"I'm so behind in life..."

"I'm so behind in life..." - me (May 21, 2006)

Apparently my quote has really caught on (currently featured on the AIESEC Calgary blog too!). It has been added to AIESEC EB memorable quote list including Timmy M's comment on the French and getting Raped (I'll stop there) and a quote involving Vania and "Cak",oops, I mean Cake. ;)

How do you get behind in life? How about by having a full time job and part time job, president of organizing the university's largest career fair, member of an internal auditing team, taking a class and dealing with all the regular "life" stuff (family etc.). That's how you get behind in life folks. Maybe if I close my eyes it'll go away ... nope, that doesn't work. It's OK, just breathe and take it as it comes...

Account Reconciliation's Much?

I thought that I'd make a quick blog to note a transition in my life. (Not a very exciting one at that, but exciting for me...at this point I missed this blog by a month, but whatever (sorry Kent, I'm trying!)...). From co-op work term 2 (Suncor Energy) to work term 3 (EnCana). Yes, that's right I'm a corporate Calgary Oil and Gas whore (eep, thanks Lay for pointing out my mistake!!...lol... you know that I can't leave it be), and I'm not ashamed to say so. Four months since January was spent at the "Finance Services" SWOT team (our name was cooler than the work we actually did). Let me see... to sum up: Suncor = Excel learning curve, PowerPoint fun, SAP, great people/great bosses, account reconciliations (hundreds of them!) ... I did maybe like 30...but still. Glad to leave? That's kind of a mixed emotion thing. I finally got used to my role at Suncor, but I am definately nervously excited for my new job - and yes, even the prospect of going back to school in September. I am excited for summer in downtown Calgary I see Stephen Ave patios, Stampede breakfasts and corporate golf tournaments soon to come (hopefully!).
