New job!!

Yes, I know I just started a job but unfortunately I didn't feel like it was working out so I got in touch with the recruitment agency who got me an interview the last time around. That interview went really well and they wanted me back for a 2nd one but at the same time I had three job offers on the table and didn't want to risk not getting a job so I accepted the job I'm currently at and turned down the 2nd interview for that company.

Anyway, the recruitment agency guy called me up last week and said that the same company were looking to hire for another job, and a much more interesting one as well. So yesterday I went for the interview and they called me back the same day and offered me the job!!! So I start next tuesday! I am so excited! What will I be doing? I will be Senior Operations Officer. That's gonna look good on my CV. Anyway, don't wanna write the company name but it's in education so I'm moving from the bad guys (online casino) to the good guys. And this company is a great place for building a good career since it is a well established one who often promote from within so this feels right!

Wohoo!!! So happy!

Yes, I'm alive

Yes I know I'm a shitty blogger but sometimes life comes first.

I'll try and do better. So what has happened?

Me and A are still not using the labels to describe whatever it is we are and I honestly don't care. We have lots of fun together, I like him and I know that he likes me so what's gonna change just cause we decide we're officially a couple? Nothing, that's what. So I'm sticking to calling him Mr Maybe. That's what I'm making everyone call him instead of my boyfriend. Apparently he is not telling his friends this cause more than one of them has used the girlfriend label on me. But I do think I've stopped panicking about it. That's gotta count for something, right??

Another plus for Mr Maybe is that I really like his family. Yes, despite us not using the labels I have met his parents...more than once actually...first time was on valentines day...yes we are weird and doing everything in the wrong order, I know this. Anyway, they're really sweet and they had us over for easter. His mom fed us delicious food and his dad made sure we drank way to much wine and champagne and it was just a really good time. I really miss my own family so being able to get along so well with his is just so good.

I have also started going on dates. No, of course not that kind of dates. What I mean is friend dates. Yes, there is such a thing and it is great! I decided I needed to meet some new people that I didn't meet through A so I found this website where people like me who are new in London can join and meet people just like me who is just after making some new friends. Might sound a bit weird but if people can do internet dating with the opposite sex then I can go on friend dates. I met this one girl on sunday for a coffee and had a really good time. Tomorrow I'm meeting another girl for drinks after work. I need to have my own friends that have nothing to do with A otherwise I'm gonna go bonkers. Really really miss my friends that I left back home as well. Don't know what u got til u aint got it no more. Except that's not true, I knew before moving that what I had is more than good.

With high hopes of a new update within a few days. Hopefully I have some news to share by then. Never know who is reading so I'd rather wait with telling just now. Fingers crossed people!
