I am just organising a baby shower for the first time. I had no idea that there would be so much to it. I just thought it would be a cake, some nibbles, some wine and that would be it. However, I have been reading about them in magazines and it seems that the first thing is… to get, some baby shower decorations. There are some wonderful things available and so I am quite keen on this idea as I think it will be lovely to have everything looking good. I have also been looking into baby shower favors but I am not sure whether I will do these or not. It will really depend on how well my time and budget holds out during this planning process. I have organised a really lovely cake to be made at the local bakers and I think that it will be good enough with just a few triangle sandwiches and some other fancy cakes. I am now thinking about the presents and wondering whether to get her one of those diaper cakes and put it on the table instead of the real one as a joke for when everyone arrives. She has a great sense of humour so I think I could pull it off.

Being a student, while also somehow managing to keep a job is pretty tough. I say it from experience. It’s been a few decades since I had to joggle between these two key things. Once, I finished my studies I heaved a huge sigh of relief thinking that now I could concentrate on my personal & social life too, apart from doing job… day after day. Nonetheless, there have been marked changes in almost every technique that we use to conduct day-to-day business. Having finished my studies ages ago, I feel I need to refresh my knowledge with today’s updated contents. However, I don’t know whether I’ll be able to do justice to either of those two things i.e, job or studies… if & when I choose to do both. I have heard a few companies giving the option of study-leave to their employees. However, there’s no such thing in my company. Once we did get a week of computer training, so that we can become computer literates. However, even that was online training. So, it’s not as if I got the chance to go to a school or something. But therein lie’s my chance of studying new courses too. Maybe I should enroll for online training & see how it goes.
