Hi, I'm brand spanking new to HOP, never even new it existed until I stumbled upon it recently. Only just starting to get my sea legs as far as the technology thing goes. Just typed poi into a search engine and BAM, Here I am. And right glad I am too. Been spinning for years on and off, started in South Africa and the enthusiasm kinda waned once I got to the UK and refused to leave the warmth of indoors for months. Years later I am regaining my passion and learnig to accept that 26 degrees celcius is warm.
Think Hop is amazing, looking forward to learning and living and loving and growing.

Manic! My boss isn't in today so all attention has turned to me, and 1) One of my clients is in as we are due to go live on oursecond dataset today...asking questions, putting in requests...generally keeping me very busy. 2) On my other campaign we are having problems importing data and we have 20 kiddies on stand down waiting for the data (which we should have recieved last night)and everyones running around trying to sort it out.
I know that probably doesn't make sense, but it's all gone a bit crazy. I'm not too stressed though. I finish in an hour...the day hes just wizzed by

Tired. But had a very successful weekend
On Friday I went out and saw some friends, but didn't go overboard and went to sleep around sunrise. Saturday I decided to not answer my phone and watch movies and cook! And Sunday I made a new friend How about you?
