I got the job!!! Yay :D So I finish at Stellar on Friday the 27th June and I start with Skilled Group on Monday the 30th June. My title is Payroll Officer and my salary will be slightly higher than what I'm on now with room to grow as I learn more stuff.
I'm happy, I don't have to worry now I've got somewhere to go and I won't have to live off my redundancy payment for any period of time.
Friday night I settled into bed to watch the DVD's that were due back on Saturday. I started watching Pan's Labyrinth then, for the first, or maybe second time in our entire relationship Dhillon turned up just to surprise me! :D It was great, so we watched DVD's together hehe.
Saturday I hung around watching the rest of the movies while Dhillon was out being a handy man at Raj's house, fixing stuff together lol. In the evening we headed out to Chapel St for Jo's birthday/engagement drinks. Was meant to be at Hoo Haa, and the line for Hoo Haa was long. We lined up and then Bob and Michael turned up, luckily Michael knew the bouncers so he walked us in. Jo couldn't get in so she was across the road at The Social, so we wandered over there. Everything seemed to be packed out, must have just been the right night for everyone to hit Chapel St lol. After a few drinks we grabbed a kebab at Lamb and headed home at about 2am.
Sunday was Robyn's bf Marty's birthday at Strike bowling in the city. We all got drunk at 3pm in the afternoon, it was great lol. I came second :D After bowling we were going to go to karaoke but it was closed till 8pm, as it was only 5pm we decided to eat instead .. and what did we eat, dumplings of course!! Yummmmm.
So only 5 weeks left at work, went in for the testing today, I think I did OK and I will find out in a few days if they want me or not. I think I'd really like to work there!
Went for my first job interview today. Was nothing like I remember job interviews to be. It wasn't nerve racking and the people were really nice and friendly. The feedback from my job agency was very positive and they want me to come in and do some testing on Monday. Maybe I won't have to go to any other job interviews hehe.
Last Sunday Dhillon was meant to come to my house at 11am and spend the day with me and help me cook scones for my mum for Mother's day. His stoopid friend Bob got too drunk and had to stay at his house so Dhillon couldn't come and he BROKE HIS PROMISE hehe. As punishment I said he had to spend this entire weekend with me, no friends, no family friends, just moo & hunyo time lol.
So Saturday we headed out into the city. We were trying to think of something to do but as it was 5pm there really wasn't much aside from dinner, drink or movies, so we did all 3. We parked in Little Bourke St and headed up to Melbourne Central in the rain. Watched 'What Happens in Vegas'. It was pretty good, lots of giggly bits lol.
After movies we went to the bar where the rooftop cinema is. It was raining pretty hard at this time so we scurried around under the umbrellas to get to the bar and the heaters. Was nice up there and would be great on a not rainy evening.
After a drink we headed along to Gaylord Indian restaurant in Tattersalls Lane. Last time we went we had a banquet which was really good, so we had it again! Had 3 entrees which were a potato fried thing lol, chicken and some sort of meat, for mains was a chicken curry, a beef (or maybe lamb?) curry, rice, lentil curry, yogurt and naan bread and some ice cream for desert. Oof we were stuffed full lol.
On the way home we stopped at Video Ezy to get some DVD's. We were watching Munich and I was trying so hard not to fall asleep, it was quite boring and Dhillon likes to have the subtitles turned on, so I can't help but read them and it's kind of hypnotic. We turned off the DVD early and then he realised the IPL was on TV and he wanted to watch that. My reply? Hell no go to sleep!!
Sunday we went to have brunch at The Pavilion in Doncaster, cos it's close hehe. Turns out they have a 2 course lunch special for $19.90, bargain!! I had salt and pepper squid for entree and Dhillon had minestrone soup, both followed by pasta carbonara as the main. Yummyo. Came home and watched the end of the DVD then I released him, allowed him some space away from me hehe.
I had a nice weekend, I dunno about him haha .. nah he had a nice one too. Best part? Walking around in the rain in the city huddled under my umbrella :D
Had the extensions in for a week now, getting used to them hehe. A few have fallen out (which is normal) and it's odd seeing a clump of hair in my brush, but Gemma can just pop them straight back in for me when I go see her next week. On Thursday after work went to Forest Hill and Dhillon and I were looking about in Myer at the hair straighteners. We were looking at about the $40 to $60 range but didn't commit to buying, instead wait for a sale or something. As we were leaving I had a look on the clearance table and they had the Remington wet to dry straightener for $70, so I bought it and saved $100!!
Last night was Tahlea's wedding. Left work at 1 to come home and get ready. Dhillon came at 4 and we drove into the city for the wedding at The Willows function centre. The ceremony was lovely, I think Tien was more nervous than Tahlea and they both looked beautiful. The tables were beautiful and the band they had were great too. No one cried and the speeches were entertaining. Was great :)
So here it is (please excuse the look on my face, I was so tired from sitting in the chair for 4 and a half hours and I felt sick in the tummy)
I washed it this morning, it's SO heavy when it's wet, looks hot though :D I'm happy.
Today got up nice and early and headed off to see my friend Gemma at Hairhouse Warehouse. Sat down and had a chat about my extensions and colours and how we wanted to work the blonde into the brown, then I sat back and let her work her magic.
End result of the first stage is dark brown hair with 4 sections of blonde that show through my layers. We moved away from the foils as if we kept the extensions like that it would look way too chunky and just not so natural. I REALLY like what she's done with the colour and I'm super excited for the end result on Friday.
It's a bit hard to see on these photos but it gives you an idea at least
