Refocusing

After landing a sweet job with a great marketing company in June, I then quit in September as the sweet job became a mind numbing call centre job for an IT company. Yep, same job, but somehow over 3 months, the job turned from Yeah! to Get me out of here!

So I did. I handed in my resignation, finished off my two weeks, and got the hell out.

Then I landed another sweet job- at Luna Park.

One week in, so far so good, well as good as carni's can be expected. I get screaming kids onto rides, spin them around fro two minutes, hope they don't vomit, then let them off again. All the while getting paid $20 an hour to do it.

But throughout all of this, I have been informed that I can graduate. I will receive a Bachelor of Arts, Media and Communication (Journalism) for three years of hardly much at all.

I just wish they could've helped us actually get a job. Somehow, just because I will have an official bit of paper, I don't think that makes me any closer to landing my dream job in journalism.

I am currently applying for a cadetship with the ABC news team, something I might label as pretty damn close to my dream job.

In the meantime, it's back to the carnival for me.

The one thing that I remember through it all, just keep saving, cos soon I'll be spending it on sangria and tapas in dive bars in Spain..

I keep visiting the airline website to book my flight to Spain and getting to the credit card details page, then chickening out. I need to know I am making a good decision, that I will be happy in Spain.

Who am I kidding, of course I will be! Book it!!
