Time: 11:37pm
Mood: Sad
Song of the moment: Beck - Guero
All my housemates are gone except for one. Rosie decided to leave today, so now I feel sad because I feel like I'm all alone now. I don't even know when I'll see my old roomies again (well for Kathy that's easy... I'm probably going to see her tomorrow! haha).
So I applied to a job today, the first of probably many applications I wil be sending out (if I don't get too lazy). It's actually a company I had worked for during one of my co-op work terms. The company has been doing a project with my supervisor, and a few months ago two of the company's big project leaders was taking a lab tour while I was running an experiment. I saw them and I recognized them immediately so I started talking to them. Apparently they remembered me! So during the next few months (this is according to my supervisor) they've been asking about me and my progress with my project. So my supervisor told them I was almost done my degree, and asked if they wanted to see my resume. They said yes! So I sent it off today.
I must admit, I'm a little nervous. Not about whether I will get a job with them or not. I'm nervous about working. It's part of the reason why I decided to continue with school.. I just wasn't ready to work. I'm not sure if I'm ready to work, but I know I don't want to do more school. Come to think of it, I don't think I'll ever be ready to work. As I pressed "send" to submit my resume, I heard myself saying "Hello the-rest-of-my-life!". Am I ready for a 9-5 job? Am I ready for getting my ass up every morning and join hundreds of my fellow commuters on the congested roadways? Am I ready for office politics? All I know is, I'm ready to make money.
So do you think panhandling is a good profession?

For sure it is. When I sit down in the food court at Eaton Centre I can see many deaf, mute, lost students working. The question is... what kind of people will these students who intentionally mislead to get $0.25 or even $1.00 become?
Sounds like you really have a good chance with this company. Work it, working full time is actually fun when you learn to adapt your routine. You life becomes more settled but the types of activities you can do opens up. Call me ;)
hey girl... enjoy your carefree life while you can... or else, you'll be like me.... work, work and work... *sighs*
Hey, can I panhandle w/ ya? ^^;;
