My eventful week..

This week has been a fantastic week for me..

Besides nailing neurology ( one of my most feared areas) , I had 3 fantastic dates, 4 invites for dinner on sat night, told 1 guy I can't see him anymore and had a stand-off gun/knife threat at work


WHAT MORE COULD I ASK FOR ???

When i told my best buddy about this, he just went.. oh my god !! Steph , ur life .... its a ****ing rollercoaster !!!
Indeed it is. I've never experience so many different emotions in 1 week.

The feeling of doing well in your job, the thrill of first dates, the freedom of letting someone go, and extreme fear for your life..

And after all of it, here I am on a Sunday morning ( what I anticipate to be a normal day) looking foward to my next week of adventures. This is life at it's highest for me at the moment. Liberating myself for the regular cliche' is the best thing, I've ever done for myself.. getting out there , saying hi..making more friends has been so amazing and its funny how you realise that, hey I should have done this all the while.

There is a fantastic world out there of pretty amazing, fun people, one just has to know how to pick and choose and be a little careful ...To build a solid network, I realise i cannot rely on my comfort zone. I want to meet publishers, media execs, medical directors and yes I am working my way up there.. Look out for me !!!


Till next time...

Tax Returns already ?????

Yes folks, the end of a somewhat bad financial year has just come to a close. The big boys must be utterly depressed looking at their statements for the year 08/09... but wait.. i know 1 firm who is celebrating the EOFY with champange and strawberries. This is no other than Roche Pharmaceuticals. Swine flu has been a gift from God to this big pharma giant. Sales of tamiflu alone, has created millions of dollars in revenue and big fat bonuses for the boys..how fun !!

Now coming back to my personal financial statement for the year..it has been pretty good. My first year out of uni, earning my own cash, my own interest...its been fairly good. Feel all grown up. But the interesting things here is, I wish i could do a little invoice to all the men I've dated over the past FY claiming returns for being ****heads. Not to mention, the amount of money Ive spent on these pathetic loosers.

I always thought it is fair to be equal. If you pay for dinner, Ill pay for the movie. But boy was I wrong. Men are not the one's who jump to their wallets first anymore. If you (the girl) offers to pay, they 'll gladly say.. awww thanks.. next time on me. And when next time comes, the cycle continues. Speaking to some guy friends, their point of view on this matter was that a girl should pay sometimes, but not all the time. Men apparently love to check out how financially independent a girl is. If she expects a guy to do a lot for her (monetory wise), they would back off.. oh wait.. run for the hills!! So i guessed, guys are becoming smarter in the money department. They don't want to spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars on a girl without officiating things.

Clearly, ive been wearing the pants in most of my dates this year. But oh well, it gives me the power to be dominant over these men lol.... oh boy how vicious am i :P

Well until a strong feminist group comes up with a way to claim returns back from an ex.. i just have to hope on my genital herpes theory...( oh that's for another day :P )

Sigining off....
