Joan the high flyer

  1. Since Monday, I’ve been at a training seminar. I’ve had fun learning, taking tests, eating catered food and hanging out with young environmental professionals from other companies. My company has paid the equivalent of half a semester’s university fees for me to attend the three day course. I hope I’m worth it!
  2. My university called me today to invite me to a breakfast function at the Hotel Sofitel. I get to hear a guest speaker and network with other university alumni.
  3. Motorola called me to tell me that I had won second prize for a random competition I entered last year.

    Joan,
    Congratulations!
    You are a winner of the GIRL CRAZY Competition.

    Your answer to, “What is the best thing about being a girl?”, was brilliant and has won you second prize which is a bag of L’Oreal products. The prize pack includes makeup, hair colour and skin care, to keep you looking your girly best.”

    I think I wrote something about beating the boys at their own games (engineering, skating etc.) while looking gorgeous, goregeous, I tells ya. Mmm, very silly and very marketable…
