on Tuesday I was given a beautiful gardenia…

Over the last three years I’ve been the tutor of a young girl that studying in high school had to do an internship in a workplace integrating a discipline of her course.
One day and a half per week she was like a worker in my office.

This internship ended last Tuesday.

It was a very interesting experience for me.

When we started I had no clue how to do that and I went back and forward, learning with my mistakes and celebrating some achievements.
I believe we learned something from each other.

Now I suppose I have the feeling of the empty nest. My little bird grew up and is able to fly. And she must fly…

But we still have the friendship that we constructed and the believing that we can count with one another.

On the last day she gave me an offer. This lovely and beautiful gardenia that I will cherish in my home, waiting it flourishes as well as my “bird”.

I hope I made some difference in your life, my dear M*.

With much love… until we meet again.

TO - 01/19 - I feel too sexy for my job…

Can you believe I’m feeling so tired that I just wish it was already Friday? Well I am!!!!
I’m teaching a professional training. Today was the first day and I’m already with lots of pain in my feet and kidneys (yes, I shouldn’t have used heels, now I know…) and my throat hurts and I’m kind of hoarse (yes, I’m not used to talk all day…). I have an headache and… let’s see, what can I complain more about…
Oh, I know I had lots of cold, because I saw the sun earlier and thought I could wear a not so heavy coat.

Now my blogging friends and dear readers I MUST rest, because tomorrow it will be another day like today.
Sorry I’m too exhausted to check your blogs, I’ll catch you up latter.

Take care and smile…

the return of the Rainbow Queen…

Did you miss me??? I know you did, so don’t be shy, tell me. I don’t bite.

I’ve been in a Nokia trip (connecting people) at St Michael Island in my archipelago, in a management seminar.

Later, at 20:00 hours Zulu time, new outfit post.

The working week evolution

Today I was doing some housecleaning and thinking.
I don’t like doing housecleaning, but it’s a must. A not clean environment or unordered it’s hard to be, because it feeds negative energies. And believe it or not I can feel it.
Well, but it wasn’t about that I was thinking meanwhile my housecleaning.
My thoughts flew through something I called the working week evolution.

In the start of the working week, the unknown in one is still a junior, the feeling of significance is still under construction, and one listens more.
Mondays are the most truthful days. So on Mondays, one is still aware of how to put ones sentinel up.
On Tuesdays, one is starting to get assertive.
Wednesdays - one loses its sense of consideration, feel and accuracy.
On Thursdays, one acts ostentatiously or pretentiously.
On Fridays, one is recuperating from the loss of bodily sensation with or without loss of consciousness.
Then come up the weekends and one spends them trying to manage with the discomfort of being one selves, counting calories, funds, odds, and blood cells.

... resting and studying...

What a day!! I feel very exhausted.

Tomorrow afternoon it will be my exam, though there is a tough time ahead.
There for I’m not posting much, because I have to rest and study.

Anyway, I'd better get back to work!

Career woman and Fashion

Being a woman is not just about how she look on the outside. On the other end, to be a woman who likes fashion doesn’t mean that she is vain or superficial. A woman doesn’t run out with just an aspect of herself, whether it is fashion, family, or career.
As so, professional seriousness is consistent with feminine elegance.
Dressing for success is a guiding principle in every career a woman may embrace.
A commitment to true workplace equality and cooperation calls for another way of dressing. It is not simply a question of "power dressing" in the 1980s sense of a masculine, corporate look.
Fashion will suggest styles and details of dress which are both practical for the wearer and pleasant for others.
A frumpy outfit and a killer smile is enough to outshine any fashionista that fidgets and worries about how she looks all the time. Fashionista must be synonymous with diva attitude – know what you stand for, trust your taste and go for it. Confidence exuded will only add that extra layer of flavour to your attitude.
Often times, a lukewarm outfit can be won over by a confident attitude in the way you carry yourself.
Let people know that you're in charge of you and that you can take over the world.

A perfectionist?

As I told you, this week I’m in a professional training course. Today was the first day, but I felt already full of pressure.
Is it because I’m somebody who likes to do things properly = a bit perfectionist?
When I think about this situation I can see a bit of myself, and it makes me keeping on to seek the path to my self knowledge ….
What for? To try to overcome my fears, so I may be a little better person.

STRESSED OUT!!!!

Today was a very difficult day at work!

I felt so stressed out that I become feeling sick.

My things to do list was huge and my schedules were tied. I leave somethings for tomorrow that I must finish this week.

Next week I'll be out of work on a professional training.

Although just enough stress can be a good thing, stress overload is a different story - too much stress isn't good for anyone.

Everybody was calling me, I start feeling overwhelm.

So tonight is time to rest and trying to relax, therefore I'm not writing much.
