its been ages since i last updated. i almost forgot that i had this blog.
currently, all job applications seem to be going downhill. scary interviews make terrible job offers, ie. none. considering how everything for the past few years have been 'mostly' smoothsailing. i can confidently say for all the travel disasters ive faced, i did miss out quite a gd set of bads ones.
ones tt i hit:
icelandic volcanic eruption (who knew they even had volcanos!)
london riots (didnt get caught but the atmosphere was really bad)
really stormy and blistering weather in NYC
Missed:
hurriance at NYC
getting caught in any major trouble (tube trouble aside)
On the upside, I know I have a really strong support group back home. Family and friends who listened to me grouse, complain and moan about the perils of being overseas, far from help. I am not alone, in all the things that I do. I neglect to understand that sometimes. Far from family doesn't mean that they support me any less. I need to remember that.
after living out for so many years, i realise that i really depend on them. how people manage to live years without seeing their parents previously, they have my respect. Skype has reduced the distance but made it all the more gaping.
I have no job offers now. but i will continue on because i know there are people who are looking out for me. giving up on myself is hardly the way to repay their efforts
