Valentines

So as you know by now, I am out of a job, due to my own choice, but being my turn to do something for valentines this year, I was crapping myself. So finally I found something that was affordable and still fun to do. I organised a sunset hike up Klapmuts hill (a hill in the Stellenbosch wine lands) and a picnic at the top. I thought it was great! Hiking up through the vineyards reminded me of Spain again. I so desperately want to be back in Spain walking the Camino. And your back in the room. So the evening was great as we had a nice picnic on the hill with very sweet J C Le Roux sparkling wine, vomit! Walking back we walked in the dark with torches. I hope T enjoyed it as much!

My piece of joy.

As part of my quest to stay out of jail due to bad debt, I joined a casting agency as an extra. We shot an ad for M&M's today where we were in a park and then hundreds of bouncing egg shaped M&M's falls from the sky. It was so much fun. I felt like I was in my own version of the Bravia tv ad with all the colourful councy balls. This was during one of the breaks after all the balls had been dropped. It was great! Even if my neck got crispy-fide and it wasn't fantastic pay.

Its been a long night

Last night we went for prawns (not the District 9 type) at 2 friends place. Tristan had maybe one glass of wine too many, and we only left at about 1 am. Roughly 4 hours past his bed time. So today he is passed out on the couch. I am not sure what Lucca's season is!

One week on

So today it has been a week since I resigned, and I have still not found a new job. Its getting very stressful now, and I am not sure what to do. I need to get a job right now because I have bills to pay, however, the only thing I find myself applying for is for sales jobs again. The problem is however much I hate it, I need to do something while I study to get into the Ad industry. I could just not be at my previous job for much longer. So now I am just applying for anything, and when I hear the job, my stomach turns again because I know I am going to be in the same situation of hating what I am doing and be there for who knows how long. I feel like sitting in a corner and just fading away. The end of the month is drawing near and I am still a sales rep. Other than sales, I don't know what to do. I have to work to pay for studying. Its all a little crap right now.
