A New Beginning

Yesterday was my last day of work and tomorrow I begin my new studies. Its a bit scary going back to studying after a long break but I have done it before and hopefully I can do it again. Its all part of the master plan.

Last night the place I worked at had their annual Christmas party which I went to as it would be my last time to celebrate with those people with whom I have worked with for more than a year now. It was an OK party and I got hit with a few surprises. I knew they were planning to give me a going away present (as I had seen the envelope with all the collected money and the list of people who had contributed.) But I did not know it was going to be that big.

The girl who organized everything had given me a ride that morning and before that she had said she needed to go into JBHiFi to get a gift card for her son who was having a birthday. I went with her there and after she finished she gave me a lift home. I was quite pleasantly surprised when that gift card ended up with the rest of the gifts that I got. The sneaky little thing! I also got a new schoolbag (*rolls eyes*) and an engraved pen and key chain set.

The party started at 8pm and it was on a boat which sort of cruised the Yarra river for four hours. Dinner and drinks were provided and there was music and lots of dancing. When it finished we were dead tired and went straight to bed when we came home. I guess Dina is still tired out from it as she is taking another nap right now.

Wish me luck for tomorrow!
