Last week I had not one but two interviews.  Busy week full of stress as you can imangine.  Had to present my self in the best light answer all the questions and such.  I felt it went well.  I was looking forward to be around grown ups and leave these two lunatics to them selves for two whole days and not only that little one would have attended nursery after preschool more.  I would have joined the gym...  For some reason I really build all this up in my head.  I got one no last Friday. I was ok with it, the second interview seems more successful and I was very excited about working with a big team... This morning however I got a very nice email about how I have scored very highly but they got some one a bit better...  Now I feel very down. Which is silly coz I am upset about something that is in my head...  So I must stay positive! But there was an unexpected outcome. Husband said watching me being frustrate...

motivation and career....

So what do you do? Do you love what you do? Does this fulfil you? .... I had a choice, stick with same girls I went to school with and be in the mainly females and study languages (at that point I truly had enough!) or go away to Switzerland to do degree in hospitality. Guess which one I chose... I was never encouraged to do things I wanted, nurtured... It is not the Russian way... I was to provide for my self as fast as I can and I did I loved my 1st placement for most of the time. I loved ladies I worked with, the customers. And they loved me back. But it was not to last. The hospitality industry is not an industry in UK. Even if you think about how much money is involved in it... Like entire Britain depends on it. Weatherspoons.... Wagamama... and many more.... But our waiters are students, people who don't care mainly.... but there are some that do and we need to appreciate a good service. I have been talking about this for a while now, some waiters are professionals ...

Did you know that according to the Chinese calendar this New Year will be a year of a Snake. How exciting!  I do hope that this wise snake will make everyone's year better and more exciting!  As for me it will be an interesting one... Full of adventure hopefully and new beginnings!  As for 2012...it was an interesting year.  I found new job... decided what I want to do... lost some weight and gain some muscles... crochet a baby blanket with tassels.... became better at cooking...  2012 was also the 1st year of marriage...  Nothing new there... I mean the marriage doesn't change anything much... well now Steve calls me wife.  I have met some awesome people! And am actually super sad to leave them in Cardiff...  and the old friends....  Me b@%ches! I am already missing you greatly! For 2013 I...
