my life, so...blah
May. 4th, 2008 06:23 pmYou may wish to skip, just need to get this all down.
gym
Only made it twice this week (but given what a nightmare this week and next week are, I’m not beating myself up), the second time was this afternoon. I’ve gone from doing level 2 to level 4 on the cross trainer, and have upped my treadmill level by one level and will go up another soon. Still failing to do much on the step machine, blergh. I'm creeping my weights up a bit too, and now manage to actually do the full reps for my abdominal exercises.
work
We're supposed to be wrapping up this stage of the project on Monday, and exporting the data, but as of late this week, people are still trying to send me info ::headdesk:: The deadline was like a month ago! Plus, I have to train new guy on how to do this next stage. And I have to train my new boss in EVERYTHING, she starts on Monday.
uni
Had an exam yesterday that was fairly horrible, and spent 4 hours at the library today working on a group assignment. Good news is that we've done a lot, and have time to finish off the rest before Friday.
job interviews
I had three this week for programs starting next year. Sort of three, anyway. Haven't heard back about the first one yet (though they were still on first round interviews on Friday it seems), I didn't make it through to the next round for the second one (dammit), and the third one...oy.
I haven't actually had the interview yet. I was there for three fucking hours on Friday (it was supposed to be two), but the partner I was due to interview with was out sick. I spent so long sitting around (plus info session, tour, short interview with HR manager, questionnaire), but they had a group of us in, and some of their latest grad hires hung out with us, so it wasn't boring (and was quite informative at times). But still a bigger investment of time than I wanted to make the day before an exam, AND I have to go back on Tuesday for the actual interview. Which is the day my new boss starts, dammit. Next week is gonna be almost as hectic as last week!
shows
Spent an exciting Saturday night at my sister's place, hanging out, eating her lasagne (mmmm) and watching this week's House and Criminal Minds. Now I just have Who x 2, SPN x 2, Bones x 3 and NCIS x 2 to catch up on. Sometime. Eventually.
