First level 11 meeting

I skipped gym in the morning today because I went back to sleep after waking up. This is probably the first time in a long time that I've missed a weekday morning gym session.

Work was kinda ok, spent most of my dad preparing for my hearing tomorrow, but also finishing off one of my first BAs on this level. There's lesser supervision than with Alanna, and I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. The good thing is that I have to rely more on myself, but the bad thing is there's no one to check if I'm wrong.

I only had $5 left in my wallet, and told myself I just needed to live in poverty until Thursday when I get paid. So I wondered what I could get as lunch for $5, and ended up going to Hungry Jacks for a stunner deal. I felt like having lunch by myself outside anyway.

After lunch, we had a meeting at 2pm. I decided now was the time to try to build some rapport with Steve, so I went to ask him if he was heading up, but he said he had a bit more to do first so I went up by myself. Despite being 1:55pm, I was the first one there and ended up walking around with Jennifer as we looked for the meeting room.

When the meeting started I thought it was a good opportunity to check everyone out in the same room. The vibe of the meeting was so much different. With level 10, everyone sat at tables organised in a rectangle in a large room, with Wendy A at the top, Wendy F to her side, with Wendy A speaking 'down' to us.

Maybe it was because we couldn't get a larger room, but here, we all cuddled up around two tables, with no real organisation as to who sits where, and Michael just cracking jokes as he went along, which made it easy for people to chip in their two cents as the meeting progressed.

I also sometimes stole glances at Christina. I have to admit I saw some potential in her. She came by today to ask me why I wasn't going to the christmas lunch and I said I had a hearing on. She still seems phoney, but I could be wrong and she is just bubbly. In any event, I noticed she had some pretty bad marks on her legs today, and she seems a bit like the bimbo-ish/lazy type. It makes me ashamed to think that I earn less than her.

The meeting also revealed a bit about the dynamics of this group and how each related to the other. Sarah and Gina seem to be the favourites. Melanie seems to be the quiet, jealous sister in the background.

After work, I went home and then jogged to the gym. Halfway there I realised my stuff was falling out of my bag because the zipper had opened. I looked back to see my wallet and gloves lying on the path. I quickly picked them up and was glad I had noticed, otherwise it would've been pretty bad.

Also, while I was at the traffic light before that, some drunk lady came up to me and started telling me how I should run. I thought it was funny how when the lights changed, I deliberately ran like how she told me not to, and I could hear her yelling in the background, lol.
