Veggie-ism, Work and Projects.

, , , ...

I'm sorry I have been rather rubbish at updating lately, although I have been away and I have also been doing a lot of training at work and so I haven't really had time to update everyone!

I successfully finished my week of vegetarianism and it really was an eye opener for sure! For now though I can't see myself becoming a veggie, although I have noticably cut down the amount of meat I eat and it's all sub-concious which is the surprising thing. I do feel a lot better for doing it too bigsmile

On the work front, I started on the 5th Jan and until now have been training. The girl I am covering for maternity has now left and it's all down to me! worried Terri was so popular and good at her job, I have a really hard act to follow. So I guess there is a little bit of worry there. I know it's going to take time to build solid relationships and the work load is fine. But I can't help wanting to be fully up to speed! faint

As I may have mentioned before, my new job is very IT based. I work with the hardware server team at an investment bank. I have always been interested in techy stuff and for the past 3/4 years have wanted to do a degree/ qualification. After chatting with my manager and others, it turns out I can get training on site here and eventually have the possibility of becoming a fully qualified Unix/ Wintel Engineer bigsmile - I am so happy and can't believe my luck at landing in this job!!! yes

Due to concentrating on work, my Girls n Gadgets has had to take a back seat but I am back on the case and very excited again. I just need to hit up my girl @Mia and get her back on the case too. It won't take much I doubt as the girl is awesome bigsmile If you would like to be kept up to date on Girls n Gadgets, please follow @girlsngadgets

Finally, I'd just like to say that any UK Twitter readers, Twestival is on the 12th February - Please visit www.twestival.com for details.

Muchos Love to you all...

Vegetarianism Day 1

, , , ...

So I began my week of vegetarianism today. It's an exciting time for me as I think this will open my eyes to a lot of different foods and recipes. Here's todays menu:-

Breakfast - Nothing - I don't ever eat breakfast and if I do, it's normally only junk food!

Lunch - Carrot, houmous & sprouts in wholemeal bread sandwich

Dinner - Vegetable stir fry.



One thing about vegetarianism I have noticed is that a lot of people seem to think that if you are a vegetarian, then you eat vegetables and not much else. Comments such as, 'hope you don't pass out' and 'won't you always be hungry?' spring to mind! This is not the case at all. There is a wide range of meals that you can eat that don't have to contain meat. One thing people forget is that there is the meat substitute - Quorn. This pretty much means that anything a meat eater can make, so can you!

There are also meals such as, pizza, pasta, baked potatoes, noodles etc that can be whiped up in no time at all. Your sunday roast can be substituted with a nut loaf. So you never really lose out by being a veggie!

As a result of my research and others feedback, I am going to create a blog which will focus on veggie diets and will be updated with daily veggie recipies for everyone to try. I will keep you all updated on this wink

In other news, I started my new job today. I think I am going to love it. the people there are lovely, the work is as expected and there is a discount on Mac products wink I really think I have found my perfect job once and for all - YAY!!!

Anyway - I am rather drained - Time to got to bed me thinks.

Goodnight Operaland

, , , ...

Okay guys, panic over!lol Me over-reacting once again!right I mean, what in the name of God is up with me? lol! I am constantly worrying over things when there is absolutely NOTHING to be worrying about!

Anyway - I saw Pete last night! Was great to see him! He was lovely! Had a great night chilling out, watching the Arsenal win 2-1 against Ajax of Holland! Great result considering out circumstances! With Henry, Bergkamp, Gilberto, Lehman, Van Persie, and a few more all out worried - We had to play what would have been a second team. But when I saw the team sheet, I was plesantly surprised I have to Say!!!bigsmile

After the football, we put on 'Save the last Dance' - What a lovely film - I really enjoyed it! The dancing, the romance, the music - what more could a girl want! bigsmile

Well, that was pretty much my night! Nice chilling and for once, successful in all areas! cheers

At work now - gotta get on - Need another coffee already! coffee *sigh*
