Whirlwind Day

Today I was in good spirits that I was going to face the panel of interviewers and be done with it. Little did I know that I would have such a whirlwind day. First of all, this stupid car on the road nearly crashed into me on Riverside Drive while I was merging lanes. I was in the left lane, but wanted to move to the left turning lane once it came up. Next thing I know this stupid car was merging lanes while I was merging lanes at the same time. So she was literally next to me, trying to take the spot that I had vacated while merging lanes. That probably was the stupidest thing to do and I was so annoyed. I tapped my brakes slightly with shock and lucky the car behind me was probably giving way to the lady and therefore did not crash into me. While I braked, I actually turned to look at the lady and she wasn’t even looking where she turned. Which ticked me off all the more, cause we were inches away from each other. I can still remember vividly her number plate: KMC 8 and she was driving a silver/gray Honda Civic, must be this year’s or last year’s model as it was the newer Civic. I was clearly not a happy camper by the time I got into work.

Got to work and caught up on paperwork and phone calls and documentation. Went through my midway evaluation and was alright. 30 minutes before my interview, I was having butterflies in my stomach. I said a silent prayer and went down to get the questions and sat in the lounge area to prepare. It was rather strange to be sitting there, considering everyone was going for lunch and was wondering what in the world I was doing there. So I had to explain myself a few times and hope they didn’t make a big fuss about it, which they didn’t so I was grateful for that. My supervisor was so nice, giving me tips and things like that to talk to them about. Come to think of it, if everything goes well, the people I’m working with now will officially be my work colleagues. It feels rather strange to think about it that way. Anyway, I don’t think I have the time to think about it. I still have to finish my exam paper and deal with my paperwork for migration and all sorts of things. Plus, results should be in by the end of the week so at least I’ll have a relaxing weekend.
