Happy New Year!




Hello Everyone,

Happy  New Year.

I haven't written that much for a whole, mostly because I feel I have nothing newsworthy to say. So I guess I'll just talk about what I know  - myself and my life.

Still in the same job - but as a chartered associate I get more respect - that is my opinions take more weight with my bosses. That's nice. Job hunting isn't that easy, and however I did get one interview which was a boost to my morale - unfortunately I didn't get the role.

Still as qualified chartered associate, though I haven't had a pay increase, I have more confidence in what I do. I'm still in a role for an unqualified - or part qualified but whatever it is I still need to draw a wage.

Years ago, I'll have jacked in my job with the intention of getting a better paid one. However I've learnt it's best to leave a job to job especially when bills need to get paid. There is also a bonus factor of learning from my two bosses. I've had a lot of bosses/managers over the last few years, and each of them have something I could learn from. They offer an alternative way and different insight to my profession.

My private life needs a little more balance and I've got plenty to sort out there. A lot, so let's hope this year is a turning point. I guess it can only be one if I turn...

I also need to work on my novel. Still a work in progress...let's see what happens.

Have a great week or month, and I'll catch up later.

Hugs

BD

Up Date on Happenings: Newly Single & 17% pay raise.

Hey Everyone, So update since my last entry. Well I had a brief fling with Mr Sexy Guy and decided he wasn't the one for me. He was cool but I learned the difference between lust, chemistry and personality. It just didn't tango for me. I'm still grossly overweight, well, fat. I don't think there is anything wrong with being called fat. I am fat. I need to lose weight but that means getting organised and stop eating delicious food. Then again my knees are hurting me and joints feel the ache. I also haven't been to the gym in three months despite paying for it. But when I do, I normally go for the sauna, hot tub and   steam room session. I've thought of cancelling the exorbitant membership but in the climate apart from bills it's the one thing that is just for me...that when I use it. Work is fine, managed to get a 17% pay raise. A big thanks to my boss who also pushed for it. It's good to work for people who support you in that matter. I think tha...

Show me your desk: Books, magazines, bottle of water, and same old clutter.

Today I have more of a writerly desk, so let's roll. From the far left handside is my writing magazine, I treat myself to it, and it has some interesting articles at times. It's just something I flick though the way other people buy GQ, Vougue or Marie Claire. It's my monthly interest magazine, and no I don't do the writing exercises but then who buys all the clothes, make-up and perfume advertised in the high-end women's magazines.  Next is a bottle of vitamins, this was a gift from Sis. Yes, as you probably realise, Sis is very generous with her gifts as they are normally featured on my desk. If fact the Apple Notebook is also one.  A small fact is that I bought my first phone only two years ago because for the last ten years, Sis gave me all her hand-me-downs. She's very on top of technology - ahead of the curve, wave or early adaptor.  Anyway she got me them because she's into healthy eating and body care, and probably got them on discount. ...

March Update: Photoshop Composting, Writing, Meal Plan, My first trip out of my area.

  This is one of the composites, I created in one of the courses. This was based on graphic design and I feel like an island floating in a new landscape. It is a composite of three images with a bit of blending.  This was from a boo Photoshop Composting I'm still finding my way with this, so I have the technical skills which I realise it a matter of masks and blending modes however the next thing is to keep on doing it until I learn the principles of graphic design. It's complicated to explain and I'm still finding my way but basically at some point I need to start doing my own stuff, and right now those images look a bit awkward until I get the design aspect right. It can be fun but also some aspects can be tedious and boring. And I guess it's a matter of keep on practice,  and I also want to get to the point, I can use my own pictures.  Writing  Going well and steady, nothing significant to report on that front. But I'm looking at a soft deadline of completing...
