Office Politics

The past two weeks has been crazy at work. I am hoping that March would be a month that we catch up with everything. I know realize what my previous supervisor used to say, when she used to say that it's not the work that is difficult it is the office politics that slows things out.
After 9 month being in my position as a supervisor, I have made good allies but at the same time I can see that I have made a few enemies. The experience is really strange as I have never have been in a situation that some one viciously shows her jealousy toward me. I guess we will see in a few days how that rounds up to be!

I had my midterm last week and I think I have done well. I have to wait and see this Tuesday what my mark comes out to be. Yesterday, I went to one of my mom's relative's baby shower. It was fun. It's amazing, how much attention I get when I am with an older crowd! I actually enjoy their gatherings. I think the bottom line is in the attitude. I could have denied participation with activities like many of the girls around my age in that shower did or I could have come out of my shell and enjoyed my time there. The latter is the one I chose and I had a blast. Dancing and helping out with the host.
We are planning for our trip in May to Iran. I am looking forward to road trips in Iran and visiting the historical places and visiting the relatives.
