Happy New Year

I know what you're thinking, yes it has been forever since my last post.  And I do feel guilty so please do not rub it in.  Since my last post, I've seen the new year, I've enjoyed two weeks of December and I am officially unemployed.  Lindi, the PR Intern is no more! *mixed feelings* .  My last day at work which I looked forward to for the whole year came and went without me even blogging about it and boy do I feel like such a flop! I mean I built suspense and horror and had (hopefully) had my viewers awaiting to hear how the fireworks went off at work, how I was thrown a farewell party, given a farewell gift and how I told my boss off in a drunken stupor... Well none of that happened.  Instead my departure was just like my arrival, quiet and with people partially interested.  Well I might be exaggerating just a tad.  Some where sad to see me leave, some sort of declared feelings for me and well others acted as if they'd see me again today.  Looking at my whole internship from a more "sober" mind seems like the mature thing to do.  I mean I learnt what I could, did the best with what I had, stuck it out and now its over like everything else in life especially the world cup (some people are still awaiting the business opportunities and are now stuck in debt with houses stupidly decorated permanently with painted flags - bummer!)

It's been 3 days into the new year and it feels like 30 days.  I haven't seen anything that I'm partially interested in jobwise and well, life's is calmer, at least for me.  The transition into 2011 was very un-eventful for me this year, which I think is good as its given me a more "introspected" look at life.  And as the cliche or whatever it is goes: The more things change, the more they stay the same, I will never rest my fashion-hungry and loving self until the day I'm officially laid to rest.  And I hate to admit it but the fact that my BlackBerry has stopped working on me, has made me very lonely and isolated from my Twitter, Facebook and especially my BBM mates.  I feel like such a douche for not being able to share friendly tips and words and update statuses - now I'm just a walking status update, beware if its the BBM angry smiley that's on my forehead today - lol.

Well, here goes another year, here comes my car, my frequent online trips to Milan and continued success in all my endevours...

Happy New Year folks...
