I haven't blogged here in over a week.
On NYE we went to Mill Street and had some food and partook in conversation with old and new friends. Went back to our place to play Jackbox games and then watched some very weak fireworks that we could barely see. :( Had some celebratory drinks and then went to bed right after.
Jan 1 was a holiday still, so we just chilled for a bit and I looked at some jobs.
This weekend I was in Fernie. On Friday I did some work for bf biz and then our friend came over and we carpooled to Fernie. The drive was good, except it was SO dark in some areas as there was literally no reflectors or street lights. Thank goodness for high beams and headlights.
We then got to the cabin and did some chatter. I made a new friend who was more of an acquaintence to me in hs, so that was cool. We had some curry rice with chicken and a salad for dinner. Then I played Puyo Puyo for the first time on the Nintendo Switch (which was also the first time for me to play one!).
Saturday - My friend and I roamed the town of Fernie while the others went to ski/snowboard at the ski hill. We checked out Big Bang Bagel, which makes their own bagels and cream cheese and it was soooo freaking good. My friend got a crepe from this place called Freshies and it was a huge crepe that he said was super delicious. Who knew that we would find such great gems in Fernie? We went through a lot of ski shops as well and we bought some chocolate from Beanpod, since it was locally made. I also bought some healing stones to help me with communication and stress-relief. I think they are working so far because I felt so much more comfortable communicating with my friends on this trip afterwards. :) Afterwards we had potato soup for lunch and then sausages for dinner. Then tried out the hottub which was super nice!!
Sunday - We went home and the drive was beautiful. It was so nice to actually see where we were driving in broad daylight!! Had some of our friends over to try to finish off some of the food we made, all was finished except for a beef patty, bread and some rice and chicken which we kept at our place. We took a big nap afterwards and I was feeling gross so had kimchi for dinner and then went to bed.
It was a nice weekend to get out of the city for a bit and spend it with friends! I have a client call later today and will be chatting with my client then doing some work for them for a bit. I hope I can do well. Also am taking a look at some opportunities on Upwork. I left this post (went to have lunch at Boogies Burgers with a friend that I haven't seen in a while) but just now I got a message from my virtual PM that they have another client for me. Oh man, things are going to get busy. I really hope I'll be able to balance the two clients I'll have!
I tried to call my client but it looks like he was in a client meeting, and so he asked me to call him back in a bit.
I really didn't do much today except look at jobs, eat with my friend, and researched a bit of background stuff for my client. I applied to a few Upwork things as well and will have to do some video editing later tonight. What I really need to get done this week though is my Adwords certification and also work on CodeAcademy. Time to reset my sleep clock and get up earlier tomorrow to do as much work as possible!
