i took the red pill

well i took the red pill, i stepped thru the doorway, now theres no turning back. Im here in wonderland, now lets see how deep this rabbit hole goes!!!

how do you close pandora's box once its been opened?

i have emerged from the trial by fire, metamorphed and energised and motivated by the experience.

dont you hate it when

you become a slave to your own desires.
that something previously semi unthought of can become all you can think about.
funny how something you have always held onto, can suddenly seem ok to let go.
to boldly go where this wolf has not gone before.

i stand upon the threshold of a new era, and a new dimension to myself.
i tremble with fear and nervous excitment.
all i have to do is that that one step, to start the journey in motion, and the rest is out of my hands, and ill be along for the ride with no brakes and no control.

but isnt life just like that?

Here we go again

Man, i just got my next round of training schedules.

ill be clicking my heels a lot reciting "theres no place like home, there sno place like home"

12 - 16 March Perth
2 - 5 April Melbourne
16 - 19 April either Brisbane or Adelaide
1 - 4 May either Brisbane or Adelaide

which actually leaves me 5 working days to create a whoel new course and redesign another course into 2 seperate courses.

sigh - i love a challenge

Have you heard about the lonesome loser

i just found out, that on my birthday (this week), my entire team will be out of the office, so i will be sitting alone all day in my office :(

have been tempted to go get a party hat and sit at my corner desk with it on all day, occaisionally blowing one of those party horns.

i feel like Dr Zoidberg

Queen Mary Visits Sydney !

last time i saw this mother of a ship, was in Hamburg, at the harbour Birthday celebrations. Nice to see her on the other side of the world.

seems, just like the Germans, we aussies go crazy over this ship. traffic today around the city has gone mental !

Then later todaty the QE2 comes in as well.. its the first time that both ships have been in the harbour at the same time since the war.

just what we need at Mardi gras time, 2 more queens coming to Sydney

the travel curse continues

what a day friday was.

left the office in perth with heaps of time, but due to APEC there were no cabs in the city, and so by the tim ei got one and got to he airport, i had missed my 4pm flight back to sydney. so i had to wait 8 hours for the next flight to leave at 12.15am. and if thats wasnt bad enough, the flight lands in sydney at 6.15am, but is actually only 3.5 hours long, so you lose a whole night. i thought, hmmm at least ill get a bit of sleep on the flight, since normally i dont have any problems sleeping, ut unfortunately i had this dim witted, overweight chick sitting next to me, who im sure wasnt playing with a full deck, who took it upon herself to intrude on my space, and constantly move and brush against my arm, thus keeping me awake the whole flight. by the end of it i was ready to punch her in the face, and for me to get that riled, you know it was serious.

totally fucked up my weekend, and had to play catch up sleep for most of it. got home feeling like i had been run over by a truck......
anyway, boss has given me friday off to make up for it, so at least shes understanding of it. so theres my silver lining,

Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane

i can see the red tail lights..... oh god, i hate that song.... only becuase everyone sings it to me. (that and danny boy)

today is my last day in Perth, and ill be very glad to be getting home, only because im kinda over travelling..... NEVER thought i would say that, but it would be nice to have at least a week at home.

has been nice here, the trainees are good, although this last lot have tried my patience a little ... but it is all about learning tricks and techniques to control my class. so its all a learning process and an opportunity to learn.. so all good.

have been plagued by IT issues yet again...bain marie of my life kimmie! where systems problems have prevented me from properly training some aspects. sigh.

on the plus side, i discovered, during the course of my training, some pretty hefty bugs (program errors) in the training version which was about to go live the next day. would have caused absolute chaos if they had released the version, so i ended up getting a personal thank you call from the head of technology (from NZ) COOL!

so... onto a 4 hour flight tonight. will prob sleep a bit.

now onto the bad news (actually its not so bad) but looks like i have to come back to perth again for 3.5 days sometimes in the next 2 weeks to run another course, plus i got a call from the business tech dept, in which i may need ot train all of the account managers in something, which would mean a road show for me flying to Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth, each for one day. i could either do it as a non stop round trip, or i could do it as day returns... which actually would mean more freq flyer points.

but this does play havok with my social life. i guess im feeling very disjointed from my life right now. having been around the world for 5 months and constantly being in new places and new people surrounding me and living out of a suitcase, then coming back home to reconnect to my life, but then finding a job in which i travel a fair bit, has meant i have found it hard to reconnect, and now im feeling the brunt of this. although my good friends know what im going thru and it isnt a case with them on how often i see them as the bond is and always will be there, but does lead to feeling a little lonely as lots of time spent in hotel rooms on my own. i will survive however!
