...but in summer. yep, it's that time of year again: when my otherwise disastrously messy room experiences a reshuffle, and for one precious week our lino floor is visible. as usual, though, i have more things than i can store, and i'm trying to get my desk out of my room; this will free up space, yes, but it means one less storage place for all my junk. woe.
on a lighter note, mel, marty and lint are coming back from the usa/europe tour on friday (which means i should be getting a phone soon *jabs lint in the side*).
and tomorrow is australia day. oh, wait, no, that's not really a light note, as i'll end up spending the evening at auntie carolyne's (not to be confused with cazza) with a bunch of people i don't know. not exactly my idea of fun.
and mel, if you see this, apparently _sir gadabout_ is coming back on.
mick reckons he's going to korea for something like a year, teaching english while he improves his film/tv portfolio. he didn't get into the australian film, television and radio school (they took on 6 people and he was no. 7), so he's trying again in a year. good for him.
meanwhile, i've decided that i'm not going to tafe this year, i'm going to take up an apprenticeship in the hospitality industry, hopefully chef-ing. mum approves, but dad's worried that i'm too hung up on studying coming straight out of school. he's got it all backwards - i'm doing an apprenticeship so i _don't_ have to study. whatever job i take on, i'll need training, so why not an apprenticeship? yes, i'll be mentored, but i won't really have homework, which is what usually let me down at school. okay, always let me down.
so i've applied at a few places, i even wrote cover letters. do you realise how hard it is to sing your own praises without seeming like you're in love with yourself? well, if you've ever written a cover letter and/or resume, you probably do. that's the hardest part, i reckon (but i haven't been to an interview, yet). and i have an interview this friday, for a casual job i applied for last week. if i get it, i'm not taking it, but i'm still going to the interview, because the practice will do me good, right?
enough boring drivel.
