me me me
So I finally finished the cv and cover letter. Why did it take so long? First, when I dont think myself capable of something my first instinct is to put it off. Some things that other people find so simple give me such a hard time.
I HATE asking for help and I HATE taking criticism. Two traits that wont get me very far in life. Im working on it. So when I finally decided to ask for help I got all manner of advice. Add this, no... don't add that. make it concise, no put in everything. Two pages maximum, no its not about length its about selling yourself.
so i took a bit from everyone and some from the internet and i came up with my own thing.
its decent. i only let my fam see it. cant take scrutiny from anyone else.
I know I could do well in an interview but i wasnt exactly ms extra curricular activities when i was in tnt. last thing i wanted to do was be in the student association. Because if i had to tell those old goats at UWI what I thought about the way they ran that Vet School I would have been Pulic Enemy #1. All i wanted to do was come home and sleep. I'm paying for it now. The thing is I know Im good at what I do. SO in all honesty I could be an asset to a vet clinic here.
Now to wait.... and come to grips with the possibility that I might be rejected. if all else fails i wouldnt mind working t the GAP. can we say employee discount?
In less serious news, My hair doesnt frizz here so i can wear it in cutesy styles AND it looks like I might be losing a bit of weight. Alcohol is the devil I tell you!
oh yeah and bashment pinky was caught in the act again. i wont say where but i'll give you a hint... it has something to do with a boat and excessive alcohol consumption. Good thing I was behaving myself.
out on the town again.
who knew window shopping could be so much fun

Living Life A Cappella - aint a thing wrong with not having a beat
So while lil sis goes off to work Ive been pottering around the house, cleaning and cooking and sleeping of course. Considering its only 6 rooms and only two people to cook for those activities didnt keep me very occupied. Today I made the decision to venture out on my own. I walked all the way to the City Centre. Its about a 25 minute walk. Looked around at some stores. bought myself some cocoa butter and sushi (not at the same time of course) and walked back home very happy for the time out and the exercise.
random: im going to have to trade in that palmers for some body shop mango butter. my skin needs extra emollient.
the extreme pleasure i get from eating sushi cant be normal.
im not as invisible as i thought i was. i can still command a bit of attention.
oh yeah and Wedding Crashers is laugh out loud, insanely funny. i didnt expect so much from it after watching the trailer. Talk about not doing a movie justice.
i love running through the rain.
still enjoying being alone

So This Is What They Call Summer
what a joke. Winter is going to kick my ass.
Im in Leeds and its chilly. but nobody aint tell me open up my window for fresh air! I finally made it here after more travelling with a heavy ass suitcase. i wont complain though. It's all behind me. But Im never moving again. Im going to stay in this apartment for the rest of my life. Moving is my least favourite thing to do in the whole world.
So far Im really liking Leeds. What little I saw last night in the taxi ride from the train station looked very metropoitan. Other than that i havent seen anything other than the apartment. Neeks did a great job picking this out. Newly done bathroom and kitchen and a spacious bedroom... thats all I need but theres also a nice living room as well.
anyways my big sis has started nagging me about getting a job... steups. yuh would think thousands of miles would give me some ease from all that.
off to create a resume.... this should be fun. grumble
