End of the week/Beginning of New Week

Well its been a busy week and now the weekend has passed and we're going into the last week of the year. Its been a busy week and I've learnt more of the job I'm now doing, made some mistakes, mostly small and I admit I did make a bad mistake which I realise comes from me stressing about doing well in my job and as a result making mistakes. I've resolved to try and be less stressed about the job and just try and relax and be logical with it all. Apart from that work has been fine, feels like it goes very quickly from getting there to leaving.
Socially its been a bit quiet the last week or so, with working I haven't had time to really socialise. But in the last week or so, I've enjoyed my roommates birthday party which was a lot of fun, this last Thursday spent a bit of time with friends from the Ulpan celebrating their birthday, last night spent a few hours playing Fifa on the PS3... so out of practice on playing FIFA. Today I met with a friend for coffee as well so I'm getting out there, I still need to find the right balance in my life between social life and work. Got to remember yes I'm here to earn money, but I'm also here to build a life and meet people.. as they say I work to live, not live to work and I should remember that and not let myself dwell on mistakes at work. I need to move on and make sure I don't do them again.
Finally its going to be weird working over Christmas Day and Boxing day as they're not holidays here in Israel, it will be weird as I've never worked before on those days, so while everyone is tucking into their lunches Christmas Day I will be hard at work. Fortunately this week will only be 4 days as I have a friend from the UK coming to visit for 10 days so I will get to spend a few days with her. I am very excited to see her as it was the beginning of October 2011 the last time I saw her and it will be nice to catch up with a familiar face from back home.
