Hi every one, how's it going? Yup it's already been a week since i started my new Job as an illustrator and frankly, i have not felt so happy to be at such a place.
I thought at first that it would be more like, how do i put this...like a drag in a way thinking you just go work no interaction nothing. but NO completely opposite
the people there are SOOOO nice! My boos is exceptional. She's such a nice compassionate person and really cares for her employees.

My first day was a bit complex so to speak, i still was getting over my cold and the night before i had so much jitters that i couldn't sleep well. So i got early and i had most of my documents that i needed to give in to human resources dept. and so i was given the paperwork and contract to make me official. Being a Temp, well my contract is only till the 30th of August and my minimum is $6.55 an hour but im still happy and thankful of getting this opportunity.

well, i had one document missing, it was my health certificate and i explain that my doctor was on vacation last week, so they asked if i wanted to retrieve it that morning, so i did since his office was near by. I was still feeling short of breath and feeling like i was gonna have a asthma attack so i was kinda glad i was going the doctor's, he checked me out and made my certificate and i was back at the office around 12pm.
I asked my boss to show me where is my station and what i had to do, so she did. at the moment there a deadline for a work book for children for the 30th of July an she said that most of the images are gonna be recycled in form others books they had made so, my job if to look through 5 books and mark the image and if there isn't a image that can be used i would have to make it form scratch and finalize it in illustrator. So i have to make the proper sketches and have to review it with the editor and then i review it with my boss (the art director)

In a day i manged to review the images, write down with ones to be used and sketch out what is necessary for 5 chapters and they loved my sketches! and better yet no one asked for changes. then between the end of Wednesday till Friday i was working on digitizing chapter 2 and so far everything is going great. I love my co-workers they are ALL awesome people and really sweet and funny OMG!! so funny XD
i was dragged to lunch on friday to celebrate my boss' birthday form the art dept. it was a surprise party too, it worked cos she didn't suspect a thing Cx and usualy my lunch break is form 12:30 to 1:30, we whined up staying till 3pm
XD So cool! hehehehheh it was a great time.

Honestly i really love this job so far, i really hope i can get a more permanent placement in the future. My father has been so happy and supportive for me and so have been all of my friends...but my mother... :/ different story. She says she's happy for me, but all i get is her depressed, looking pitiful upset every time i come home form work, also picking fights when all i wanna do is tell her about my day and rest and relax and take in all the good feeling i get form being at the job and i guess i can't do that so i have to keep it to myself.

She's acting like a spoiled 7 year old craving attention even if it is negative and to just push my buttons. I swear there's been moments that i don't even wanna come home.
I'd stay close to my job or live in the office than come home. I've lost all respect for my mother. i really thought she'd be proud of me and happy to see me group up and work where i've always wanted to but i know doesn't care :__(

well thats all i gotta say sorry if i've not been online as much and i'll be working on commissions shortly so no worries i got a list and checking it twice

but thank you all for reading. *hugs* and miss you all.
