Approved Vacation

Posted by myleen at 7:42 PM

Sree, a fellow lab technician, and me were busy beavering down at the thin section laboratory when our department director popped in and asked me for the status of the laboratory requests at hand and how will it be when he allowed me to go on a month-long leave. i answered him that i have everything under control and will ensure continuity of everything. he blurted out that he got the answer that he's looking for. he liked my use of the continuity word. hehe. and so, it's finally settled. assuming i do get everything on schedule, i will be on leave from the 8th of July till the 8th of August. now the question is, how will i survive that long, summer break in the UAE???

sigh. i really, really hope i could go out of the country. well, i could but it would only be an added expense. secondly, who will i go with??? tagging hubby will be an impossibility since he's not up to wandering around when tons of work is at his desk.

sigh. a month. against the heat. against boredom to the max. well, some things i could do are:
  1. make the HK video that's long overdue. =)
  2. get etisalat install the Al Shamil unlimited internet connection.
  3. make my blog projects.
  4. general cleaning of the house.
  5. bake?? =) or learn sewing? ok, ok. at least, learn how to turn the sewing machine ON. ;p
  6. enroll in French class. haha. i wish!
  7. take driving lessons (hmm... the last of the list though, since i have not convinced myself into doing (most appropriate word: financing?) this. well, not unless somebody will sponsor the fees for the lessons then i will be fully convinced. hehe).

well, as to how many of the items included in the list will get to be done is another question. =) let's see....
