I can't believe it never occurred to me before now to use an employment agent. having someone who you don't have to pay whose job it is to find you a job. brilliant. i like the job i'm doing now and i toyed with the idea of staying, but i've decided i won't accept such a small salary and i'm shooting for something higher. i just hope i can find something that's interesting and busy, where the days will pass quickly and i won't want to die of boredom. *fingies crossed*
i got my first paycheque yesterday and man oh man was that satisfying. i'm so excited at the prospect of financial independance. responsibility is kind of an exotic concept for me at this point. I'm sad that I had to give up the ghost and accept that our awesome outdoor adventure plan for next summer (that plan being to kayak all the way to alaska) is way way out of my financial grasp. it makes me extra sad 'cause such an adventure with two of my very very favourite people would have been the experience of a lifetime. ah well. i have a whole lifetime to have those adventures i guess.
patience is a virtue that i'm really lacking. i kind of want to work on it this fall... i think worrying less would make me a lot happier. and a lot less tense.
i would kill for a good massage right now. well, maybe just maim.
