Its Bloggy Time...

I know i'm a couple days late in writing this. But I have a pretty darn good reason for it - I had a job interview on wednesday, and then yesterday I got invited out with a friend.

My interview went well, so well in fact I got invited back in the afternoon for a second interview/trial!! Unfortunately I had to decline the job offer because it was just too far away. The job was for a promotions company. It took me about 3 hours to get home from where we were out in the "field". That included 2 trains, 1 bus, and a car ride home (it was meant to be 2 buses but by the time I got to the mall, my last bus had left - roughly about the time I got on the bus in the city) which sucked because I was told they ran until about 10pm but oh well.

Besides that things are going well, still sending my resume in anywhere and everywhere that I can. I was chatting to a friend last night who said she was doing everything I'm doing and it took her 5 months to find a job :( that was doing something minimum wage. So i'm going to keep at it.

Random piece of information - Fuel prices in NZ have hit NZ$2 a litre, and here in Aussie its not too far behind (its about AU$1.50 a litre in my area). How crazy is that? which of course means food prices are going to go up, i'm also thinking that they might put up bus ticket prices too. Where will it stop? Why aren't the governments stepping in and doing something about it? it really makes me worried about what things will be like in a year..let alone 5 years.

Alrighty, well I've gotta go make a few calls to places i'm hoping dad can drive me to today to drop off my resume.

Hey! It's nice to see you online. Gas hit 4.00 in Rib Lake. Can you believe it? Ugh. I should have bought that hybrid the last time I was car shopping.
