Tagged along with a colleague

About a week and a half ago I tagged along with a colleague who is working in the field of social support in the community. Most of her job is about applying the social support act with the 'needy / invalid' civilians (if that is the right translation). I tagged along because I think this might a field in which I am interested. I did enjoy this afternoon very much. It helped me widen my view on the field and to better understand it. It was very interesting. There is also adjacent field of social support about the 'work and social assistance act' (correct translation?) which I think I might also be interested in. So I am planning to ask another colleague if I could tag along with here as well. This all in my job- and my self-development search. Because I more and more feel there has to change something. I imposed a milestone upon myself to reach the two years at this employer (february 2015), because I am not a quitter. I can learn a lot from being in this position (both job-wise and self-development wise). It is almost October and I made a deal with myself to go and start tot do some serious job hunting in around January 2015. Not only because I want to work in the field of Public Health but also because my contract will most likely end in July 2015.

sleepover part 2

Last year we had our first sleepovers at grandma's. This year the family again divided some days the spent the night at grandma's while the two uncles are on holiday. Last night was my turn. Together with mom there were 3 generations of girls there. It was fun. My grandma can be a little baggy sometimes, but I hope she enjoyed having us. Hopefully we can still do it next year :)

A week off - tagging along with a colleague

Next week (including this friday) I am having the week off. So time for relaxing, some 'me-time' and doing fun stuff. I have promised myself to go shopping, to bake, to finish my photo book from our holiday last year and all that sort of stuff. 

Next to that I have asked a colleague if I could tag along one time. This is a colleague in a field of expertise which I think I am interested in as well. As I wrote about it earlier here in 2011 and here in 2012. That is how time flies. Wauw.  

My colleague's job is about social support in the community, public health. So much more oriented towards my master's degree at the university. As I work at a government organization we have HR as well as the social domain.Next thursday I am allowed to tag along with her for an appointment. I am very curious to see how this goes and if this does cover my interests. If so, I can start moulding my career in that direction.

Saying Goodbye

Today my friends and I went bowling en had some dinner. Kind of special today as a friend goes to Australia for sic months to a year and she is leaving this wednesday. Wonderful to imagine how she is going to explore the world for such a period of time. She is really looking forward to it, as this has been kind off her dream for a while now. But naturally she is a bit nervous. She is saying goodbye to lots of people now these past few days. Weird to imagine that it is (almost) september already. She told us her plans on New Years day when she stayed the night after New Years Eve. Well she had the plans, but they were becoming more concrete. And now only 3 days before she goed on her big trip. I wish her the most beautiful experience in travel, meeting friendly people and just have a wonderful time. 

Ciao!
