Merry Christmas!!

I can't believe it's been over a week since I've been on here to do any updates!!! I'm all settled in my office and the above is a picture of my window. Coincidentally I was told I'm not allowed to have stuffed toys in my office....but I don't care!!!! :P

Since starting this new job, I've learned so so much. And to be quite honest I really love my job so far. Yeah I know it hasn't even been a week - but still - I'm quite happy. And my office is gorgeous!!!

I'm super duper excited for Christmas this year!!! It's a lot of firsts for me this year and I'm so so very happy!!!! I'm really looking forward to 2011 and seeing what the New Year will bring.

To all of my friends and loved ones - Please have a Merry Christmas! I love you all from the bottom of my heart and I will be thinking of you all!! You've all touched my heart and have all made me smile and laugh till it hurts. The greatest gift of Christmas this year for me is your continued friendship, love and support. xoxox Always, Colleen. :)

On another note - One more week till my new job starts!!! Woo hoo!!!

Since I'm off tomorrow I decided to add another post. The above pic is a post-it note that I sent to one of my clients. This is what he sent back in response :

Bwahahahahaah - Totally made my day.

Have a good weekend!!

Whoever said I don't get my daily dose of veggies can think again. Mahaha

On a side note - a conversation this morning made me think of my family. I miss my mom and Grandpa.... Pick up the phone mom!!!  :P

Congratulations!

Time for a Change...

I've been working within the same company for about 10+ years... this is a picture of me and Orest. We took this pic about 5 years ago.... I can't believe I wore grey eye shadow like that. LOL. In any case Orest was my boss and also a mentor to me. I moved away from his branch to embark on a journey of investment and financial planning. 5 years later... it seems that our laughs are going to be reunited. I've officially decided to go into management - give it a try. I'm actually looking forward to it. I think it will help me grow as a person and will also help expand my career.

I've already started some correspondence with regards to my job with Orest. I've made demands of both coffee in the morning and also valet service. I also demanded an exact measurement of my office and also requested larger windows. 

The last request that I asked of him was in regards to the color of my new business cards. Personally I happen to really like having black business cards.....I just happen to think they are prettier. In any case Orest told me that my new business cards will be white. I decided to be a brat and demand black ones and we argued for about half an hour over email regarding this issue. I don't think anyone really won the battle..... but I got this in the mail today.......

When I confronted him about it, his response was this " I just wanted to make you happy and meet your demands "

LOL

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

Last night I watched the new Disney movie Tangled with a gf of mine. I immediately fell in love with it and I can't stop thinking about it. This is a movie that I will definitely be buying on DVD the moment it comes out. It's got good dialogue, humour and a great love story. I will also be forcing a special someone to watch it as well. Moo hahahaah.

On another note a friend is leaving Edmonton today to go on a new adventure of his own. This is a special shout out to him.

Froilan - I hope you have a wonderful time. I hope that with each experience you grow as a person and learn more about yourself. Remember to always stop and smell the roses. Also remember - home is where you make it.  :)

Your pipes will be missed by your friends. Bwahahaha
