I have been home for awhile now and when I first got home it was all about the job search. So that took up a lot of my time. However, it seems that the job search was a little bit of a futile quest seeing as though most of the temp agencies didn't seem to have anything for me. They only had temp-hire positions (which obviously wouldn't work because I am moving back up to Fairfax in the middle of July) or they told me I didn't have enough experience. But just when I thought all hope had been lost... Protemps immediately found a job for me. The woman told me it was a temp-hire position but just not to mention that to the client. So I didn't and I assumed that I would be working there for awhile, possibly until I left to go back. But that excitement was short-lived because apparently I was either fired or somehow the client found out that I wasn't going to be there much longer. My theory is that they tried to offer me a full-time position (which they would've had to call the angency first) and then the agency was probably obligated to tell them when I was leaving. Well that is the story that I'm clinging to because, well let's face it, it's a lot easier on the ego to believe that then to just think I was fired. But I must say I was really thrown off by the whole thing - I left the office on Friday and everyone there was saying see you on Monday - and then BAM, don't bother showing up on monday they say. Anyways, now that I have gotten over that and I can rest easier at night, I am still jobless. Sad I know. So I think I'm going to start utting effort into finding a job at school because it's pretty much to late to be worrying about working at home. I only have 26 days left here. There really is no point.
Other than that, life at home proves to be pretty boring. SHOCKING I know. But I keep telling myself that it will be over soon and then the dreams of my fabulous apartment will finally be a reality.
I also wanted to take this chance to post some new paintings that I have finished... Both for my sisters for their birthdays. I like the way they turned out and I think I did ok with matching the concept to the sister. Well I at least tried to create something that would coordinate with their existing home decor. SO without further adieu...
You can also see these on my photo website which is a work in progress at the moment. I'm trying to put a lot of my photos up there so then it is easier to share with the fam and what not. The url for that site is just http://selena170.myphotoalbum.com
In other brief news... I really like Hilary Duff's new cd and especially this song... And if you want to hear the video than just pause the music on the side first.
That is all for now
Check ya later.
