An Emotional Surprise

Yesterday I had the starting of a horrible week. I had a discussion with my boss and her boyfriend after work about my work performance. Granted I haven't been performing well, not exactly modivated and I wasn't exactly communicated to well. They were frustrated that I didn't do what they want, but they weren't clear on what they wanted either. The whole argument (or nearly an argument) started off on the wrong foot. Every time I brought a point up my boss would start to roll her eyes. A sure sign she's not listening to me. We nailed something out and I need to learn to just not care as much.

I recieved my first mail to my new address. Oh what a surprise it is, the finished farewell video project from Simon. I hurried to show my roommate and we watched it on the TV. I was so excited to see the finished project. From the opening it was great, it really felt like a movie experience. The songs from the menu and the individual scenes were perfect. It started with Andrew's creative video which show cased Queen street's attractive and unattractive saying good bye to yours truely. Following with the hidden filming at my farewell party and linked with tons of scenes from my various friends scattered all across Toronto (and outside of the GTA!). I saw scenes of new houses, Ikea, and Tiffany's car. The sneak peak into Aritzia was horrible Rui, those girls don't even know me!

I didn't cry, for those who want to know. But, I felt a sense of warm joy watching the video. There's little things in each person's character that I can pick up again watching them speak. The familar scenes are nice because it sends a flood of memories. You look on things differently when they are not so easy for you to see anymore. I miss my friends, I don't have as close friends here though I met some good friends as well. I have been lucky, but it hasn't exactly been the same. I'm not as relaxed I suppose. Hopefully Sunny can get his webcam up...

PS Rui. Jean Luc Picard rocks. Sorry James T. Kirk.

Thanks Sai and Mike. Your projects always turn out perfect.
