a job interview later this week with guess who...2010 OLYMPICS! it'll be community relations for the whistler community...wish me luck!

-justin opened his online company! *i'm so proud* (rosy sniffles)

-the home and garden show that i've been working on for the last 3 weeks kicked off on wednesday. it's pretty successful so i'm glad that i spent the time on it but next year, please count me out.

-i got suckered into doing an HR basics class through IKEA and now not only am i a bit "ikea-ed out" but i've also been thoroughly brainwashed...my brain hurts

alrighty, that's it for now - nothing too exciting

life outside of working

i've been doing a bit of interviewing for new jobs lately. not that i don't like my current job but i'm just looking for a change. the interviewer at one of the companies, jokingly (i think) pointed out that i don't seem to have anytime for fun and what the heck did i do outside of work... so yes i think i'm coming to terms with the fact that i'm an unhealthy workaholic. so there's a few things that i'm going to start doing - i've decided that i'll be doing the 60k end breast cancer walk with my friends, i'm going to harbour dance and get back into dancing for fun, and finally i'm going to take more trips with adrian. that's my new year's resolution - i'm going to play more!
