December
C can you believe it? It’s already December !!! *hufffff* Time flies when you’re having fun ~ At the moment I’m very busy with classes, work and spending most of my free hours in Second Life
I always thought the hours I spend in SL where somewhat crazy, but the hours I’m putting in now are truly insane *gulp* Starting up a business in SL takes up a lot of time, but still … it’s so much fun! I think it’s interesting that you’re able to learn much about management, networking and PR while investing only a few euro’s
And I love to see people enjoy something I worked on even if it’s pixels or bits & bites.
Works is going pretty well, but last friday was serious hell
The lottery had send out a letter with faultive information and a lot of people called in to check on their account and were worried or seriously pissed off. In the end we worked through close to 3500 phonecalls, mostly dealing about that one letter
But hey I know it’s part of the job and after that day I only have more respect for my job and my colleagues. When faulty letters go out or we get bad publicity and people call in we get hit with the first wave - sorta. Some outbound callers make jokes about inbound callers, but inbound callers are pretty cool because we defend the lottery and of course help our customers
:twinkle: Ehehehe ~
Currently my parents and sister are on a vacation to Java & Bali
lucky people. They will be away for 3 weeks or so and I kinda miss them. I already talked to them on the phone and received an e-mail, but I wish I was with them. Due to classes in Amsterdam I haven’t been able to go on a holiday with them because the timing was off *sigh* Next year it’s my plan to take more short trips e.g. a weekend London or Frankfurt. My mom and I are planning a week Paris so I’m looking forward to that :saylove:
Hmm, makes me wonder …
What would you like to do different in the year 2008 ?

Een eigen bedrijf in Second Life? Cool
Minder dat je niet met je ouders mee op vakantie kon maar allemaal korte weekendjes is ook leuk!

At least playing Second Life is better than playing the Sims (like me) because then at least you’re interacting with other people.

Wowl… 3500?? I would be so sickened to see that or to have to deal with that. You’re a brave soul to continue and get through that!
Lol yes by golly it is December finally!!

You know, I never really got into Second Life…
…I would like to actually properly apply myself to my studies in 2008…

What I like to do different in 2008 ?
A couple of things I guess…
One of them is making one person the most happiest one in the world
Another one is making our business rise and famous…

I should probably never get into second life, I’d probably get pretty obsessed ^^; it sure sounds fun though…
good job on getting through all those calls, really. Bet it wasn’t the easiest time ^^;
a week in Paris would be awesome! you can stuff me in your bag and take me with you, right? ^o^

Your job sounds like it’s nerve-racking at times, I wish you luck!
Traveling is so much fun, and very exciting. I would be so jealous to watch my family go away on an awesome trip like that without me! At least you have some nice little trips in store for the coming months
