After a frustrating day…yet another. The afternoon has been good. After preparing and getting ready for this STUPID interview that JERK WONDER decided to cancel half an hour before it began on Monday, I arrived there after an hour on the bus (3 buses later) at Paddington only to be told by Manners Challenged Boy Wonder that he couldn’t do the interview. I was so close to punching him in the face and not feel any qualms about it. I was warned of RUDENESS in this place but that was UNBELIEVABLE. He held no remorse for the huge INCONVENIENCE. I was overwhelmed with
“Oh why I oughta…” before punching him in the face. GRRRRR!!!!
Anyways…I went back to the dorm where Eileen from reception pretty much got as wound up as I did when I told her about it. (I am in and out of that place so often that I have gotten familiarized with the staff) So I went back upstairs and got changed out of my ‘proper clothes’ and into my unironed (don’t tell my mother) cargo pants, shirt and jacket and headed for Leicester Square with every intention of making the day better by wtaching a play that I really wanted to see called Oleanna. I went to Leicester Square and lined up in one of those half price places and got a really good seat for half the price. I was syked. So after my Happy Meal (which I was craving for) I headed over to a CHEAPO internet cafe to check my e-mail for details on upcoming interviews….I have two tomorrow.
I digress…the play was AWESOME. Julia Stiles was really good and I loved it enough to look for the play at a book store once I have finished My Life – Bill Clinton which I am over half way to finishing. Seeing the play kind of reminded me of why I’m here. To see and do things, I can’t necessarily do if I am back home. I have plenty of others I want to see. Like We will rock you, Fame, When Harry met Sally, Phantom (again), Mamma Mia (again) and the girls want to see Les Mis but I don’t know if I can justify seeing it for like the fourth time. Twice in Sydney, and once in Broadway. We’ll see how the budget is.
I had a phone interview today which I am currently waiting it’s results. I felt my phone buzzing in my pocket during the play and I missed it…obviously!
In the last couple of days. The last 24hours in particular I have began to question whether or not I could really do this, and I gotta tell you, some days are so frustrating that I think packing it up, traveling the remaining days may be a good idea. But I decided I’m not ready to accept defeat just yet. I am however looking into checkking out France for a weekend just to get a taste of traveling. I have to make a decision by next week. If nothing looks promising, I may just jump on a train and travel with what I got. Then come back and try it all over again. We’ll see.
Well, tomorrow is another day. I have another interview with another Recruitment Agency, hopefully they’re a lot more helpful than the last one, instead of just being a bunch of snooty people. Then afterwards I have an interview with a Marketing Campaign, which sounds interesting…we’ll see what that entails.
Thanks for reading my babbles and what not. Hope all is well with everyone.
Take care and Love much…
