So last weekend saw this years Wholesaler Challenge between Sunlover and Qantas Hols. It is always usaully a big rivalry with plenty of good hearted fun and sillyness. This year was no different. With 12 of us from Sunlover and 9 from Qantas we had a great weekend at Movieworld and the Paradise Resort Gold Coast. We spend the time fooling around on the rides, drinking having a fantastic time. Also got to go see Tempo Rouge at the casino. But the best part of the weekend… WE WON!!!

We finally took the trophy back from Qantas and that means that we can now claim the trophy (its being presented on 09Jun). It was a great weekend, plenty of goodies including our prizes of a nights free accommodation and two tickets to the Australian Outback Spectacular (i get to go again yay!).

I’ve decided to take my friend Morgan when she gets back from the UK. I have to use them up before Christmas so morgan if your reading this COME HOME NOW!

Thank god it is almost over!!!. At the moment i am sitting at my new desk in the Specialist team (Michelle if you read this i am on a break =p ). The guys seem like a great bunch and I am really looking forward to this.

Today is day 11/11 of these days that I have been working so hard. My brain has been full of so many different things this week with going between one team to the other and home life as well.

I would really love to be able to understand where my brain is at the moment but some how i think if i try to comprehend it, it wont work that well. I shall update more probably on Sunday after i get back from Kristie’s wedding. I am really looking forward to it and shall be a great weekend.

Off to get a hair cut this afternoon and pick up a few bits and pieces before i head off to the coast tommorrow morning. Hoping that I can also catch up with the guys at SEQ’s on Saturday night.

35 minutes to go!!!

YAY!

Its day 5 of my 11 day week. It’s getting rough at the moment my lack of sleep is starting to kick in. At least with tommorrow night i dont start till 6pm so i can get a decent amount of sleep in the morning. 11 days working straight is harsh but i have to do it!

The only thing that is really pissing me off at the moment is the inability of control. I wish someone would just tell me what date i am starting in specialist. Just give me a fucking day already!!! I keep getting “soon” from all sources and its annoying. Soon could mean several things, days, weeks even months. I am starting to get tired of it and wondering now if i should of gone for the position in BDT as Application Support, but then knowing my luck feet would be dragged the same way as to when i could leave.

At the moment i am just sticking through it. On day 11/11 i hope it to be my final day in my current team otherwise i think im going to scream. I am however going to the Sunshine Coast next weekend for a wedding so i’ll need to look my best which means a haircut and hopefully flirting with the hairdresser i haven’t spoken to in 4 months…

Late shifts really do suck (especially when trains are running late like yesterday) but only got one more this week and then next week i’m on earlies (afaik). Probably post again on Sunday night after the first broncos game at Suncorp. Seems they may have moved me to a new bar their but i will confirm that later. I hope they haven’t because i liked my little home on level 7!

I feel kinda trapped at work at the moment. I was successful in a new position at work in the Specialist team, something i had been hoping to get for quite some time. However now that i have the job i have to wait before i can start. One of my friends who also got the position started last week and she is loving it. I, however, am stuck still in my current position till i get replaced.

I feel that im trapped here and wont be free of it for a while. Don’t get me wrong i have nothing against the Travelpoint team but I have waited so long to get into Specialist and have been turned down numerous times that now that I can finally get there im stalled. Everyone thinks that it is because I dont like the position but its the opposite.

Word is that i COULD start on either the 13th or 20th of this month but at the moment i will believe it when i see it.

Anyway i have to go to work now….
