Work?!?

Where do I start?

As you may know I have a new job. It's great! I'm loving everything that I have to do. I'm organizing my first fundraiser. What is it? A fashion show... bathing suit fashion show mainly. Summer starts on March here, so the fashion show is scheduled to be on the first week of March.

I have to find the location. The store. Get the stores to donate a piece of clothing to auction off, which is going to be a task on its own. Then I have to contact newspapers and radios to start publicizing it. I have to get the tickets done. Get models. Oversee rehearsals. Find a host, because if you have heard my audioblogs you know why I wouldn't like to put people through the horrors of listening to my magnified voice. I do have to do the introduction and the conclusion of the show, where I thank everyone for their support. And all of this, plus meetings and a bunch of little things, within a month. Sounds like a lot of work because it is. That is the life of the working person I guess.

Then there's the tutoring service. I work there in the afternoons from Monday through Thursday, sometimes Fridays. I usually get out at six... except now that I have another job. This last two weeks I've been leaving the tutoring service between 7 and 8 at night. Which of course leaves me with little time to do anything else, since offices here close at six. But it's great. Some of the kids I work with found out about the other job and they weren't to happy about it, since they thought that I was going to leave them. One of them walked up to me one day and told me that it was OK that I was leaving because they didn't need me. And then he walked away. That was sad. Then he apologized and said that he was going to miss me if I left, and I told him that I wasn't leaving. He was happy, and so was I.

Then we have the translations. I am working less and less on it, since my friend who is already a translator recently "acquired" a boyfriend (and I don't have one), so they are always hanging together, which makes it harder for us to get together. So now with the boyfriend she has less time to talk with her friends.... all of them. Why do we, as girls, do that? We let our relationships take over our lives. I guess that we have to learn not to do that, huh?

I start school next week, on Wednesday. Which is cool, because I only get to go once a week. So I'm going to tell you all about it next week after I go to class.

As for the weight loss. I lost one pound this week. Which I'll probably will gain this new week since I'm going out of the country in a few minutes with my mom and my dad, leaving Bebo behind with his dreadful girlfriend. That doesn't make me very happy. I just hope that I don't become and aunt nine months after this trip. *knocks on wood repitedly for it not to happen*.

So this is the update of my life for this week. I'll be seeing you around.
