Jun. 5th, 2011 12:52 amI AM MOVING ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE NATION IN 28 DAYS.
I am so ludicrously stoked. The road to getting there has been seriously demented mostly due to the fact that I just cannot get a job. I've been rejected by Starbucks, McDonald's, Subway, the Canadian government (for three separate jobs! Customs, Immigration, and Census!), and so many more. I can only assume there are a lot of university graduates or highschool graduates postponing university to snatch the crap jobs away from those of us who are going back to school in the fall (I have been neglecting to mention my imminent move during interviews, which I don't even feel bad about given that BC has a three-month no-notice-or-cause-required trial period for employment whereby I could get fired at any moment for no reason anyway).
So, I'm still spreading resumes around, but it's looking like a thing that isn't going to happen. Which means my mom is going to float me for the next few months (and she's already been paying my credit card and phone bills since March), which I never intended and for which I feel like an enormous jerk. Shit has been awkward with my Dad as well, since I asked him if he'd pay for my ticket to and from Edmonton for my brother's wedding in August.
The non-leprechaun side of this rainbow is that my friend and future roommate, Liza, is in Halifax right now and has found us a lovely apartment for less than I would pay for a rat-infested crackshack in Vancouver, and it's less than two kilometres away from the school (that's little over a mile, btw). Having enjoyed riding the bus for an hour and a half (through four cities) each way to get to school, I am so indescribably delighted to live downtown. Even if it's down a much smaller town.
And to bring it down to shallow-land, where I reside: HALIFAX IS FULL OF SAILORS. !!! Their little outfits! :D :D :D
I am hoping so hard that I will be able to find a job in Hali. Economy. >:( Y U do this?
TWENTY-EIGHT DAYS! :D :D :D
