Project Management

Growing up I have been introduced to Project management, through the work that I started by doing. when I was at university I did not know that there was a qualification that focused mainly on Project management. Here I was with my passion for, studying for a science degree in Nutrition. Don't get me wrong, I was fortunate enough to go to a very good girls school that offered us career guidance as well as counselling. I went through aptitude tests, personality tests etc, to try and figure out the route I should take. Luckily enough I had chosen the correct subjects , that could get me into any field of science that I wanted. My first choice being chemical engineering I decided to go with my second choice, which was more driven by passion, nutrition. the studies were great , I learnt a lot and gained more confidence in this field.

the work I started by doing was not related to nutrition but it had some aspects of it, but it was challenging!. there were time frames, deliverable and reports that had to generated. i had to learn fast, and I found myself enjoying the work. Working towards a purpose, a goal, a Milestone. I then started wondering, what could I do to help me understand this field better? I did my research and found a perfect course, a diploma in Project management! Winner. I was happy, from the beginning till the end. I had found my destiny!

Why do I say that, you may ask. Well here is the deal, I am a Capricorn lady. now if you have never come across a Capricorn lady or Man, I suggest you read up on them a bit. I am a strict individual, I have a great sense of urgency, I am focused and I like to see results. In everything. all aspects of life. Personal or Professionally. Give me a meaningful task, and I will run with it until it is thoroughly completed. Yes that's me in a nutshell. So are you surprised that i love this Project management field? I hope not. Lol.

I plan to learn more in this field , and i wish that during the time in high school when we were busy choosing our careers, something or someone could have just picked up my personality and figured that I would do great in this field. Oh well, we can't cry over that now but only be grateful that for as long as I am still alive there is a great amount of possibilities. and that wakes me up every morning, keeps me alive!

One day, I will be a great Project Manager for a great project that will change peoples lives. And that my friend is my utmost wish.

Happy Friday,

Salute <3

Weekend Blues...

The weekend is here!!.....yey! ok What next? I have no plans, nor do i have energy to cook up any. So I get a bbm from my friend asking to meet up for drinks afterwork, Im like well there comes a plan. Bring it on. She has to take a train from Centurion and im leaving from Midrand. Sandton is on my way home(no pun intended)  So its 4:30 and knock off time. Ibgrab my bags abd head to my car. Thep weather is gettung a bit gloomy, it drizzles for a bit but i continue driving. Before i take the Grayston off ramp i ask my friend how far she is, and oops she is still by the offuce since her lift to take her to the station is stuck in traffic.

A little worrying this, because im very clode to entering the Sandtin city parkjng lot. No i did not stop to text my friend, i know, bad driving manners. i am by tge parking lot entrance now and i have an option of going in or just heafing straight home. I get a text from my friend saying i mustnt go into sandton because it doesnt look like she will make it. I am a little disappointed, but i continue to fjnd parking. That proves to ve a difficult for a while abd i get slightly irritated. I park eventually and head to Woolies, there is currentky a sale and si I might find somethung to wear one day. I head straight there, whew tons of variety and so the browse begins. Until i get tired and all clogged up, i am not feeling well and my chest is acting up. I become uncomfortable and leave the shop. Im hungry too!! Goodness could my friday get any better. I spot Mcdonalds and head there for a Spicy cajun meal.

My chest! i need some meds and Clicks pharnarcy is right by the exit. i get assistance from a friendly pharmarcist, pay  for my meds and head to the parking lot. I spot an old school girl, greet her chat a bit and say my goodbyes. i drive off, hand in my fries packet, im starved. Driving and eating , yeah i love that. Guilty pleassure. two bites of the burger and i am Not convinced! You would think only great qulity came from Sandton, well i guess Not.

get home, burger half eaten, fries almost finished. Hobo living this iv swear. With not much to do i change into my pjs, Tv never disapooints. Line up: #Generations, #Tempy Pushas, #LiveAmp.....that should keep me going, right?

oh yes I do watch SABC shows, taboo as it may seem to others. I pay my Dstv and Tv license subscriptions.

Dosed off after my tv shows, with bbm chats in between from my friends.

and so my weekend goes....
