Mid week drink up

I do not condone drinking, promote it or encourage others to do it. If it's something you to decide on your own, if you know your limits then your fine in my books.

Sometimes it's nice to just meet up with a friend, have a meal, have some wine with your food and have a chit chat and catch up. 

That was the plan anyway...But since my saturday night plans were thwarted last minute I had this unresolved need to go out and have a good time. 

So we both met up in Camden and had a look around the places which sort of fancied going to. I had a rough idea of the places I wanted to go to and in the end we decided on Gilgamesh. Quite a posh swanky place with wood carvings on all the walls, mahogany tables, large statues and pillar decorated in mosaic artistry. 

The place looked great, the prices were pretty steep but my guess is you were paying for the atmosphere too. 

After a few nibbles and a Gilgamesh cocktail we made our way to a club I've been to a few times. I must admit it was a bit funny because it happened to be a student night, which just made us laugh. We spent most of our night guessing how old the other people were and if they used fake IDs to get in. It was hilarious.

Overall a great night and was quite nice to have time with a friend just the two of us instead of the usual group situations we normally find ourselves in.

Marley & Me

This is a great film. I've seen it before but it was nice to see it again. THe thing I like about this film is that it's so real. It's not a typical rom com where it's all fairy tales and moments that are timed perfectly. It's real life. It's what life is like, full of disappointments,difficulties and problems that make life real.

Great film that is worth watching. It has it's funny moments and sad ones that bring a tear to your eyes.

Cancel...everyone cancels

Cancel...Something I seem to be hearing alot lately. It's beginning to get rather frustrayting now. I'ce had to keep cancelling my plans to fit around everyone elses moods and it's really starting to bug me.

The plan was to go to a bar. One guy decides to cancel, leading the other to cancel because he doesn't want to be the only guy. So that just leaves two people. Then my friends decide to invite me to join them since the boys have cancelled we can have a girls night out. Only one problem, their going to a gay bar...Something I'm completely comfortable and quite looking forward to going to, but my lot aren't exactly comfortable with. SO now the plan has changed once again. I'm no longer going out to a bar like I originally wanted to do.Instead I have to compromuise and do what everyone else wants to do and go to a shisha garden instead.

This does seem like a rant...and to be honest it is. Im trying to vent out my frustration in the hopes that I might be able to enjoy the shreds of whats left of my great weekend I was hoping to have.

Going out

Tonight was a nice little night out. It was a work mates birthday. We went to The Diner a American burger bar kind if restaurant bar. I had s cheese burger and cheese fries.

The food was great, really good. It was nice seeing people from work and seeing people from different departments that I normally wouldn't bump into.

Tomorrow night me and a few cousins are going out for drinks and possibly a club if we're feeling up to it. People haven't really asked about tomorrow night, which I hope doesn't mean they're cancelling.

Fingers crossed tomorrow night is okay, will let you know all about it and takes lots of pictures.

Appraisal results

Today was my appraisal at work. It was my annual review and it went pretty well. 

It was essentially an hour of my seniors telling me how happy they are that I'm there with them at work, and how well I'm doing and how much potential I have to go far in the business.

I'm so delighted that they feel that way and they do realise all the hard work I do, and it is appreciated. My new objectives were drawn up and in a few months will have a review of them to show that I have met my objectives and need new ones. 

Overall it was a really good chance for me to talk about all the things I want to do and to hear how well I'm doing at work. They told me I'm on track for a promotion in the next few months and once a vacancy comes up that I should try and apply for it if I feel ready.

I'm really chuffed that they think so highly of me and they're really happy that they got me on their department.

Appraisal

It's that time where everyone gets appraised.

Bit of a weird thing to call it...I mean a performance reviews sounds a bit better than a appraisal, makes it soundlike were old antiques and their trying to work out how much we're worth.

ANyway, tonight I have to get an early night because I dont really want to turn up late to my own appraisal.

Goodnight and will update you on how my appraisal went.
