Woke up this morning a little late, but still made it to the bus and train on time. When I met up with my friend at the train station, Rocio then suggested that we changed carriages and I hadn't brought it up. Funny thing was, that as we were walking down the platform she ended up meeting an old friend of hers. Which made me think how many other people we all know who may also catch the same train as us, but we have no idea as we stick to the same carriages each and everyday.
It was a little weird catching the old carriage that I used to catch, especially with someone that I know this time. I could also tell that it was making my friend uncomfortable, mostly because she told me that it was. I offered to only try this again on Mondays to be part of my final send off, instead of making this happen for the whole week. But it wasn't long before we got stuck into our usual conversation and the train ride was long over before we knew it.
Once I got into work not a lot was happening as we pretty much got stuck into thing right away, as there was a lot to get through especially with people wondering why things hadn't been paid as of yet. So you have two options, either focus on emails of people complaining or focus on invoices which need to be paid to make people stop complaining. Trying to balance the two can be difficult and you have to find a medium or at least hope that people let you know that they haven't been paid sooner rather than later.
Nick who had arrived from Jakarta the other day went around the team and gave everyone a small gift which he gave everyone, which was a very sweet thing to do. So I ended up wearing it on my wrist the whole day, mostly because it has a dragon on it and dragons are cool.
Ended up messaging my friend Rocio again to see if she wanted to go to the movies tomorrow to see the new Star Trek movie (yes it does seem that I'm in a Star Trek phase at the moment, and no I don't know why). She told me that she still wanted to, so I went and bought some tickets to be prepared for tomorrow in case they had sold out for the 6:30pm session which we wanted to go to. We're going to see it in 3D, and who wouldn't want to see Benedict Cumberbatch on the big screen and in 3D? *drools*
During lunch Gloria and I did a bit of shopping before we went to grab something to eat, and I decided before we headed off back to work to get one of the Tim Tam shakes from Gloria Jeans before heading back to work. Once we got back to work I started to chat with a friend of mine Sandra which I hadn't done in such a long time, especially since her team had a big change over. I felt back for not talking to her in such a long time, but we both also knew that she was so extremely busy that we would both would have received such stern looks for even chatting for a little bit.
Once 3pm rolled by a bunch of the staff gathered around the desk of Victoria, another girl who was leaving as it was her last day today and she was also moving to Queensland. She is honestly one of the most greatest people that I have ever known. Plus she is a cat person as well, so why wouldn't I think she is awesome? I personally know that she has such a great relationship with the staff not only of were we were but of the customers we help out to, that I think it's such a shame that the company is loosing such a great person. She even mentioned that she loved the people within the company, it just that she didn't like the job anymore.
Once everyone wandered back their desk, I was approached about a job which may suit what I'm looking for and if I was interested to let them know so that they can pass on my resume on to them. I said I'll read into it for now and will get back to them later, as I wanted to see how things were and wanted to get a second opinion from a close friend of mine first.
When it was finally home time, I noticed that there was a firetruck which had just arrived for the building across the road. This is the second time I saw a firetruck so close to near where I work in the past couple of days. I'm starting to think that there may be a fire bug in the area with the amount of times the fire brigade are called for the smallest things.
Once I got home I managed to get my hands on the first four original seasons of Doctor Who. So maybe once I finally done the whole Star Trek thing and caught up and finished The Original Series of Star Trek I can start from the beginning of Doctor Who, which I am really looking forward to. As for now, I'm about to watch the 2009 movie of Star Trek to get me up to date for the movie tomorrow!
