Graduate Orientation

I was 30 mins late than normal (because my graduate orientation started later than my office hours) and my bus dropped me at an unusual place, but guess what? He and I still run into each other at this ramdon place which I have never passed normally to go to work! I started wondering whether or not he put a GPS device on me to track me down whenever he feels like!! Very spooky!!

The orientation was very informative and fun today. I got to network with a lot of ppl and I really enjoyed meeting different ppl from other offices around NZ and Australia. The dinner went spectacularly well especially after a couple glasses of wine, ppl were getting too friendly. The name tag swapping made my reputation over the top! Ppl had this astonishing expression on their face when they found out my real name. They all went "Right!! So you ARE the Anita Lin!!", which made me a bit worried. Meanwhile, the other Anita Lin was trying to kiss the other guy and introducing himself to everyone he met, including the doctors passing by our restaurant in Ponsonby! Everyone knows my name now, which I am still unsure whether it's a good thing or not. I really hope my name is not going to make the headline tomorrow. However, I don't really care, as I actually enjoy my 15 mins fame. It probably has something to do with me being tipsy :) I better go to bed now before I wrote down all the dodgy stories :P
