monday's at work are quite random. i never know what is going to happen. well really any day at work, but i feel like there have been quite a few random things happen today.
so i check and reply to the email every morning, it is quite easy and most of it i forward upstairs to trish, because it is about international students. so i opened up the email and had to laugh, i had an american student emailing me in cork, to ask about accommodation in dublin for the summer. it is a 4 hour drive away. it just made me laugh.
then i had a cute little asian women come in and ask if i could call her friend, she was trying to get to her friends house and was lost, so i rang her and she came and picked her up.
and then i get a girl asking where the education department is. its not like it is the office next to us or anything. it is across campus.
as well as 3 phone calls asking to speak to random offices on campus, so i attempt to look them up and transfer the calls.
seriously i think we are the office of answers, like people get sent to our office because we know the answers for anything or we'll look it up. i swear about a quarter of the stuff i do doesn't pertain to accommodation or student societies. oh well.
had a pretty productive weekend for once. friday after work i met up with kara and we went into the city, i needed to get a few new tops, so we had fun doing that and shopping, which i hadn't done in a while, and luckily everything was on sale so for 40 euro i ended up with 6 short sleeved tops all in fun colours and a super comfy grey scoop neck long sleeve. friday night i wasn't feeling too good so i just read for fun and watched some dvd's.
saturday morning i finished putting together the thesis notes binder. yay! it is done with as many notes as i have now, and when i get new sources i'll have to add to it, but it is seriously like 250 pages of typed notes which will make my thesis. yay, so now i just need to take alllll those notes and make some sense out of it. then i watched some quality tv and cut up the other set of notes into individual sources so when i write i can easily quote things and cite. whoohoo. then i called my mom to wish her a happy birthday and we talked for a while and after that i just relaxed and hung out with kara.
sunday i was kinda lazy, but the weather was just so dreary, it was a cup of tea and bed day. i met up with kara for the gym (so i was semi productive) and then spent most of the afternoon in bed with a book, imed with amy for a while and then started to write the thesis. go me!
today was the usual monday, work from 9-5, met with kara for lunch and then i've been kinda blah, watched home and away and i just have nooo motivation right now to do work.
but i move next tuesday!!!!
yay! i just talked to my new landlord and i can move in next tuesday! so i'm excited to pack and go through my stuff and figure out what i can get rid of and take some clothes down to the charity shops so that makes me excited, plus a new place to live! as of right now it is only me and another girl in a 4 bedroom house, so i'm hoping to use one of the extra bedrooms as a study where i can write my thesis. yay! soooo excited to move and to get out of this house!!
ok, time to do something productive today!
