TICKETY BOO
Sunday 8 October 2006
I've only gone and landed myself a superb job!
Week one in the Big Brother House....wait no ummm Week one in Celeste does London and so far I have met a great bunch of people (Mel is still my best friend - don't you worry Squishy is still yours Melanie), I've been out every night this week, did karaoke for the first and last time (I've got you babe sung with a mad Aussie girl after drinking 3 jagameister bombs (spelling!?) just doesn't work even if you do gyrate sexily), Went for one interview and landed the job.
My new work of place is A. Maze. Ing. I feel like I'm in a dream I really do. i can't believe this is my new life. I sit right next to the floor to ceiling window in my new office based very near to Liverpool Street station and i can see the Millenium Dome, Canary Wharf, Tower Bridge and more and it takes my breath away. Last week I was sitting in a windowless brown office in Shithampton wishing my life away and now I'm a fancy PA/Project Assistant to 3 Directors for a bank. I am so overwhelmed and am just so happy.
I'm starting to look for a houseshare this week but life at the hostel is pretty damn awesome. I'm surrounded by people from all over the world who are all relaxed and sociable. I get 10% off food and drink there and the spa is truly wonderful especially if shared with some hunky New Zealanders.
There is so much more to tell you all but I must dash - I'm off to Leicester Square to watch some play i don't know with a couple of chaps from work.
This whole thing is going so much better than I could ever have imagined.

Posted by: silk at October 9, 2006 09:48 AMThank you all for your lovely comments.
It's strange getting used to my new life style. I know it will calm down a touch when I find a place but at the moment I'm out every night and not back until about 11.30 - which for me is crazy as my bed time was always 10.30!
I am never going to get bored of chilling in a hot tub with a bunch of Aussie guys. Pure heaven.
Plus last night I even got called skinny! I mean me skinny!? Wooooo!
Oli - I'm really enjoying the buzz. I thought I was going to hate it but I even enjoy rush hour. It's mad. I'm like a different person.
Status - It will be a perm job but the policy for all new staff here is that everyone is temp to perm so basically I'm working my probhation.
I'll do an update as soon as i can but I am just really enjoying my new life and can't believe how well it's all going.
I'm even going to the Dorchester Hotel for dinner tomorrow evening.......
Posted by: Celeste at October 11, 2006 02:45 AMOh don't bother with the Dorchester, do Menu at the Conaught.
So glad its going well, here's hoping the high keeps on rolling.
Posted by: TheBoy at October 11, 2006 10:13 AMThat sounds fabulous! I'm so proud of you babe!
