I'm loving jordin sparks and her song that seems to perfectly describe my life situation at the moment.
i haven't been posting a lot lately...for a long time now actually. I feel like i don't have much to say at the moment, i work and i'm enjoying that but i feel like not everyone wants to hear about how today i took a shot at forecasting next months sales etc etc. but right now i'm living and breathing work, unhealthy i know, but a necessity when you're in a management program that is as competitive as mine.
my meeting with mr. bird went really well, i was feeling like it was going to be a test and if it was then i passed with flying colours!! he told me i was, and i quote "a bright young lady with integrity, diplomacy and a future in the hospitality world" coming from the youngest GM in Delta history thats pretty big. he also said i had typical areas to develop in but i was expecting that, nobody is perfect and that is something i am learning and letting go of (finally)
the weirdest thing about the meeting was he asked me about my long term goals etc and for the first time that i can remember i don't have any 5 year or even 3 year plans. its scary but its also a bit freeing to know that i'm letting go of the certainty of a plan. for the first time in a long time i don't have anything to fall back on. i've picked everything up i've moved out here and i don't know a soul that was extremely brave of me, and i'm now just realizing...i was courageous in this move, in this stage of my life. i can't lose sight of that, because right now thats keeping me going.
PEI is great its beautiful but its hard to make friends here. people here are very set in their ways and its very closed circle, i find myself having to make more of an effort to meet people.
in the words of a wise man (jimmy hendrix) "I'm lonely but i know i'll be ok"

i feel a bit lost...and as a result john mayer is dominating my play-list
sometimes his music perpetuates the mood i'm in but sometimes his music can lift me to a better place...i'm not quite sure what its doing today
its been a weird couple of days, i def. have a house for next year which is nice, and i'm thinking about adopting a kitten from the humane society, but i'm not sure i'm ready for the financial obligations attached to that (vet visits, shots etc) but who is ever really ready?? i think a cat is the first step on the road to kids...but lets get one thing straight...my road to kids is long...very very very LONG possibly never ending...i guess my feeling of lost is coming from the fact that this semester i don't have a part time job and i'm not constantly busy with classes/work/trying to have a life. i'm not going out...i find myself staying in more and more often, doing work or reading. thats not such a bad thing but i feel myself becoming more and more anti-social.
on a lighter note i'm excited about the summer. either of the possibilities that i have been planning will be refreshing. a change if i go to the delawana i'll be outside and walking/running/biking everywhere, if i stay in guelph i'll be doing the same with a bunch of friends : )
well i'll keep shining till my light is gone

| You Are Rain |
 You can be warm and sexy. Or cold and unwelcoming. Either way, you slowly bring out the beauty around you. You are best known for: your touch Your dominant state: changing |
| Your Hillbilly Name Is... |
 |
| Your Candy Heart Says "Get Real" |
 You're a bit of a cynic when it comes to love. You don't lose your head, and hardly anyone penetrates your heart. Your ideal Valentine's Day date: is all about the person you're seeing (with no mentions of v-day!) Your flirting style: honest and even slightly sarcastic What turns you off: romantic expectations and "greeting card" holidays Why you're hot: you don't just play hard to get - you are hard to get |
