A breath of air

Finally, first year of film school is done! However, my spring course is coming soon. In the meantime, I have just been hanging out with friends, and looking for jobs everyday. It's hard work, and my poor wallet could really use a job anytime soon.

That other food job never got back to me. I guess they aren't hiring anymore :( Or they didn't like my resume. I applied for a photography sales position the other week. Went to an interview for it, now waiting on them to get back to me, since the District Manager left while I was still doing my job shadow. I've got a few thank you notes for them. Hopefully it's not too late to deliver them... I should probably call them on Friday if I don't get a response, since I think the DM said she would be there. Or was it today? Ah, I don't know.

I am actively still trying to find suitable jobs for the spring/summer. If all else fails, I will apply for a sales position at an engraving shop. That could be fun! :)

Asides from job hunting, I was able to spend some much needed time with my friends. :) It's been a few years since I last spent some time with some of my friends, so it was really nice to see them this week. Makes me realize there is a reason to be happy still, because I also have them in my life. :) I haven't been the most suitable person to engage socially with for the past few years, so this has also boosted my confidence that I can still have fun with others, laugh, and have good conversation. :) However, a lot of stuff we do requires the spending of money... so for a few days I will refrain from social activities, and slowly try to accumulate my dollars to make amends for the next social occasion.

With the lack of a upass this semester, I have to start buying bus ticket books. These cost quite a bit and the use of each ticket is pretty frequent. On average, I use two a day, and there's only 10 tickets in one book... so I only have 5 days with the tickets, and then it's off to the store to go purchase a new set. Luckily, we live in a world of credit, and we are able to get some money back if we submit our receipts. I have never submitted the receipts for these purchases for my taxes, but I definitely will for the next tax year.... so that I can buy more booklets. T_T

For the next few days I think I should work on tidying up my room, do a bit of studying for Japanese, and also do some work ahead of time for my Spring course. Oh, and, do my volunteering. Ah... at least I can relax here and there more often! :)
