So here is a quick update of what has been happening in Coco's world.
* a tiny back story
In October of last year I left my job at ResAfrica for an exciting challenge at Berco Indoor Gardens, I loved it and 5 months into my contract with them I was offered a promotion. I am now the Customer Care Liaison for them. For the first time in a long time I am really enjoying what I am doing! Its an amazing feeling. I no longer dread getting up in the morning and going to work. I actually look forward to what the day brings. I am on the road a lot visiting clients so I'm not stuck in the office behind my desk whole day. Variety is after all the spice of life!
I booked and paid for my holiday in Vietnam in October. Well actually I just paid for my flights. International holidays are expensive and I needed to do this in stages. So even if I end up staying on the streets of Vietnam at least I will be guaranteed a flight there and back home.
I literally cannot wait for this trip! I have always wanted to travel to Vietnam, its been on my bucket list for the longest time. October seems so very far away though. I have this crazy crush on Bobby Chinn he is a restaurateur and an ambassador for Vietnam. I partly fell inlove with that place because of him.
The fun will start soon when I plan my itinerary! If you have been to Vietnam before and have some useful tips, please do let me know in the comments section below. All suggestions are welcome.
Cocopop (my car) has a new bump on her. She looks like she has two cellulite spots in her bum. That's how I look at it, it makes me feel better about being such a horrible owner.
I have also started washing her myself. Mainly because paying for my trip has made me broke and I cant afford luxuries... such as food and car washes. I finally get why guys wash their own cars, there is a sense of pride you are filled with when you see her all shiny and sparkly and knowing you did that yourself. No more job creation for me, no more growing this economy by employing people to wash my car. I shall do it myself from now on. I will still use my "little people" to wash my car. I don't think of it as exploitation (and you shouldn't either), I think of it as valuable life lessons that I am passing on to the youth of today.
I bought myself a hamster, her name is bubbles. Its possible that she is actually a he, but since she cannot speak for herself she shall be a she and I shall call her bubbles.
I have been pinning some cute D.I.Y obstacles to put in her cage on Pinterest and I cant wait to get started on it. (If you know me, you will know that those pins will stay just there. On Pinterest. My intentions are good, but my follow-through needs some work)
Reading this post I am actually embarrassed that that is all that has happened in the last few months and I didn't make time to post anything. I really thought I was busier than that! I mean it's not like I have had babies to look after or husbands to tend to, or weddings to plan. I don't know how you people with children do it. (and by children I am also referring to the children of the adult kind)
I shall get into the swing of things again soon.
Have a great week further.
Coco
