MEME TIME
WHO ARE U? Quarter-centurion, still quite aimless. Unable to make proper "grown-up" plans, unable to stick to a budget and unable to stay away from sales (aaaahhh...). Always the procrastinator. And messy. In short, not very pleasant.
WHO/WHAT INSPIRES U? People who have their life in order and still manage to have fun. People who actually achieve things in life.
WHAT ARE UR CURRENT OBSESSIONS? Erm. Shopping? Trying to sort out my music library before I go overseas.
WHAT IS UR DREAM OCCUPATION? Watching the world go by...maybe a cafe. Nothing too tedious, but sufficiently paid of course. How else would I pay the bills?
IF U COULD BUY ANYTHING WHAT WOULD IT BE? The ability to read minds. But I don't think you can buy this. So erm, my own private jet (where maintenance costs are covered...for life)
WHAT ATTRACTS U? Nice smells, charming smiles and witty humour
WHO IS UR IDEAL MAN? Sincerity, humour and hmm. don't know
WHO IS THE MOST HANDSOME PERSON ON EARTH? Most handsome? That's hard. But Ewan McGregor is hot (just saw him on TV the other night)
WHAT DO U THINK ABOUT FASHION? Tedious
WHAT IS UR BIGGEST DREAM? That life is peachy.
WHAT CLOTHES DO U PREFER? Jeans and tee....comfort first
WHAT DO U DO WHEN YOUR ALONE? Listen to music....surf blogs, youbtube, random things. Watch DVDs. Read. SLEEPzzzzzzzzzzz.
WHAT ARE UR PLANS FOR THE COMING YEAR? Haha. Doreen is travelling the world! Well...not quite the world....but good enough for now. New York, here I come! And then....Chicago, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls, Los Angeles, London, Paris, some Europe tour (Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Prague, Germany, Amsterdam etc), Singapore. Then back home to Sydney....
And then it's back to reality and the mountain of debt. BOO :(
Maybe after that I will decide to settle down and stop spending every single cent I have.

Time for a little self reflection
Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.
The seriousness of your love:
Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.
Your views on education:
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.
The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.
How do you view success:
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.
What are you most afraid of:
You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.
Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

I still can't understand...
..how I managed to lose not one..but TWO wireless cards in 2 days is beyond me.
This is not good. I think this new laptop bag eats wireless cards. How did I misplace the cards if I put them in the bag????
Ugh. And the second card wasn't even mine...borrowed it from a colleague cos I was out at a client today. Frickin hell....each card is a few hundred bucks....I'm gonna be in BIG TROUBLE at work :(
Hope someone from my team managed to pick the card up and will hopefully return it to me tomorrow.
Which also means...no working from home tomorrow cos I'll be without the wireless. ARGH.
Should go to bed soon then.

Hunter Valley with a bottle of wine...
So we're up in the Hunter Valley (Cypress Lakes Resort, to be more precise) for a 3 day offsite training event, and we're almost done! Tomorrow is the last day woohoO!
But it's been more fun than expected actually...had a team building activity this afternoon which involved each team building a billy kart and racing it down a track. And while my team didn't actually win the race, we beat the other 24 teams and came in first because of points won in other areas...the key deciding factor being teamwork. Haha cos our 'epic' race involved all 3 teams struggling to get through 20m on the track (due to lack of pushing power, karts falling over, running into other karts etc). That was quite a funny match. Won ourselves a bottle of win each...woohoo
And then during Melbourne Cup Dinner, my table came first in the races...where we had got the opportunity to bet "PCS money" on 4 (past) races. With PCS$800 we managed to chalk up some PCS$4,400, beating the other tables to win chocolates from the Hunter Chocolate company...yay!
So now back in my nice room.....checking emails and going to bed.
Tomorrow's training starts at 8am and ends at 6pm....then I need to drive about 2.5 hrs (actually expecting about 3hrs plus due to traffic) back to Sydney. And there is breakfast, checking out....etc.
Erm alright
Night all!
ps. actually wanted to write and say that I've finally gotten my application forms for USA Visa, so...that means I'm going for sure! Yay!!
Booking my tickets soon :)
