Too much of something

I haven't made any progress with this so it could be something for a new years resolution...unless I'm too busy like always!

I have been working too hard to make sure I get my work done on time for my degree. I'm usually really good at these kinds of things but due to delivery issues back in February I have been behind since I started but have still managed to get really good grades, it's a weird one. On top of that, the big thing I can't talk about on social media in fear of someone I work with finding out is the possibility of a new web design job. I put my CV out there a few months ago and had a few responses from people with jobs I wasn't interested in as I'm not in any rush to move as I do love the team I'm in, but I'm just doing work I'm not interested in moving forward with. I do enjoy my job and the work I do but I REALLY want to work in web design (kinda funny I haven't coded the shit out of this blog...I would if I had time though!).

Finally 1 month ago today a lovely lady got in touch with a really great opportunity and I totally thought I blew it on the task I was required to complete (a template web page where all the design was given in a Photoshop document and I had to code it). In short, I didn't, I literally set myself up for failure like okay that's it, thanks, bye. But no. Almost a week later I was contacted to set up an interview and then I went into overdrive. Never have I ever done so much research on a company and when I turned up yesterday I looked like hell. My adrenaline was through the roof, I couldn't stop shaking, it was so bad I almost fell down the flipping stairs. Did I impress them? God knows, I just asked a lot of questions and when I went to write the answers in my notebook I couldn't. The shakes were so bad they were close to that of seizure. Not as bad as when I went for an interview to be in the police specials, but that's another story!

Now to play the waiting game again. This is the most dragged out application process I have known and the anticipation is immense. I cannot wait to find out and have to wait until Tuesday (at the latest). Lucky for me I have a full weekend ahead and some scheduled in work time of course so I can be fully distracted. I also pick up my new car tomorrow :). A shiny black Audi A1, all I wanted for the past few years, my treat to myself as I'll be saving up for the final years of my degree, not to mention my door handle on my car falling off :/. It'll also my birthday so a few of us will be heading off for dinner in Chester and of course Nantwich food festival starts.

So what to do now though. Take a break and play some poker I guess!
